potential lost and totally overrated
This is going to be shortto start with, what kind of bombastic and annoying drama is this!! yes it had an originally good storyline but what happened?
poor execution and prolonged story, to let people know in case they think I'm being bias,I know not a single actor or actress in this dramas so consider this me being honest.
they should have wrapped this up at S1 cos S2 is just like looking in a mirror with utterly frustrating inconsistencies,the almighty naksu completely became powerless and the ML now became so powerful,I thought this drama would be more focused on soul shifting plus the horrible sidelines and the incomplete stories.
to wrap it up,the story with so much potential became completely unsatisfactory, and it has a 9 out of 10 rating!!! what!! without playing favorite this is over the rooftop overrated

FATAL flaw in the story about the two main protagonists
S2 was an absolute disaster. It has MANY flaws.They should have ended up in S1, because S2 has a fatal flaw in the story about the two main protagonists, and I'm not talking about the actors, but the script created a few episodes after it started.
The script was changed about halfway through the story.
The story died very prematurely.
S2 It had a lot of potential but the sisters ruined it. I hope the actors have better scripts in the future.
It's sad, because the S2 could have had the epic romance.

Truly disappointed with what they did to ML and FL
The way the relationship between ML and FL was made surprised me completely in the negative. At least they could have kissed for the first time after their identity was revealed. It would have been much more beautiful. It looks like ML is dating another woman when his heart obviously belongs to someone. Thinking that ML may have just been a man who said he would love only one person, but ended up falling in love with another. Sad, but these things happen. -he didn't know it was Naksu until he saw the eyes mark-.There were so many ways to do that..... There are other problems here that I noticed, but ok.
In my opinion, I wanted ML had stayed true to his love for mudeok until the end. Than to see him basically move on............... :(
This show surprise me of how we can have such different perspectives.

If you like overpowered main character, this is for you!
Pros:- Jin Bu-yeon (with Naksu's body) is the prettiest sageuk character ever.
- Season 2's plot is much easier to understand (only if you've watched season 1 lmao)
- More romance scenes, depict Jin Bu-yeon's ethereal beauty.
- More epic fighting scenes.
- Overpowered Jang Uk and Jin Bu-yeon.
- Not only just the main characters, one of the side characters is overpowered too.
- Comedy represents anywhere, anytime. Like, in serious scenes, the comedy comes out of nowhere 😂 (kudos to the Prince)
Cons:
- It's hard to tell whether it's Jin Bu-yeon or Naksu.
- No more Mudeok's scenes :(

Fun, enticing but has inconsistent pacing
S2 was good. it could've been better. With a story like AOS, you can go so many places but th writers repeated plotlines the endings of all characters were rushed. it started strongly but it faltered by the end. But Aos has some of my favourite kdrama characters ever written, they are morally grey and selfish, also they have interesting arcs ( that also weakend by the end). i dont know what seo yul's purpose in S2 was but. despite all that, it was wonderful. the cgi was great, the acting was impeccable. Again it could've been better.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
EPIC! The best historic drama for me.
This drama was the first historic drama that I watched completely because I always felt that historic dramas are slow and mostly have sad endings so I avoided watching them and dropped them in between but luckily I gave this one a chance and I am not regretting it a bit!!Season 1 still has my heart but Season 2 was great as well. I feel a little greedy to ask for more end scenes but whatever they gave I am absolutely happy with that also.
I will always be a shipper of FM and ML from season 1 ..maybe that’s why I wished that they could have given atleast one scene to the season 1 FM.
Like everyone is saying that they wanted to see Naksu fight in season 2 the same is what I feel but still I understand that they wanted to project two different kinds of personalities in both the seasons. All the questions that I read in comments after watching each episode as they released they were answered somewhere or the other which made me believe that they purely wanted to make the audience happy and satisfied with this drama and leave no regrets.
One of the best dramas that I have watched in a while and I hope we get to see the cast together somewhere in other dramas.
Everyone’s acting was amazing and natural.
All the best to the team and Thanks for creating this drama <3

The casting and the graphics used were too awsm
It's so good K-drama I just need another season which will further extend the story where NAKSU / JIN BU YEON finds the relics and JANG UK will capture them and new world arises with new enemies / monsters. Damn good casting. Comedy with crown prince is too cringe.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
An WONDERFUL MASTERPIECE OF 2022&2023
The show may started without much fuss or hype but it created massive waves with new faces ,by giving chance by acknowledging their talent and they definitely haven't let down. S1 OR S2 both have pros and some cons but if you ask me if its worth to watch it and i can say ur time won't be wastedActing of leads was definitely good and change in female lead is understandable JSM played a strict teacher who cares and loves his pupil,while being ruthless and agonizing over love and revenge,while S2 GYJ played a innocent soul who loves her husband and persistent in her love with man with no heart and after all challenge and success choose to sacrifice herself for the world (world where he lives) and LJW showed what a man can become if he puts his mind, Hardwork, dedication ,and strong will to achieve a goal, and how to love someone with no heart in S1 and how live to with hope and how to be responsible, how not give in to darkness
Other characters was all played so well because we don't even remember some supporting characters name in some dramas but here every one is memorable
STORY IT definitely the best of 2022&2023 don't know if we can get good drama in future but this drama will be remembered whenever we think of 2022 it was a mix of comedy, romance, action, thriller there may some cons but it's only visible if we wanna nitpick about it and Music is pleasing to ear both s2 & S1 RE-WATCH VALUE IS 100%

Brilliant cast and edge of your seat suspense
The emotional rollercoaster this show has taken me on has been spectacular! Though the second part was a tad slow at first, the writers managed to keep us in suspense until the very last 2 episodes on how everything will come together. So for those watching and worrying, just sit back and let go of your anxiety and have fun with every moment.Go Youn Jung had very big shoes to fill after Jung So Min charmed us with her sass and wit in season 1. But this season is not about the actress replacing the other. It is about growth and change. What you will get it hints of the same character yet different. And the main moments are the chemistry between the male and female lead. We also see hints of the special connection she has with the other male characters.
Crown Prince Go Won has been a lovely character once again. And Jin Mu has been the bad guy this show needed.
The only flaws with the show are the slow momentum, much less action and CGI. However, the ending will still leave you satisfied.
The OST of this show is one of the best! I can listen to it on repeat endlessly.
This show is worth rewatching and probably one of the few shows that I actually went back and saw multiple times in the process of waiting. Will definitely recommend it and whoever I did recommend the series to, have thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope you do too!

One of my all time favorite dramas
I'm not ready to let go...Impressive how much this story touched me and how important these characters became to me.
I think that in the end that's what matters, the power that fiction has to make us dream and hope. So, even with the slips that occurred along the way, Alchemy Of Souls remains special.
I won't go into too much detail about what bothered me, especially in this second part, but I can say that I wasn't satisfied with the direction of the lack of memory plot. I also thought that the secondary characters and plots were poorly utilized, but the Hong sisters were lucky enough to create two great protagonists and they made up for what wasn't well worked.
And there's also the ending. We were all desperate, it's true, we thought it would be a tragic ending full of tears, but I'm so happy that it was the opposite, I couldn't be more satisfied, therefore, the taste that remains in the end is the best possible.
Jang Uk and Cho Yeong, thank you for being amazing and thank you to the entire cast, crew and production for bringing us this drama that will surely go down as one of the most important dramas ever produced...
I will miss you!

Lacks impact and lore
If you’re in it for the world building, you will find this sequel to be entirely unimpressive. Light and Shadow is filled with parallel scenes from the first season, and while the interactions and appearances of our favourite characters are fun, the lack of fantasy elements which the first part had is missing in this one. A lot of the story revolves around the amnesia plot which gets too dragged after a point. The whole soul switching but single body element with Master Lee making episode wise appearances to give us cryptic comments was frustrating. The main antagonist remains from the first season, but he’s really not that smart or amazing to be taken as a real foe for our leads. The story could have been much shorter because by the time we get to the actual lord part, it’s just a rushed closure.Overall it doesn’t quite live up to its initial promise, but is a decent watch if you decide to give up on consistency. The best parts about this drama was the acting and the interactions, could have been amazing but falls short of it.
