BEST DRAMA TO EVER WATCH
I’ve watched over a 100 kdramas and when I tell you guys this is the best drama I’ve ever watched I’m not over exaggerating, starting from the insane chemistry between lee jae wook and jung so-min and how chaotic their relationship is then the visuals of the whole cast, the script is written perfectly it has the best mix of drama/funny/action moments , I just love ittt. even though I love aos as a whole season 1 will always have a special place in my heart, I’m a big mudoek fan and I just love the storyline in the first more than. the second however both are amazingVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Automatically Became my Top Drama
My confession: I started watching this drama because I had nothing else to watch after binging Vincenzo, and I couldn't find a drama to overcome my slump. Therefore, I had low expectations and thought I would drop it after the first episode. (I thought it would be another overhyped drama.)However, it is NOT. I think I fell in love with everything about this drama. I enjoyed Jung So Min's acting in Because This is my First Life, and was surprised to see her in such a different role. However, she absolutely blew my mind. Watching the behind the scenes of her in fighting scenes was so cool because she moved so fluidly with the sword. No one could've been a better Mu Deok than JSM!! I also want to bring praise for Lee Jae Wook; this was my first drama with him as the lead. I think he suits Jang Uk so much, and he did a great job portraying sunshine Jang Uk, and in the second season with dark Jang Uk.
I honestly don't know why I doubted this drama. I love magic and fantasy dramas (like the Untamed and Who Rules the World; they're both C-Dramas). I am happy that Korea is starting to do more fantasy-related dramas that aren't in the modern setting. Daeho, being a fictional country gives more room for creativity rather than the Joseon era or a modern-day setting.
Additionally, the OSTs for this drama are so heartfelt. "Just Watching You" and "Scars Leave Beautiful Trace" are two of my personal favorite OSTs; they just add to the emotions.
If you are looking for a drama that will pull on your heartstrings, keep you on your toes, fascinate your soul, and make you laugh at the right time, then watch Alchemy of Souls!! And watch the second season as well. Although I will be watching the finale for it tomorrow, I am sure the ending will be fitting. Although, I am hoping for a happy one after all of Uk and Yeong's suffering... have hope :)

Um dos melhores dramas de fantasia já lançados.
Que drama incrível foi esse. Fiquei receosa de começar esse drama já que não me agrada muito dos efeitos especiais que os dramas nos trazem, mas ESTE AQUI, é outro nível.Além de ter uma história totalmente intrigante e inovadora, nós trás uma incrível cinematografia e original soundtrack. Todos os efeitos usados nesse drama foram muito bem feitos, e eu simplesmente não esperava isso, pra ser sincera, estava esperando uns efeitos meia boca que me lembram bastante os efeitos finais de Hwayugi.
Porém, me surpreendeu o trabalho bem feito que fizeram nesse drama, com certeza em questões de cinematográfia esse se tornou um do meu top 10, de tão incrível que esse dorama foi.
A história entre Naksu e Jung Uk, fez a história se tornar ainda mais intrigante e romântica. Afinal, uma assassina perdendo os poderes e se apaixonando pelo bonzinho engraçado? Só aqui mesmo.
O drama trás uma humor cômico para aliviar a tensão durante sua exibição, o que faz gostoso de se assistir afinal você não fica apenas intrigado, mas também se diverte assistindo.
Gostei muito do trabalho que fizeram com os vilões, principalmente a Xamã Choi e o Jin Mu, que estou preocupada ainda pois desconfio de tudo e todos em relação à essa magia das trevas deles.
Uma coisa que eu fiquei encantada também, foi a forma bonita que retrataram a amizade dos famosos "4 Estações", é uma das poucas amizades que você percebe um triângulo amoroso e no final ele continua bem, entendo o sentimento de cada um. Achei muito bonito como demonstraram o amor deles.
Estou bem ansiosa para assistir a segunda temporada para ver como será retratado esse final aberto que primeira temporada nos deixou.
Tenho até algumas dúvidas, como:,
1. Quando o Jin Mu irá morrer? (torcendo por isso)
2. O Master Lee irá encontrar um amor? (espero)
3. Quantos casamentos teremos na segunda temporada?
4. A So-I, o que acontecerá com ela? Ela irá voltar e ficar com o Seo Yul? (tô torcendo para esses dois)
5. Pelo o que parece a Naksu está em seu corpo original, então como ela conseguiu isso se ele foi queimado no início do drama?
6. O príncipe herdeiro irá se tornar mal? (Tenho esperanças que não, estou pensando que ele é um amor.)
Espero voltar aqui para responder todas esses perguntas quando terminar a segunda temporada.
Se você ainda não assistiu e está lendo isso, leia, com certeza você não irá se arrepender. Não é um drama só hypado, ele é, mas com motivo. É magnífico! ?

É tão bom que até dói!
E se existisse a possibilidade de trocar as almas?Duas semanas que podiam ser reduzidas a uma mas muita coisa a acontecer, não queria terminar demasiado rápido porque estava a gostar da história e das personagens e agora já não tenho todo o tempo do mundo para isto.
A história é interessante, as personagens são perfeitas e os momentos hilariantes são aos montes (com hilariantes quero dizer fora da caixa). Fiquei on até ao fim, mas tenho muito medo da segunda temporada, acho que, nesta situação, era desnecessária, mas Netflix wants money...
(Entretanto, já me disseram que vale a pena, que é meio que um spin off sobre certas personagens e a história delas, por isso farei uma review à parte)
Props para a Ari, pois sou uma Miracle e não fazia a mínima ideia que ela fazia parte do elenco.

The best historical kdrama out there.
I do not even know how to describe my love for this kdrama. One of the best historical kdramas I've watched ever. Like argue with the wall no other kdrama will replace my number 1. This kdrama is the most beautiful kdrama I've ever watched. The casting, the ost's, the acting, the whole story. Like these are the kind of kdramas we get when writers think out of the box. I have rewatched this several times and cried laughed had the same reactions as I did the first time I watched it. I don't think I can compliment this kdrama enough. This is truly a masterpiece and I don't think I will get over it. I still remember waiting impatiently every weekend to watch this. Recommend 100% trust me you can not go wrong with watching Alchemy of souls.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
un drama incroyable
Au début j’ai eu peur du côté fantastique que les coréens font h24 mais ne mettent pas en valeur.Honnêtement ce drama est largement au dessus de mes attentes, de la saison 1 à la saison 2, chaque personnage est merveilleusement présenté, l’histoire nous tient devant l’écran toute la nuit!
Seo Yul c’est un Green flag total en passant, c’est trop une pépite.
Les cinématographies sont magnifiques, l’histoire aussi bien drôle que dramatique donne envie de passer à l’épisode suivant et que ça ne s’arrête jamais!
ps : prenez des mouchoirs si vous le regardez
un bon 10/10 largement mérité

Worthy to watch.
I was hesitant to start this drama since its release, and only until now I decided to give it a chance. I know it is loved by many and I think I can understand why, including the very interesting universe created, the characters and the story. However, I consider that some small things could have been better executed, starting with its length. I must clarify that here I will only talk about the first part.First of all, regarding the acting, I think it was mostly good, the actors and actresses managed to do a good job. I admit that at the beginning the performance of the female protagonist did not convince me, her 3 or 4 face expressions did not make me connect with what she was trying to convey, but later on I developed a liking for her performance, no shame to the actress, I think it had more to do with the direction.
Regarding the universe created I think it is quite coherent and although at times it seemed to break its own rules for the convenience of the plot, they managed to give it a more or less good justification. And in this aspect I would like to highlight the CGI and the effects, which in my opinion were quite good and the budget used is understood. Budget that seems to me that was too little for the costumes, because although I am not a person who is fixated on clothes, I did not like the costumes in this drama.
Now regarding the chemistry between our leads, I think at some point it seemed to come out of nowhere, from the beginning we knew they would be together but the build up of their relationship was not what I expected, I even came to think there was more chemistry between Mu-deok and Seo Yul.
Something to mention, talking now about the length of the drama and also the length of the episodes, is that in many moments I felt like I was watching fillers and stories that although some were enjoyable and pure comedy didn't do much to move the plot forward, and if it hadn't been there it wouldn't have mattered.
I liked the characters, but I think they did very little justice to the women in this kdrama, as they seem to only revolve around the men even though they supposedly have equal or more impressive powers than them. Especially what they did with Naksu was criminal, and I still don't want to talk about how they completely forgot that she was powerful and they did reduced her to just being Jang Uk's companion, but that's already for part 2. However, in part 1 I think they could have given her powers more of a part, like how are you going to introduce me to an assassin that everyone fears and then reduce her to just being a maid in the whole drama? But well...
Finally, it was a little strange that the antagonists always had the upper hand but never did anything big enough, which didn't feel as natural, it seemed like they were just waiting to be caught. Also, when the climax of the story came and the major problem that they were warning us about from the beginning was unleashed it was resolved in a simple way and therefore didn't feel as threatening as they wanted to sell it, although I understand that they wanted to lay the groundwork for the next part.
Leaving these details aside, I agree that this kdrama is pure entertainment, the fight scenes are very flashy and every time they unsheathed the swords had me in chokehold. I enjoyed the story and I think the job was well done, just maybe it could have been a bit better.
Would I recommend it? Of course I would, as long as you are a person who enjoys watching a kinda slow story build up.
(I think I’ve fallen in love with Lee Jae Wook)

Fantastic
Love the storyExcellent start of the series and progressed just right.
Each character was given it’s time to tell their stories and wasn’t focused solely on lead actors.
Great FX
Glad there is a sequel to continue the story.
There’s no dull moment here and story didn’t drag.
Great costumes and wardrobe used on the set.
Looking forward to the next season.
I believe I’ll be rewatching last 2 episodes before starting season 2 in December.

Shadow assassin lost her direction and purpose !!
I don’t write review for every k-drama i watch. But alchemy of souls is worthy of a review. I felt an itch and needed to get it off my chest.Alchemy of souls is a blend of fantasy, action and romance with a historical backdrop. There is no historical fantasy k-drama closer to its level.
Although story is quite intriguing but can’t say it’s totally unique. There are many old tropes that are used in this drama. For instance, an assassin with a goal to avenge her family falling in love with her enemy is nothing new. Naksu lost her powers and had to rely on Jung uk to retrieve her powers back, but in the process she forget what her actual goal was. She kept pushing the ML to achieve his goal but lost her own way ! THAT was disappointing considering she was a total badass assassin. She became a character who lost her purpose and was left incomplete and unfulfilled.
Then comes our male lead with a broken past, Jung uk born under the kings star with prophecy to be world’s saviour and declared “special”. His past and identity crisis is used to make him get away with everything. It’s cool up to a certain point but when a character becomes too invincible, their journey becomes too predictable . Further naksu is the one who always gets him out of trouble.. her role was confined to that only.. Individually both characters had flaws but as a couple they complemented each other. Their chemistry is definitely something. Slow burn romance is more convincing. I enjoyed their bond as master and pupil but I didn’t thought it will last till the end and we will never get to see assassin naksu again.
Although the love square with mudok and three guys was alot to take in .Specially the crown prince falling for a servant was bit too much. However Yul’s past with naksu was touching and i felt every bit of his emotion. He silently protected her. I wish he had confronted naksu and told her that he know about her identity. I wonder why he stayed silent and never told her!!. I also don’t understand why she carried Yul’s whistle with her!!
My major disappointment is that naksu’s role was minimised. I was expecting more out of her character as an assassin since this was not romcom but an action fantasy drama. I wanted to see her more in action. Meanwhile male lead was overhyped by the writers with the saviour plot. Every superhero movie has the same plot “he is the saviour” and all.
Yul was introduced as a powerful and smartest mage yet his role was just that of a bystander as he knew everything about naksu but still did nothing!!! Mater Lee had better role to play than him. Crown prince unexpectedly became one of my favourite.
Music was good, “ just watching you” is my favourite track from the drama.

A Must Watch
This is just a must watch. Probably the most engaging, fun, interesting fantasy Kdrama I have seen The actors are perfection - they casted perfectly and the visuals are stunningConsidering this is high fantasy the writing weaves in the fantastical elements fairly seamlessly. The plot is not difficult to follow - although when you watch it a second time back things make much more sense and it is almost like watching the show with an entirely new lens.
If you like high fantasy and enjoy an amazing plot and fun characters and just an amazing show, watch this! Will for sure be re-watching….for the 3rd time.
