ALCHEMY OF SOULS 2 EPISODE 9 AND 10

WE GOT A HAPPY ENDING

After 2022 was a year of freaking sad endings

(Yes everybody, get those flashbacks)

etcetera, no need to relieve painful memories

*Laughs in maniac*

I must admit, I was expecting a sad ending for AOS BUT I am extremely surprised the directors got their souls back and decided to give us the ending we needed

Because, you know, one can only acquire so much trauma

SO TO GO OVER EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED ON THIS TWO EPISODES

The crown prince honestly deserved being a King, he got his happy ending and him looking at Jin Mu and going "I am not weak, caring about the weak makes me strong" -I'm paraphrasing, but you get me- and then being like "BAM! Here is my bestie" was wonderful

Jin Mu first death and then the second death were extremely EYE PLEASING, I was giggling all the way and then staring in shock because JANG UK YOU JUST KILL SOMEONE, DON'T LOOK AT THE CAMARA LIKE THAT *Dies in shock*

Now, Seo Yul mourning for So-i was a nice touch. I am upset that the didn't got their happy ending together but it's nice to know that something could have happened if she had remained alive.

Then we have Naksu, our sweet little assassin who SLAYED THE MURDER -Or almost murder- OF JIN MU. She really said "You picked the wrong girl to manipulate, and I do not like to repeat my mistakes" and then BAM proceeds to let Jang Uk kill her -But not really-

Then, THE TURTLE. This turtle was AMAZING, I need one of those for good luck. The amazing mythical creature that decided to crawl out of the FREAKING OCEAN JUST TO SAVE OUR COUPLE

So cute *giggles in fangirl*

Jang Uk killing the whole Unanimous assembly just because they had caused for his girl to disappear was POWERFUL. This man screamed revengeful vibes since the beginning and we all knew it.

Their last -or what we thought would be their last- moments together were wonderful, so cute and raw and I NEED THEM TO MAKE ANOTHER DRAMA TOGETHER. The weeding being directed by Master Lee was wonderful and the fact that the meaning of their names were Light and Shadow and that's why the name of the second part was Light and shadow? That was some awesome last second reveal. But then, sad part came and Naksu was gone and I MUST ADMIT THAT I ALMOST CRIED.

He lost his baby again, and it was painful.

And then he came back, and it was even more painful.

"I know my Lord" said Maidservant Kim as she cried. YES WE ALL KNOW, I ALMOST CREATED A MACHINE IN ORDER TO APPEAR BESIDES YOU AND SAVE YOU

AND THEN HE DIED

AND THEN THEY ALL DIED

AND THEN I WAS WONDERING WHAT THE HECK WAS WRONG WITH 2022

AND THEN JIN BUYEON JUST SAID "YOU CAN GET HER BACK" AND THEN NAKSU WAS BACK

AND THEN HAPPY ENDING FOR EVERYBODY

I must say, I would have loved an expanded ending. But I am happy with what we got.

Now, it is time to say goodbye and it hurts me to know that it's over but I am happy they got their happy ending.

Now, I'm off to see Island and The glory. And yes, you can expect posts about this dramas.

Byeeee

Kdramas I have watched

64. Thirty-nine

I started this show for Son Ye-jin and Jeon Mi-do. I thought this show was going to revolve around the lead 3 women so I was a little disappointed that it was centred around just one.

This show is guaranteed to make you cry throughout so make sure to have tissues ready. I wanted to love this show so much and had really high hopes for it so I was disappointed by a few things.

I'll start with what I liked: the trio's friendship (whether it was flashbacks or present day, I loved all the scenes with all three of them in it) I also loved the relationship the women had with their own parents as well as each other's. It was so heartwarming.

I liked the relationship between Mi-jo and Seon-u. They were always there when the other needed them most ❤️ I also loved the relationship between Mi-jo and Mi-hyeon. Actually just their whole family dynamic was beautiful.

What I didn't like: I really wanted the show to focus on all 3 women, not just one. I was interested in all their stories and was disappointed that we got so little screen time with two of them. Especially Joo-hee. I really wanted to see how her relationship developed with Hyun-joon. They could have given us 16 episodes and expanded on Chan-young's and Joo-hee's story.

I also didn't like the storyline where Seon-u's father didn't approve of Mi-jo because she was adopted. Mi-jo was adopted into a wealthy family and was very successful. More than most people raised by their birth parents. It just didn't make sense to me. As did giving so much screen time to Seon-u's sister. It was unnecessary drama.

All that aside I would still recommend this show. Watch this if you're looking for a tearjerker.

A thousand nights over and over again. A thousand nights over and over. Please let us be together for that long.
