New K-Dramas have knocked on our doors this summer. We have been getting everything from romances to romantic comedies to fantasy dramas like this. The drama is unlike any other fantasy K-drama we have seen. It is a historical one with references to magic. If you have ever watched Chinese fantasy dramas, you’ll see the resemblance. The amazing visuals and the themes of cultivation and magic are something new to the K-drama land. It is actually a welcome change as the show is already topping the ratings in South Korea. The show is so interesting, and viewers can’t wait for Episode 3 of Alchemy of Souls to drop.
The drama revolves around a village that apparently has many magicians. The drama follows a lot of themes of soul shifting. Also, one of the main attractions of the drama is definitely its great casting. With an impressive lineup of actors, the drama is gaining attention. The show stars Lee Jae-wook, Jung So-min, and idols Hwang Min-hyun and Oh My Girl’s Arin. The plot of the drama is a bit complicated yet promises to be worthy of your time. Read ahead to find the release date of Alchemy of Souls Episode 3.
Alchemy of Souls Recap
The drama will have 20 episodes and 2 episodes are already out yet. In fact, in the first episode itself, many characters have already been introduced. The story which probably has folklore attached to it is already unfolding. It is honestly interesting to see a drama like this in South Korea.
The drama begins from a time almost 20 years ago, wherein a magician Jang Kang does the forbidden magic of swapping souls. He swaps his soul with the then reigning king, who in turn wants to impregnate Jang’s lover. Anyway, the kid born is called Nak-su in the present times, and she’s a formidable warrior and possesses magical watery powers. But in a while, we see how she is being pursued by the royal family and is shot many arrows. To save her soul, she swaps her soul into a supposedly blind girl Mu-deok. Mu-deok is actually not blind, and Nak-su has also lost her powers. But Nak-su is trying to get accustomed to Mu-deok’s body. In her body, she sets out to finish the mission she started, which was to kill monks.
Meanwhile, the royal family is the one who are looking for Nak-su to kill her off. Their son Jang Wook is in the mountains training. He is pretty untamed and doesn’t follow rules. Jang Wook runs into Mu-deok in the royal palace and notices that her fighting style is very similar to Nak-su’s, the girl they’ve been looking for. But Jang Wook is very keen on mu-deok, and believes that she’s the teacher he has been looking for all this while long. Meanwhile, Mu-deok (more like Nak-su) notices a necklace that she believes holds the source of her power. Hence, Jang-wook brings along mu-deok with him as his maid. The duo bickers a lot and is a reason for some comic relief in the drama.
Apart from these main characters, we are also introduced to the Jin family, daughter is Jin Cho-yeon, played by Arin. Also, we have Yoo In-soo as the heir of the Park family, Park Dang-gu. We further have Seo-yul, the genius successor of the Seol family.
