Lee Jae-wook replaces Jung So-min’s knife with a kiss | Alchemy of Souls Ep 18 [ENG SUB]

[@Nov0320]

I am not the type to get obsessed with kiss scenes but everything about this moment was just perfection. The music, the longing, the promise of forever, Mudeok's sacrifice of power for love?? Uk being a bit afraid she might not choose him but relieved after she does. They nailed it all

[@AndreaParas73TDrey]

Exactly!!! I can't wait until the next episode...

I thought that there was going to be a season 2/ part 2

[@bangtanmoments8112]

Everything was just so cinematic. Somin proved herself, the facial expressions or emotions are overflowing. This scene showed us that Naksu, in Mudeok's or Buyeon's body, was after all a human being or mage who just wanted to feel loved and Jang Uk gave that love to her after all these years. That is why she can't afford to lose someone who's the only person who protected her for everyone wanted Naksu killed or gone. Kiss instead of sword.

the real definition of “loving each other to death”. Just like their confession. They choose love, even though they know being together may risk both of their life

[@akustus1860]

Probably the only kiss scene I don't mind repeating over and over again. Just pure art.

[@pjintoy]

Naksu couldn't take the thought of losing Jang Uk and, in the end, she chose him, like she has done so many times before; a simple life with him over all the power in the world and gloomy, empty life of solitude. She has faith in him to love her forever, and I love that they end this episode with a kiss that seals the promise of eternity.

This scene was so intense. Their chemistry is amazing and all I want is a happy ending for them.

And she in turn realizes that he means more to her than all the power in the world. I love the sm. 😭

This was such a beautiful kiss scene! From their conversation, to the tearful gazes, the song, the movement, embracement... just everything! Absolute perfect scene ❤ I can't remember a kiss that was this passionate and lovely in the latest dramas I've been watching. I'm so excited for the last two episodes of part 1... but I'm also scared and sad. Feeling all kind of emotions with this amazing drama. I'm so happy Lee Jae Wook is able to show his incredible talent throughout this drama. He is made for lead roles and I hope he gets amazing roles in the future as well! And Jung So Min also showed how incredible versatile she is. Her version of Naksu/Mudeok is topnotch and became one of my fave female leads of all time. The cast as a whole is just amazing. I just love this drama so much 😍

The storytelling, the writing, the acting, the cinematography - I could go on and on. One of the best scenes because you go through a rollercoaster of emotions.

[@am_tired]

this was seriously such a loving and well done scene, it makes me smile😭 and the kiss was neither overly intense nor extremely timid, it was just the right amount of intimacy for them and the vibe of the scene and kdrama in my genuine opinion. the gentle passion in all of it was everything to me. props to jaewook and somin as well as the film crew because after watching the behind the scenes, it was very technical and took a lot of tries and angles so i bet it was a little tough. and the new ost for it was perfect😭 A BEAUTIFUL SCENE.

[@chandrawalithakur2691]

[@JaiibCaiib_Mindmaps]

There are many reasons why Janguk loves Mudeok She is the first one who understood how deseperate he was , she helped him to master ryusu, tansu, chisu.. with her direction only he entered into songrim.. but where as Naksu (Mudeok) case is different-She lived all her life alone by thinking revenge, her body is not her own, if caught she might die, even Janguk was never with her all times, if he marries lady chin she will be alone, if he loses the will to train for his own family issues, she needs to just work as maid to him, she used her own skills and used her friendship with crownprince, seo yul to overcome problems.. when a person is constantly lives in fear.. Love is a Luxury for them.. thats why the pure love of Jang Uk induces both happiness and sadness to her.. At last She accepted only because she realised that she can no longer bear that sadness of leaving him..

[@elisabethbalde7774]

Even tho naksu/mudoek was sometimes harsh condescending and cold she was always honest with jang UK and cared for him! They went through so much together, risked their lives for each other, and they both gave up their dearest dream just so they can be together, so this much love is only fair! meanwhile in season 2 Jang UK fell for a girl with a complete different personality in just a matter of days! that's what baffled me I just couldn't keep watching and I didn't even feel it was naksu in that body...
