    Jung so min will always be my favorite nasku, because she embodied everything in the character. She was a killer with vulnerability. Go Younjung showed what nasku would have been like if jin mu had never turn her into a killer. She had no hard side to her. She had no trust issues. She wanted to let jang UK in. I like them both for different reasons!

    I just finished the 2 part series. I love love S1 and JSM as Naksu/Mudeok was very compelling and keeps you drawn to the series. She had better chemistry with the men pining for her. Her romantic scenes with Jang Uk had more substance. The ending was just gut wrenching. I understand the Naksu switch had to be the S2 story but it didn't give the same punch as S1 even with the awesome fighting and saving the world scenes. Naksu had more kissing scenes but I was missing JSM so much. GYJ played her character well but I wished Jang Uk somehow ended up with Mudeok instead. S2 felt flat for me. I couldn't even cry when Naksu's soul died so Mudeok/Jin Buyeon would come back. So it's good that S2 was short.

And I wanted Seo Yul to end up with Buyeon.

But for me there was a Hugh void with Jung So Min/Mu-doek/Naksu absence. However I love how they wrapped everything up but left it where another season could be possible.

    I watched the S2 especially to know the continuation of this fantastic epic.
    But during the 1O episodes I regretted Jung So Min and I got a little bored.
    Even if GYJ plays well, she does not have the playing power of Jin So Min who pops the screen in a more difficult and intense role than that of "princess" in Naksu S2.
    Lee Jae Wook’s talent is breathtaking in the S1.
    UK and Mudeok it is a dream, pure emotion.
    Faced with the immense talent of Jung So Min the emulation is obvious. All the actors are better in the S1.
    I don’t think the S2 would have achieved this success without her performance in the S1.
    We talk a lot about the beauty of GYJ but it is not enough to build a good story.
    JSM is also very beautiful and also charismatic.

      I have nothing against either one of them. Love them both in fact. However, the script of part two and the way the story went didn't do GYJ justice at all. In part one, we saw JSM's character as a very smart, quick to response, very determined and has no hesitation to do whatever including poisoning Jang Uk and make use of people. When coupling with Jang Uk who was still an innocent young man at a time, it created this awesome dynamic duo that was so fun to watch. In part two, unfortunately, Uk turned into the greatest warrior so that took all the suspense out since nothing could possibly harm them. GYJ's character also turned into this uncertain person who the ultimate goal in life was to escape from her own house. The intensity, intelligent, the rush and whatever else that created magic in part one were all gone. GYJ had to play this I don't know nothing, I'm just looking for a husband kind of roll and that wasn't at all interesting. But like I said, this is not the actor's fault, it just the way the story went and I wish they could have done better.

    Dear, no one could be better than Jung Somin, she made that drama rise, and when she was removed, the rest of the series wasn't good enough. I really say this trying to be neutral but I could never feel the same when the real Naksu came back...Maybe she's ok, but definitely not as good to capture your attention as Somin was. A very bad decision imo, to swap actresses like that, it didn't allow me to feel like I was rooting for the same soul at all.

      It pains me to see people only crediting season 2 cast for the success of the show. Part 1 did all the work and especially after the 3 months break in between seasons, (I watched part 1 after it was done airing) AOS gained more viewers, I literally put my friends on to watch this show because of how awesome Part 1 was.

S2 felt flat although GYJ portrayed her role in a great way, still incomparable to JSM. Even the fierce Naksu I was expecting for an assassin wasn’t there. I would watch S2 and fall asleep momentarily, that’s what I felt that it has never peaked my interest due to my bias for the first female lead.

    I just finished the series. I was so hooked that I watched it non-stop. When I finished the part 1 which is 20 episodes I thought part 2 would be the same, I didn't even check it, I just continued watching, and I just realized it when I was on the last episode of the part 2. I was a little disappointed when Somin got replaced. I really enjoyed how she portrayed the character and they did have a good chemistry with the male character., but oh well,, what can we do?😅

    S1 with Jung Somin showed a very nice and excellent tandem to the ML and FL. Jang Uk and Mudheok shared best moments. I was sad Mudheok was not already in S2. The twist of the story is quite disappointing. Mudheok was forgotten. And Jang Uk easily got attracted to Buyheon. How could he kissed other girl easily, even he didnt know the soul was Naksu. He easily forgot Mudheok. Confused and disappointed.The character of Mudheok was easily vanished.

      Exactly! I almost felt betrayed when he kissed BuYeon the same night after he bid goodbye to Naksu/MuDeok at the lake in episode 5.
      How could he kiss someone else after a heavy emotion night? Even BuYeon thought he was thinking of Naksu/MiDeok when he kissed her.
      It seems like he’s so easily get distracted by a pretty girl who’s chasing after him. So disappointing. I thought they should only get closer when he found out more similarity (of Naksu) in her.

    I would have been much happier if Mudeok would have re-appeared at the end. Go Yoon Jung is a good actress and very beautiful but I really really really missed Jung So Min. I'm sure the Hong sisters could have brought her back and have UK date both "versions" of Naksu until the women got tired of him and married each other with Jin Mu officiating. What a happy ending that would have been.

    Unlike popular opinion, I actually quite liked both actresses
    SPOILER ALERT
    and I think the change and lack of chemistry in the beginning of the 2nd season helped express the emotions Uk felt after losing Mudeok. As the season goes on you feel his confusion as their chemistry grows despite her being a different person, and by the end of the show, it felt natural seeing Naksu and Uk together.

    They swapped out a leading lady, that always works out bad. It doesn't matter at all what the story line is. Further it was easy to tell from the second season's writing and convoluted plot they were trying to fix a dumb mistake. Also there appears to be a large social media campaign designed to try and make the producers, directors and writers from not looking foolish and IMHO it's doing just the opposite. They have foolishly painted themselves into a corner where there is no possibility that the original actress can come back for a season three in a staring roll. So, it's unlikely there will even be a season three. But the first season was great!

      I noticed that also. A lot of sudden scrambling and forced media appearances emphasizing an overly happy and compatible S2 cast. I am a big fan of the Hong sisters (Hotel del Luna) but I feel like they went off the rails in writing S2 of AOS ( the recasting of the FL being their worst decision). They probably envisioned that the recasting would generate a small amount of media buzz and result in increased viewership for S2, but they underestimated JSM and didn't expect her portrayal of Mudeok to resonate with so many people.

      This is so true :) I expected a great P2 which would made this drama epic but the whole plot and magic from P1 was obliterated !!! to the point that P2 feels like a poor fanfiction. The only thing P2 has is a strong promotion campaign with the key word "chemistry" and "lead actors as lovers in real life" premise. It has no story itself and the whole hype are cliffhangers revolving around the story will she remember/will he recognize her. They tried to compensate all that with bold kissing scenes ?! and a classic trope in kdramas....
      P2 is just a huge failure.

    • @Leilei487
      @Leilei487 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      i think because at that time jin buyeon was still recovering, meaning she probably has lost her power from drowning, so she recovered using naksu’s soul. since naksu’s soul was powerful from the alchemy of soul. But in part 2 i guess both are dying and master lee can only save one soul using buyeon’s body as he thought buyeon’s soul is dead, but we later found out she wasn’t so she came back and did what she needs to do and leave the body again in the end..

    If Naksu took over Jin Buyeon'a body because her energy is making the body alive, then, Jung Somin's face is the face of Jin Seolran since the soul of Jin Seolran is inside the body of (real) Jin Buyeon. Or was the body has the face of the real Jin Buyeon just that it was made alive because Jin Seolran was born from since inside mother Jin's womb.
