    THIS! I cried too when his character is not likeable at all. Lee Sung-min is always good but his self-made chaebol in Reborn Rich is totally a different level.

Okay, okay. Let’s get this straight. Who said Jung So Min wasn’t coming back to #AlchemyofSouls? Can anyone please link me the original official article, pref. in Korean please 🙏

I’ve heard too many different stories and I don’t want to believe any of them 😭

    This is a recent Korean article – https://www.hankookilbo.com/News/Read/A2022083010210001284

    Of course, the production may still change its mind any time between now and December 🤷‍♀️.

      Thank you so much!!

      What I’m getting from this is that nothing is actually confirmed? Lol. The production team and TvN are giving vague, conflicting answers. TvN literally says “the word ‘replacement of actors’ is not appropriate” and to watch S2 to confirm who’s coming back and in what capacity. But then some rando ‘official from TvN’ says Jung So Min will not be back for S2 because she was petrified?? (She wasn’t though, not fully anyway 😒)

      Jung So Min and Go Yoon Jung’s agencies both said they can’t comment on whether or not JSM would be back because it would be a spoiler for an important part of the story.

      I’ve been burned by the Hong Sisters before but I really want to believe that at least one of them has their head on straight and that they (and the director and other decision makers for this production) know better than to alienate the majority of their audience for some illogical and meaningless plot twist/concept.

      My fingers are going to be crossed till December 🤞🤞🤞

      P.S. Why did everyone conclude it was official just because GYJ appeared for 5 seconds at the very end of the entire show? I’m honestly curious. All the “official statements” are vague and contradictory AND sissy barely had 45 minutes of screen time for the entire duration of the show,,, 🥴

    I’m hoping they’re being deliberately vague. I don’t see how they could do it without her – unless they managed to fit some filming with her in ahead of time so they could then surprise everyone with her presence later or something.

It\’s the end of a year. I\’m trying to let go of burdens, grudges, and disappointments. But freaking Disneyyyy. Why\’d y\’all have to lie about Snowdrop? I still check in every week to see if maybe you guys forgot about it, then added the show mid-season or sth. Wasting my time and money smh.

Happiness has got to stop with these games. Like I am not the one. Sae Bom and Yi Hyun are off-limits. Seriously, if our couple doesn\’t get a happy ending, I will be very upset. Just stop.

    I saw lots of comments on earlier episodes expecting Hyun would be infected but since things always work out for the leads, I was doubtful. But episode 10 was a total slap in the face. I think the writer went too far on this one – what’s the likelihood of two murderers in one building? The residents have gone full-on ‘Hell is Other People’ at this point.

      A double whammy really. No respect for the viewer’s hearts IMO (like a lot of other writers). And there are only two episodes left! I hope they’re not aiming for a ten-minute resolution. That would be messed up.

Hellbound was a showcase of the most stupid and idiotic of humans IMO. It made me a little sad towards the end and a little justified too (seeing characters get served), but mostly mad. Overall, worth the watch, and nicely told.

I\’m only watching …[counts all fingers and toes] a few.

(Segue to Inspector Koo rant. Possible sp0ilers for Inspector Koo ahead)
I must be in a serial killer drama kind of mood bc I\’m loving it. I\’m especially enjoying the directing and the comic book style. I love, love, love! the theatrical aspect of it. The scenes where they’re literally being filmed acting on stage are so cool! (The death line-up in episode 1, the conversation between the leads in episode 6, that dream/memory of the girls acting from episode 6, etc.) Watching the stage light up just tickles my inner theater kid.

I’m really interested in Santa. Like what’s his deal? He can obviously talk and he’s definitely hiding something. He’s also surprisingly resourceful for a guy with a gaming background…very suspicious 🙂 I’ve decided that I like him anyway. He gets cuter every time he smiles and seeing him make everyone swoon with one look is hilarious. (I would stan, but I really don’t have the energy to internet stalk fangirl over another actor).

I wish it was an actual webtoon. I would read that in a heartbeat.

I understand the reasoning behind the whole Song Yi-Kyung and Goo Kyung-Yi name situation, but does it have to be confusing? It took me 1.5 episodes and some Korean captioning to actually know their names. That’s a lot of time to not know your serial killer if you ask me. Yi-Kyung could easily be a full name and Kyung-Yi’s name may just as well be Kyung (Maybe I’m overthinking this…?)

Anyway, I like our serial killer. More than I expected. That’s a first. (Or maybe it’s just that I have very little sympathy for her victims.) I hope our criminal and investigator get together somehow. For what, I don’t know. I really think they’ll make a good team. Their dynamic is fun to watch as it is but imagine the chaos when they’re together. I’m in a let all hell loose kind of mood 🙃

    P.S. We don’t get a lot of female serial killers so that could be another reason Yi Kyung interests me. (That ghost lady from Ghost Detective is the only other female serial killer I can think of. And she was creepy!)
    YK is also a fun character. Take away the killing tendencies and she’s just a quirky theatre nerd.

Bae Hae Sun should get paid leave and a bonus at the end of the year. Or at least some recognition for how much work she\’s been doing lately.

It\’s weird but I find Happiness to be a really comfortable drama. Probably because the relationship between the main leads is so (for lack of a better word) comfortable. Seeing them together makes me feel like I have nothing to worry about – even as I watch people get their necks bitten off. It’s very misleading.

    You nailed it. I get whiplash sometimes with Happiness. The main leads are so capable and so levelheaded (plus Bom’s immunity) that I’m assured that there’s nothing they can’t handle, and then there are these reckless and selfish people around them to fuel the chaos. Maybe that’s why it’s the only zombie show that I can calmly watch during lunch/dinner haha.

A few reasons why Yumi’s cells is my favorite on-air show:

Who would\’ve thought that my favourite recent premiere would be Yumi\’s Cells 🙃?

    I already liked the webtoon, it’s relatable and funny, but I wasn’t sure I would like the real-world plus animation plan. Turns out, not shabby at all. The cells don’t interfere (or interact really) with the real world, which is a huge plus in my book. Their world is intertwined with the real world but it’s also independent of it in a way that makes the transition from one side to the other easy on the mind. Basically, it doesn’t interrupt my suspension of disbelief. I can easily get immersed in the show without thinking “Wow, that’s weird”.

    The story is also SO relatable, but I already expected that. I am Yumi and Yumi is me. Except I don’t have multiple cute *and* sweet guys potentially vying for my attention, but do any of us? haha (No seriously, do you guys have some lying around?)

        This is what’s putting me off watching it, multiple seasons. Even if it’s planned in advance, knowing there are intended to be multiple seasons killed my enthusiasm for it.

            I’m so used to having the big arc, I can’t remember how to watch episodic things 😅 the cells are fun though so we will see if I manage to stay away.

    It took me until the end of Episode 2 to get into it, but this week’s episodes were so good. Really sweet and funny and relatable.
