J.A. “Sol de Litras” Siasol

"Alchemy of Souls: Light and Shadow" finally comes to an end. I've already watched hundreds of K-dramas, and it was truly one of the best K-dramas I’ve ever seen. The characters, plot, acting skills, cinematography, and music were phenomenal. Thank you so much to the entire crew and cast for giving life to such an amazing fantasy! Actually, I cried a river of tears; I already accepted from the very start of Season 1 that this would be another cruel drama that would wound the viewers' hearts, but yeah, it was. But also, it's a happy ending that viewers deserve but we didn't expect.

I usually prefer legal drama, suspense, thriller, historical, and medical drama, so when I heard about this drama, I didn't think it was my cup of tea. However, I missed seeing Park Eun Bin's acting after watching Extraordinary Attorney Woo, so I decided to give it a try. At first, I found the drama to be slow-paced and not as intense as what I'm used to. But as I kept watching, I got hooked on the story. I realized that this was a drama that I could relate to. The themes of family, friendship, and everyday struggles really resonated with me. The acting in this drama was excellent, especially Park Eun Bin's performance. She portrayed her character with nuance and heart, and I was completely drawn into her story. The other characters were also well-written and brought depth to the story. Even though the plot wasn't filled with the usual twists and turns of a thriller, I appreciated how grounded and realistic it was. It tackled important social issues, such as mental health and societal expectations, in a sensitive and thoughtful manner. Overall, while this drama may not be everyone's cup of tea, I found it to be a refreshing change of pace from my usual preferences. It delivered a satisfying viewing experience and left me with a sense of connection to the characters and their struggles.
