Written by the infamous Hong sisters, Hong Jung Eun and Hong Mi Ran, the story revolves around the tale of two magicians who deal with issues arriving from both heaven and earth. Another of the Hong sisters’ dramas to have received praise was Hotel Del Luna.
Jung So Min and Lee Jae Wook to star as main characters
Jung So Min has been cast by the production team to provide new excitement to the character of Mu Deok Yi, a badass-female assassin who also embodies the spirit of another soul, Nak Soo. Honestly, who does not love badass and rough female lead in K-dramas? And we can never have enough of them!
For the character of Jang Wook, a young master from a noble family- there couldn’t have been a better choice than Lee Jae Wook. His character is both intelligent and troublesome, often causing inconvenience as and when he pleases.

The second teaser video of the period k-drama, “Alchemy Of Souls” has undoubtedly made fans very eager to watch the romance and fierce chemistry between the two opposing characters. One, a noble but poor disciple, and the other, the weakest servant in the world — we can’t wait to see how the Hong sisters are going to spice things up in this period k-drama!
