Lee Jae Wook and Shin Seung Ho will again meet in a duel in the upcoming episode of "Alchemy of Souls" after Jung So Min pits the two together. What will happen next? Here's what to anticipate in the brand new episode of the highly loved fantasy romance drama.
Shin Seung Ho To Test Lee Jae Wook's Strength in 'Alchemy of Souls'
tvN's production unit of "Alchemy of Souls" unveiled new exciting photos of Lee Jae Wook, Jung So Min, and Shin Seung Ho!
"Alchemy of Souls" is a fantasy action romance drama that depicts the life of a shadow assassin who magically swaps souls with a servant who works for the people who killed her family.
In the drama, Jang Uk (Lee Jae Wook) finally becomes an official Songrim mage after years of being unable to perform magic spells.
His servant, Mu Deok (Jung So Min), also succeeded in becoming a Songrim servant in the previous episode and finally reuniting with her master.
Apart from achieving their personal goals, the two also became aware of how much they cared and missed each other.
Mu Deok also admitted to herself that she feels something more about Jang Uk, which she should have never thought in the first place.
In the drama's second half, Mu Deok decides to test Jang Uk's ability and strength as a mage to prepare him for any unexpected circumstance.
Before the release of the new episode, "Alchemy of Souls" released new stills of Lee Jae Wook and Shin Seung Ho, foreshadowing a tense moment.
Jang Uk is seen with someone pointing his sword at his throat, looking flustered by the sudden attack. Mu Deok, on the other hand, tries to be calm.
In the next photo, Jang Uk shoots her a sharp glare as Crown Prince Go Won (Shin Seung Ho) watches them in amusement.
Mu Deok and Crown Prince Go Won's alliance to make Jang Uk stronger is one of the things to anticipate in the new episode.
