Ian Sep 22 2025 10:02 am We need a season 3 of Alchemy Of souls and bring back my mudeok?

Bob W May 09 2025 8:38 pm You and your sister have created the best Action/Drama/Romance series I have watched in my more than 74 year life. I was captivated after watching Part 1, Episode 1 for 30 minutes. I have watched the complete services 3 times and cannot get enough of the acting and story line.

I sincerely hope there will be a Season 3!!!

Angela H. May 08 2023 4:56 pm I love the series of Alchemy of souls. I think if they get the cast from this movie, and make a live version of Fruit Basket. I believe it will be a huge hit.

eprk2 Jan 15 2023 2:08 am I need Achemy of Souls season 3~xD

Cipo Jan 14 2023 8:59 am Hong Jung eun-ssi, hope you read my comment.

I wanna thank you and your sister for creating a masterpiece, Alchemy of Souls.

I really love everything about this drama.

I asked my father to watch AoS with me and now he's a big fan or it. As far as I remember, he has been repeating AoS for five times, always start from the first episode in part one.

He never ever watched korean drama before this. But now he's a big fan. He just retired from his work. One more time, thanks to make me and my father's day brighter

Tadij Jan 12 2023 9:04 am A new season with lots of sighs, action and comedy. Season 3 , please!!! Alchemy of souls.

Tdoka Jan 12 2023 9:02 am Alchemy of souls, Season 3, please. A new season with lots of sighs, action and comedy.

Lili Jan 08 2023 9:13 am How beautiful the ending of alchemy of souls, thank you

Niella Jan 01 2023 8:07 pm Thank you for the brilliant writing on Alchemy of souls. I just watched Season 2 episode 7 and the writing for Jang Uk and Jin5 Bu-yeon's declaration of Love was phenomenal. The part that really stood out to me was when Jang uk said "when the lantern is on, he's sane but when it is off, he pines for Bu-yeon". It heartwarming.

Johnathan Coon Jan 01 2023 1:07 pm Thank you for writing Alchemy of Souls. This story touches my heart every single episode. Please continue with it for a long time. ?

Lili Dec 25 2022 10:31 am Dear writer-nim Please make alchemy of souls part 2 happy ending Thank you

Angel Aug 30 2022 1:19 am Hello. I just wanted to say that I just got done watching alchemy of souls on Netflix and OMG!!! I was hooked since the beginning of the series. I love the characters and the relationships that they have with one another. I am so glad u chose to write this and make it into a series. I ask that you please continue your work with this one because I honestly can’t live without another season. Please Dont Leave Me With This Cliffhanger. I will literally find any and everyday to contact you so that I may get another season. I have seen other titles of what you’ve written and made and I can tell you that I loved Korean odyssey as well. I’m mostly a sucker for fantasy and romance and when you put those two together I fall in love. So please don’t leave me with a cliffhanger with this one. I Need Another Season. After everything all the characters went through I need another season pleaseeeeee. I love your brain and imagination and how you can come up with these masterpieces amaze me. Please don’t stop.

JoM Aug 12 2022 4:26 am Hong sisters, I love your stories

Bobbi Eckler Jul 21 2022 9:09 am I really like this little story... It seemingly has everything. It has made me cry, laugh and has kept my interest... I have only seen to episode 10 but, looking forward to more. It seems like the target audience would be for young ppl but, i am more mature and i like the setting, the story the humor and the actors playing their parts are doing it well. I haven't commented on a series before this one. I think the story is well written. Thank you... I wasn't impressed with Sassy Girl but, i really like this story...

Lili Jul 12 2022 3:58 am Please don't change the cast Alchemy of soul

mau Mar 22 2021 8:27 am Dear Ms. Hong Jung-Eun,

Greetings!

I am writing to you to inform you that I am a huge fan of yours, I'm from Manila Philippines. I was so crazy to have been watching the series Hotel De Luna, A Korean Odyssey, and The Master's Sun. I must say you're such a great writer.

I hope you continue to do these such wonderful stories. We are waiting for the next series/season of A Korean Odyssey.

We are so crazy with that series A Korean Odyssey.

Sincerely,

Mau

Baitong Nov 19 2020 7:30 am Hope that Hwayugi A Korean Odyssey will have season 2, think of all the actors. And we waited for season 2 please.

Jean Price Aug 26 2020 10:31 am Fantastic writer! Hotel del Luna

Wayne Katsikaris Jul 26 2020 7:03 pm Ms. Hong Jung-eun, I am very grateful that you chose to be a Writer. The stories you and your sister wrote are filled with everyone of our senses magnified. What goes through your imagination is absolutely touching... I am an old man now, waiting for Death as my doctor told me would happen 2 years ago. However, during those 2 years I was fed up with typical repetitive North American Story tellers. Everything they put out was the same thing over and over. Since I had already switched my music to K-Pop and J-PopP, I wondered if Korea, China had anything good on the TV screen. So the first one that had subtitle's was a Korean Drama called "Hwayugi" or " A Korean Odyssey". It was Stunning, fantastic, marvelous I couldn't believe someone out there wrote that ... A Korean Odyssey turned out to be my first Drama Love Affair... I haven't stopped watching drama's since, AND never realized until recently everyone of my favorite Drama's were written by The Hong Sister's Hong Jung-eun & Hong Mi-ran... And finally I recently came across " Hotel del Luna"... This may sound slightly psychotic but in the last 2 weeks I've watched it 3 times... I felt to honor the writer and director, I just had to rewatch and admire all the nuances in this Drama. From Ms IU's costumes , which she never wears twice ? right down to the pesky reincarnated Firefly. I can't Thank you enough for your life's work to date, and hope you continue to make us happy ... You and your sister Mi-ran most certainly deserve to be called Masters. Sincerely

Duangdao May 21 2020 8:31 am A Korean Odyssey Is there a season 2?

Vijay Dec 22 2014 5:06 am Hi,

I have watched your "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho" liked it very sweet love story in fact too sweet where everyone is sacrificing without even a second thought

                I would have loved it if you guys had stopped it at "Mi Ho" disappearing but i understand that u wanted to have happy ending so you brought her back so that she can be with her "TRUE LOVE".
          You guys have covered every thing but i still have a doubt if you can answer it i would be very grateful and happy

You have ended the series with "Mi Ho " come back "Woong" as a (il-Mi Ho) one tailed fox what happens to the "BEAD" Please tell me what has happened to the BEAD

Regards Vijay

Marlita Sep 26 2013 9:50 am Hi! it's a nice opportunity to see the ongoing drama The Master's Sun. It's such a big project, and I can feel the totality of every person involved in this project. It's like working seriously but during the same time you can also enjoy the working process.. Thank you, and have a nice day!

Chan Ti-Q Jun 27 2013 8:08 am I think you must make big special edition :)

amaal Jun 13 2013 10:46 am dear, it was an amazing compination of fiction with a taste of reality..the miracle bound , spirits swap , seeing one with your heart and loving the soul....first i was amazed by the actors..their performance..the characters..events..i enjoyed every moment...but the gracefull presence of the story made me really want to know more about who created this master piece which in my openion established a new level of perfection hard for others to reach...an heart aching yet hilarious ,a simple apperance of complicated web of feelings and relations...a compound of all complementaries into a homogenious stream..the end was perfect for any woman...its amazing to be with "a man" having a teenager spirit and heart...your story introduced me to k drama and culture...i wish to see and read more about your history , traditional stories and culture..wish you the best and waiting for more of your creations..

julia Feb 04 2013 9:23 pm BIG spoilers i don't know why people are freakin out about kkj ending up with gil da ran. they are not that far apart in age. and we know that he was really mature for his age anyhow... and he won't have that baby face for long. he was 21 or so at the end of the series. you need to remake the last 5 minutes of "big"... hahaha and do it right!!!

Kathleen Feria Dec 01 2012 1:37 pm Hi I'm from Philippines, all I can say is that I guess the secret of why people really love Korean dramas lies on how the writer executes sadism and masochism, masochism into sadism.. its like push and pull.. The way the writer wants to push somethings shows how amazing it is to pull back. It creates an illusion that everything comes naturally in every scenes.. once you start being in it, you just cant stop. This drama is one of the most beautiful dramas i have ever seen, the plot is just amazing. Not that typical fairy tale, it was just as unique as the writer who did it. It was worth the watch. :-) thumbs up!

Me Jul 30 2012 7:56 am I thing ending up with a 20 year old guy is not unethical they are only 8 years apart. More on what's going into your brain....

heks don't be such a greeny..

fixi Jul 27 2012 6:07 pm haha good choice there anonymous.

BIG is a good drama and its a disappointment since it ending like that.

For me, I didnt mind if KKJ ended up with Gil Da Ran, but make it in proper way, make it at least KKJ in Yoon Jae's body or KKJ in adult form. Like what anon says, it looks immoral if KKJ in his body be together with Gil Da Ran (Its not the age gap i think, its the look (the child boy and the adult woman) that make it so immoral and improper).

I am also didnt mind if Yoon Jae ended up with Gil Da Ran, since he comes first, and he didnt cheated and love Gil Da Ran so much. Just the time become disadvantages to him and Gil Da Ran, so Da Ran developed feeling for KKJ. After all, KKJ is the younger brother of Yoon Jae, and its Yoon Jae's woman before him.

There is so many options to choose for the ending, I dont know why the writer choose that confused ending. There is an internet and google, you can at least see what the viewer expect for your drama.

I love all of your drama and I have done watching them all. Im expecting a great project from you and your sister, you're a perfect duo doing many great drama and hoping to see you working on another drama soon.

Anonymous Jul 24 2012 2:27 pm Hi! There,

Great Drama, however, the ending sucks BIG time!!! (This unfortunately happens often with Korean writers!!! such a pity!!!)

Boo! Hoo! Why does Korean writer, write such a beautiful drama to allow it to sink?

Alternative ending with 4 more episodes.

1- The bodies and souls go to each right place. 2- The two brothers have no memories of after accidents, yet remembering flash back as if it was a dream. GDR has time to mourn her feelings for KKJ, and gets to her senses. She needs to make it as if it was a dream or wishful thinking, acts with lots of parody!!!

(Relationship between an ADULT TEACHER and his/her MINOR STUDENT is not only UNETHICAL but IMMORAL and should not idolized, rather discouraged!!!) We don’t want GDR to do jail time, and her life record tarnished forever

3- The parents tell both sons the all truth. However, SYJ knew the truth, and looking for KKJ to make things right by him. That has kept his mind off GDR not what everyone thinks of him having cold feet. He was on his way to tell her he loves her, but finding KKJ is his priority, and request a break from GDR(his intention on the way before accident) He is a good guy and didn’t mess around with Doctor S 4- KKJ and SYJ have an opportunity to grow into each other fondly, after finding out that they are brothers, and puzzled how the parents are there at their awakening, be act with lots of humour and parody! 5- The parents work hard for forgiveness and put KKJ first with the help and encouragement from SYJ 6- all of them visit KKJ’s mom to her tomb to pay respects and voice their thankfulness 7- KKJ returned to school. and still affectionately giving GDR hard time, and cunnigly enjoyibg it! Need to be acted with lots of humor and parody! 8- KKJ falls in love with a student of his age, which the feelings are mutual. 9- GCS (GIl teacher’s brother) gets together with Mari, whom finally return his feelings. 10- KKJ pushes SYJ to get back to GDR s he likes her honesty and clumsiness, that entertains him (not loves her) GDR and SYJ starts over and romanced each other. 11- Finally GDR and SYJ get married to the happiness of KKJ and his pretty awesome girlfriend, to the jealousy of Mari.

(Relationship between an ADULT TEACHER and his/her MINOR STUDENT is not only UNETHICAL but IMMORAL and should not idolized, rather discouraged!!!)

Please email or send to the Producer/writer if any of you know how/

Dianne Jul 11 2012 9:17 am I really love your story (Big) it so creative. Plz let Gil Daq Ran and Kim Kyung Joon be together even though they have gap in their age. Plz be open minded. It is a modern world it is okay for a younger man married a woman older than he is..

zhai Feb 25 2011 7:34 am whoah! i luv ur stories! keep on writing.... u have great talent! pls make part 2 of He's beautiful and Gumiho... please! please! please! =)
