AoS: Light and Shadow is the continuation story, the sequel of AoS. From the same writers Hong Sisters and same production team, the main casts will return for Part 2 as well.

Han Joon Oh is a leading South Korean celebrity. He is stunningly good-looking and tall but is secretly plagued by an inferiority complex that leaves him permanently insecure. One day, he is hired to appear in a public service video. But the shoot goes horribly wrong, and Han Joon Oh is involved in a potentially fatal car collision. He is only saved by the quick thinking of a female firefighter named Kang Young Hwa, who pulls off a heroic rescue.

Han Joon Oh’s representatives hire Kang Young Hwa to work as the star’s personal bodyguard, recognizing her incredible talents. But when Han Joon Oh awakes from his stupor in the hospital, he has changed completely – as his body has now been possessed by the spirit of a nobleman from ancient Korea. This nobleman, named Do Ha, was killed by his beloved wife Han Ri Ta – and the vengeful spirit is on a single-minded quest for retribution…

Both have one of the main character's soul transferred to another body. Both have fantasy genre. Main characters both hate each other at first but then the relationship starts to develop strongly

"Love between Fairy and Devil" together with "Alchemy of Souls" are the best dramas of the season, they are not exactly the same, they both have great OSTs, but they also share the theme of an impossible love story set in a magical world.

Based on only the first episode of Alchemy of Souls - there you have it: the horror background/aspects, the immortal souls (or possibility for immortality), the secrecy aspect, immense powers, etc.

Other than that, the plots themselves probably won't have much in common.

It's the Genre!

I don't think the ML & FL has any similarities with that of “Evernight”, it's the genre actually that is exactly the same without any argument. Cdrama fans already know this XUANHUAN, kdrama why must you do this, ehe?
Also at the beginning of each drama, both ML can't cultivate for their different situations and later found their path in becoming a magician or rather mage! I can say that Ever Night's plot is more reasonable to me than AOS or I'm too early to said that since I'd completed episode 5 recently.

I've been rooting for this kind of good drama in this genre since I watched Ever Night and here it's, so I ought to enjoy it! Also Master and servant relationship between the ML & FL. Recently there are others like Doulou Continent and The Blue Whisper which I didn't enjoyed that much that are similar with AOS in genre only!

If you're enjoying AOS I guess you'll enjoy Ever Night S1 for the same taste they both share! Fingers crossed!

Those 2 dramas are very similar.
Alchemy of souls has a very strong wuxia vibe going on.
The costumes and the powerful fighting skills.
Both of the MLs have a hidden birthstory, both are mistreated and cave their skills power and influence all by themselves.
JOL does not have romance as much as AOS though.

Contains many of the same tropes, but goes more in-depth. Explains different levels of energy and how to train for and obtain them.

Both are fantasy historical dramas where one person's soul ends up in another person's body. They follow the premise of the FL trying to get out of the body they've ended up in, but Alchemy of Souls has more magical elements while Mr. Queen is around time travel. I also think they have a similar type of humor where it shouldn't be taken too seriously even when the drama's setting deals with intense stuff like royalty and politics.

Both are high budget fantasy korean dramas released in tvn. Both dramas have amount of great CGIs, unique plots and incredible acting.
Both dramas set in fictional countries. Both ML characters has birth secret with prophecy.

From the same writers (Hong sisters), both shows are high fantasy + romance. They have strong female leads with supernatural abilities who is on a mission related to her past and can fight well. Both have good special effects and some comedic elements to it as well.

Both drama are from the same writers - Hong sisters. Both dramas are fantasy dramas . Even though plot wise it's different some character dynamics between the characters are similar. While a Korean odyssey storyline is set in the modern time, alchemy of souls is set in a different period of time.
