Both are Korean fantasy/historical dramas in which the main characters have magical powers and a similar style of hair/dress. Both have strong wuxia influences.

THIS SERIES IS WHAT I AM WATCHING NOWADAYS
THE ML WAS LOCKED FOR A MILLENNIA because of the secret he holds
The fl started out as a very cheerful person but after many experiences she became ruthless nd very different from the way she was before
The fl freed the ml from the fate he was gonna suffer after getting unsealed without knowing anything she just wanted to save a person who hasn't done anything
Later on she wanted to achieve the peak of martial world nd when she was trying to obtain one of the strongest divine weapon in martial world due to some situations the weapon chose the ml instead nd she felt betrayed by it. Nd swore to take revenge but in the aftermath she disappeared nd everyone thought she died nd many years later she came back but this time she was attached to some young heiress girl of one of the immortal sects by some miracle nd that's the spoiler part so I won't tell it here she became a spirit that obtained some spiritual connection with that girl nd she obtained a way to come back into the martial world from the dead she had the same face as the girl she encountered only the girl from who she took the same face can see fls real face other people will see her as tht heiress girl so we had two versions of the same girl afterwards the fl nd the heiress girl joined the same sect she established when she was at its peak to kill the current leader who's the ml they had a lot of encounters but after this she started falling for the ml nd the events that happened while obtaining one of the strongest divine weapon she got to know what actually happened back then so they slowly faced a lot of things together nd got together but the ml that holded the secret of why he was sealed it started coming back slowly throughout the series nd they faced to fight against that curse together this is very similar to AOS in many ways as it also had something to do with souls nd such things that happened with fl here she also regained her original body later on nd such the budget is somewhere not that high but the char of fl nd ml is the thing to watch nd some side chars also are many people's fav it's worth watching if you avoid some plot holes. it's very similar in some ways with AOS

Alchemy of Souls is inspired by Chinese Wuxia dramas, and Love and Destiny is one of the finest ones. Ling Xi becoming Lin Mo will recall how Alchemy of Souls FL's soul transfers body and loses her memories. The superb acting and cinematography of Love and Destiny will not disappoint and surely will be enjoyed by anyone who enjoyed Alchemy of Souls.
