How? By lesson of humility?

Yes

What Cho-Yeon said about Jin clan priestesses - that they can trap souls and block mages souls' powers. Did Bu-Yeon do this with Naksu's soul? Did she block her powers?

The villains want to soulshift mama Jin. It was their endgame plan with fake Bu-Yeon - she has to bring mama Jin to them.

I agree. I suspect they watered down the story for money's sake. Also, since it's on Netflix it's even more likely the reason. Starting from this year due to poorer revenues as one of the policies Netflix started chopping its shows into parts to keep the viewers subscribed.

He's not a shifter. He's just in cohoots with the villains.

Good for you if you think that. But I think it's gonna be bad if it ends midway on a cliffhanger with no resolutions to the plot, the resolutions we'll have to wait for unknown amont of time until part 2 releases. I hope I'm wrong and this part's plot will be concluded, with some new one starting in part 2. But judging by how it keeps on dragging I kinda doubt it.
Also, by how it keeps on dragging and the amount of unnecessary meandering subplots and love triangles this show definitely could have been concluded in 20 episodes.

Ugh, that dragging fake Bu-Yeon scam really is endgame plot for part 1 by the looks of it 😒🥱

But not og Naksu.

But not og Naksu.

No, it's just it's confusing because of the bad synopsis and tangled introduction.
Their stepfather was killed by Adamas arrow and it was pinned on a guy, who will later be revealed to the writer twin by his mother to be their biological father. So, their biological father is on death row right now. He's got less than a month until the corrupt presidential candidate wins and reinstates death penalty. And same goes for his case's expiration of stature of limitations - if the twins won't prove the real culprit did it by that time, the culprit will walk scott free.

It has 15+ age rating, definitely not for toddlers. There are some scenes like assault, car crash, etc. that should not be shown to kids.

Btw, about Choi shaman. Maybe it's the woman in the first episode who lured people to feed them to her soul shifter son who ran wild? The one who was killed by Jang Kang?
She is bound by revenge on Songrim after all, maybe not only because of times past?

Yes, it has been dragging. Could have ended this show in 20 episodes, not 30.

Yea, she's a real dumbass, but I doubt it's the rags, her husband brought her all sorts of ragged girls over the years. The main criteria seems to be she has to be blind and can open the Jin vault. How she didn't take notice Mu-Deok went blind after opening the Jin vault twice in the mirror episodes is beyond me.

Only Songrim leader was known to have mastered it.

Or Uk and Naksu.

Didn’t look like he and Jin mother were that close when she came asking for his help, also would be awkward for lead couple.

Who knows, maybe? Just a theory, but at least it has some connections, unlike Seo general out of the blue, which would also make it even more awkward for Yul’s third wheeling.

Nobody knows anything about him apparently aside from grandpa Heo.
