Such a great analysis 👏👏👏. I think there should be an option to pin it on MDL .
Ahhahaha, that will lead to a MDL war, lol. But thank you, I have first written it in the discussion forum, and pasted it here for more audience to read.
Well, that's how it works. When you create a theory you'll argue that it's right until it's proven wrong. If you…
Yes, if not for other's rebuking them, you would just hold on to a theory and never let it go. It's best to read people's replies to see if they agree with it or not.
Time to distract myself from ominous theories, oh god the anxiety. Let's try to find the meaning behind the characters' names. FYI: I don't know how to speak Korean and Chinese (just a bit from watching C-drama), but since Korean also use Chinese characters to write their names, I can find the meaning from the Chinese characters with the help of Google Translate.
Let's start with our main characters list in MDL:
Jang Uk: 장욱, 張煜, Zhang Yu: Zhang here is a surname, so usually it doesn't have to have meaning. Yu means brilliant, or glorious. Fitting for a noble young master, and the future's king, ayy? Naksu: 낙수, 落壽, Luo Shou: Luo means falling, while Shou means life or longevity. Her codename as an assassin is really cool. This can be implied that whoever she meets will fall from their life a.k.a death. That's why she said it's such a beautiful name in ep 1. Ahahaha, our Naksu is so badass, and intimidating. Mu Deok: 무덕이, 無德, Wu De: Wu here means no, not, or don't. De means moral, or virtue. If Wu is her surname, it would be okay cuz we don't take it into account, but even if it's not the case, still her name together isn't a good one, who tf named their child immoral, lol?! Seo Yul: 서율, 徐律, Xu Lu: Xu as a surname, again no need to have meaning. But Xu means slow as a character, while Lu means discipline, restraint, or control. Fitting for Seo Yul cuz he's cold and aloof. He's the perfect young master that is good at everything. But if we take his surname into account too, he's too slow to get the girl ;-; Park Jin: 박진, 朴進, Pu Jin: Pu, again, as a surname. Jin means to advance or attack. (The same character of Attack Titan in AoT) Maidservant Kim Do Ju: 김도주, 金道主, Jin Daozhu: Jin, again, as a surname. Jin as a character means gold. Dao means path or way. Zhu means master or host. Other characters' names:
Park Dang-Gu: 박당구, 朴當具, Pu Dangju: Pu, again, as a surname. Dang means appropriate, proper, or right. Ju means tool or equipment. Jin Cho-Yeon: 진초연, 陳超妍, Chen Chaoyan: Chen, again, as a surname. As a character, it means to describe or ancient. Chao means to surpass, or exceed. Yan means beautiful. Well, she sure is beautiful. Jin Ho-Gyeong: 진호경, 陳湖警, Chen Hujing: Chen, again, as a surname. Hu means lake. Jing means alert, or vigilant. Jin Woo-Tak: 진우탁, 陳宇德, Chen Yude: Chen, again, as a surname. Yu means world or universe. De here also means moral, and virtue. Hmm... Same character as Mu Deok's name. Did he leave some trace with her name, so it would be easier to find her again? Jin Buyeon: 진부연, 陳...妍, Chen ...yan: I can't find her name in Chinese from the Wikipedia page, but her name and Cho Yeon's are only 1 character different, so I think the last character would be the same as Cho Yeon's name too. 부 Bu here in Google Translate is wealth instead. Ohh god, too many characters to write for, maybe I'll edit it later.
Omg omgCould be the ice stone inside the circle?!?!We have discussed this in theories topic. That circle at Mudeok's…
Yeah, but maybe only when the Ice Stone is in its full form they can put it into Naksu's sword's ring. MAYBE THAT'S THE ICE STONE THAT HAS BEEN STOLEN BY JANG KANG TO MAKE THE SOUL EJECTOR, BUT HE PUT IT INSIDE JANG UK!?!?!
He is insecure about his position. I wonder why. He got the throne from his brother and an heir as the crown prince.…
Sang ho? Who? Did you mean the conversation between Jang Kang and the king in ep 4? They were recalling back to the divination on the coronation of the king's day. Jang Kang told the king that he would have a child that has the King's Star's energy, and the king claiming Jang Uk to be his son.
He is insecure about his position. I wonder why. He got the throne from his brother and an heir as the crown prince.…
Well, actually it's impossible for her to be pregnant with Jang Kang's child. He was away from her for a whole year studying the Alchemy of Souls. Therefore, he couldn't have impregnated her beforehand. If that's the case, then when the King "visited" Lady Do Hwa, she would have delivered her child already. When Lady Do Hwa saw her husband back (It was the king's soul), she thought that her husband is back from his business, so she just assumed the King was Jang Kang and made love together that night.
