The Korean drama, Alchemy of Souls, has struck the perfect balance between humor, romance, and heartache. The recently concluded second season, consisting of 10 captivating episodes, left fans thoroughly impressed. The show consistently garnered high ratings, with each episode surpassing the previous one in viewership.
The series was split into two parts - Part 1 was broadcasted from June 18 to August 28, 2022, spanning 20 episodes. Part 2, Alchemy of Souls: Light and Shadow," aired from December 10, 2022, to January 8, 2023, consisting of 10 episodes. With the conclusion of Part 2 on January 8, 2023, fans are eagerly anticipating the Alchemy of Souls Season 3.
Penned by the renowned Hong Sisters, the drama showcases the tales of youthful mages navigating the realms of heaven and earth. It revolves around Nak-su, a skilled warrior whose soul becomes accidentally trapped in the body of Mu-deok. This leads her to cross paths with Jang Uk, a member of a noble family, and she finds herself serving him.
If Alchemy of Souls does get renewed, it is likely that new episodes could arrive in 2024. However, it is uncertain if the series will be renewed, as K-dramas typically do not have multiple seasons, and the story seems to have concluded. Only time will tell if and when a third season is confirmed.
As of now, Netflix has neither announced nor canceled Season 3 of the series. It is too soon to expect a renewal announcement from the streaming platform, considering that the final episode of Season 2 aired in January 2023.
Despite the finale of Part 2 of Alchemy of Souls achieving the highest viewership ratings of the entire series, including Part 1, the streamer will still wait to gather relevant worldwide viewership data. Both Seasons 1 and 2 of the series are available on TVING and Netflix, making it difficult to predict a release window for Season 3. However, based on previous records, it is estimated that filming and editing would take around six months after renewal. This means that if renewed, Season 3 could arrive in 2024.
