The fantasy romance series "Alchemy of Souls" is finally coming back with more episodes this winter to sate viewers' thirst for the magical, tragic and heart-fluttering love lines of powerful mages!

Many avid K-drama viewers all around the world clamor over Lee Jae Wook and Go Yoon Jung's return and if you're one of them, here are some series you should watch while waiting for Part 2!

'Arthdal Chronicles'

Named as the South Korean version of "Game of Thrones," Song Joong Ki's "Arthdal Chronicles" is a fantasy series that, like "Alchemy of Souls," dwells with fantasy and politics at the same time.

The series is set in the Ancient times in Arthdal where a military force is led to control the land. Two chosen representatives of the Wahan Tribe are set to save their nation before it's too late.

During its run, the series also dominated the global charts and gained a massive following. At the same time, "Arthdal Chronicles" has also been green-lit for a new season so stay tuned!

'Lovers of the Red Sky'

Kim Yoo Jung and Ahn Hyo Seop's "Lovers of the Red Sky" is much similar to "Alchemy of Souls" in terms of its themes; fantasy, romance and fictional history.

While "Alchemy of Souls" deals with soul-shifting magic, "Lovers of the Red Sky" focuses on the romance of a blind painter and an astrologer whose fate lies on his lover despite being able to read the future.

Apart from that, the series also has a political touch to it, much like "Alchemy of Souls," when the Prince does everything he can in his power to become the next Joseon King.

'Goblin'

Another cult classic, Gong Yoo, Kim Go Eun, Lee Dong Wook and Yoo In Na's "Goblin" is simply one of the best works ever released in K-drama history.

Like "Alchemy of Souls," the series is equipped with excellent cinematography, CGI effects, heart-thumping love lines and a star-studded soundtrack.

While Lee Jae Wook and Jung So Min in Part 1 dealt with soul-shifters and a powerful spell, Gong Yoo and Kim Go Eun figured their way out when a 1000-year-old goblin falls in love with a mortal.

Like "Alchemy of Souls," it's packed with romance, fantasy and even comedy!

The series follows the story of a man and a woman's truce after they spend their lives trying to take down one another.

"Korean Odyssey" is a well-written drama with complex characters that will surely hook viewers' interests. This 20-parter series is truly worth the time!

'Hotel del Luna'

When it comes to fantasy, IU's "Hotel del Luna" shouldn't be missed! Though it's not as outstanding as others when it comes to storyline, the series doesn't back down when it comes to production! 

Anyone will love the entertaining CGI and camera effects, as well as the top class acting performances of the actors.

"Hotel del Luna" tells the story of a cursed woman who's tied to the hotel that houses the dead before it enters the afterlife. It's a whole package deal; from romance, comedy, drama and horror!

BONUS: Another IU drama on the list, "Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo" is just as gut-wrenching as "Alchemy of Souls" and you should definitely watch it now!
