“The King: Eternal Monarch” Episode 14 Part 2: How Far Did King Gon Go To Follow His Destiny?
As King Gon went back and forth the obelisk, he realized that he stayed in 1994. The present Lee Rim died where half of the bamboo vanished, leaving King Gon holding the other half. He needs to travel by time literally. The travel will take him four months inside the axis, which is equivalent to 26 years in both worlds to return to the year 2020.
To make the most of his time, he went to the Republic of Korea and met the five-year-old Tae Eul in their backyard. Each memory he touches, the past gives an effect on the present world of the people he encounters.
In 2020, Tae Eul recovers a new memory, seeing King Gon talking to her with words, "I will be there soon, I am on my way." He sends messages to the present through their memories.
Meanwhile, in the present year (2020) in the Republic of Korea, Tae Eul is in search of Song Jung Hye and one of Lee Rim's right hand. They need to get in touch with them to stop them from killing people and giving them a new life from the Kingdom of Corea. She is on the lookout for Luna to show up and do harm to her family.
In the absence of Lee Rim, Ms. Baek is in charge of hiding Song Jung Hye and the armed men from Corea.
Tae Eul, through time, learned that King Gon is traveling back to Corea and is trapped in the axis realm of the past. She went back to the bamboo park and got inside the phone booth. She found that in the same place in a different realm, King Gon is with her.
In 2016, King Gon went to see Tae Eul. He greeted her and told her about their next meeting in the future. In this avenue, as King Gon comes across to meet anyone from the past. It gives a new memory to the people in the present.
What King Gon did to meet Tae Eul sent a new memory to Tae Eul of his message that he is making efforts to meet her again. He sent a message through writing on the wood of the phone booth that he is on his way to find her.
At present, Tae Eul is after Luna, and with Eun Sup's help, she gets to know each time Luna gets near her father. Luna, together with Na Ri, joined Jung Do In to buy groceries for house supply.
From a distance, Tae Eul saw Luna trying to get along with them. She followed Luna and met her in one of the dark alleys. Luna waited for her and stabbed her with a knife. She had warned Tae Eul before that if they meet, she will kill her in an instant.
Tae Eul fell, holding her stomach and gasping for breath. She reaches out to her pocket for her phone. She contacted for an emergency rescue asking for back up.
Another new memory flashes to Tae Eul. This time, King Gon arrived in Korea riding Maximus wandering the busy road. Tae Eul urges her past self to hug King Gon, which she changed the events of the past.
