"The King: Eternal Monarch" Episode 15 Part 2: The World of Eternity and Infinity - Manpasikjeok
"I'll open all the doors in the universe. I will return to you," King Gon promised Tae Eul as he returns home to Corea.
Minister Koo met with Lee Rim. This time, he threatens her to do a task and to save her from her approaching death. She needs to give Lee Rim access to the upcoming Queen's birthday as he plans to attend.
The time had stopped as the obelisk is opened, King Gon returns to Corea. They rushed to the palace. Jo Yeong and his Majesty met Lady Ok-nam. King Gon thanked her for the trust and support from the past.
King Gon went through with his schedule with the secretary Mo. He learned that his cousin Seung Heon is on his way to the report. He discovered on his first travel that Seung Heon is the traitor to the family for letting Lee Rim escaped the night of the treason. As King Gon tried to go after Lee Rim, he encountered Seung Heon as one of the accomplices. He ordered right then that Seung Heon will be exiled from the Kingdom of Corea.
Shin Jae, for the first time, returned to Corea. He met his real mother, Park Sook Jin, on the bridge where she was about to commit suicide with him. Sook Jin asked forgiveness to her son, but Shin Jae decided to go away. He realized that she abandoned him and never fought back for his life.
King Gon shared with Shin Jae about his plans to return to the night of the treason. This time, he wanted to kill Lee Rim rather than letting him go. In this way, the future will be different, and there will be changes in everyone's journey. Once King Gon returns to the past and kills Lee Rim without letting him escape, a different path will happen and both two worlds will be saved.
Lee Rim returned to the Kingdom of Corea with Song Jeong Hye. He's preparing for a surprise for the people on the Queen's birthday. At the time of his lunch, Song Jeong Hye served his meal and tasted. To Lee Rim's shock, she got poisoned and lost her life. The time had stopped, he wasn't able to save her.
Lee Rim, carrying his shotgun, went to the stadium to meet King Gon. He intended to shoot him, but the gun didn't work as the time stopped. He's desperate to kill King Gon for getting in the way to acquire the world of eternity. But King Gon is focused on catching him and saving the world from destruction.
As time moves back, Jo Yeong shot Lee Rim in his right leg. They brought Lee Rim with them to the forest. Jo Yeong holds the other half of mystic bamboo, but it's not working. King Gon didn't hear the cry of the bamboo.
King Gon handed half of the mystic bamboo to lee Rim's hand and his obelisk door open. The Manpasikjeok was soaked with Lee Rim's blood, and so it only reacts when it is under his touch.
King Gon gets hold of both pieces and attached them, another obelisk opened. It is the gate of their forefathers. Lee Rim convinced King Gon for them to go inside the new obelisk - it is the door to eternity and infinity that he waited for a long time.
King Gon did not hear the flute's crying music. It means to say that the gate will not lead him to the night of the treason. He needs to go back to the past and make the Manpasikjeok cut into half and kill Lee Rim.
To go to the other world, which is Korea, someone will be keeping the piece of the mystic bamboo while waiting for the night of the treason.
Shin Jae brought Lee Rim to the station. Tae Eul was surprised to see him in custody (This is the first scene in episode 1). They interrogated him about what happened on the night of the treason. But Shin Jae did not share with Tae Eul the real story with King Gon as that was what he promised.
Tae Eul discovered that the time is now near. The world is about to collapse. She went to meet Lee Rim and asked for the Manpasikjeok. She plans to accompany Lee Rim as he returns to the past and be with him as they head to the axis realm.
She lets Luna get Lee Rim from the station as part of her plan and requested from Shin Jae to hand over the mystic bamboo.
Shin Jae admitted to Tae Eul his feeling's for her that he kept for a long time. He can't let her go to the axis and may not come back again. But Tae Eul pleaded to Shin Jae that he might allow her to do it for the one she loves - King Gon. If she isn't there, she will never see him again.
King Gon is ready to go back to the past, on the night of the treason. To kill Lee Rim on that very night rather than saving himself. He bids farewell to lady Ok-nam and advised her to let him go if they meet in her memory again.
At the entrance of the bamboo forest, Jo Yeong waited for his Majesty. He is bound to his loyalty to protect the King. They entered the axis realm together.
