The King: Eternal Monarch

King Gon embraced Officer Tae-Eul as he had been longing to see her after that painful night in the year 1994. Tae-Eul pushed him and tried to stay focused by interrogating him for any violations. Tae-Eul asked for his ID and his reasons for showing in the middle of the street with a horse. King Gon didn't have any ID with him, and his explanation wasn't enough for Tae-Eul to believe. He was brought to the station for further examination.

At the office, King Gon tried to explain his status but Tae-Eul continued to dismiss his words. She asked all his materials to surrender and check each of the items. King Gon tried to pull away from her arms since no one had ever touched his body. Tae-Eul was strong enough to grab his hands for fingerprints.

Court Lady Ok-Nam was worried as King Gon didn't return since they lost his whereabouts. She asked help from Yong In, one of the royal family members, to come up with a plan to keep the king busy. Jo Young, together with his men, searched the forest until night time. They lost King Gon's track in the middle of the bamboo forest and no other leads after that. Jo Young asked to talk with the two prisoners who might have known about "White Rabbit."

Jo Young tried to get more information form the prisoners but they didn't have the full details of the lady. They call her "Luna" who get their money through scams. Jo Young then asked the police to prepare the recording videos around the place.

King Gon, now behind bars, asked for a chair from Tae-Eul. He mentioned that he never tried to sit on the floor. Tae-Eul didn't answer back and continued to work on her desk. Jo Eunsup came in and asked why he kept on calling to the officer. King Gon looked at him and surprised to see a familiar face - it's Jo Young!

Although his hair and dress are different from what he used to in Corea, Eo Eunsup past a document to Tae-Eul informed her that it comes from his department. He took one sachet of juice and made a dance move with it. King Gon dropped his jaw and confirmed that he is not Jo Young. Jo Eunsup possesses good vibes and jokes around in the station. He smiles by showing his teeth and closing his eyes. The forensic team cannot find any records using King Gon's fingertips.

Tae-Eul released King Gon as it will give her more work to do since no records under his name. No place to go, King Gon requested to visit a jewelry shop nearby. Tae-Eul brought him to one of the shops. King Gon took out a piece of his buttons and pawned it for cash. The owner checked the authenticity of the stone and told them it is his first time to see such a rare diamond. He gave the money worth for the stone.

King Gon used the money to rent a big suite room of a hotel. He advised Tae-Eul that he wishes to stay longer in her world to study about parallel universes, though one of his main reasons is he wanted to spend more time with her.

King Gon made 13 attempts until Jo Eunsup picked up his call. He asked him to accompany him to buy clothes. He bought stuff for Eunsup and, at the same time, asked to see his family picture. Looking at the picture, Eunsup and his father looks different than the one Jo Young has back in the kingdom.

The next day, King Gon visited shops around the city. He kept on calling Tae-Eul to describe his experience, but Tae-Eul always ends the call. He loves the bread that tastes like the one he ate for breakfast. He also likes the clothes and bought a lot for him to use.

Meanwhile, Ye Rim enjoys painting the temple with colors that he created. He is thankful to the monk as he got the chance to paint the walls. Ye Rim still holds the power of the "Manpasikjeok." He helps people in suffering and turns their evil wish to reality.
