The Kingdom of Corea
While traveling on his private plane, King Gon and Tae-eul communicated by using their hands, which shocked Secretary Mo and Captain Jo. When they reached the palace, King Gon prepared dinner for Tae-eul. She went around Seoul with less money and ate a sandwich the whole day. Tae-eul realized how King Gon's life growing up and admired him for being honest in what he did. At the dinner table, King Gon showed Tae-eul her ID and praised his cooked food for her, albeit casually.
Captain Jo gave Tae-eul's fingerprint to the forensic team, hoping to get any clue. He received a call from NSC about an emergency meeting and informed King Gon right away.
In her deep thoughts about King Gon, Prime Minister Koo received a call regarding Japan's ships about to enter Corea's sea jurisdiction. She called for an urgent meeting with the National Security Council. Japan tried to penetrate Corea's territory without permission for the third time. She was convinced that negotiations from the previous attempts were enough, and this time, they need to make a bigger stand. She then asked King Gon for his decision.
King Gon sorted to protect and stand firm in handling Japan's move through war. For the past 25 years, this is the first time that King Gon wears the naval suit and he advised Tae-eul that he wouldn't be able to send her off. He gave her the ID and asked her to wait for him. Tae-eul felt sad and bade him farewell as she headed back to her world.
The Republic of Korea
Detective Tae-eul hugged her father after arriving home. To keep herself occupied, she kept herself busy solving cases and capturing criminals with her team. But she still waits to meet the king and wishes to know what happened in his world.
The Kingdom of Corea
King Gon is determined to protect his country. He set foot on naval ships as the Commander-in-Chief of Corea. By raising the King's flag is the sign that the King is on board and manages the command. King Gon made the soldiers ready for advanced action.
The Japanese ship continued to move forward and already entered the territory of Corea. They were within view in King Gon's direction. Captain Jo worried about the King's presence and safety, but he advised them to focus on protecting the country instead of him.
King Gon commanded Major Choe to be ready for the warning shots. Corea's naval jets and tanker ships moved forward through his command. King Gon proceeded to send out warning shots to Japan's warship. After a few minutes, Japan stopped sailing forth and retreated. King Gon felt relieved as well as the soldiers on board.
