There’s a new trailer out. Thanks, @Table122000 for keeping us informed!
And there’s even a translation, courtesy of soompi!!
The teaser begins with Lee Gon remembering the day in his childhood when a coup was staged against his father.
He asks, “Will it be here? The reason I survived that day?” Jung Tae Eul can then be heard asking, “Are you really from a different world?” and Lee Gon says, “It took 25 years for me to see you.” But his words are followed soon after by another voice that rings out with a warning, “You saw something you shouldn’t have.”
Lee Gon says, “I’m not out to catch someone, I’m here to look for a face that only I can find.” The teaser ends with Lee Gon and Jung Tae Eul embracing as they say, “Between one and zero. The person I loved.”
The bridle of this horse made me take a second look. I thought it had holes in its head.
If I were a horse, that extra strap running down the middle of my face would annoy me. Usually a bridle looks simple like this.
As for libraries, I think I like this dark wood library than
this Ikea library.
Also, thanks @agdr03 for that soompi link.
In the photos, Lee Gon—who is compelled by his unquenchable thirst for knowledge—is completely immersed in a book up until Jung Tae Eul arrives. However, upon seeing her, he is unable to hold back a pleased smile. Meanwhile, Jung Tae Eul gazes warily back at the emperor from across the table in a scene that is certain to make viewers’ hearts flutter
The producers of the drama commented, “Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun, who have made complete transformations into Lee Gon and Jung Tae Eul, will give viewers heartwarming feelings not unlike a warm spring breeze.”
They continued, “The unique romantic chemistry that Lee Minho and Kim Go Eun will display in ‘The King: Eternal Monarch’ will, like a spring shower, soak viewers’ hearts with emotion.”

I have a question for the hosts of this premiere party: Is there enough room on the bridge between Sarcastic and Cynical islands for us to bring guests? I’d like to invite Gu Jun Pyo. He’s a handsome young buck, rich and powerful, but I certainly wouldn’t want my daughter to date him. I think he’s got a lot of growing up to do. I’m thinking I’ll introduce him to the guest of honor, who is 10+ years his senior and has completed military service, hoping some positive influence will come into play.
After watching this latest trailer, I am worried that I won’t get a satisfying (happy) ending to this drama. I’m hoping I am wrong. I think the Kim Go Eun character in the King’s world, thief Luna, is the person who he saw or saved him as a kid, which is why he “recognizes” KGE in our world. According to info, Luna has cancer and only 3 months to live, so maybe the KGE the cop will somehow take Luna’s place in the King world.
“Is there enough room on the bridge between Sarcastic and Cynical islands for us to bring guests?”
O I am sure we will be accommodating. We’re a friendly bunch 😂 despite our penchant for snarkiness. The color on that horse begs belief. Did they airbrush it? Is it to emphasize that his Highness (May his name endure forever) is her whitest of white knights? Nary a speck/dirt should linger on its mane or coat as he rides his trusty steed across the universes in search of her (his ONE TRUE ❤️).
Who Gu Jun Pyo? 😂 Is he that guy from Boys over Flowers?
Sure, you can bring him. But don’t bring his friend. What’s his name? Kim Hyun Jong? THAT guy.
You know I must say this about Lee MinHo. I joke about his acting, English accent, pretty boy look, and whatever, but he’s never been in a scandalous or unethical controversy, right? I’ve to tip my hat to him for being good all these years. 🎩
Happy Easter 🐣 everyone!
May the Risen Lord bless us all! 🙏
@agdr03 He is risen indeed! Happy Easter.
@packmule3 I’ve mailed you the map of the islands. See if you like it 🙂
@Table122000 NO!!!! I hate open endings! 🙁 Let’s hope we have a happy ending!
@Welmaris Everyone is invited for the party on the bridge and if you bring eye candies as guests, you are extra welcome:P
@Phoenix- You got that right! I don’t like open endings either. Definitely want a happy ending here. I’d love it if they follow Shakespeare’s rule that Comedy ends with a wedding, but that’s not gonna happen given this writer’s track record. I sincerely hope for a satisfying ending, but I’m bracing myself for possible disappointment.
In addition to Netflix edition of Trailer 5,(which I put the link to at Trailer 5 post) SBS Drama has released several “moving character posters”. They are super short clips with 1-2 lines of dialog. These first 3 are of LMH, KGE, WDH. I imagine they will release the other characters over the rest of this week. Anyway, here are the links to the posters with english translation of the dialogs.
