The King: On the God Complex
I’m posting my reply to @growing_beautifully here because it’s long. @pkml3 Hah! I know what I did, and I succeeded. It was to get your take on the MYTH. My nonsense below is filled with questions, but don’t worry, I’m just posing them and if you feel like answering them, please do… but I’m also […]
The King: Eternal Monarch:: Where in the World is Lee Gon?
My go to blog when I want information on filming location sites is flyhoneystars.com. (No, I’m not paid to advertise her site.) She does a thorough job of researching the sites in a timely manner. Here’s the link to her blog: Filming Location: The King Eternal Monarch The pictures are hers. Please give her credit should […]
The King: Eternal Monarch:: Bamboo or Tree?
I see what you did there, @Growing_Beautifully there. 😊 I know you and your friends on the other site have been trying to make me change my mind and say that the Manpasikjeok comes from a bamboo tree…err…grass, bamboo grass. Bamboo is classified as grass, right? But my answer remains the same. That is, I’m […]
The King: Math for Bitches
There’s no correlation between bitches and dunces. We’re a pretty smart bunch here. There were plenty of math jokes in these past two episodes so let’s see if we can clear them up. If you have a better explanation, math wizards, then share it with us. Don’t be shy to show your inner geekiness. And […]
The King: Birds, Bees, and Horses
@nrllee shared this instagram clip of Lee Gon and his horse Maximus. Thanks, @nrllee. It reminded of that old Carpenters song, “Close to You.” I’m posting the YT music so you can listen to it while staring at this clip. By the way, @Phoenix, @agdr03 and the Shallow Island residents, are you still taking guesses […]
The King: Eternal Monarch: A Death Foretold
Update: 4/28/2020: I see mass hysteria on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook. Look: I didn’t say that she’s going to stay dead forever and ever and ever. She can come back from the dead and be drinking watermelon-flavored soju before we can even say “Happy Halloween!” Trust in LG. He’ll have to find a way to […]
The King: The Incredible Moving Scar
We’ve been going over this all morning, and that’s why I love you, ladies. We don’t mind spending time over details. You’re all correct. I blame the actor, director and editor for sloppy work. Sigh…. A = Half of the flute that was aimed at the (child’s) left side of the throat B = Half […]

The King: On the Bad Uncle Lee Lim
@growing_beautifully, this reminds me This reminds me of our back-and-forth conversation in “Hotel del Luna.” These are *my* explanations. I don’t know if KES felt the same way, but this is how I understood the show. I’m still on Cynical Island. Most because of the Qn: what’s the point of Lee Lim carrying out regicide […]
The King: Why is He Eternal?
@growing_beautifully, I’ll answer this one first because people are getting confused about this two worlds and time-loop. I say that there are only TWO parallel worlds. As of Episode 2, there’s NO evidence that there’s more than two. This is what you wrote. But forget it for now. 🙂 The ID does NOT work that […]
The King: Eternal Monarch: The Timeline
I’m reposting @welmaris’ timeline here for our reference. Thanks, @welmaris! This is really helpful. You saved me the work. Timeline summary: -1987: Crown Prince Lee Gon born in KOC -1987 Oct 28: Lee Ji Hun born in ROK (LG parallel) -1990 May 27: Jeong Tae Eul born in ROK -1994 Dec 08: Evil Prince arrives […]
The King: Eternal Monarch: The Old Court Lady
@s.moureen commented: Insightful explanation, pkm3, the Ultimate Show Whisperer! Thank you. Glad I finally know why the ceiling fell. But would we need an oracle, if these episodes didn’t have flaws? A show referencing Alice-ah Through the Looking Glass shouldn’t be talking onscreen about Alice in Wonderland. That creates purposeless confusion. In an Ep 1, […]
