Classic case of overanalyse from fans who pretends to understand the drama better than others but understand it even less, as it's not the beginning but the end. The end of beginning if you prefer, but also the beginning of the end, somehow. Start with the idea that anyway, nobody understand anything, and that there is actualy 395170 empty bottles of soju in the writer room. Then, buy yourself soju, big box of soju bottles, and try to compensate the difference and drink them. Then you will see the light.
Lee Gon saved himself but that's another Lee Gon right? And not this Lee Gon we're seeing all the time.
It's the same, but you don't see when, why and how. You have to guess all that with the bit nothing the drama give you. And then, you squezze your buttock, hoping you guessed right.
List of Lee Rim's plans thus far and what they've amounted to.- Steal the manpashikjeok and overthrow his brother…
- Yo, I'm the main villain! Look how bad I am! I'll even kill a kid! - And what did you do after that? - Uh, well, nothing, actually. - For 25 years, you didn't try to kill that kid again? - It wouldn't be fair, I'd rather wait until he was an adult. - But you did try to... - (cold, threatening stare) - Um, okay, so what did you do when he was an adult? - Nothing, either, I didn't have time. - ... ?!!?!?!
Yeah, but the ball, why, the ball's spinning? And even if it's spinning, why would the fluid in the pen flow over it? Well, then why isn't the syringe working? I'm not picky about this kind of thing. It doesn't really impact the story much. It's very easy to forget a detail hidden in the script and create a little inconsistency like that. It's very risky this kind of process. Objects interact, but we don't know how much. Lee Gon grows leaves in the air during a timestop. Why do the leaves retain kinetic energy after that? We can only say that objects with a mechanism don't work. Anyway, I won't dwell on that subject until it's more important.
The main concept may be brilliant but the script is not well written and definitely it is badly executed (editing…
"We will never know." It's quite sure. Potential is here. And there is no many plot-hole. Just clear the ranks, focus on clarity, get a intense storyline and don't go elsewhere so randomly. But we'll never see this, sadly.
Strange, if the script contains the usual indication at the beginning of the scene such as : "ROK, market square, day". That should be easier to understand than in the drama?! Or maybe the script doesn't give any indication about the world? So just : "Market square, day".
Hi. No, you're wrong. It wasn't lazy. I was tired and I went to sleep. My explanation could take a long time to write and involve several plots. For the magic pen, I can answer quickly, it's explained here, point 6: https://mydramalist.com/discussions/the-king-the-eternal-monarch/49019-a-quick-summary-of-ktem-from-ep-1-to-ep-15 As you can see, I'm not being snobbish. And I conduct my own investigations without waiting for others, and write it when I have time. You can see on this blog (comment of 07/06/2020 at 1.19pm) : https://bitchesoverdramas.com/2020/06/05/the-king-eps-14-and-15-open-thread/#comment-30155 The last part is about my progressive reflection on the process of time travel. And all this is long to explain, and to explain it properly, you have to work on the clarity of the writing and the explanation. You can contradict me, give me indications to know where I'm wrong, but to say that it's lazy, you just have to see this comment to have the proof of the contrary!
Could someone explain the last part of ep15? I don't get, after LG, LR Shinjae and JY were at the bamboo forest…
I'm too tired to explain, but yeah, it's just useless messy and confusing narrative, making you don't understand something very simple. This show stand on that since beginning.
Damn, I spotted a new plot-hole. And this one, it's for sure. Until now I was ok, even minors flaws, like the "magic pen". But here, it's quite big. Well, I feel like I leave the world of SF and enter the world of fantasy.
There's no plot-hole, or very little.That's not the big problem in this scenario!
I found websites with drama screenplays. (do a search, because I don't have the link at hand). But everything is in Korean. This should not be confused with the transcripts. A transcript is not the original screenplay, so be careful, because often the transcripts are in English. KTEM script has not been published, but maybe one day it will be.

Not an happy, sad or open ending : A messy ending !
I would be very disapointed otherwhise. ^^

- And what did you do after that?

- But you did try to...

- Um, okay, so what did you do when he was an adult?
- Nothing, either, I didn't have time.
- ... ?!!?!?!

So just :

What's funny, people didn't find it. It's related to ep14.

I wasn't sure.
Now I am.
