too bad for the exes that I'm done with noble idiocy. I feel like knowing he left her because he is sick/was more…
I really knew there was something behind that sudden disappearance my only concern is that knowing Do Hee and the love signals Hae Kyung gives her will make her doubt him, because I know for sure he is over his first love and today's episode proved it, he just doesn't know how much he is into DH.....
I loved this episode, they are evolving as dinner mates (ahem) and I knew there was a back story of that sudden disappearance of that ex.....I think her ex will create more conflict to our lover birds in the future than his ex, it seems He has zero feelings, he is complete over her already, or at least in today episode we can see that.....but she is such a good person and Hae Kyung keep sending her the wrong love signals she will be in a dilemma in the near future. Anyhow I looooooooove their chemistry every time they are on my screen together I have this stupid smile on my face lmao......
The Lee Lim in 1994 killed the time-traveling one from 2020. Then the 1994 Lee Lim continued to live as what happened…
Thanks I will read into because I have over 30+ years of life watching tv and movies and believe it all makes sense to me but THIS Im still scratching my head about it....
This drama is amazingggg.... I love every aspect of it from the time travelling to showing where the loophole…
Dont worry I am here for the ride I don't put too much into Fantasy/dramas I enjoy what the writers try to pull if the actors/characters are convincing enough I stick around I have with this one and Im not an over the hills Lee Min Ho fan I just like the set of actors/characters and the plot eventhough is a little difficult to follow I kind of did somethings are confusing but then make sense within the story itself not with reality if not it wouldn't be a fantasy drama.......I didn't stick around for Goblin and that was a super/huge drama...... according to some....
I need help maybe they have talked about it before but its in spoilers but my brain is too saturated right now....how come LR is still alive on ep 15 after what happened on ep 14?????
Even though I was bashing this show, it is still enjoyable and funny to watch yet not entirely original, which…
Ive been wanting to watch that one always start but need to be on a binge watching mood I think Im by episode 2....but much time traveling dramas take material from other works I guess to keep up with same theories of time traveling which is not existent at this time....
OK I dont know about plot holes, quantum space time traveling, parallel worlds, theories....I have enjoyed this drama so much like on a weekly basis not a Min Ho or Go Eun fan, I just think it was special and finally my only negative thing I had from the drama changed after episode 10 I saw that chemistry that lacked in the first 9 episodes Finally and by episode 15 just finished it I loved it so much critical about this I dont understand why I always the minority lol, I hated Goblin but loved the King lol well.....
Well, my daughter is a Kpop fan so we will go to Korea when she turns 16 y/o we are 6 years away, in the meantime whenever I go to NYC or LA I go to Korea town and I get to taste their food, I usually go once or twice a month since I live in NJ but with the shutdown I have been craving watching all those dramas, but there are a lot of Korean places in NJ and NY community is big, my boss is Korean and Im account manager for like 3 or 4 Korean companies, so Ive already got myself the taste of it and my kids love it as well......
I've been into dramas for the past 8 years and watched over 300 dramas, Im here for entertaining I love theories…
I dont mind either way, to each its own, I just estate my stance.... I dont care lol either is good or bad...I PERSONALLY pay for Netflix to watch a show and Im enjoying it either is good or bad is up to me Im the one spending my money and time :) !!!!! I just don't over analyze things I have so little time on my hands like to make theories and overanalyzing, I do come here and read some of the comments this is amusing...Im a manager at a big company Dramas are my escape......but my head already explodes in real life!!!!!! So Im not debating it....I enjoy it as it is....I didn't enjoy Goblin millions did... :)
I don't!!!!! that's my point I don't put too much sense into the complexity of the parallel universes, the wand, Alice in wonderland references, the rabbit, let alone the time traveling etc. (fantasy wise) that's to the writers/writer free will I just try to be open minded and because at the end of the day with all these fantasy like dramas nothing makes sense so I don't want to end up disappointed so I just go with the flow and enjoy what is put out there :/ !!!!!!!
but let me answer to some of your so many questions how I understood:
—Why is shin-jae doppelgänger kept alive? one of them was in a comma, he still don't know who is who, LeeRim was manipulating the mom in the other world eventually if one wakes up he had no need of one of them hence he was going to kill him thats why he took him.
—that is a one kiddish portrait of LG, was it painted at a carnival fair while blind-folded? that was the point of Lee Rim he got some ammateurish painter to make him look like that one of his moves.
—if Luna wants the whip so bad, she should just put lg to sleep with a tranquilizer gun. Poison takes time for effect lol - She wanted to kill him, she doesnt know or Lee Rim knows Keung is there with him they might think he was going to die right there.
—Luna is now an official villain, wooohooo. She’s willing to murder anyone you accomplish her goals, tempting her was so easy in a previous episode. I think her purpose is to kill TH so she can have a transplant, is either her or TH thats what LR promised her remember when sshe was running from where he had her kidnapped he said I still need something from her. (assuming her organ for Luna) he wants to use Luna as the king weakness or something.
— Eun Seop can afford a $2000 plus iron man mask? He’s rolling lol was given in the other world either by the Kind or real Kyung
—what are the images/photographs that we see floating on the vacuum space? I think those are the LR pictures he takes of the people remember he takes pictures from people both worlds.
—why is it when the flute is whole, “it takes you to the moment when you wish to save yourself?” According to the legend, when the flute is a whole it takes you to the time where you want to be.
—I see the plant in the vacuum space is growing, why? N/A maybe there is a way.
—why won’t this episode explain LR motive for wanting to rule over both worlds? When will the show explain? I missed that part that he wanted to rule both worlds I thought only the Kindom of Corea I think it would be more complicated Republic of Korea since he is placing the DH's in the Kingdom and getting read of the shitty ones in the republic.
—how did lee rim from 2020 time travel to 1994? The flute was a whole in the time space so both of them could go to the time and place they would want to.
— If he has access to the entire flute, why would he need to travel back in time? What is he trying to prevent? He still has not, he is going back and forth to the time space since he is counting the many times he has to stay there in order to go back to 2020.
—WTF why did 1994 LR kill 2020 LR? Because he thinks 2020 LR failed? In what way did he fail? 1994 LR, why don’t you take the time to process instead of acting rashly and killing your future self ? It’s yourself, listen to yourself. —this got to be the most stupid villain of all time. Because he is greedy and still stupid,he didn't believe himself (future) I think he will go back again tto 2020 and get the flute somehow, remember at the beginning SJ and TH are questioning a bloody face LR with a black suit it seems it is past LR in 2020, so he still alive and will find a way to come to Republic of Korea.
—If 2020 LR is dead, how will 1994 LR live past 2020? He set himself an hourglass. my response above.
—If 2020 LR flute piece vanished, won’t it be the same for LG? So is LG now stuck in Korea forever ? it did...when he went for the first time to Korea 1994 —yo-yo boy is the flute. But how? He’s the spirit of the flute, so if the flute is split in two, shouldn’t he be split into two. But more than that, how can he be separated at such a long distance from the flute pieces? n/a
—how did 2020 LG traveled back in time? response above...they were both in the space tunnel or whatever and they both realize time stops and both traveled back same time.
—it’s nice seeing LG being John Wick with his badass action scenes. ditto
—how can 1994 lady noh trust 2020 lg? He’s a relative stranger to her. She didn’t see him rescue 1994 lg. She just let him go. she already crossed the parallel universes and probably LG grandfather explained her what the whole flute does, and that's probably a new memory.
—I miss strong TE. This girl just keep crying. I’m glad editing was so bad that they cut her crying scene short lol Now with the new inserted memories her deep love makes sense it trascend time and space lol
—wow so anticlimactic, SJ was a bonus for selling the care center to LR. Thats why he was switched over? That’s the big reveal? What a waste of SJ arc, they could had enriched the story by making SJ being LR son. This is garbage. SJ isn’t even crucial to the story with this reveal. So if he is eliminated from the story, nothing would change much. Wasted opportunity. There is still something more, the father told him he wanted to see him to bring it to him why? and he is saving his DH for a reason.....remember he is crucial because the mom at the palace. or you wanted to him royal? also he has been the one helping along TH in Republic of Korea.
—I have to travel through 26 years to get to the year 2020. —four months in vacuum space will translate to 26 years. Wasn’t the formula 1 day equal 2 months? •26 years X 12 (1 year = 12 months)= 312 months •312 months divide by 2 months(1 day = 2 months)= 156 days •156 days divide by 30days(1 month=roughly 30 days) = 5.2 months —if my calculations is correct, he’s off by one month. SOMETHING LIKE THAT LOL
—what’s the point of visiting 1994 TE? And won’t that alter her memories? IT DID...that was the purpose so when that awkward moment at the beginning of episode 1 changed to a warmer feeling of longiness :)
—1994 TE is dense as dirt. She says she thinks lg is a kidnapper but acts nonchalant and stays in one position instead of crying and running away LOL DENSE...SHE HASN'T CHANGED A BIT!
—I don’t understand the phone call, how is it intercepted in 2020? Is the 1994 and 2020 timelines also parallel worlds of each other? That's her friend from forensic 2020 following the cold case of the family that phone call was not evidence a minute ago she probably went through it many times and she found it now so it is something unprescedent for her that doesn't know sh.....
—the music is pretty
—what’s the point of the preg lady? What’s the point of keeping her alive and now giving her the chance to switch back? Is 1994 LR bored and he wants preg lady and counterpart to duke it out just like how he killed his future self? She will help LR she has power if Im not mistaken she belongs to the most prominent families IMO now she will do whatever to help him.
—I don’t get it, if future LR is dead. Who is the villain in control in 2020? the one in the past.
—how come there isn’t much ripples if the past is altered? 2020 LR being dead should cause a massive waves of changes esp in 1994 strategies. Noooo the one dead is the one in the present, there still one in the past he can still change to that point of not going back to himself again or something like that we will see in next 2 episodes.
—why don’t 2020 LR steal the whole flute and just hand it off to the 1994 LR? That's what I think he tried to tell his old self to kill LG and get the flute for himself.
—why is there a random phone booth in the bamboo forest in the first place? the bamboo forest must be near the city like a park in the middle of the city everytime he goes back there is people around.
—so all of TE memories will be altered with 2020 LG visits, won’t this change everything in the future? Their interactions and their relationship will be different in 2020. What’s the point of all this? IT DID.... :/
—why is the music so beautiful? But nothing makes sense lol
—the time freezes are shorter than I thought it would be... I figure it should be in the months and years by now, length wise.
—Luna is a bigger villain than prime minister at the moment. What’s with the attempted murder? Why is Luna so feeling bitter and taking it out on her doppelgänger? Girl, TE didn’t cause your life to suffer, it was the oppressive society in corea that made it difficult for those living in the slums. SHE HAS NOTHING AND HAS A TERMINAL ILLNESS SO WTF.......
—the cliffhanger is interesting. Why doesn’t LG recognize TE/Luna doesn’t he still have the photo id?
—I still don’t get why Luna kissed SJ last episode? maybe she felt the urge lol
—The villains on this show is so 1D that it’s making me mad. I like him lol
—the show still fails to explain what triggers the time freezes. Is it due to world traveling? Is it due to killing doppelgängers? Why are the time pauses so short? WTF the time freezes when someone is passing the portal but only both royals feel it, I guess it depends how much people are crossing the path that's why it takes longer sometimes or the time LR stays in the time zone.
—what the point of JY? He is a useless character OMG I love him he is the Kings avatar :)
—the lady noh being from Korea/past king world-traveling contradicts the time freezes. Nope time freezes in the tunnel not in the respective worlds if not JS wouldn't have grown up or the DH......
Goddamn my head hurts so much from reading thr soompi forums of TKEM. There are so many things I missed and some…
I've been into dramas for the past 8 years and watched over 300 dramas, Im here for entertaining I love theories and stuff I just don't over analyze things, to be fact checked for God's sake this a fantasy drama....my only put off was the romance, but now on episode 14 after he planted all those seeds through out her timeline it makes sense, her cold behavior in earlier episodes so I guess her interactions with LeeGon will be more realistic now as she was part of his past now he is also. So it all makes sense, I really enjoyed this drama side characters, villaians and main leads did a good job IMO and Im not even one of those fan girls of Min Ho, I think this is the only drama I have enjoyed of him tbh...
of this drama I like main leads all interactions, the nurse/assistant parts, the office interaction/characters…
If it is what I think, he never goes home or socializes so he stays at the worksite all the time, I did feel bad for him when they were going for a drink and everyone was bailing out he was the only going to go and then everyone disappeared so yeah he is like the outcast but if Im not wrong he even kind of cried.......
