King Gon and Jung Tae-eul unexpectedly met Prime Minister Koo in the center of Seoul. Jung Ta-eul didn't mention her name but introduced herself as a traveler in the Kingdom. The two left, making Koo unhappy to see him happy with another woman.

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.

Prime Minister Koo sent her recognition to the King's effort and issued a press statement towards Japan. 

King Gon and Tae-eul in Danger as Lee Lim Plots Something

Tae-eul bought seeds from the Kingdom of Corea. Although King Gon explained to her that nothing comes alive in the center of the dimension that divides the parallel worlds, but she also sowed seeds in the dimensional land because imaginary flowers may someday sprout. She thought of King Gon and their memories together.

Then, she studied a voice recorded clip, and it shocked her of what she discovered: the mystery of Corea and Prince Buyeong. 

The Kingdom of Corea

The staff recovered a hair rubber which belongs to Tae-eul. King Gon received it and felt happy as something is left behind that reminds him of her presence. He kept it and went to sleep.

Lady Noh prepared a good dinner for the King. She tries her best to protect him at all costs. Captain Jo is still working hard to find any data about Tae-eul, but the forensic team found no traces from her fingerprint. Captain Jo showed her picture to one of the gangsters, and they confirmed that Tae-eul's picture is Luna. They described her as good with scamming and illegal transactions with the gang. The police couldn't locate where Luna was hiding. Luna exists in Corea and looks exactly the same as Tae-eul.

Prince Buyeong arrived and King Gon right away met him. His uncle gave him the original death certificate of the fake corpse of Lee Lim. It showed contradicting reports from Lee Lim's original condition. King Gon silently confirmed that the man who wished to kill him is still alive. He was convinced that Lee Lim knows the parallel world and will come for the other half of the 

"Manpasikjeok" to complete his evil plans.  

The Republic of Korea

A rainy day at the Alley tea shop, Na Ri served tea to Lee Lim, who was looking around the place. He smiled and informed Na Ri that he would frequently visit the place. The tea shop is in front of Tae-eul's house. He plans to know the people who are close to his nephew King Gon. Lee Lim stepped outside the tea shop and met Eun Sup and his kids. Thunder showed off the red-lighted streaks on his face that feared the child. 

Later that evening, as Tae-eul parked her car and looked at the tea shop. Her eyes lit up. King Gon was standing there, waiting for her.

Tae-eul stepped out of the car with teary eyes and looked at King Gon. He asked her if she waited for him. She nodded and ran towards him. The two shared a tight embrace as Tae-eul didn't hold back on expressing how much she longed to see him again.

King Gon brought Tae-eul with him to his Kingdom Corea. He also paid Na Ri a diamond instead of bills for his debt. Officer Shin Jae looks for Tae-eul and Na Ri tells him that she went away with King Gon. Shin Jae messaged Tae-eul, but with no reply, it makes him wonder where she is.

The Kingdom of Corea

King Gon convinced Tae-eul that his world existed and that he is, in fact, a King. He brought Tae-eul in a new dimension that stands in between both worlds. King Gon is in the process of figuring out its relation to him and the parallel worlds.

Tae-eul is overwhelmed with the things that happened around her. She tries to check Jo Young's gun and points at King Gon. Jo Young moves fast in shielding King Gon with his own body as the gun points at his head. King Gon advises Tae-eul that his kingdom and his men will do whatever he commands as their king. Tae-eul released the gun and returned it to Jo Young.

Court lady Noh advises Jo Young to use the sea route in coming back to the palace. This way no one will see Tae-eul with the king. King Gon travels the sea with Tae-eul in his grandiose yacht. He also allowed her to stay in his private residence, the Gwangyeongjeon. They all get a surprising welcome from Court lady Noh who waited for their arrival at the king's living room.

Lady Noh tried her best to protect the King's activities, especially when he bought a woman in the palace. She reprimanded King Gon to be more cautious with his actions. Lady Noh sent Seung-ah to meet Tae-eul and bring green tea for her to be able to relax. Tae-eul was surprised to see Seung-ah. In Korea, Seung-ah is known as Na Ri, a building owner who operates a tea shop. In the Kingdom of Corea, she works as a PR officer in the palace.

The King will have a full schedule for the following day, but he thinks of ways to be with Tae-eul in order to spend time together. Meanwhile, Captain Jo was alone with Tae-eul in the living room and she suspectingly ask about her background and her intentions. Tae-eul replied that she is more confused than Captain Jo.

King Gon prepared Tae-eul's dinner. Captain Jo and Seunah are surprised to see him with the trolley. Tae-eul requested an alcoholic beverage as well. They spend a few minutes together as Tae-eul tries to eat her meal. Lady Noh arrived and wished to send Tae-eul to her bedroom. King Gon always agrees and follows Lady Noh's requests.

In her bedroom, Lady Noh advised Tae-eul what to do as she's trying to know about the palace. She reminds Tae-eul to keep everything in secret and not to stay longer, especially that she's beginning to be fond of King Gon. Tae-eul only asked Lady Noh why they all knew about her. Lady Noh shared with her the story of an ID with her name and King Gon kept it since he was a young boy. Lady Noh left Tae-eul in her room feeling down for a moment.

King Gon entered Tae-eul's room through the window. He brought a can of beer to lighten up her mood. King Gon felt happy and showed his romantic feelings to Tae-eul. They talked about her thoughts and his fun memories back in her world.

King Gon then sits beside Tae-eul on the floor and makes himself comfortable as he puts his head on her shoulder. She asked if the King has really not tried to be on any date with a lady until she came. 

King Gon then looks at her and kisses her in the lips as he insists that he has done many things, but not the same as with her.
