#the king eternal monarch
Okay so I just got inspired by a video by the youtuber Dramamaster and their most recent video and wouldn’t it be cool if there was an MBTI like personality typing system for Kdrama watchers? What drama watcher personality type do you have? I’m an OFBJ
Watcher type
O- Ongoing Watchers (Drama fans that watch dramas as new episodes are released weekly)
L- Late Watchers (Drama fans that don’t start the drama until the last episode has premiered and all episodes are available on a streaming service to binge in one go)
Q- Quitters (Drama fans that try to get through dramas but usually end up quitting the drama when it starts to lose steam and drags out towards the end/ Drama fans that take long breaks between episodes and go back to the drama after)
Reactions
F- The Over- Feeler (Drama fans that find them selves crying after every emotional scene)
A- The Angry Fan (drama fans that find them selves getting genuinely angry with the character/ the characters actions/ the treatment of the character by the writers of the show)
I- The Indifferent Fan (They don’t get too invested with the emotions of the drama and they don’t let it affect them as much as others)
Support (who are you rooting for?)
M- Main Lead Lovers ( Drama fans that actually enjoy when the main lead ends up with their main counterpart, typically enjoy the predictability of dramas and like seeing the two mains relationship blossom)
S- Second Main Lead Lovers (Drama fans that often root for the underdog and root for the main lead to end up with the second main lead, often has second male lead syndrome and roots for them even though they’re well aware that they may never get together)
B- Bromance Lovers (Drama fans that are honestly there to watch their to experience the friendship and often enjoys scenes between the main character’s and their best friends rather than their love interests)
After
C- Content creators (After the drama ends they keep the drama alive in their hearts and everyone elses’ by sharing the drama and creating posts and reviews about to share with the public)
J- Jokers (Drama fans that keep the drama alive by constantly quoting inside jokes from the drama that really only people that have watched the drama understand)
H- Memory Holder (Drama fans that constantly rewatch the drama over and over because they just love it)
Me, two years ago: “What are Kdramas?”
Me, now: *can’t shut up about Kdramas*
Me: “ I’m going to be busy now. I need to take a break from Kdrama’s”
Also me: *Watching 2 on-going Kdramas*
Me, to anyone I meet: “Do you watch Kdramas?♀️
I’ve spent so much time watching Kdramas that I practically live in South Korea now♀️♀️
I’ve become so immersed in Kdramas that I now find it’s hard for me to get into more western shows and movies. Kdramas have really changed my whole perspective.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why fall in love in real life when you can always fall a new Kdrama actor:
Me, when I recognise an actor from a another Kdrama:
Me, after not watching Kdramas for week:
Me, trying not to get too obsessed with a new Kdrama:
Lee Gon: The one who saved me was me.
Me pretending I didn’t know that since episode 1:
I really just want to have a talk with Kim Eun Sook about TKEM. I’m sure she had many many thoughts about how the story should go and I want to hear them all. I want to know her reasons for every scene she chose to include
This was a draft but I still stand by it…so many questions I have about the show in general and her intentions that I’ll never have the answer to.
Same. I wish we had the opportunity to chat with Korean screenwriters like we do with some Hollywood ones. I’ve had shows where I have literally dropped Tumblr asks and showrunners responded. I have soooo many TKEM questions, too. Some for clarification, others to understand the choices made, but also just to know more details on anything and everything about this show I love.
April 17 marks the 2-year anniversary of “The King Eternal Monarch.” Whether you’re a longtime fan who still has questions OR someone who very recently discovered the series on Netflix and need clarification, feel free to go ahead and ask me anything. Hopefully, I can help provide answers or at least direct you to some other TKEM meta written by fellow fans. Or you can just share your thoughts about this series that a lot of us haven’t quite moved on from.

why do I feel like we are going to lose Yeong next episode?
As much as I love Yeong and understand that he cares about the King I think he deserves to be scold for not protecting Tae-ul like Gon told him to
so, kes is really going to use the villain plot on a character who has managed to have her own place on her own, who has never bowed her head to absolutely anyone, who is intelligent and competent, just because she is ambitious? women have the right to be ambitious too, that doesnt make them villains. pm koo i’m so sorry sweetie…
also: lee gon deserves a good slap, lol. he could have convinced her (at least for a time) to join his team, but ofc he decided against it. he’s not that bright.
Why would you be against Lee Gon when you’d probably be the same in that situation? He just showed her where her place is. He never behaved towards her the way she did towards him. She was ambitious but also greedy and without any sense for how to do something the right way. You don’t go around rubbing your own greed into other’s faces, especially not to someone you like, oh actually! she didn’t even like him! all she wanted was to be Queen! greedAnd that’s why shelost her way, forgetting she’s going against The King. She basically got what she was looking for
A THEORY:
Lee Gon dies, Tae-ul spends time in between worlds waiting for him to grow up
just like Goblin did while waiting for Eun-tak
