The drama series The King: The Eternal Monk can be watched on a variety of movie streaming platforms, one of which is Netflix.

He wants to live forever and hold the world in his hands. Lee Gon, who himself witnessed the murder of his father, managed to get half of Manpasikjok, while Lee Lim fled to a parallel world. In a parallel world, Li Lim met a figure similar to him. He killed and brought this man to the Korean Empire. So Li Lim, the traitor, was pronounced dead in the world of the Korean emperor.

As crown prince, Li Gong must inherit his father's throne and become king at a young age. His first task was to bury his father's body. Li Gong grows up to be an intelligent and charismatic king, and in addition to being a king, he is also known as a brilliant mathematician. However, Lee Gon has his own trauma due to the murder of his father. Lee Gon wants to close the door that connects his world to the Republic of Korea, even though he has to deal with the whispers of the devil.

In addition, there is another character, namely a detective from the criminal police of the Republic of Korea named Jung Tae Eul / Luna (Kim Go Eun), who always strives to protect love, people and other lives. One day, Li Gong found a door in a bamboo forest. The door led him to a parallel world, which he did not recognize at all, namely the Republic of Korea. He rode a horse in the middle of a city traffic jam. This made him get to know Jung Tae Eul.

Jung Tae Eul is a police officer with close associates, Jo Eun Sub and Kang Shin Jae. At first, she hates Lee Gon due to his strange attitude, but then they fall in love. Lee Gon transports Jung Tae Eul to the world of the Korean Empire. In the Korean Empire, Jung Tae Eul meets Jo Young, a palace guard with a face similar to Eun Soeb. Much happened later, various riddles appeared.

Lee Gon finally finds out that Lee Lim is still alive. Li Lim changed places of lives of people in parallel worlds, bad lives were exchanged for better, but people followed his order. Lee Gon and Jung Tae Eul then work together to close the door that connects their two worlds. At the end of the drama, Lee Gon and Jung Tae Eul managed to defeat Lee Lim and take Manpasikjok.

THE KING: ETERNAL MONARCH, WHO IS THE UNBREAKABLE SWORD?

 

The Unbreakable Sword is Jo Young's nickname in The King: Eternal Monarch. He is King Lee Gon's head of security, but also a loyal friend who has accompanied him throughout his life. When the protagonist was just a child, lost his father and soon had taken on the responsibilities of his kingdom, but while he was mourning his loss, another little boy approached him to support him and promised to take care of him from that moment on.

 

It was thus that Jo Young grew up alongside the character of Lee Min Ho having his confidence and knowing him better than anyone. Despite his serious personality and very much in keeping with his role within the security team, he is a kind-hearted person who is always cautious and very intelligent. but he is also as loyal as anyone.

Top 10 Best K-Dramas To Watch On Netflix

  Sugyani Mohapatra   August 25, 2021 

 

 

Korean drama, or K-Drama, refers to practically any fictitious South Korean television series, regardless of theme or genre. This includes comedies, romances, science fiction, and horror films, to mention a few.

With several series designated as Netflix Originals, Netflix has become the go-to source for finding the best Kdrama offerings for viewers worldwide. The business and structure of K-Dramas have also evolved as a result of this relationship, as well as the wider transition to streaming. With that in mind, whether you’re new to K-dramas or an experienced fan searching for more highly-rated, simply stream able options, here are some of the hottest K-dramas available on Netflix right now.

Fair warning for you all; practically all Korean dramas have unusual plots, but that’s part of what makes them so compelling. All you have to do now is learn to accept the weird and unexpected and enjoy the trip... 

 

7. Boys Over Flowers

 

Writer : Yoon Ji-ryun
Director : Jeon Ki-sang

It’s F4’s universe, and we’re simply passing through. At least, that’s how it goes in Boys Over Flowers, a popular Korean drama series that debuted over a decade ago. F4, a group of the most popular and wealthy lads at a private high school, develops an interest in a new lady, a scholarship student from a completely different environment. When you’re looking for a big splurge, this is the place to go. Boys Over Flowers is undoubtedly the one to watch if you want to see what more traditional K-Dramas look like, and it’s still highly recommended over a decade later. There will be a lot of melodrama, old fashion and hairstyles, and a lot of fun.

The Movie Culture Synopsis
The South Korean television and film industry has existed for more than half a century, but the last two decades have seen a significant increase in global recognition of the amazing body of work produced. Korean dramas take place in a surreal and lovely universe.

As K-pop, Korean films like Parasite and Minari, and Korean television series take the world by storm, the South Korean entertainment sector is progressively rising to global supremacy.
