5 Reasons Why We are Seriously Crushing on Kim Go-eun in ‘The King: Eternal Monarch’

With six episodes of ‘The King: Eternal Monarch‘ down, it’s just getting better and better with every episode. Lee Min-ho is always a treat to drool over, but can we take some time to appreciate Kim Go-eun for portraying Jeong Tae-eul as a badass detective? The more we get to know Jeong Tae-eul, the more we are loving her for being direct and gutsy.

Jeong Tae-eul knocks down a criminal with a glorious spin kick. We love women who can kick butt!

4. She doesn’t hesitate to call out people.

We love hearing her say things like, “You crazy bastard!” We can’t really blame her. It’s hard being patient with someone who claims to be an emperor from another world, even if he is as handsome as Lee Min-ho.

3. She always has her friends’ back.

Aside for being there with people, in general, the fact that she can kick butt helps greatly in her line of work. Check out Jeong Tae-eul helping Kang Sin-jae fend off some thugs in the photo above.

2. She never gives up.

Jeong Tae-eul never gives up and does everything she can to get the job done. As you can see, she isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty, either, even searching for a murder weapon amongst heaps of trash.

1. She’s not afraid of much.

Jeong Tae-eul is definitely someone you would want in your corner or squad! There’ll be more moments to look forward to in Episode 7, as well. Watch the teaser here:

Lee Gon is holding a large lion doll, which is definitely an upgrade from the tiny keychain version he gifted Jeong Tae-eul. Doppelgängers will meet and some might have murderous intentions. Does Koo Seo-ryeong also have a doppelgänger? What will happen when Luna and Jeong Tae-eul meet? So many questions, but one of the best things to look forward to is the meeting between Jo Yeong and Jo Eun Seop. We can’t wait to see their wildly similar yet different reactions to each other!

‘The King: Eternal Monarch’ is available on Netflix with weekly episodes every Friday and Saturday at 10:30PM.
