Because he wasn't 6
Ok can u explain it cause he went from little boy to grown man in 5yrs n it still don’t add up
I am a bit confused too.
This is what I understand:
When Sep Sam first for there he was like 12-13 and now with 5 years he is 17-18
The king was 3-4 when he first met him, then with 5 years he was about 9-10
Now, in the last ch, it said it was the kings 10th head in the palace and he has been there since like 2 so he should be about 12-13. He is a young teen I think and seo Sam is almost an adult
Cause 10 years has passed since myeong arrived to the palace
It said it’s his 10th spring in the palace
For me, I have calculated their age this way idk if it's right tho but this is the only way I can make sense of the plot and the ages
So since in the end of season one the author gave us the characters ages: king is 25 y.o, the scholar is 32 and the oldest son (the original heir to the throne) is 36
*When the king first met the scholar at the palace the scholar said he looked like 3 or 4 y.o maximum so then let's that say that;
the king is 4 y.o, the scholar is 11 y.o and the o.g heir is 15 y.o
*Later it said that four autumns have passed so this is when the king stabbed his brother in the eye that would mean 4 years or nearly five years has passed) meaning;
the king is 8-9 y.o, the scholar is 15-16 y.o and the o.g heir is 19-20 y.o
*lastly in the chapter 37 it says that 5 years have passed (10 years in total since the king came to the palace);
the king is 14 y.o, the scholar is 21 y.o and the o.g heir is 25 y.o
And I think the kings second oldest brother is about 5 years older than him that would mean that he's about 19 in the end of the chapter 37 cuz that's the only age that would make sense for him to be having a lover
Wow, I really appreciate the detailed response. I think you got it right! Thanks so much!
No problem (⌒▽⌒)
The age isn’t making sense to me like I’m not understanding how he turned 6 to 17 in 5 years ?
