Perhaps the external device's filesystem does not support Unix access
controls. Perhaps the external device is mounted with options to fix user,
group, and access rights as seen by Linux.

You could try to find the active mount options by issuing:

    mount | fgrep media

Hey. Partition is with its default settings.

$ mount | fgrep /run/media/$USER
/dev/sdc1 on /run/media/yk/maxell type fuseblk
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096,uhelper=udisks2)
$ lsblk -bo name,maj:min,fstype,mode,type,mountpoint,tran
NAME            MAJ:MIN FSTYPE      MODE       TYPE MOUNTPOINT
 TRAN

└─sdc1            8:33  ntfs        brw-rw---- part /run/media/yk/maxell
