Imbalanced resolution
One of the drama’s strengths is its ability to give depth to its characters. However, the finale leaves several arcs incomplete. Cheon Sanghak’s struggles were never fully addressed, and the reasoning behind Sang Cheon’s fault in it felt unclear. Kim Sanghak’s story was almost entirely sidelined despite his significance earlier on, as if he was abruptly erased from the narrative. This creates a sense of imbalance in the storytelling.
The focus on Cheon’s illness overshadowed other character journeys. While Cheon’s ending felt emotionally complete, others, especially Ryu, Cheon Sanghak, and Kim Sanghak , were left without resolution. This makes the finale feel rushed and incomplete, as though important arcs were sacrificed for emotional weight rather than balanced closure.
Ultimately, the drama succeeds in emotional impact but falls short in delivering satisfying conclusions for all its main characters.
