A bittersweet yet perfect ending for a perfect drama

I understand the initial frustration with Reborn Rich’s ending, trust me, I avoided watching the final episode for days because I caught spoilers of what had happened, but now that I finally saw it, I am a crying mess and for good reason.

Yes, it’s quite unsettling and as I said frustrating to witness Do Joon’s entire effort for 15 episodes and 17 years go down the drain, but this is precisely why this entire thing happened. This is why Hyunwoo reborn as him. He participated in Dojoon’s death and chose to stay silent for success, for a chance to be someone. And after being betrayed, he got to be reborn as the person who was betrayed first AND HE HELPED cover his murder. Like he said, this was repentance. It’s brilliant. I can’t even wrap my head around it. It’s bittersweet, yes, but it’s BRILLIANT.

I will mourn Jin Dojoon, to be honest. He’s one of my favorite fictional characters I’ve watched in a drama and the injustice of what happened to him is what makes me cry now. But we can’t forget Dojoon and Hyunwoo are the same person. So, now, in this life, after getting his and Dojoon’s revenge and getting all of the Jin family to step down from Soonyang, Hyunwoo/Dojoon gets to live his life and be someone for his own merit without hiding behind an owner and his mistakes.

Again, I understand the frustration but if you just stop to think about it, it’s actually really brilliant.
