The possible endings to Hi Bye, Mama (Spoiler for Ep. 11)

I personally think the story is going to end in two ways.

The most likely situation that Yu-ri would probably disappear and die again. It is stated that the shaman wasn't even sure if she found her place she would be able to keep living. The exorcist was trying to find Seo-woo for the 12th episode teaser. Yu-ri is most likely going to turn herself in to the exorcist so her child would be safe from seeing ghost. This will leave a impact to people close to Yu-ri to remember to cherish those around her. If this is the situation it will cause a terrible heart break but also a sweet end. In the title of the story it's "Hi Bye, Mama" The hi is Seo-woo response to seeing her biological mom and the bye is possibly foreshadowing that Yu-ri will have to leave again.

The second situation is Yu-ri does stay but if you think about it, that'll cause tons of issues. Her body got cremated and how is she able to marry someone again if she doesn't have an ID or anything since she lost all her stuff when she died. And even if she does get it back somehow she's using a "dead" person's items. And she would hurt the feelings of Min Jung (Seo-woo stepmom) and that's is going to cause more issues. But if she does stay she'll have a second chance at life. But what happens if she dies again? Thats the real question if this situation comes.

I think Yuri's going to die. She's chosen to not rock the boat since she's seeing her husband's moved on.  At first I thought they'd put her with the son of the ghost family but apparently he's disappeared even though they introduced him as if he'd be a pivotal character. I thought she would find a new "place" to claim as her own and live, but now I'm leaning toward not.

The situation with Yu Ri is complicated. I think the drama writer has made one big ass mistake if the case is really that Yu Ri can stay alive if Gang Hwa gets back together with Yu Ri. That makes no sense to me. Why would that be a condition to stay alive? That's just seem like stupid writing.
I could understand if Yu Ri could stay alive if she traded her life with that of her daughter so the daughter will die and Yu Ri will stay alive because that would be a "reasonable" trade. That could also be explained by the notion that Yu Ri traded her life with that of her daughter so the daughter could stay alive and is now given the chance to take that trade "back". 

When I think about it then that could actually be what they mean when they say that Yu Ri can stay alive if she gets back together with Gang Hwa. They will go back in time to when Yu Ri was about to die and instead of saving the daughter then Yu Ri will stay alive with Gang Hwa. If that's the choice they'd have to make then that would be more "reasonable".

The problem with this story if that's not the case is that pretty much any person would not think twice if they had the chance to stay alive just by having their husband divorce their second wife and then marrying him again. In my opinion that's not a heavy enough trade to make this story "realistic" and I think writing that a person could be given such a chance is stupid in itself. I mean how is a life worth a divorce? A life is worth another life.

The only way Yu Ri should be able to stay alive with her daughter would be if the writer could actually make a good explanation as to why Yu Ri gets that chance and not other good people that have died young - I don't think that's possible.

I am not sure whether Yuri lives or dies but her purpose in coming back was to be Seo-woo's mom.  It makes no sense that even though she died giving birth to Seo-woo,  her child has no understanding that she has a biological mom and Min Jung is her stepmom.  I don't know maybe they were going to explain that to her later but this whole time that has bothered me.  They moved on but in really unhealthy ways.  Her mom, dad, and sister could not even acknowledge their own grandchild/niece because she had no idea who her biological mom was.  I think Yuri came back to help them do the right things by Seo-woo so that her family could be a part of her daughter's life and so her dad could celebrate good memories of Yuri with his child.  I cannot imagine Min Jung would keep them from telling Seo-woo about her biological mom.  It takes nothing away from the role Min Jung has and will have in Seo-woo's life.  I would hope she realizes that Yuri supports her being a mom to Seo-woo.  I am not sure how this ends happily for Yuri but maybe just being acknowledged as Seo-woo's mom will give her some peace and keep her alive in their memories and allow her to "take her rightful place".

I totally agree with you! After watching the latest episode I had hope for Gang hwa and Yu ri to get back again. Ughhh. This would actually be easy if Min jeong's not too nice though. ?

I honestly think this drama is more interesting because Min Jung is a nice and sympathetic character.  If she were the devil incarnate, then the drama's premises would have been done a couple of dozen times.   I'm leaning towards a reset at this point;  where everyone goes back to the day that Cha Yu Ri  dies and my belief comes from  episode 14 's discussion of  hospital VIP favoritism.   What if Jo Gang Hwa tells the hospital to go screw themselves and preforms her surgery instead?  I personally believe the outcome would be different.  

I don't think that's the case honestly. And to be clear, it'd be incredibly disappointing. Min Jeong is Seo Woo's mom regardless of any outcome. Yuri herself sees that. I also appreciate the plot a lot for showing this dynamic. Min Jeong raised and loved Seo Woo since she was a baby. One of my favorite moments was when Seo Woo was sleeping near Min Jeong and they slept in the same way, that was such a subtle beautiful scene. Motherhood is such a crazy journey and not always our mom will be the one who gave birth to us. As for Yuri, Seo Woo loves her too and I truly hope they will have time to nurture their bond as there's a true connection there too.
