not even a little bit, it's a completely different ending in the novel, HW doesn't even exist in the same timeline as Do Joon and DJ after taking over everything accepts that he is Do Joon now and that he has truly died as HW.
The screenwriter here changed everything in the ending so that she could subvert expectations for the sake of just subverting, and by doing so she created plot-hole after plot-hole.

Thanks

exactly! such a waste of a talented cast and crew, all the writer had to do was give us a satisfactory ending and she even had an example of it in the form of the Novel's ending witch was well-received and she couldn't even do that.

re-watching this is as bad as re-watching how I met your mother, pure misery

I don't think the writer knows either.

Yep! I don't understand why the writer can't have some measure of respect for the original material, sure change some things to make the drama more entertaining for TV but don't mess with the core of the story, which the writer here did and ruined a perfectly good drama.

on top of Do Joon's life being for nothing, the audience's time was wasted for nothing too

Don't, how many time do I have to repeat it to you? DO NOT WATCH IT IF YOU VALUE YOURSELF AND YOUR BRAIN.

Agree 100%, hope they don't give them any awards that would encourage this type of garbage writing.

can I join?

yeah, Grandpa is rolling in his grave at the mockery that the writer made of his company.

Korean deus ex machina working a double-shift.

Of course it can't be constructive, the drama has ended, constructive criticism is useless on a drama that has already been ruined.
And I'm not making fun of it, these are legit things wrong with this drama and people who haven't yet seen this drama need to know these facts before they get duped.

something along the lines of the novel ending, a satisfactory ending that delivers what the drama promised; Do Joon becoming chairman and buying Soonyang and merging it with Miracle, marrying min young and shown to have children now maybe. making Soonyang even bigger, his uncles and aunt becoming penniless and his cousin divorced and in jail for attempted murder or something. with zero mention of HW and showing that Do Joon has accepted who he is and has moved on from being the weak and useless HW.

don't bother with this drama if you haven't seen it yet, it has such a terrible ending that ruins whatever good the previous fantastic episode had done.

I usually would have been angry that someone took what I wrote like this, but mutual anger at the stupid writer is much more important so I'm fine with it. I'm happy that there are more smart people out there that can recognize trash hen they see it, instead of trying to find meaning in it.

dude! did you copy my review?? and added your own stuff in it too?

I never said it was pocket money, and also just riding an expensive car doesn't mean he owns it, on top of that in the world of the actual "Rich" people, this car isn't considered expensive at all and is indeed as you said pocket money

I haven't read the novel because it's not in English but someone explained it to me so I'm gonna give you their answer below;

"Grandpa gets a successful surgery and dies couple years later of old age. Dojoon gets the Conglomerate stocks. Grandpa tells him on the deathbed that it’s grandma behind car crash. He later finds out she had a whole gallery overseas that she used for money laundering. (I think she was painting them herself so most of art was fake I don’t remember correctly) He buys that gallery and when she travels overseas accuses her for the slush funds and she never returns. Marries that prosecutor girl (but there was no romance😂 she literally appears like 3-4 times lol). Basically he get the company and makes it bigger still having his miracle investment. He visits the place he was murdered and sort of accepts fully that this is his new life and it ends like that"

So true!!!
