K-dramas are known for sweeping romances, epic twists, and dramatic finales. But sometimes, the ending just doesn’t hit the mark. Whether it’s heartbreak, confusion, or an unsatisfying open end, these K-dramas left viewers feeling everything but closure. Here are some dramas with finales that disappointed or divided fans the most.
1. 'Twenty Five Twenty One'
All viewers were under the impression that Baek Yi Jin and Na Hee Do would end up together. But as the ending neared, fans were left in shock when they didn’t. If there was any series that left viewers emotionally divided, this was the one.
2. 'Descendants of the Sun'
This series was a major hit, but its ending caused confusion. At first, viewers thought Captain Yoo had died, only for him to reappear later. Even though the leads reunited, questions about their future together were never answered.
3. 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Ryeo'
You’d think the time skip would provide closure, but instead, Hae Soo died, and the drama ended with a feeling of unfulfilled love. Fans are still hoping for a sequel or alternate ending.
4. 'Uncontrollably Fond'
Forget happy endings. Joon Young passed away in Noh Eul’s arms, devastating viewers. While realistic, many still label this finale as one of the most painful K-drama endings ever.
5. 'Memories of Alhambra'
Open-ended endings can be frustrating, and this one left things way too ambiguous. Yoo Jin Woo vanished into the game world and fans were left wondering if he survived. It felt like the setup for a second season that never came.
6. 'The Business Proposal'
The main couple got their happy ending, but the second lead storyline felt rushed. Seol In Ah’s character gave up her wealth and family, yet we never saw what became of her career or new life.
7. 'Innocent Man'
Plot twist after plot twist made for a chaotic final stretch. Eun Gi’s memory loss and the unresolved feelings between her and Ma Ru left fans feeling emotionally drained. There was no clear romantic closure.
8. 'Cheese in the Trap'
Looking back, the red flags were there. Yoo Jung’s emotional manipulation and eventual breakup with Hong Seol frustrated viewers. The vague ending suggested they might get back together, which didn’t sit well with many fans.
