It's funny how Jaeshin was all about going back to the Underworld in the very beginning and now it's all about "Lee Nok is mine." I agree with one of the comments saying that Jaeshin doesn't fully comprehend the human life at all so he can think of death as lightly. However, he is still protecting Lee Nok from his untimely death due to the ghost possessing the biatch queen.
Theory of how it ends:
I have this vision that in the end, Jaeshin will have to leave Lee Nok temporarily, him going back to the Underworld with a promise of meeting Lee Nok again on his death bed, respecting Lee Nok's wish to live out his life as one of the greatest king of his time until his younger brother inherits the throne. Lee Nok's final moments will be in that secret place he was only able to show Jaeshin, then waking up being lifted and welcomed by Jaeshin from the pond (hence the cover art). Jaeshin would probably say that he thought human lives are short but the time he spent waiting on Lee Nok felt like eternity so Lee Nok has to pay for making him wait (I can really see Jaeshin say this lol).
