A lot of people are rooting for Jiwoo's lost so that he grows, however the thing is if he loses he'll end up dead. I suppose other people can say it is plot armour, but I think it just Jiwoo's hard work paying off. Jiwoo relentlessly sparred with his master and got beat up. He learnt a new technique and went back to his roots. Although hard work doesn't necessarily mean he'd win, but that doesn't mean he couldn't win either.
On another note: the only other ending that could've gone was Jiwoo losing and getting saved where Jiwoo would have been ashamed of himself and maybe more people taking this as a chance to beat him up?
