Probably the most unpopular opinion on here but I still like the ending (i read parts of the novel as well).
Regardless of what readers may want we know that they will end up together. Yeah having him on the ground groveling would be the ideal ending but I'm satisfied with the ending. With this ending he doesn't seem selfish and obsessive. He understands her needs and her wants above his. I think that both characters truly needed to move away from each other and heal to have a happy relationship. Both of them are fucked up and starting over seems like the best ending. He respected her wishes (which is more than he did in the novel; it took her LEAVING to understand this and originally didn't) and fully prepared for the divorce. In the novel his repenting phase felt like he still crossed some boundaries and didn't give her space like she needed (tbh it felt like she went back to him out of pity)
Yeah he def needs to repent but once again the choice is up to her whether she will want him or not. I like that she is the one who asked for a break bc it shows that he doesnt influence/pressure her into their relationship (unlike her marriage which was forced upon her) and shows that she understands his pov as well. Yall forgetting that they BOTH are victims but we only focus on her since shes the fl. She doesnt have to be some fl who leaves her husband and becomes a badass woman; she can be a woman wanting to love while becoming a strong independent woman.
Idk how the manhwa will play out but the ending isnt the worst thing ever.
