: While the show lacks overt romantic grandiosity (there are no kissing or formal confession scenes), the bond between the leads is solidified through subtle gestures, like holding hands and wearing matching red shoelace bracelets as "lucky charms".

The show delivers justice — but justice in Revenge of Others isn’t rainbows and group hugs. Bad people face consequences. Secrets explode. The truth finally crawls into the light. Chan-mi gets answers. Soo-heon makes a choice that will leave you staring at your screen for a full minute. If your definition of “happy” is everyone lives happily ever after , you’ll be disappointed. Several characters are permanently broken. Others are gone. The final shot is poignant, not playful.

For Ji Soo-heon, the ending is more about survival than a traditional "happily ever after." Given his terminal illness diagnosis earlier in the series, many fans expected him to be killed off. Surprisingly, he survives the finale.

The central mystery—who killed Park Won-seok?—is fully resolved. It is revealed that Won-seok’s death was not a simple suicide, but the result of a complicated chain of events involving the school's toxic environment. The series does an excellent job of peeling back the layers of the mystery, ensuring that the viewer isn't left with loose ends. Ok Chan-mi (the protagonist) finally gets the closure she needs regarding her brother's death, allowing her to move forward.
