“The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection” has come to an end. After multiple masks that would put plastic surgery to shame, a few resurrections, and many mind-blowing twists, this drama’s screenwriter, Kim Soon Ok, has given our characters the endings they deserved. From Matthew Lee (Uhm Ki Joon) being sent to jail to Yang Jin Mo (Yoon Jong Hoon) and Go Myoung Ji (Hwang Jung Eum) reuniting, here are three satisfying elements that happened in the final episodes of “The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection.”

Justice has been done
There was more than one person behind Bang Dami’s (Jung Lael) murder. While the people who made her life hell have been punished for their sins in one way or another, Matthew Lee, the man who pulled the trigger and ended Bang Dami’s life, remained impassive for most of the two seasons. However, that changed in the season two finale.
Matthew Lee had been using LUCA, the smart technology created by Lee Hwi So (Min Young Ki), to cause harm to others all the time. He used carefully designed technology to collect data against people and blackmail them for his own benefit. But in the end, his weapon turned against him. In episode 16, Min Do Hyuk (Lee Joon) hacks LUCA one last time to spread Matthew Lee’s crimes to the public, ultimately leading to his imprisonment.
However, one thing that made Matthew Lee’s ending a little less satisfying was getting shot to death by Kang Ki Tak (Yoon Tae Young). It would have been better to see a 10 or 15 year time lapse showing Matthew Lee rotting in prison.
Although Han Mo Ne (Lee Yu Bi), Jin Mo, Myoung Ji, Cha Ju Ran (Shin Eun Kyung) and Nam Chul Woo (Jo Jae Yun) have been tormented by Matthew Lee, it would have been unfair if they did not receive their fair share of punishment. Fortunately, all of these people, except Nam Chul, confessed to their crimes and went to jail. Meanwhile, Nam Chul died while he was saving Do Hyuk.
happy endings for everyone
Unfortunately, “The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection” is one of those series that makes you empathize with the villains. But watching the characters go through hell to get revenge on Bang Dami and go to jail for their crimes makes their happy endings easier to digest.
First of all, Jin Mo is alive! Every time a character is resurrected, viewers get a little more angry at how unrealistic the story is. However, Jin Mo’s resurrection and him meeting Myoung Ji was a very emotional scene that made everyone cry. After the jump of 10 years, both are still together with their three children. What makes their happy ending so touching is that Jin Mo was an orphan and never had a family of his own, but he did in the end.
Although Nam Chul, Ju Ran’s lover (with whom she wanted to spend the rest of her life), died, his end was not entirely terrible either. As seen in previous episodes, Ju Ran was pregnant with Nam Chul. And after the time jump, although she is still single, she seems happy with her son.
Finally, Han Mo Ne is much more humble and still loves his mother the same. His mother, however, now has Alzheimer’s and has forgotten everything except No Han Na (Shim Ji Yoo). During a hospital visit with his mother, Mo Ne overhears some women talking about his criminal past. This scene really shows the change in Mo Ne’s character. Instead of crying or ignoring strangers, she accepts that she is the despicable person behind Bang Dami’s death and even apologizes, something the old Mo Ne would never have done.
One thing everyone may have noticed is how, except for No Paeng Hee (Han Bo Reum), Han Na never called anyone “mother.” Even after living with Jin Mo and Myoung Ji for years, she still addresses them as uncle and aunt. He even calls his biological mother Mo Ne “aunt.” However, at the end of the drama, Han Na hugs Mo Ne and calls her “mother” for the first time. There could never be a happier ending than that for Mo Ne. Maybe in the future she will try to be a good mother, just like she was a good daughter.
The friendship of Go Erica and No Han Na
The relationship between Go Erica (Jung Seo Yeon) and Han Na has been strained since the first time they met. Erica has never experienced the love of a father, so when her mother tells her that she is going to have a new father, she is very happy for her. However, before she could approach her new father, Jin Mo, Han Na entered her lives. Jin Mo, who already knew Han Na through No Paeng Hee, approaches her without paying much attention to Erica, as he thinks this marriage won’t last anyway. This action makes young Erica feel abandoned and begins to hate Han Na. However, during the later episodes, both girls become close friends, and their friendship is still strong after 10 years.
As a teenager, Han Na is bullied by some girls who make fun of her for not having a mother, and Erica comes to her aid. As we all know, the whole drama started with Bang Dami being bullied, so adding a scene showing Han Na being protected is a shocking addition.
