Son Suk Ku and Kim Hye Ja make a heartfelt promise to reunite in their next lives in the finale of JTBCโs “Heavenly Ever After.” The drama, which will air its last episode on May 25, 2025, will deliver an emotional conclusion as the couple chose reincarnation with a vow to find each other again.
The series follows Lee Hae Sook (Kim Hye Ja), an 80-year-old woman who dies and reunites with her late husband Go Nak Joon (Son Suk Ku) in heaven. Unlike others who return to their younger selves, she keeps her elderly appearance, while Nak Joon appears as a 30-year-old. Their love story explores themes of devotion, forgiveness, and second chances.
In the final episodes, the mystery of Som Yi (Han Ji Min) was resolved. She vanished after Hae Sook forgave herself, bringing closure to her emotional journey. Meanwhile, their long-lost son, Go Eun Ho (Ryu Deok Hwan), decided to be reincarnated, adding another layer to the familyโs story.
