@luna_cy13 the way I see it they were never meant to have a typical 'happy' ending. An easy way out on the author's part would be Yeonjo somehow loses his memories (this would be lazy writing imho and I really hope the author doesn't go this way) or Heeryang almost loses Yeonjo and is genuinely regretful and this miiight make Yeonjo forgive and forget.
I doubt Heeryang actually has a choice to give up his murderous ways now, if he wants to maintain power and restoring Yeonjo to his nobility might be a far dream since his family are seen as traitors but hey the author can make anything happen ig. Either ways I have high hopes for the ending.
