OK! Let’s Get Divorced Ending Explained: Do Mi-young and Won-ho Get Back Together?

OK! Let’s Get Divorced wrapped its 12-episode KBS run on September 24, 2026, and the ending has fans of Lee Min-jung and Kim Ji-seok asking one big question: did Baek Mi-young and Ji Won-ho actually find their way back to each other? The dramedy followed a married couple who co-run a wedding dress brand called J&WHITE while their own marriage falls apart, mixing courtroom-style divorce negotiations with old wounds that finally surface. If you watched the finale and are still a little confused about the miscarriage twist, the letter, or that quietly devastating last scene, here’s a full breakdown of how it all wraps up.

What Is OK! Let’s Get Divorced About?

In their seventh year of marriage, Baek Mi-young (Lee Min-jung) slaps divorce papers on her husband Ji Won-ho (Kim Ji-seok). The two fell in love fast, got married, and built the wedding dress brand J&WHITE together, but years of buried resentment finally catch up with them. What starts as a straightforward split spirals into a messy, public fight once lawyers, former flames like Calvin (Lee Hyun-jin) and Ahn Hee-joo (Lee Jini), and old business rivalries get dragged into it. Underneath all the petty sniping, though, the show is really about two people slowly re-learning who the other person actually is.

The Miscarriage Twist That Changes Everything

The show’s biggest gut-punch arrives when the truth behind Mi-young’s miscarriage three years earlier finally comes out. Kang Kyung-tae (Jung Eui-jae), J&WHITE’s vice president, confesses he secretly swapped Mi-young’s herbal medicine because he’d been in love with Won-ho since high school and panicked when Won-ho and Mi-young started planning a future together. Won-ho is devastated to learn that his own company’s trusted junior employee is responsible for the loss, and the guilt he feels for not protecting Mi-young drives nearly everything he does for the rest of the series, including asking Calvin to keep the truth hidden a little longer so he can figure out how to tell her himself.

Ji Won-ho’s Disappearance and the Letter

Once Won-ho learns the truth, he transfers his half of the company to Calvin and quietly disappears after seeing Hee-joo off on her move to Milan. His absence hits Mi-young harder than she expects. She admits that for 365 days he’d always been there like air she didn’t notice until it was suddenly gone, and that she can barely breathe without him around. When Calvin realizes she’s still in love with her almost-ex-husband, he steps aside and sends her to find Won-ho at a countryside house where he’s been staying alone. Mi-young tells him flatly not to leave again, but the next morning he’s gone once more, this time leaving only a letter behind.

Does OK! Let’s Get Divorced End With an Actual Divorce?

Here’s the twist: yes, they really do go through with it. Mi-young finds Won-ho on a remote hillside after reading his letter, which tells her he wants “the rest of your life to be a happy ending.” Instead of a dramatic reconciliation, Won-ho tells her plainly that they should get divorced, and after resisting, Mi-young eventually accepts his decision. At the family court mediation, Won-ho offers to sign his half of J&WHITE over to her, but she refuses to take sole ownership of something they built together. He insists anyway, telling her, “If I have my skills, I can make dresses anywhere,” and reminding her that she’s the one who always saves the company when things fall apart. The finale’s divorce scene is genuinely bittersweet: both of them cry, but they also smile, finally understanding each other after years of talking past one another. Won-ho tells her to stay healthy and live well, she shakes his hand, and that’s how their marriage legally ends.

The Bittersweet Twist: What Happens a Year Later?

This is where the show earns its happy-ish ending. A year after the divorce, Mi-young is running J&WHITE as CEO, still as demanding a perfectionist as ever, and apparently struggling to keep designers on staff (a nice callback to how irreplaceable Won-ho actually was). She visits a small mound of azaleas that Won-ho planted to mark the anniversary of their child’s loss, and finds the flowers blooming unusually bright despite the cold weather, which she takes as a good sign. Right after that, she spots a new designer applicant walking into the company. It’s Won-ho. The drama ends on Mi-young’s face breaking into a genuine smile as she looks at him, strongly hinting that this divorced couple is about to find their way back into each other’s lives, just on new terms this time.

FAQ: OK! Let’s Get Divorced

Is there going to be a Season 2 of OK! Let’s Get Divorced?

As of now, KBS and the production team haven’t announced a second season. The finale wraps up Mi-young and Won-ho’s story with a hopeful, open-ended final scene rather than a cliffhanger, so the show works fine as a complete 12-episode run even without a follow-up.

Is OK! Let’s Get Divorced based on a true story or novel?

No, it’s an original script written by Hwang Ji-eon, not an adaptation of a specific novel or true story. The writer has said the series was built around the idea of a couple who are experts at crafting the “perfect” wedding for others but can’t seem to manage their own marriage, which became the emotional engine of the whole series.

Does Mi-young ever find out the full truth about Kang Kyung-tae?

Yes. Won-ho eventually confronts Kang Kyung-tae and learns the truth firsthand before the finale, and the fallout from that confession is part of what pushes Won-ho to disappear in the first place. The show treats it less as a mystery to solve and more as the emotional wound that both Mi-young and Won-ho have to work through together before they can really move on.

At its core, OK! Let’s Get Divorced is less about the mechanics of a messy breakup and more about two people who had to lose each other to really see what they’d built together. The miscarriage reveal gives real weight to Won-ho’s guilt, the letter and disappearance give Mi-young space to realize what she actually wants, and that quiet final scene leaves just enough hope that their story isn’t really over. It’s a satisfying way to close out a drama that spent most of its runtime proving that divorce paperwork is a lot easier to sign than real feelings are to let go of.
