Extraordinary You Ending Explained: Does Kim Hye-Yoon & Rowoon K-Drama Have a Happy or Sad Ending?

Extraordinary You is a 2019 South Korean drama starring Kim Hye-Yoon and Rowoon in lead roles. The series tells the story of a high school girl who realizes she is a supporting character in a comic and decides to change her story.

In the previous episode, the writer changed the story set-up, which made Dan-Oh (Hye-Yoon) forget Ha-Ru (Rowoon). Her fiancé Baek Kyung (Lee Jae-Wook) helped Ha-Ru get back together with Dan-Oh when he learned the truth about the comic world he was in. Towards the end, Dan-Oh’s memories come back.

Extraordinary You finale begins with Ha-Ru and Dan-Oh becoming an official couple. However, Ha-Ru has hidden the truth that the writer has already started to erase the current story set-up. This means the extra character like Ha-Ru will be erased. Despite heartbreaks and separations, the lead characters get their happy ending in the final episode.
