Love Letter [2003 Korean Drama] Has An Awful Ending

I completed 2003 Korean drama, Love Letter, a couple of days ago. It was a difficult watch because of Soo Ae. LOL Prior to that, though, I already read on the web that Cho Eun-ha (Soo Ae) would lapse into coma and that finally, Jung Woo-jin (Ji Jin Hee) would be free from his gripping love for Eun-ha.

In the final episode, Eun-ha underwent heart transplant after finally getting a matching donor and her surgery was headed by Jung Woo-jin, assisted by the priest, Andrea Lee Woo-jin.

Yes, Eun-ha sort of forced Andrea to become a priest because she believed that she would die. She did not but while she was in coma, Andrea took the final step to be one, since he promised her. Meanwhile, he continued to care for the sleeping Eun-ha while Jung Woo-jin went overseas to be a volunteer doctor. And he seemed pretty happy (free from the grip mentioned earlier) despite the fact that Eun-ha was comatose. Does that mean that he doesn't love Eun-ha anymore or that he finally realize that there will be no future for him and Eun-ha?

Andrea said that should Eun-ha wake up, they should "love again" but he's a priest now, so how could he love a woman again? Strange, really strange.

And now that Eun-ha is awake, and Jung Woo-jin comes back into her life because he loves her so much it's painful to watch how his love is not reciprocated but it's always been Andrea, Andrea, Andrea in Eun-ha's mind, and if Andrea gives up his priesthood because he wants them to "love again", this triangle love will never end.

Poor Jung Woo-jin. I could easily fall for a man like that. Ji Jin Hee is married to a Korean actress, by the way.


Ending theme
A Farewell In Heaven [천국의 이별 chun goo.k eh ee byul] - Tri-be

I searched YouTube and found this music video of the ending theme of Love Letter. It's called A Farewell In Heaven. It's not my favourite song in the whole OST album. My favourite is Andrea's theme [sarang eul mid na yo], Jung Woo-jin's theme [huh rak] and "noon boo shin nae ga dwel ddae gga ji" all by Tri-be. Too bad I could not find any of these on YouTube. SIGH!
