Fans are eager to have The Trunk ending explained, concerning whether Jeong-won and In-Ji end up together. This Netflix K-drama tells the intriguing story of a temporary contractual marriage between Jeong-won and In-Ji, orchestrated by In-Ji’s company. Their relationship evolves amidst challenges, including a mysterious trunk and a murder case. Though the case gets resolved, many are curious to know what happens to the duo’s bond.
So, here are the details.
Do Jeong-won and In-ji get together at the end of The Trunk?
It remains unclear if Jeong-won and In-Ji end up together in the finale. However, The Trunk’s ending does indicate a potential reunion.
At the series start, Noh In-ji, who despite being in various contractual marriages every year, longs for an emotional bond. However, she eventually finds a connection in her other temporary marriage to a music producer Jeong-won. Though initially, they refuse to form an emotional bond, they eventually develop feelings for one another. However, their fake marriage turns in a meaningful bond, where they both stand through each other’s thick or thin.
However, in the finale, they decide to nullify their marriage contract after the murder case is solved. After destroying his old family home, Jeong-won meets In-Ji for the last time. Together, they reminisce about the graduation ceremony, when they initially met. He acknowledged that In-Ji was the only one who clearly understood him and aided him in the healing process.
Though with a heavy heart, they have to depart, Jeong-won asks her if she would like to stay with him in the future if they bump into each other twice. Highlighting the possibility of reconnecting, he says, “Who knows, we might be destined together. If we see each other twice, two times, that’s providence.”
The final moments see them going from each other’s lives and starting a new chapter before crossing paths again. Once, they confront on a random Seoul street but In-Ji believes that they need one more encounter to prove that they are meant to be together. Nevertheless, this scene does give a subtle hint that there are chances that the two might have ended up together in the future.
