Our Movie K-drama ending explained: Did Da Eum die in the finale, and why did Je Ha quit filmmaking for a year?

Our Movie K-drama ending explained: Namkoong Min and Jeon Yeo Been's Our Movie, which premiered on June 14, 2025, wrapped up after 12 emotionally charged episodes on July 19, 2025. The K-drama quickly gained attention for its deeply human storytelling and raw emotional beats. Our movie explores the relationship between a withdrawn film director and an actress facing the end of her life. Now that the finale has aired, fans are dissecting the show's bittersweet ending and what it really meant for the characters left behind. What was Our Movie about? The story follows Lee Je Ha (Namkoong Min), an emotionally stunted film director who finds a new rhythm to life after crossing paths with Da Eum (Jeon Yeo Been), a terminally ill woman who auditions for one of his projects. Their professional bond slowly turns into a romance of a lifetime. As the two navigate love, illness, and the looming end of Da Eum's life, the show weaves themes of mortality, artistry, and memory into something tender and piercing. Our Movie Ending explained: A love remembered, not lost Our Movie Episode 12 opens with Da Eum and Je Ha slipping into a small theatre to catch the remake of Love in White. Only two other people are in the audience, and it's clear the film isn't exactly a hit. Still, instead of being disappointed, the two laugh it off, and it becomes one of those bittersweet memories only they'll truly understand. As the episode unfolds, Da Eum and Je Ha continue to lean into the little joys of their time together. She tells him she's happy, despite everything. Inspired by her outlook, they talk about changing the ending, not just of the film they're making, but maybe of their own story, too. The final scenes blur the lines between the film within the show and their real lives. Gyu Won, the character Da Wum portrays, is in Hyun Sang's arms. She delivers a hopeful last line, one that touches everyone, especially AD Hong and Seung Won, who tear up reading it. Director Je Ha tells Jung Woo not to cry in the scene, believing Hyun Sang's love would give him the strength to keep going. It's gentle and poignant, not about finality but about remembrance. Outside the film, characters come to their own resolutions. Seo Yeong confesses to Da Eum that she broke up with Jung Woo, admitting her fear of being alone made her hurt others. Da Eum reassures her that she's capable of finding peace even in solitude. At the crew dinner, playful teasing masks tender connections. AD Hong looks after Jun-byoung without even realising it, while Cheol-min and Ms. Jo grow closer. In a moving moment, Kim Hyun Chul shares with Da Eum that his cancer has returned. But she's taught him how to live meaningfully. They make a simple pact—to live each day as best they can. Dr. Lee finally visits the set on the final day of filming. Da Eum is happy to see him, but there's a sadness about the project coming to an end. As she and Je Ha reflect on the film's final scene, they're also talking about their own lives. Je Ha believes that as long as Hyun Sang loves Gyu Won, she'll always live on in memory. It's a subtle way of expressing what he feels for Da Eum. Did Da Eum die in Our Movie? While we do not see Da Eum's death in the movie, a time jump makes it clear for fans. After Da Eum passes away, Je Ha steps away from his work and daily life. He doesn't return to directing or writing. For a year, he lives with the weight of that loss, holding on to the person who changed him. One day, he finds a video Da Eum recorded before she died. She tells him to eat well, write good scripts, and make great movies. She says that if he ever misses her, he should think of her as much as he wants. She reminds him of their love and the way it existed fully in the time they had. When she says, 'Grieve as much as you want—until it reaches me,' Je Ha finally lets himself break. He cries as he watches her speak, and when she says 'I love you,' he says it back. 'Everyone dies. It's not just me…'This line breaks your heart so gently. It's a reminder that it's never truly goodbye, just simply, see you later. Because love doesn't end and neither do the souls we carry with us.#OurMovie #OurMovieEp12 Later, Je Ha returns to directing. He isn't who he was before, but he is present. He remembers Da Eum not through flashbacks or imagination, but in the small details of his day, in the way he sees people, and in the way he chooses to tell stories. Her memory stays with him, not as a burden, but as part of who he is now. Our Movie ends with loss, but not with emptiness. It doesn't offer dramatic closure. It shows what it looks like to keep living while carrying someone with you. How fans are reacting to Our Movie ending Fans dissected the emotional ending on the K-drama subreddit, r/Kdrama, with one fan writing, 'Do I even have words to write a review? No, absolutely not,' one user shared. 'Our movie is a testament that we should cherish every moment... everyone is going to die.' Namgoong Min's performance was another standout point for fans. 'Oh, this drama just made me love Nam Goong Min,' one viewer wrote, praising how natural and deeply human his portrayal of Je Ha felt. Another user said they were completely wrecked by the finale: 'I felt like I was living the lives of Da Eum and Je Ha simultaneously. Tears kept falling the entire episode... I love how beautifully this story has been written and am all tears at how intricately it has been portrayed. So far, the best watch of 2025.' Check out more reactions in the Reddit thread below: Will there be an Our Movie season 2? It's highly unlikely. Our Movie wrapped up its story with a clear conclusion. Da Eum's story has ended, and Je Ha's path forward feels heartbreaking but certain. While fans might crave more, especially after connecting so deeply with the characters, the show doesn't leave much room for a continuation. And maybe that's the point. Some stories are meant to end, and the pain of their ending is part of what makes them so memorable. For all the latest K-drama, K-pop, and Hallyuwood updates, keep following our coverage here.
