The series culminates in Ji Woo facing off with Mu-jin, her father's former best friend and the drug lord responsible for her father's death. We don't see that badass of a fight sequence again until the end, but for all the police training and mob trials Ji Woo had to go through to infiltrate the underworld ranks and avenge her father's death, there was this suggestion that she already had all the skills she needed. There, we see as Ji Woo is effectively kicked out of her school, she makes it known that she's one hell of a fighter, knocking out the school's knife-wielding bully. For that, we head back to the opening credits. Devastating, right?īut the most brilliant plot parallel in the series actually goes back further than that Episode One murder. She witnesses the murder via a door peephole, which her father is holding closed so she can't get hurt. On her darkest day-her birthday, no less!-her father is shot and killed right in front of her. Ji Woo, the daughter of a "known" gangster (slash undercover cop), is an outsider to everyone around her. But you know what they say about assumptions: it makes an ass out of you and me and also a beautiful policeman partner dies. And even though you know that sort of quest so rarely ends well, as the series is wrapping up, it seems like Ji Woo might, just maybe get a happy ending. Our main character, Yoon Ji Woo, was on a mission of revenge. So if you haven't finished all eight episodes of My Name, the addictive new K-Drama that's currently taking off on Netflix, but have found yourself searching for answers, turn away from this webpage now.***įor those who, like me, have arrived at the end, you'll agree that the final notes were as heartbreaking as the series' premise itself. ***Hereby ends the non-spoiler portion of this post, FYI. She came in fighting and she went out fighting, damn it.
