As she exits her father’s place, she and Ram Woo consider the other bucket list items and she sees a young woman happily talking about her upcoming vacation but as she rides the bus, the passport falls off. The two decide to go together to the airport to give it back to her.

“Way back love” ending review
That was so cute and yet so sad at the same time.
This is a nice short drama that I think most will enjoy watching. Its not too long and doesn’t dwell much which is good. Both Gong Myung and Min Ha do great and look good together. I just feel so bad that Ram Woo’s life was cut so short but its such a sweet noble thing he did trying to save her. That was the closure she needed.
Overall, a nice drama.
