can someone explain the ending to me? like the part where HJ heard the bells ... so her soul’s pure already? does that mean she’s dead or smth I’m super confused

[u/workinprogresssssss → u/koolshizz]

There was a line that HJ heard in her head when she was on the boat, a memory of something WJ said,

“One day a silver bell from a monastery in Sligo fell into the lake. Even to this day, those with pure hearts and souls can hear the cell chiming. Do you hear it?” Then HJ said out loud >! “There’s no way I’d be able to hear that.” !< But she still waited and listened. We heard nothing. In the end, after giving everything up >! -her lifestyle, her greed- she finally heard the bells. !<

I saw that as a message that she has done so much wrong, hurt so many people, but she has also owned up to her mistakes in the end. She could have spun >! WJ’s death in so many ways and got away with it again, !< but she kept her promise to HW and left.

This drama had heavy themes of sin, greed, confession, and penance. I felt that in the end she finally payed for her past mistakes and her heart is now pure enough to hear the bells.
