"Shark" Has Ended But The Son Ye Jin-Kim Nam Gil Chemistry Has Not

The menacing moody melodrama "Shark" has ended and if you have not seen the last episode-spoiler alert-you may want to skip this story until you do.

Viewers suspected that the show could not end well. Revenge dramas rarely do. And since the show's alternate title "Don't Look Back" indicates that it's based at least partly on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, viewers may have guessed that Yi Soo and Hae Woo could not end up together.

In that story, Orpheus is responsible for sending Eurydice to the hellish underworld. He begs the gods to let him rescue her and bring her back to life. They say yes on one condition. He can lead her out but he must never look back. But Orpheus cannot resist looking back and he loses her.

In "Shark," it would seem that the minute Yi Soo stopped focusing on revenge and looked back at Hae Woo, remembering how much he loved her, he let down his guard and made himself vulnerable. The ending implied that Yi Soo died and that Hae Woo was so heartbroken she considered ending her own life. Sad, but that's how revenge stories tend to go.
