Happy End is about Bora (Jeon Do-yeon), a successful career woman who becomes involved with her destructive ex-lover, Kim. Bora’s home life is a snore: she’s mother to an infant child and her husband, Seo (Choi Min-sik) has lost his job, leaving Bora as the family’s sole breadwinner. It’s unclear if Bora is with Kim just for the sex or for the passion, both of which Seo seems incapable of giving. But it seems the jobless Seo hasn’t been just wandering around parks and reading romance novels as first thought; he knows something is going on, and he’s collecting evidence.
