tvN’s ‘Divorce Insurance’ Wraps with a Touching Finale That Blends Laughter and Healing
The whimsical yet reflective story of ‘Divorce Insurance’, a Monday-Tuesday drama on tvN produced by CJ ENM, came to a heartfelt close on June 6. With a blend of romance, comedy, and emotional resonance, the series gave viewers a fresh perspective on relationships, personal growth, and healing amid life’s breakdowns.
Starring Lee Dong-wook as No Gi-jun and Lee Joo-bin as Kang Han-deul, the final episode showed the couple continuing their dreamy romance, embodying the concept of ‘twin flames’. Meanwhile, Lee Kwang-soo and Lee Da-hee as safe loan officer An Jeon-man and travel planner Jeon Na-rae ignited their romantic journey aboard a plane to Singapore, leaving hints of love continuing abroad.
At the heart of the series was the fictional launch of a real-life-inspired service — divorce insurance. This insurance was more than just a plot device; it symbolized taking responsibility for one’s own emotional well-being. The journey of the Task Force Team, formed to implement this unique policy, presented comedic yet sincere episodes — from daily project updates to finding purpose through self-understanding. These stories became a metaphor for adult life, where balance and self-worth are paramount.
The show cleverly tackled backlash surrounding divorce by pivoting the concept. No Gi-jun drew inspiration from Han-deul’s advice that the ‘center is always me,’ launching a ‘self-care program’ that encouraged participants to reflect inward. With this transformative message, the project was given a green light for official launch, marking a proud victory for the team.
The finale packed emotional punches. Han-deul revealed her tarot card question was, “Will I meet my twin flame?” and shared a hopeful smile with Gi-jun, implying the answer had come true. Meanwhile, Jeon Na-rae, uneasy at the airport, turned around to find An Jeon-man running toward her. Their reunion sealed with a kiss set the tone for long-distance love that understands boundaries but doesn’t compromise intimacy.
Other characters’ stories also found resolution. Na Dae-bok and Kim Nam-jin rebuilt their bond through shared domestic life, reconnecting step by step. Elsewhere, Jo Ah-young gathered enough courage to embrace a potential new romance, and the team members peacefully wrapped their emotional journeys after the TF team’s official disbandment.
‘Divorce Insurance’ ended on the uplifting note of new beginnings. Its creative premise — blending legal satire with life coaching — struck a chord with viewers. From twin flame romances to realistic depictions of emotional fatigue and healing, the series highlighted a hopeful outlook: divorce isn’t an end, but a step in understanding oneself and re-embracing life.
The drama received special praise for the compelling performances of Lee Dong-wook and Lee Joo-bin, whose chemistry elevated every scene. Their emotional arc — from uneasy allies to cosmic partners — encapsulated the show’s core message. Supporting roles played by Lee Kwang-soo, Lee Da-hee, Kim Won-hae, Choo So-jung, and Yoo Hyun-soo further enriched the show’s emotional tapestry.
Through relatable narratives and warm storytelling, ‘Divorce Insurance’ challenged stereotypes and offered a new lens on adult love, failure, and resilience.
