Death’s Game Ending: Does Death give Seo In-Guk’s Yi-Jae a final chance?

In Death’s Game Part 2, Park So-Dam’s Death continues to punish Seo In-Guk’s Yi-Jae for his sin of untimely ending his life and causing his loved ones immense pain. Death keeps on shooting him with bullets and Yi-Jae keeps on reincarnating as different individuals until all of his reincarnations die. The reincarnations include a psychopathic serial killer and a painter, Jung Gyu-Chul; a promising detective, Ahn Ji-Hyung; a homeless man, the man whom Yi-Jae saw dying in a car accident in the first episode; and finally, Yi-Jae’s mother.

All these reincarnations play significant roles in making Yi-Jae understand his sin. He also realizes why he is getting this painful punishment from Death. Part 1 of Death’s Game reveals that Park Tae-Woo (Ki Ji-Hoon) is a sinister man. He is a killer who was behind several deaths in Yi-Jae’s reincarnations. He even killed his lover, Lee Ji-Su (Go Yun-Jung).

In Part 2 of Death’s Game, Yi-Jae decides to take revenge on Tae-Woo for all the crimes he committed. He uses the memories of all his reincarnations to take down Tae-Woo for good. He is determined to punish him for his crimes. His reincarnation as detective Ahn Ji-Hyung plays a huge role in punishing Tae-Woo. He collects all the evidence to prove his crimes. He also gets the chance to kill him with his own hands.

However, Death intervenes, and he decides not to kill him. Tae-Woo ends up getting hit by a truck, which leads him to lose his legs and get fatally injured. Thus, he pays for his crimes. Right before his last reincarnation, Yi-Jae breaks down. He tells Death that he is ready for hell. He does not have the will to keep going with the punishment.

However, for his last reincarnation, he ends up as his mother in Death’s Game. Then he goes through the immense pain his mother had to suffer from after he ended his life. He understands the gravity of his sinful act, which left his mother in agony. For his mother’s sake, he dodges death and lives a long life as his mother. He makes sure that his mother dies naturally at an old age. After that, he meets Death after a long period. After meeting Death, he confesses to his crime. He expresses his regret for ending his own life and causing his mother so much pain.

He goes down on his knees and begs Death to give him a last chance to live his life as Yi-Jae. When Death asks why he wants one more chance, he says that he wants to hug his mother one more time. In the end, Death forgives him. She puts one last bullet inside her gun and hands it over to Yi-Jae. She says if the gun fires, he will get the chance and if not, his fate will lie in the hands of God.

Fortunately, the gun works and Yi-Jae goes back to the moment right before he jumps off the building. However, this time, he receives his mother’s call. The series ends there. Thus, Death’s Game ends on a highly emotional and satisfactory note, with Yi-Jae getting a final chance to live his life as his truest self.

Viewers can watch part 2 of Death’s Game on TVING and Prime Video.
