Law and the City Ending Explained: Do Lee Jong Suk and Moon Ga Young break up or leave their jobs? Explore season 2 possibility
Law and the City has come to an end. The tvN legal drama, which took on a rather slice-of-life approach, has completed its run after 12 episodes over the past 3 months. While not a wildly viral K-drama, viewers of the show would appreciate the involvement of real-life lawyers in the work and how nuanced it was right from the start. Now, we're taking a look at what happened with Lee Jong Suk, Moon Ga Young, Kang You Seok, Ryu Hye Young, and Im Seong Jae's characters in the last episode. Seocho-dong squad breaks down in Law and the City Much like the name of the show, law never goes out of the blood of these five skilled lawyers, who have each taken their own paths by the end of the show. After repeated humiliation from his boss, Kang You Seok's Cho Chang Won finally quits his associate life at Junggong Law Firm. But it's not to join his father's business as the only child of his family, but to take to prosecution instead, hoping to become a prosecutor that he does not hate. Ryu Hye Young's Bae Mun Jeong starts looking for an in-house counsel job instead of litigation, but instead chases her dream. After searching for her replacement during her maternity leave period, she aims to come back to her role as an associate at Kyungmin Law Firm, to deal with her cold boss. She's the only one who remains at the same firm after the changes within her friend group, with full support from her nurse husband, who cheers for her not giving up attitude. Im Seong Jae's Ha Sang Gi decides to support a young and struggling orphan kid by sponsoring his education and resigns from his job. Things take a surprising turn with his boss, who seems to have a crush on him, and the two soon become a PhD student-law firm owner couple, bringing a warm end to their love story. Another romance finds itself floating as Lee Jong Suk's Ahn Ju Hyeong and Moon Ga Young's Kang Hui Ji continue to be supportive of each other's plans. With him leaving after 10 years of being an associate to chase cases with more emotion on his own and her leaving to become a public defender, the couple finds their peace in quiet lunch meets and new purposes in life. While in different places now, the five friends end their stories with a warm hangout session in their neighborhood, Seocho-dong, with lessons far surpassing what meets the eye. With all ends tied, there does not seem to be any need for a Law and the City season 2, but we'll be happy if they come back!

TWICE's Sana Finally Breaks Silence On Dating Rumours With G-Dragon: ‘I Am Just Happy…'
G-Dragon and TWICE's Sana dating rumours began at Coldplay's concert. Earlier this year, G-Dragon and TWICE's Sana became the centre of dating rumours. The speculation started when the Heartbreaker singer attended a Coldplay concert in South Korea, where TWICE appeared as guest artists, and tagged only Sana in a social media post. This caught fans' attention, especially as it happened just weeks before G-Dragon was set to appear on Sana's Fridge Interview. When the episode aired, his agency clarified that the tag was purely friendly. While Sana remained silent throughout, she finally addressed the dating rumours during the show's season finale, giving fans the clarity they had been waiting for. Sana Recalls Sudden Meet Up And Dating Speculations: Talking about the episode, Sana shared that the day felt special and turned into a nice memory for her. She explained that it all happened very suddenly, almost like an unplanned get-together where everyone just decided to meet at the same time. According to her, it was only because of the Fridge Interview that they ended up spending time together, and without the show, they would have never met. Speaking about the dating rumours, Sana added, 'I don't know if I should say this but my account showed up in the story. After that went up, the members knew he had been on my show. But it was only a few days after we filmed. I was like, 'Ahh, I can't even say anything here.' That he was on the Fridge Interview. I really want to say, but still, I had to wait and it finally aired like a month later. It was like that, but I'm just happy we got to show everyone a new kind of lineup." Galaxy Corporation Explains Why Tagging Happened: After G-Dragon's appearance on Sana's Fridge Interview, his agency, Galaxy Corporation, issued a statement addressing the dating rumours with Sana. As per Soompi, they explained, 'G-Dragon filmed the YouTube web variety show Dex and Sana's Fridge Interview on April 14, which was the day after the final broadcast of MBC's Good Day. Later, on April 22, G-Dragon attended the Coldplay concert in Korea and posted a photo from the event. During this time, TWICE performed as special guests, and since it was not long after the filming, he simply tagged Sana's personal social media account as a friendly gesture following their shoot together." 'Fridge Interview was filmed due to G-Dragon's friendship with Dex, and Sana's appearance was confirmed the day before filming. The reason we did not address the dating rumours earlier was because we were concerned it might spoil G-Dragon's appearance on Fridge Interview," the agency added. TWICE is currently on their This Is For world tour, and on August 2, the group became the first K-pop girl group to headline the Lollapalooza Chicago music festival.
