The ENA original drama 'The Good Bad Woman' has successfully wrapped up its run, thanks to the powerful performance of lead actress Jeon Yeo-been.

The final episode, aired on the 4th, saw protagonist Kim Young-ran (played by Jeon Yeo-been) flawlessly execute her revenge against the villain Ga Seon-yeong (played by Jang Yoon-ju), culminating in a happy ending as she began a new life with her loved ones.

The finale achieved a personal best viewership rating, with 7.1% nationwide and 7.1% in the Seoul metropolitan area. This secured its position as the No. 1 ENA Monday-Tuesday drama for 2025 and the second highest-rated ENA drama of all time, according to Nielsen Korea.

In the episode, Kim Young-ran, following Chairman Ga Seong-ho's (played by Moon Sung-keun) plan, meticulously trapped Ga Seon-yeong. CCTV footage capturing her crimes and the video of Ga Ye-rim's murder were revealed at the shareholder meeting, leading to Ga Seon-yeong facing the full force of the law.

After completing her vengeance, Kim Young-ran was overcome with emotion while listening to Chairman Ga Seong-ho's final message. His heartfelt support, given without expecting anything in return, provided her with immense comfort.

Ultimately, Kim Young-ran returned to Muchang Village with Jeon Dong-min and her friend Baek Hye-ji (played by Joo Hyun-young), who had unconditionally supported her. Embracing their future together, she and Jeon Dong-min shared a sweet kiss.

Meanwhile, the supporting characters also found their own happiness. Lee Don (played by Seo Hyun-woo) started his own business, Baek Hye-ji married Seo Tae-min (played by Kang Ki-doong), and Im Seon (played by Seo Jae-hee) secured her position as the kindergarten principal in Muchang with Kim Young-ran's help. Those who committed evil deeds were all imprisoned, realizing true poetic justice.

Netizens praised the show's conclusion, with comments like 'Jeon Yeo-been's acting was incredible,' 'A perfect portrayal of justice being served,' and 'Looking forward to Season 2!' reflecting the audience's satisfaction with the finale.
