Apparently, the ending of the MBC drama "W" didn't play as it was supposed to in the script.

On the final episode of the drama "W", writer Song Jae-jeong released the script of the final episode of the official blog.

The interesting thing about the drama was the scene in which Oh Yeon-joo (Han Hyo-joo) asked Kang Cheol (Lee Jong-suk) about Oh Seong-moo (Kim Eui-sung). Oh Seong-moo had disappeared on his own, saving Kang Cheol for his daughter's sake.

However, the actual drama showed Oh Yeon-joo understanding that her father was alive unlike the initial flow which seemed to show that she knew her father had gone. The following is the comparison between the actual drama and the script.

▲ The broadcast

YJ: Where's my dad?

KC: (Shows her a picture)

YJ: Looks at the picture and cries without saying anything

KC: Pulls the crying Yeon-joo into his arms

▲ The actual script

YJ: Where's my dad?

KC: Your dad too...

YJ: ...!

KC: He's at the psychiatric ward but he's in a better place because I pulled some strings. I saw him this morning.

YJ: Is that true?

KC: Really, he's there but he doesn't think he can meet people here.

YJ: (Expression)

KC: Oh I have a letter from him (takes letter out of pocket)

YJ: ...!

KC: I have a picture too. It's a recent one. (Shows her a picture of Seong-moo)

YJ: Stares into the picture

KC: ...

YJ: He looks good.

KC: He's well I tell you.

YJ: (Relieved, wipes tears as she opens the letter)

Thus, the script initially stated that Yeon-joo thought her father was alive and have a happy ending with Kang Cheol but in the drama, many parts of the scene were cut out and her father's sacrifice resulted in the happy ending.
