there was HUGE difference between JH who took the elevator at the end with JH at first day. she did struggle but set things right too. so her life had more meaning.
If the story writer wanted to say "make things better until your last breath and grab every chance", they should have ended in episode 18 where JH goes up the elevator and she didn't complete the three tears. I would have accepted the ending story better although it would be teary. I would have just thought "poor JH, it couldn't be helped". But they kept going and ruined it! She collected 3 tears, she should live! It's not even about the emotions invested in it. It's the whole "rule" thing. You don't make up rules and suddenly throw them into the garbage.
Another situation I would have accepted is if JH got her 3rd tear one minute too late (deal is a deal) but she prayed for one last chance to see HK. The heavens give pity on her and they do the YS/YK goodbye for JH and HK by giving her extra few days to say their final goodbye.
And what the heck is with the sister story. It's so "let's throw them a curve ball". I don't buy the story that JH's mom was so mean to leave the daughter at the orphanage. She seems like a really nice lady. She even took the other two girls in although they're not her own. They might as well have made Scheduler and HK long lost brothers. YS was an orphan too. HK's mom dumped him there. Or MH's dad was killed by JH's dad so he wanted revenge rather than the dumb, I'm poor so I want to steal from the rich and hell if they become poor. It's just their bad luck (they came across me)
And they should have named the chauffeur Mr. Kim!
