My Man Is Cupid episode 16 (finale) started with Jang Dong-Yoon’s Sang-Hyuk and Nana’s Baek-Ryun having a heart-to-heart conversation. After that, the two vowed to stay together forever and exchanged rings. Then, the episode returned to the moment when Sang-Hyuk learned from the God of fate that Baek-Ryun’s fate was to die for Jae-Hee. At that moment, Baek-Ryun was sitting inside Jae-Hee’s car with a bomb going off in a few seconds.
When Sang-Hyuk tried to tell Baek-Ryun to get out of the car, the process of his next metamorphosis began. The episode then showcased that Sang-Hyuk previously told his friend, Cheon Dong-Chil, who was another cupid, to shoot him with his arrow when the metamorphosis began. Following Sang-Hyuk’s instructions, Dong-Chil shot him, and his wings turned black in episode 16 of My Man Is Cupid.
However, he was able to break the cocoon and get out of it at the right time to save Baek-Ryun. Right after the bomb inside Jae-Hee’s car exploded, Sang-Hyuk successfully arrived there and flew above with Baek-Ryun in his arms. Jae-Hee witnessed the incident. The serial killer, who was Song Yeong-Cheol, also saw what happened and escaped from the place. Sang-Hyuk went behind him, and the two ended up having a fatal fight.
In the fight, Song Yeong-Cheol fell from a tall building and lost his life. Thus, he received his ultimate punishment for the heinous crimes he committed. However, during the fight, Sang-Hyuk got fatally injured. When Baek-Ryun arrived there, Sang-Hyuk passed away in her arms and vanished into the air. With him, all of his cupid friends also vanished in thin air. Baek-Ryun completely broke down after losing Sang-Hyuk.
