Karma ending explained

Did Park Jae-yeong finally get the insurance money?

Park Jae-yeong ultimately did not get the insurance payout. The bank then revealed that Jae-yeong's father had changed his will just weeks before his passing. He requested that the church he used to attend get the insurance proceeds. His dad also left a recording in which he stated that he knows that after his son gets to know that he altered the will, he will come to the church and create a scene.

So basically, all this drama but no money at the end.

Ju-yeon¡¯s trauma and nightmares

Ju-yeon's story is one of trauma, trauma stemming from a single night of torture and assault that still plagues her twenty years later. She leads a miserable life since she frequently has dreams about the tragedy. The worst of her trauma is thus understandably triggered by Park Jae-yeong's regrettable return to her life, and all she wants to do is stab him. She refuses to listen to him, even when he attempts to explain that there is some deceit lying ,and she hits him while sobbing uncontrollably. We also see Ju-yeon say that after 20 years, she finally had a night without nightmares.
