The Impossible Heir finale opens with Han Tae Oh (played by Lee Jae Wook) grieving his mother. He receives a letter his mom left asking him to let go of the past and start anew. He reflects on his journey and promises unconscious Chairman Kang Joong Mo that he will protect the Kang conglomerate.
Meanwhile, Kang Sung Ju (Lee Ji Hoon) confronts his imprisoned mother about her greed, which caused him a lifetime of misery. Park Sa Jin also receives a call from his prison doctor daughter, Park Jin Gyeong.
Are we seriously supposed to believe this asshole shed a tear because Tae Oh said he’d protect the company? 🙄
That was just stupid and unnecessary. #TheImpossibleHeir #TheImpossibleHeirEp12 #TheImpossibleHeirFinale #로얄로더 pic.twitter.com/MiV7tWQbNa

At the shareholders’ meeting, Kang In Ha (Lee Jun Young) is arrested for the murders of Kang In Ju (Han Sang Jin) and Mo Gi Jun (Kwon Hyuk). Jin Gyeong reveals how In Ju’s actions drove her to drug addiction, prompting Park Sajin to seek justice.
Prosecutor Ha Myung Jun confronts In Ha, and In Ha believes he’ll escape due to lack of evidence. However, Myung Jun brings in Mo Gi Jun alive and sound and plays an audio tape indicating that In Ha murdered his step-brother In Ju and let Gi Jun take the fall for it. The following day, prosecutors raid In Ha’s office, and Joong Mo orders In Ha’s last name to be changed from Kang to Baek, to where he previously belonged.

In court, In Ha remains silent and receives a life sentence. During their final meeting, Tae Oh and In Ha share a tense silence before Tae Oh leaves with a graduation photo. Kang Hee Joo (Choi Hee Jin) leaves for an extended vacation, and Na Hye Won (Hong Suzu) works for the President.
This scene really broke my heart.
Had it not been for In ha's greed and selfish desires, they would have been great partners and good friends.#TheImpossibleHeir#TheImpossibleHeirEp12 #LeeJaeWook #LeeJunYoung #HongSuZu pic.twitter.com/n7iZjTkb25— DAPHNE (@_unnie_daph) April 3, 2024
