Just like the original K-Drama series, Strong Girl Nam-soon features a typical love triangle between two guys and one girl. In this case, however, the two guys who are fighting over Nam-soon are polar opposites. So who does Nam-soon end up with in Strong Girl Nam-soon?  ​​

It's actually a no-brainer. Nam-soon ends up with someone in the season finale. The big question is, however, who will that guy be?

When the show first started, we learned that Nam-soon (played by Lee Yoo-mi) has a major crush on Cha Eun-woo and plans to marry a Korean man once she finds her biological family.

But when she lands in Korea, she comes across a lieutenant who inspects her belongings for any drugs. This guy is none other than Gang Hee-sik (played by Ong Seong-wu), whom she calls Gang Homesick.

Meanwhile, Nam-soon doesn't realize that she actually caught the eye of someone else while they were still on the tarmac: Ryu Shi-oh (played by Byeon Woo-seok).

So between these two, who does Nam-soon end up with?

Although the episodes of Strong Girl Nam-soon are still being released, we can't help but confirm she will end up with Hee-sik. After all, it looks like their relationship has been on the cards since Nam-soon threw a trinket and Hee-sik caught it.

Not to mention, the undeniable chemistry of the two makes this a strong case to believe in.

It's also worth noting that Hee-sik has earned the favor of Nam-soon's own mother, Hwang Geum-joo (played by Kim Jung-eun), ever since he helped reunite the two. Hee-sik was also asked what his relationship with Nam-soon was at a family dinner. He simply responded they needed each other.

Nam-soon also playfully professed her feelings to Hee-sik in Mongolian, a language that Hee-sik doesn't understand.

Ryu Shi-oh

But then again, the villain in the story has been smitten by Nam-soon. Even though he's the villain, many are shipping their tandem.

He has invited Nam-soon to be part of his inner circle and to drop the honorifics when talking to him. In one of the episodes, it also appears like Nam-soon cares for the antagonist.

But of course, we shouldn't think anything from this since she is simply getting on his good side.

Still, there are those who can't help but feel excited about the way Shi-oh looks at her. Just check out this clip:
