Oh My Ghost Clients Ending Explained: Was the Building Collapse Real? Did Mu-jin Finally Find Closure with His Brother?

Oh My Ghost Clients Ending Explained: K-dramas have a strong track record of mixing fantasy, comedy, and social commentary, but 노무사 노무진 was able to serve up all three in record-breaking emotional depth. Im Soon-rye directs, with always-brilliant Jung Kyung-ho appearing as labor attorney No Mu-jin, with Seol In-ah as the hot-headed paralegal Hui-joo, Cha Hak-yeon as the eccentric YouTuber Gyeon-u, and Jin Seon-kyu as Mu-jin’s brother No U-jin, whose storyline becomes the fulcrum of the show’s back half. Toss in a divine wild card in the person of Bo-sal (played by scene-stealer Tang Jun-sang) and you’ve got a cast that’s laugh-out-loud funny and heart-wrenchingly human.

The Oh My Ghost Clients Kdrama starts with overworked labor attorney No Mu-jin signing a supernatural contract on a whim that obligates him to assist ghosts in gaining justice. Every episode is a new ghost case—overworked nurses and elderly janitors, victims of warehouse collapses—all involving links to real labor concerns such as wage theft, hostile work environment, and corporate complicity. Along the way, Mu-jin is assisted by Hui-joo and Gyeon-u, not only to solve the mystery, but to develop together as they battle.

As the series continues, Mu-jin is a household name after taking down corrupt corporations and exposing labor abuses in viral videos. Oh My Ghost Clients Episode 9 brings the most sensational case yet: a deadly warehouse fire in a logistics warehouse that killed seven individuals. Mu-jin fights Myeongum Corporation and a corrupt assemblywoman, almost losing his life in the process. Episode 10 is a surreal, near-apocalyptic episode where a building collapses and Mu-jin is transported to the afterlife—only to be told it was a dream or vision by Bo-sal. The dream makes him realize the implications of his actions, reforming even the corrupt CEO Kim Myung-an.

In the end, the CEO closes down all buildings, publicly apologizes, and promises to reform. Assemblywoman Moon promises to tighten up laws for the protection of employees. The ghostly spirits of the victims of the fire are finally at rest. Mu-jin makes amends with his wife, Mi-joo, and even Yoon-jae begins studying for the bar to join their cause. Just as it seems Mu-jin’s ghost contract is fulfilled, a ghost calls for him one last time—leaving us with a last “Why?!” that implies the work may not yet be done.

Why did Mu-jin sign the contract with Bo-sal?

The contract that Mu-jin entered into in the first episode—and again in the dream—represents his moral obligation. Bo-sal is witty and manipulative and turns up as the comic relief, but he is a spiritual master urging Mu-jin to fight against injustices he would otherwise have overlooked. When he signs the contract in his blood in the dream, we see how much Mu-jin has put into helping the ghosts, but also into healing the world of the living.

Did The Building Actually Collapse or Was It Just a Dream?

That catastrophic collapse we saw at the start of Oh My Ghost Clients Episode 10 turned out to be a simulation or spiritual vision afterwards. In the dream, Mu-jin and CEO Kim fall into a blazing pit, and next they are nose-to-nose with Bo-sal in a purgatory-like environment. Mu-jin is told he has 49 days to fix things or be taken to hell. While the events that transpired are not real, the implication is clear: if he does nothing, this nightmare will be real. The dream pushes Mu-jin and the CEO towards redemption, and when they wake up, things begin to change in the real world.

This subplot quietly simmers in the background but pays off emotionally in Episode 10. Mu-jin goes to the memorial of his brother U-jin and has a poignant conversation with his ghost. This is a scene about bereavement, remorse, and recovery. Mu-jin’s tears—and his brother’s gentle nudging to utter the words “I love you”—provide the closure he’s been denying himself all along. It’s a pivotal moment that echoes how he assists the ghosts: providing peace to the bereaved.

Will There Be Oh My Ghost Clients Season 2?

In the final second, Mu-jin hears a ghost call out his name and he spins around, shouting, “Why?!” It’s a classic K-drama move that leaves the door very wide open. It implies that although the original contract has expired, Mu-jin’s ability—or obligation—to assist lost souls might be infinite. After all, not everyone is born for this work—it selects them. Oh My Ghost Clients ending gave us laughter, tears, and a powerful message: justice doesn’t end with the living, and healing sometimes starts with hearing the dead. Whether there will or won’t be a season two, Mu-jin’s story feels like one that will endure. And it might return with season 2 but when we don’t know yet.
