Episode 10 of the KBS2 K-drama The Last Summer, aired on November 30, 2025, delivers intense emotional peaks as Song Ha Gyeong confronts her unresolved feelings for Baek Do Ha, the manipulative twin brother who returns each summer.
The story revolves around the twins Baek Do Ha and Baek Do Yeong, separated by their parents’ divorce, reuniting in their childhood home where Ha Gyeong, their neighbor and childhood friend, gets pulled into their drama. In this standout episode, Ha Gyeong admits her lingering affection for Do Ha after a nostalgic day together, echoing their school days filled with bickering and stargazing.
Ha Gyeong’s passive nature draws criticism, as she tolerates Do Ha’s oversteps like sneaking into her home uninvited and dragging her into public scenes without pushing back. Fans puzzle over her extreme emotional spirals tied to past traumas, including Do Ha impersonating his brother during her mother’s illness to spare her pain.
The enigmatic lawyer, Su Hyeok, adds intrigue with his subtle charm and unclear intentions toward Ha Gyeong, offering a respectful contrast to Do Ha’s jerkish antics.
Previews hint at escalating chaos with Do Ha’s mother appearing, the lawyer entangled in the mess, heated confrontations, and Do Ha collapsing, reviving classic K-drama tropes of revelations and crises.
Despite strong performances from leads Lee Jae-wook and Choi Sung-eun, the series grapples with sagging ratings due to formulaic plotting. This episode wraps major arcs while dangling threads on property feuds and reopened wounds, making it a gripping pseudo-finale that leaves viewers craving resolution.
