I just read some spoilers from the novel, believe me, this is the best ending they could have given to the webtoon.
Here’s the link, and I’m copying and pasting a comment: https://www.novelupdatesforum.com/threads/plaything-the-toy-of-a-grand-duke.117318/page-2
So llic and Sayan been together for 20yrs (10yrs then timeskip to another 10yrs)
Ilic doesn't seem to see it as a full romance, he never said I love you to sayan but he knows after so many years that Sayan is his partner.
Now llic has a dream and in the end of the dream Sayan dies, he wakes up.
So at the end of the story he's with Sayan (alive) beside him but he's thinking that all the things in the dream are happening in reality. So to put it this way, its foreshadowing that Sayan is to die sometimes shortly after the ending of the novel. It's also bittersweet because Sayan loves IIic but llic never really seem to be in love but the same he was (its kinda hard put, you would need read the novel to understand). [EDIT: oh I found the perfect phrase for this, it's that llic with never love Sayan the way Sayan wants him to love him despite them being together for so long]
Some say he did die at the end but either way Sayan does dies despite him being alive at the end. It's also mention how he's sick but do keep in mind, at this time they are old

La historia me encantó y me la leí hace mucho tiempo y me la vuelvo a leer xD pero a pesar de que quería que el prota se quedara con el hombre ese que lo trataba bien, siento que a pesar de eso, el amó y amará más al otro prota xD(sorry olvidé los nombres) pero es el sentimiento que me deja al final, aunque es muy realista pero no me saco de la cabeza que amó más al otro :( es muy sad
