This review may contain spoilers
The story goes from HIGH CLASS REVENGE to 》 TWIN FLAMES WHO'S MET THROUGH THE REVENGE PLOT.
WARNING!!! SPOILER AHEAD!!!!!!✅⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
The things that i unexpected it keeps happening. At the beginning toward half ep i think is still a good one to watch, but at the some point i realized the story is more focusing to their affair issue than the main theme of this drama which is REVENGE that they have been planning for 13 years.
Now i will explain to you guys the (-) minus points of this drama:
1. The ending is really disappointed not bcz it has sad ending but bcz the villain charcters just died like that and went crazy, c'mon man they not even have a scene where they sit in the court chair!
2. It tooks 13 episodes for La El identity to get exposed like WHAT?! I mean she did a lot to me that seems suspicious and obvious but she maintains to get until 13 ep safely WOAH.
And i forget in which ep but there's scene where they playing poker game, back then i really thought this poker game is an indicate that they will be fighting head to head, bcz no one is real winner (between Yoon Kyeom and La El) but at the end they not really want to hurt each others, like they could give up everything in order to be with each others, that's really hopeless plot.
3. The one and only upper hand charcter in this drama is Lee La El, execpt her the another charcters have nothing/zero plot twist. Example:
》 Han Pan Ro, he was the most villain in here but he did nothing through the entire show rather than just shouting, demanding, swinging around his beloved hammer. At the end the charcter who used to be ex prime minister is died at his own prison, he not seemed to be use his power, money, and territory to brings La El down.
》 Han So Ra, she also supposed to be strong and evil charcter who can do everything in her way to corner La El and make La El at the weak and devastate situation (even Cheon Seo Jin from drama Penthouse not really this helpless and fight with all her might), but she did nothing than just screaming, shouthing and act like spoiled kid. But what i did not understand was WHY So Ra keep begging her husband loves who never really loves her?.
》 Kang Yoon Gyeom, he was to weak and pathetic in here. No fight back and what suicide!!!!! Hey c'mon man you have a lot unfinished busniess you cannot die just like that, your death literally can be more grand than just drove your car to end your life.
-But Park Byung Eun is nailed it at potraying his charcter as KYG, i mean like his charisma and age is perfect to playing as a chairman, a lot of people criticize his acting because his no expresion face, but for me who have been watching him from drama "Because This Is My First Life", his charcter this time have a very heavy burden and responsible, lost his mom at the young age, his father who never loves him, everyone approaching him bcz of something, marriage not based by love and having wife+father in law like them is really depressing GOSH!. So guys no wonder his character is like emotionless.
4. The highlight of the plot were "₩2 trillion divorce lawsuit that shocks the entire nation caused by Lee La El" but the divorce lawsuit is nearly no a scene, rather than a breaking news in the TV, that's all the highlight is happening around ep 12-13 (i forget the exact ep). And La El identity as Yoon Gyeom mistress is never revealed to public directly or even admitting La El was his mistress.
5. The episodes about affair is too long, so toward ep 14,15,16 that's the real war started and ending too rush, unclear, and hopeless. Even when during the lawsuit trail is not really explained too detail just So-So scenes, Kim Jung Chul, Han Pan Ro, Kang Yoon Gyeom died just LIKE THAT!!!, while KYG died how can Han So Ra still alive not even disable and perfectly fine except her face and the three real villains (HPR, HSR,KJC) in here no one like literally no one who ever confess what are they doing all these time just DIE and WENT CRAZY. NO JUSTICE AT ALL.
6. Writer have a great plot and synopsis, but unfortunately the story goes too far and not even close to main plot focus which is revenge, there's a many of potential story, charcters, and detail to develop and make it into hotter story. But writer miss the opportunity
The story goes from HIGH CLASS REVENGE to 》 TWIN FLAMES WHO'S MET THROUGH THE REVENGE PLOT.
》》》》 Seo Eun Pyeong character also can be more active on chasing for La El love and become head to head rival with Yoon Gyeom, also La El husband can really become a biggest obstacle but they choose to wasting Seo Eun Pyeong and General Jang (aka La El Husband) to make La El realtionship attempts to Yoon Gyeom difficult.
7. Too much of PLOT HOLE, the plot hole is everywhere even after the ending i still have a lot of question.
- What will happen to Da bi and Boram?
- How about Boram dad suddenly disapper in the middle of ep and suddenly appear out of nowhere at ep 14?
-Did they really have 2 daughters? Da bi and Eun-bi, so how can Eun-bi never appear as real life person rather than just a photo, if it just a phote then what's the meaning of having 2 daughters????
-Is KYG really died just like that without funeral (i get it that was his will but still) also without showing his dead body like HELLO!the 1# korea billionaire death just announced by the mere breaking news . Bcz there scene in the ep 16 where La El and Yoon Gyeom talked about piazzolla things so i have assumption "Ah! maybe he's not really died".
The (+) Plus Points from this drama
1. The OST is really great especially the ost part 1 by Kim Ye Ji "Hold Me Tight" and part 3 by Sondia "Want To Be Your Everday" ❤❤❤
2. The Fashion style W.O.A.H. Every each ep i'm looking forward for Seo Yea Ji's fashion.
???
3. There's a lot of life lessons you can take from this drama throught the show
4. The acting of each actor and actress really good one, i big fan of Sang Yeob oppa, watching this drama because he brought me here. But he just SML in here wellllll no problem bcz i also rooting Byung Eun oppa
P.S : i become fans of Sang Yeob oppa since his drama "Doctors" and first time i watched his drama that was "Jang Ok Jung".
Despite the ending of the drama and the plus-minus points in this drama 이브 i really want to say thank you for the staff, writer nim, director nim and every actor/actress who gave their best of the best and pour a lot of effort you guys did very² good job.
Byung Eun+Sang Yeob Oppa Hwaiting?
