Simple. Sophisticated. But not quite.
The Goddess of Revenge is an okay drama. I just dont understand the such terrible reviews for this.
As for the story, it's fine. Its nothing extravegant, its decent to say the least. Decent plot twists, decent scenarios, decent premises for every episode. Even if the actual story only starts around EP10 and felt like it would have been better if it was only 12 episodes and it went straight to the point.
Although one commendalble thing on the plot is that its a unique take on the revenge plot. Its not a typical plot, but I dont think it was enough to cover up the flaw of a slow and all direction plot
The acting was fine as well. Kim Sarang's portrayal of Kang Hera was fine. Although she lacked with facial expressions, she still manages to carry the complex character of Hera but not much justice. Yoon Hyunmin on the other hand, was fine as well. I just dont think the actor fits this kind of role, cause I cant really see him as a revenge guy.
The others was fine too, nothing much to commend or critisize.
The OST and BGMs are fitting and quite great. It plays at the correct moments and all that, I think we can give the drama credit for that. Although it was nothing out unique.
The rewatch value is almost little to nothing. After watching, you wouldnt really have any strong feelings for it that you just kinda forget it and dont watch it ever again.
Overall, 6.5 stars. It's something, but also almost nothing at times. Yes, the writers high cause *Makjang* but its personally not a hindrance. I reccommend it if you have nothing to watch anymore, but if you want something better. Sure there are more.
