"Snow White's Revenge" it's a revenge story about Seol Ah, a woman who lost her father at a young age, when he married a woman named Jeong In, a gold digger who married him to take his money. When he learns the truth, Jeong In along with her boyfriend Tae Chang kill Seol Ah's father and the girl witness everything.
Seol Ah goes to live in an orphanage and there she meets Jin Ho, starting a relationship that will last over 10 years, until he gets in an accident and loses his memory. She is reunited with Jin Ho, when she becomes a writer for a drama named "Poker Face" and he's the main lead, the problem is Jin Ho doesn't remember her, so Seol Ah tries to make him remember her.
By spending time with Jin Ho, who's now being called Woo Jin, Seol Ah learns that he's not a very good person. Even when his memory returns, Woo Jin doesn't want to go back to the time he was Jin Ho, he doesn't want to lose his fame, become a nobody again... There's even a moment in episode 31 when Woo Jin uses Seol Ah's feelings, being all sweet with her, only because he wanted her to delete a post she made on the internet, telling people about their past, how they lived together and even were expecting a child. When she doesn't want to do that, Woo Jin becomes violent and even slaps her. After that, he even made a statement to the media making himself the victim.
This is exactly why I don't understand the drama's ending. How does it make sense that Seol Ah and Woo Jin ended up together? This is ridiculous. He was a horrible person that abandoned her, hurt her in many ways, only because he was shot, everything is alright? How can a woman do this to herself, after everything he did to her? Doesn't she have any dignity? Seeing them happily in that orphanage, it was just weird. What about Hyun Woo? Seol Ah accepted his feelings and left him for Woo Jin? I don't think this drama leaves a very good message to viewers, specially about a healthy relationship.
Ju Ryun is a ridiculous character. She's not the villain, she keeps crying all the time and fighting with Seol Ah because of Woo Jin. It's sad to see such a beautiful woman low herself to that level because of a man and I even couldn't even hate her, because to me she was only pitiful.
What the hell was the whole thing with Jeong In being Woo Jin's mother? The weird thing is the way she starts to treat him when she learns the truth. It was really creep, specially because she doesn't say that she's his mother. I have to say that in some moments I thought Jeong In was really in love with him and not like a mother.
And what was Seol Ah's revenge? What exactly did she do to avenge her father's death? She only complained, but still kept was working for Jeong In's company, doing nothing legally to show the truth out, so it was basically nothing for 102 episodes. How are we supposed to like this? The only person who actually did a revenge in this story was Sun Ae, she was an amazing woman who avenged the death of her two sons and helped Seol Ah in the process. Without Sun Ae, Seol Ah wouldn't have done anything.
The drama is really bad, there's nothing good about it. The acting is weak, the characters are terribly written, the story is confusing and there's no clear direction in the story's development. It's not something I would recommend to someone to watch, it's not worth it.
