Véspera

The story is super entertaining and climaxes are really strong.

Every actor/actress has played his/her character perfectly was zero boring or useless scenes Every episode is stronger than the latest one Now I'm on ep 14 and it's literally fire and I can't wait to see the last 2 episodes.

Seo Ye Ji's comeback show, Eve, started off well in it's first few episodes where she plays the lead character Ra El, looking for revenge on those who had his life trampled upon. The first half of the show's plot development is fantastic. The pilot episode and the initial sequences, including the opening scene, all had a constant flow and a number of peaks. The show's plot thickens with each passing episode as Ra El accomplishes more of her goals. We must acknowledge the way in which the characters' pasts were handled during times of uncertainty.

It's sluggish in the later half of the show, but it keeps you engaged and curious about what's to come. I felt there was too much of romance and less of revenge story going on in 2nd half, which made me uninterested a little, however Ye Ji was phenomenal in her role and she portrayed it really well, which made me stick to the show very end. The penultimate and concluding episode were the weakest episodes of the drama and evidently doesn't compares tp to other revenge thrillers, this is not one to write home about and ultimately struggles to stand out.

My Rating : 7.5/10.

I started this kdrama and the only thing i knew was that it's a makjang, a revenge story by a strong female lead, that's what i signed for and it's what i got.

It's true we've seen many revenge stories and this isn't completely new but the actors made it really interesting, everybody gave solid performances and the chemistry between the characters was really amazing especially Seo yea ji and Park Byung Eun, their chemistry was good and delivered one of their best performances so far, Lee sangyeob too was phenomenal and the way he acts with all the emotions in the eyes is noticeable.

I also appreciate the details, the fashion and the music, but unfortunately the direction and the filter they used on the actors downgraded the quality of the product, it was so unpleasant to watch on screen.

About the plot, it's true that it has many flaws and it could've been executed better but it was watchable until the last 2 episodes, nothing made sense and it got so ridiculous it ruined my experience watching this drama. Overall such a good makjang that deserves better ending.

Damn, what can I say? The plot is very cool and interesting, but a little dragged out at the beginning, towards the end they already sped up, so much so that all these pursuits were no worse than American crime series, BUT the technical approach in Korean dramas just kills, the cameraman simply shoots faces in all possible angles in tense moments, I understand that they want to heat up the tension, but the editor adds slow motion so that we understand for sure that at this moment we need to tense up, and how does he add flashbacks to remind us 34987 times that they love each other so much, or something like that, at such moments I just skipped, because in reality 5% of the timing is just flashbacks in slow motion, with a spillover effect, as if it was edited by a first-grader

in short, the drama is cool, but the technical points and Park Byung-eun's face are like a brick..

So in the end, what started as a great drama about a vengeful woman turned into a farce. Really great storyline at the beginning. Seo Ye Ji as La El absolutely phenomenal. However, there was a turning point in the middle and the main character became a woman in love who competes with a psychopathic billionaire for the love of a man who has trouble showing any emotions. The male lead character showed almost no emotions or feelings throughout and it was quite difficult to believe that he was head over heels in love with the female lead. It's quite a pity that the goal of the series - revenge - completely disappeared in the second half and instead a typical love triangle appeared, where two absolutely phenomenal actresses compete for a man who, as I already wrote, did not show any relationship towards anyone during the entire series. ..
