Each episode of “Eve” continues to unravel a never-ending mystery!
tvN’s romance-revenge drama “Eve” is about a chaebol‘s 2 trillion won (approximately $1.7 billion) divorce lawsuit that shocks the entire nation. Unbeknownst to the public, the lawsuit is the result of a carefully calculated revenge scheme 13 years in the making.
Seo Ye Ji stars as Lee Ra El, the dangerously alluring woman at the center of the divorce lawsuit whose true identity and lifestyle is slowly starting to come to light. As the drama continues to dive deeper into Lee Ra El’s quest for revenge, here are three of the biggest lies she’s told so far.
The mysterious Lee Ra El has numerous cards up her sleeve, such as her second identity Kim Sun Bin. In the latest broadcast, National Assembly member Seo Eun Pyung (Lee Sang Yeob) investigated the belongings of Kang Yoon Kyum (Park Byung Eun) to check whether Lee Ra El was alive. After discovering a photo of Ra El, he visited her studio and she introduced herself as Kim Sun Bin. On top of that, all the certificates placed around her studio were awarded to Kim Sun Bin, previewing her extreme lie of falsifying her identity in order to get revenge. However, Seo Eun Pyung was eventually able to confirm that Kim Sun Bin is Lee Ra El, leaving viewers wondering how his awareness will affect the story.
Instead of living with her real mother Kim Jin Sook (Kim Jung Young), Lee Ra El instead lives with Jang Moon Hee (Lee Il Hwa) and they pretend to be mother and daughter. Although they have demonstrated their sweet mother-daughter relationship in front of Seo Eun Pyung and even Lee Ra El’s husband Jang Jin Wook (Lee Ha Yul) and daughter Jang Bo Ram (Kim Si Woo), the pair is completely different when they’re alone. Specifically when Seo Eun Pyung visits Lee Ra El, Jang Moon Hee states, “We’ve prepared for over 10 years. You can’t be interrupted by anyone.”
Additionally, Lee Ra El’s real mother Kim Jin Sook’s resident registration has been written off and she is unable to be found, leaving viewers questioning whether she is alive.
Inside Lee Ra El’s room of secrets is a wall full of photos featuring anyone and everyone associated with Kang Yoon Kyum, her target for revenge. A particular photo of interest was taken in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2011 of Kang Yoon Kyum and Lee Ra El’s husband Jang Jin Wook. Lee Ra El uses this to try and steal Kang Yoon Kyum’s heart through tango dancing and bandoneon, which are representative of Argentina.
As this shows that Lee Ra El’s dancing and music ability is solely for revenge, it raises questions about whether her marriage to Jang Jin Wook is also part of her scheme.
Despite only being a week into broadcasts, “Eve” has showcased a jam-packed and detailed story of Lee Ra El’s life and revenge plan, raising anticipation for what’s to come.
Episode 3 of “Eve” will air on June 8 at 10:30 p.m. KST.
