Knowing about Ra-el’s backstory, Eve Episode 2 surprised fans as they met Ra-el’s supposed mother. Fans become well aware the woman is not the same person from Ra-el’s flashbacks, but the question of who she really is is a mystery. As Eun-pyeong looks into Ra-el after receiving the package, he learns Ra-el’s mother’s registration number is expired, and no one knows where she is.
Later in the episode, Ra-el furthers her plan and switches the backpack of So-ra’s daughter with someone else’s. It leads the parents and the children to learn her daughter wears diapers. It leads to a scuffle where Ra-el proposes a solution to the headmaster.
She meets with Soon-kyum at her dance studio and charms him. Yoon-kyum agrees to apologize to the parents and allow his daughter to attend ballet classes at Ra-el’s studio. Her plan is set in motion as she uses his daughter to meet with him and continue her seduction.
Fans also learned part of Ra-el’s plan was to learn about Yoon-kyum’s interests, like the tango and the bandoneon. By the end of the episode, fans learn Ra-el changed her name to Kim Sun-bin and does not acknowledge Eun-pyeong when he visits her. Ra-el’s “mother” is also in on the revenge plan. Fans finally see Ra-el’s revenge board full of the people she plans to destroy and photos of her husband in Buenos Aires with Yoon-kyum.
What led Ra-el to develop a 13-year revenge plan?
Eve Episode 2 furthers the details of Ra-el’s past. In the first episode, fans learn her father was beaten to death by Pan-ro’s subordinate Jung-chul. Her father was forced to sign a contract marking him a company spy. But his refusal leads to his death and is publically announced as a suicide. Fan learned Pan-ro is corrupt and used his power to take over LY Group and Ra-el’s father’s company Jediks.
The second episode shows more with fans learning Ra-el’s father transferred company shares in her name. It leads to disaster as Ra-el learns her father’s right-hand man also betrayed him and forces her to sign away her shares.
Fans learn Jediks was Korea’s leading semiconductor company, with Ra-el’s father described as a “Bill Gates.” Ra-el’s father knew of Pan-ro’s connections and feared the worst after refusing to merge with LY Group.
