Seo Ye Ji “Eve” Korean Drama 2022 Face Mixed Reactions and Issue About 19+ Rating & Age Gap, But Its Ratings Rise!
Nothing can stand on actress Seo Ye Ji’s way to success! Despite having faced various mixed reactions and an issue regarding the 19+ rating and age gap in “Eve” Korean drama, Seo Ye Ji soaring high with the drama’s rising ratings.
Following its premiere on June 1, “Eve” Korean drama immediately faced mixed reactions and a brand-new issue from Korean fans. The first issue was regarding the age gap between the characters, then another one emerged due to the presence of its 19+ rating scene.
19+ Rating Bed Scene Ignited Mixed Reactions about “Eve” Korean Drama
The first issue emerging about “Eve” Korean drama starring Seo Ye Ji, is the appearance of a 19+ rating bed scene. Korean media reported on June 2 that fans began raising an issue about the 19+ rating scenes appearance in “Eve” drama, which was supposed to be a 15+ rating.
In addition, some fans also criticized the setup and excessiveness of the 19+ rating intercourse scene in “Eve” Korean drama. During the episode, Lee Ra El was shown having intercourse with her husband backstage immediately after performing for families of new kindergartners. And not only that, Korean fans also brought into the spotlight that the sex scenes appearing during the first two episodes were too excessive.
After all, within only two episodes, “Eve” Korean drama 2022 has brought up not only Lee Rae El’s 19+ rating scene with her husband but also Kang Yoon Gyeom’s with Han So Ra, as well as Han So Ra with one of her staff members.
According to some viewers, having three 19+ rating intercourse scenes within the first two episodes is too excessive. And not only that, the way these 19+ rating scenes appeared has also lowered the value of the whole storyline of “Eve” Korean drama.

Korean Fans Raise Issue Regarding The Characters’ Age Gap
Along with the 19+ rating scenes issue, several Korean fans began raising an issue about the age gap between the characters immediately after “Eve” Korean drama 2022 premiered on June 1.
In “Eve” Korean drama 2022, Seo Ye Ji plays the character of Lee Ra El, who is 28 years old. At the same time, Park Byung Eun’s character, Kang Yoon Gyeom, is 41 years old. In addition, Korean fans also raised the fact that the second lead character, Seo Eun Pyung (Lee Sang Yeob), is apparently 38-years old.
According to Korean fans, this large age gap between the main characters is a far greater issue than the 19+ rating scenes. That is because some of the fans openly stated that it is truly uncomfortable having a married 40-year-old and 38-year-old men harboring feelings for a married 28-year-old woman.
Indeed, the plot and storyline are supposed to be outstanding, especially with its extravagant revenge story. However, fans believe that having such a large age gap between the leads within such storyline has become a huge issue in “Eve” Korean drama.
At the same time, other fans believe that age gaps have been such a prevalent factor in Korean drama. Therefore, even when the age gap has become such a big issue for Korean fans, international fans just simply laugh it off.

Netizens were complaining about the characters' 13 year age gap in the K-drama EVE since he's 41 and she's 28. But no one blinked an eye when So JiSub (who is now 44) married a much younger woman in real life (who is now 25)?
