Queen of Tears (2024)

Perfect pacing that makes you want to catch up every weekend

Story: Basically about a fresh couple who were in a honeymoon stage and ended up estranged due to a major issue. Both loved each other very much until one forgot how much and the story revolved around how the male lead will realize what made him love the female lead in the first place. It also showed dynamics of different types of families and how they overcome their own issues.

Acting: All cast were amazing and did justice to their own roles. However, Ji Won’s acting felt quite short in some scenes with Soo Hon. I think she tried to keep the cool & collected Hae In characterization but ended up restrained. Other than that, everyone did a fantastic job.

Music: Some songs are quite catchy and got me LSS for a few days.

Rewatch Value: I might rewatch all the funny and romantic scenes of the main couple.

Overall: I think this drama is not something that you should binge watch but rather, a perfect drama that you look forward to every weekend. It’s quite fast-paced so if you watch it in one sitting, I feel like the mystery or anticipation of knowing what will happen next would be different.

Things I like:
A.)Hae In and her mom’s relationship. Having almost the same relationship with my mom, I believe they did great in interpreting how they are still awkward with each other after being estranged for so many years. That kind of relationship won’t be solved in one conversation and has to thread lightly, however, they still know that they love each other as family. Hae In’s mother crying scenes always make me cry.
B.) Hae In’s father internal conflict. I think it was quite nice to actually see his POV as a father.
C.) Soo Cheol and Da Hye’s love story. Although we’ll never know what actually made Soo Cheol fall in love with Da Hye, his love for her and her child is admirable and made me cry a lot times. I guess his lines are quite touching.
D.) Eun Song’s ending. I guess I didn’t expect that because most rom com villains just end up in prison so his ending was quite satisfying.

Ending: Honestly, I don’t know if I like the ending or not. It felt rushed yet beautiful at the same time. Maybe because I still want more interactions from the main couple. Or maybe how they concluded Seul Hee’s story was a bit lame. Because there were some surprising twists in the first few episodes & I expected the main couple to surprise us with their own tactics but finale just ended up having cameos from other actors which felt dull and lacking. Even so, it was still a good watch and the first kdrama that I actually looked forward to every weekend during their broadcast time. Like I literally waited for it to air on Netflix and didn’t miss even when I was on holiday. I was quite invested and I totally ship the main couple in real life, although their chemistry on screen wasn’t the best, they still have sparks.

Emotional driven drama

The name is silly and could turn you off thinking this is some cheap melodrama. It also starts weak and the story is common, but the emotional value is skyrocketing very quickly. That's the main weapon of this k-drama. You ain't gonna watch this for a perfect production, but for the sentimental value.

Highly recommended watch when you're in the mood to receive emotions, otherwise you might get judgy and agree with other low-score reviewers. Don't waste this watch if you're mood is wrong, it's one of those you will remember forever if done at the right time, enjoy!
