“Queen of Tears” is a 2024 South Korean TV show aired on tvN, written by Park Ji-eun and co-directed by Jang Young-woo and Kim Hee-won. Starring Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won, the series portrays the crisis and rekindling of love between Hong Hae-in, a third-generation chaebol heiress of Queens Group, and Baek Hyun-woo, a man from the countryside. It aired on tvN from March 9 to April 28, 2024, every Saturday and Sunday at 9:20 PM KST, and it’s available for streaming on TVING in South Korea and on Netflix in selected regions.
The show delves into the marriage of Hong Hae-in and Baek Hyun-woo, exploring themes of love, friendship, betrayal, forgiveness, and growth. Baek Hyun-woo, a lawyer from Seoul National University, marries into the wealthy Queens Group without fully understanding its environment. Initially contemplating divorce due to his struggles in adapting, he discovers Hae-in’s brain tumor and decides to support her, even altering her will to ensure her inheritance. As they grow closer, both Baek Hyun-woo and Hae-in find themselves reciprocating feelings.
The series reached a nationwide rating of 24.850% for its final episode, becoming the highest-rated tvN series and the third highest-rated cable television series in South Korean history.
Supporting characters like Yoon Eun-sung and Moh Seul-hee play pivotal roles in the show. Yoon Eun-sung, aiming to take over Queens Group, approaches Hae-in, while Moh Seul-hee, as the mistress of Queens Group chairman Hong Man-dae, manipulates family dynamics to gain control of the conglomerate, revealing a surprising connection to Yoon Eun-sung.
The main cast includes Kim Soo-hyun as Baek Hyun-woo, Kim Ji-won as Hong Hae-in, and Park Sung-hoon as Yoon Eun-sung / David Yoon, along with various supporting actors.
Filmed across South Korea and Germany, the series boasted a total budget of 56 billion won, approximately 35 billion won per episode.
With stunning visuals, glamorous fashion, and stellar performances, “Queen of Tears” captivated audiences and set new viewership records. I highly recommend watching this show.
