cathartically beautiful
Ignore the bad reviews, this drama is definitely worth the watch. Don't miss out.My only grievance with this drama was that the episodes got longer and longer as the show went on. Almost to like literal movie length episodes and it was kinda hard to watch them after work when I'm exhausted (I work in a hospital so I'm always tired haha). I feel like it could've had shorter episodes around the 1hour mark and maybe 20-24 episodes instead? That was the only fault I found with the show. Aside from that, I loved it so much.
Be prepared for a lot of angst and PAIN from start to finish. You will cry. You will laugh. You will scream at all the twists and turns along the way. Some twists were super predictable (but aren't most kdramas like this?), still as a whole it was a cathartically beautiful drama. You can expect the same level of angst/pain as Crash Landing on You.
The entire cast was brilliant and nailed their roles. I am going to miss watching them every week.
Oh and the chemistry between the leads is electric <3

Excelente
Todos los cliches de los kdramas en 16 episodios. Desde que se conocían de niños hasta la pérdida de memoria. El trabajo del guionista y del elenco es EXCELENTE. Si no te encariñas ni un poquito es porque no tenes alma. No es apresurado decir que es el mejor drama de 2024 (o al menos dejó la vara muy alta)......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

First Modern KDrama and it wasn't bad
Story:-The story was predictable and lots of things not realistic but it's a drama
-Lots of soap opera drama techniques
-Good preview for me to see how wealthy Koreans live and rural ones in modern day
-Shows human nature is same in all different economic stratas
-The brain tumor was plausible but the operation/etc was not, FL was perfect hair/face right after
-Hilarious that ML thought the vintage Channel clothing was what his grandma would wear
Acting:
-Good acting for all of the cast
-FL was beautiful and acted the snotty, aristocratic, arrogant, stubborn 3rd gen wealthy CEO of a dept store though also human wanting to be loved and appreciated very well
-ML was so good as the country boy falling in love with the "poor" girl and then realizing how hard it is to live in a crazy rich family where the wife's family rules because they have the money and power...well acted
-Villians made you feel sorry for them and dislike them
-Auntie was the best character...hilarious
-Liked the Auntie's wanna be suitor too
Overall: Fun drama to watch knowing it is definitely drama!

This story is Wild!
Many may not fully grasp the depth of this drama upon first viewing, but "Queen of Tears" encapsulates a poignant message: love means protecting those dear to us, regardless of their nature or station in life. This theme resonates powerfully throughout the narrative, particularly in the portrayal of a mother who forsakes her son in pursuit of wealth and influence which causes a problem for Baek Hyun Woo. The series serves as a poignant reminder that while wealth may be sought after, insatiable greed for it can exact a heavy toll, endangering not only one's own life but also the lives of those cherished.Kim Soo Hyun's return to the screen as Baek Hyun Woo, the Attorney, marks a stellar performance, showcasing his acting prowess since his last appearance that I viewed him in 2020. As a dedicated follower of his work since his early guest roles in 2012, I've consistently admired his talent, and he doesn't disappoint in this role. Likewise, Kimin Ji Won, whom I adored as Tan Ya in the "Articles of Chronicles" series, delivers another remarkable performance as Hong Hai In, seamlessly embodying her character with echoes of her previous roles. Their contributions elevate the drama, leaving a lasting impression on viewers.

I think its going to be one of the best rom-com of 2024
the best thing I like about this drama is that it gives you emotional complexity I mean you laugh watching a scene and if you think reasonably then in next moment you also feel guilt watching the same scene like I should not be laughing its not right.And the next best thing is that you just can not take a side (ML/FL) some times you feel like ML is right he is not doing anything wrong its just his circumstances but you also can not be able to say that FL is wrong means you just can not decide whose side to take and how you should feel.
well there`s only 2 episodes out and this is what I got after watching, I will be keep updating if needed.
Episode-5 :- Noe it started to explore the emotion aspects and their bonding with eachother and slowly but surely it started to turning into a more of lovely emotional and romantic drama....along with fun and spice.
Well I don't want write anymore I just think you should watch and you will be surprised.
One thing I can say for sure is that this drama will chalange your emotions in every episode (don't think that this your normal rom com).

must watch
Queen of tears is a family drama based on a married couple who start by lacking romance, lots of misunderstanding and both having high ego. However when the drama unfolds, we can truly see the love they have for each other even though they have lots of misunderstanding between each other and so on, their love does not change. Moving forward, we get to see how the love of one another will make them die to save the other.Hyunwoo (the male lead):
started off: egoistic, selfish & uncomfortable with current position
ended off as: kind, supportive, die for wife, smart and best husband
Hae in (the female lead):
started off: introverted, has ego, rude, and insecure about herself
ended off as: straightforward with her love, nice, cute & loving wife
OST's are amazing, especially if you're carat since 3 members of svt sing one of the main ost
if you do watch please understand the drama is a FAMILY based one so there will be lots of family time rather than just the couple themselves

Another kind of relationship
This drama wasn't cheesy, sweet and boring with expected ending. Almost until the last episode I still didn't know if they would end up happy together.If we are talking about the acting I don't have any bad comments about that. Actors were chosen perfectly, they really did an amazing job fom walking confidently to every emotion. The realiationship between the couple wasn't ordinary, the fact that they were married and found the forgotten love makes this drama unique. Of course along the way I lost the idea that it's a romcom it was more drama type, except for their family scenes and feuds.
I just want to remember the scene where Huyn Woo was drying Hae In's hair and feel the love from that moment, that little gesture showed that they're reallly in love.

Reality with all the trope of Kdramaland
I was initially waiting for it to complete. but Kim Soo Hyun 's meme broke my control and I suffered the suffering of waiting for ep every week.Tho the drama started of with the conflicts and lack of communication, it's a good watch because it always told everyone what makes the relationship stronger. what a family should be and how much space, time and communication given to them is important
Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji won....and Sorry Eun sung, I don't know your name. I thought you guys just loved the character. Seo choel ahhhh can I adopt you? You are just too much of a green planet that I can't handle you.
The OSTs are just the feast to ears. The most satisfying ending I got in recent times though we didn't get a lot of scenes of their sweet love phase. But the scenes we got never made me cringy but made me giggle.
Soo Hyun and Ji won are really good in making us cry...
Though I never Re-watch anything that I finished in general, I don't mind rewatch the ending. But TvN you better give us a special episode with BeakHong's scenes that we never got in the whole series

Beautiful
Charming story, I enjoyed every episode thoroughly and the characters made me genuinely care about each one of them.For me, it was an emotional rollercoaster ride, so much that I became the queen of tears myself with how much I cried as the plot unfolded , both happy and sad tears I must add.
Without a doubt this drama now has a special place in my heart as one of my all-time favorites.

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.
