Queen of Tears (2024)

Queen of Tropes

Let's start by saying that I'm not a sworn enemy of tropes. Euripides and Shakespeare used them all the time to good effect in similarly dramatic works. QoT *almost* uses a million of them to good effect. The problem is that they wore out by episode 12. After that you have to get to the bottom of the barrel to keep the bad guys getting badder and the good guys, um, gooder. By the end, in which all just deserts are served and loose ends are tied up, the tropes are about as appetizing as a bar rag at 3 am.

As others have said this show is carried by the acting. The leads' performance is nothing short of spectacular. I can find no fault in the acting, production, or directing, all of which maximized the middling potential of the overambitious script that they were given. I've spent enough time on sets to recognize the brilliant work of the crew in scenery, lighting, outdoor settings, everything. And I couldn't get enough of Berlin.

This is not my usual style of show. I didn't even like CLOY. But it caught my attention. The only thing that held back QoT's binge potential for me was that it was emotionally INTENSE. I rarely watch anything twice but understand why others would want to do so. For all these reasons I rate it highly.

Literally became the Queen of Tears watching this.

I just want to say, this deserve all the hype its getting. It broke me out of my kdrama-drought.
If you don't like angst then this is not for you. I don't think I've ever cried this much watching a k-drama.

I give it a solid 8. My thoughts are all over the place but will just use bulletpoints.

- Great cast and acting from all characters!
- Top-notch pairing KimxKim couple!
- OST is on repeat as we speak!
- Story/plot was there but felt like it was lost near the last few eps, so it felt rushed and seemed like it just needed to end and tie it all in somehow.
- EunSeong was unbearable, like boyyyy that's not love, that's obsession but didn't care much for the villains tbh.
- I would have loved to see a "what went wrong in our marriage" conversation between the leads. eg. the miscarriage pain T_T
- Why didn't HI see/watch HW pre-recorded video??? would have loved to cry some more.
- The final ep where they show they grew old and HI died first of old age was nice but I needed more, like the life before they grew old, maybe HI remembering more memory here and there not just a quick scene of them with their kid.
- I did like the auntie at first but she got a bit too much and did not need to have that many scenes esp for the final ep.
- May rewatch but only if I wanna cry or watch their sweet/funny scenes.
- Will pay to see eps about their pre-marriage hehe

Random fact: I didn't see them, but I was in Berlin last year July, just crazy to think they were also there filming! Would have loved to see them!!

Soooo, what do I watch now.... T_T BRB just gonna scroll Tiktok for more behind the scenes and fan edits.

BAD WRITING , WRITER LOVES THE VILLANS,A MELODRAMA

Queen of tears showed us marriage isn't always the happily ever after, you can marry the love of your life and still be unhappy and miserable, that love alone is not enough to hold a marriage together, without understanding and communication it will fall apart.“till death do us apart.” these words are really embodies their relationship. their love story is way too beautiful since the beginning, it’s a whole life history?.
the beginning to end we got to see their journey of broken marriage to a happy family ?.The drama might have a bigger audience but for me the only good thing about the story was the cast's excellent acting. Plot was all over the place, it got too unrealistic and filmy after the second half.

Am I weird if I liked the beginning much more than the ending?

The story definitely had potential. When I started watching, I was hoping for a lot of interesting action, especially in connection with Hyun-woo being tormented and abused by Hea-in's family, I secretly hoped that maybe he would want to take some revenge on them. Ultimately, however, we get another love story in which ML has to be perfect and do everything for FL. I see a lot of wasted potential. I will probably rewatch the first episode, but never the entire series. Over time, the story becomes terribly boring and predictable ??‍♀️ Nothing fresh, nothing surprising.

The Woman Who Lived Two Times

Surrounded by a media hype worthy of the best previous series, 'Queen of Tears' certainly passes the test of success, but it doesn't reach the qualitative heights envisaged by its authors, due to a somewhat too schematic and rather predictable development, which doesn't integrate perfectly with the amount of material available, leaving us with the impression of a possible missed masterpiece...

Yes, because this supremely romantic and poignant love story is supported by the usual exaggerated set of narrative stylistic traits, bordering on makjang, with which we are all familiar and which provide the necessary boost for the development and the need to keep the attention threshold high throughout the 16 long episodes; narrative stylistic traits which, however, do not seem to be able to decisively innovate the plot's contents...

The feeling is that of being faced with a very costly author's “centone” *, a patchwork of other dramas capable of advancing more by twists and disruptive emotional jolts than by a consequentiality of narrative logic.

The heart before the mind, one might say... which, let's be clear, is a beautiful way of developing a truly redundant story, of sublime love and certainly moving (prepare your handkerchiefs because it is very emotional...), at least for me, an incurable romantic, but which fails to dare to use a more innovative language, not even experimental, but perhaps less mechanical and accommodating, made more to please the audience, who are evidently already well predisposed...

Personally, and this is not a very good sign, I found myself, quite surprisingly, mentally anticipating several plot twists which then punctually occurred, such as:
- The Hong family's hurried escape, with their arrival in the village of Yongdu-ri, which introduces a great narrative twist for one of my favourite moments of the drama, with very funny situations almost in the style of "Family Outing"
- The press conference with Hae-in's confession, absolutely inevitable at that point in the story
- The predictable and dare I say "announced" sequence with the encounter at the traffic lights and the related “traffic accident”.

Here and there one has the suspicion of a fabricated cult classic, perhaps capable of repeating the enthusiastic success of "Crash Landing On You" (even mentioned in a fleeting appearance in a scene on the TV) without, however, having the same narrative force as its predecessor, which, unlike "Queen of Tears", is capable of escaping a schematic manicheism bordering on sketchiness, and can also count on a decidedly more interesting backstory... It is precisely in the pursuit of a familiar, self-indulgent and quite quotable scheme that 'Queen of Tears' reveals perhaps the least convincing side of its construction, as well as in some not entirely successful acting passages...

The pattern is quite common in the portrayal of the Hong family, with rather classic family characters and dynamics, accompanied, however, by some very good performances, especially by the always excellent Na Young Hee and, of course, Lee Mi Sook who, with those beady eyes, makes us realise immediately where this is going...
The Baek family, with the usual array of villagers to temper the narrative tension, is just the right amount of fun, although I didn't find the group of friends from the hairdresser's salon particularly entertaining.

Even the "company" part in the department store doesn't exactly shine with originality, with the usual set of classic assistants/employees, but a special mention for Yoon Bo Mi who is really cute and funny; Hyun Woo's group of friends/lawyers is of a good standard, capable of giving us some funny moments (the advice on divorce!), as well as the inevitable decisive actions to help our hero.

In the brilliant performance of a stunning Kim Ji Won we must recognise the true strength of the drama, with a staggering characterisation, of great artistic maturation, capable of penetrating into the essence of the scenes, alternating moments of frenzy, often irresistibly comic, with others of pure emotion where the simple facial expressions communicate more than a thousand words, for what is truly the perfect interpretation of a woman who lived two times; while it is perhaps in Kim Soo Hyun's work that one remains a little less convinced, finding almost a sort of mechanicity, bordering on self-citationism for example of her extraordinary role in that masterpiece that is "My Love From The Star", (certainly more than in the equally marvellous work done in "Its OK") including the monologue in front of the camera;

Let's be clear, we are talking about one of the best actors in the drama world and not only, but here he seems to play it safe, without pushing the pedal of style in a fully convincing way... However, it must be specified that the chemistry between the two main characters is very much present, especially in the levity episodes where there is often an amused and funny air as in certain old-school screwball comedies (see for example the jealousy scenes, often relying more on looks than words)

As for Park Sung Hoon, I often tell myself that when a character in the story comes to be particularly well hated, it means that his performer has done his job perfectly, and he has; he is an excellent villain, admittedly not particularly original, but the dramatic crescendo is certainly adequate and effective.

Pure gold the cameo of our lawyer Song Joong Ki/Vincenzo Cassano, a real hilarious one as always (Vincenzo! We miss you!), but also the appearance of the unlikely trio of 'Hong Gil-dong Detective Agency' ex-cartoonists, straight from 'My Love From The Star' almost made me cry ('My Love' also quoted with the pen-recorder element...)

The choice of locations is absolutely stunning, starting with Potsdam and the beautiful Sanssouci Palace which, we can bet, will soon see an exponential increase in its tourist flow; it must be said that given the use of specific car brands, a joint venture with Germany seems obvious. There is no need to repeat that Korean landscapes are always extraordinary, thanks also to a dreamlike photographic setting, of great impact, able to glorify sequences such as, for example, the moment of the proposal at sunset with the related ring, pure magic!

The nocturnal pre-finale on the snow-covered landscape is impressive, reminding me of certain asian noir movies of the 1960s (the closing of Truffaut's 'La Sirene du Mississippi' also came to mind), but absolutely stunning and extraordinarily moving the epilogue, truly an unforgettable example of film poem; in that beautiful epigraph there is the whole sense of the tale.

At the end of the voyage, a bit like in a theatre performance, some of the characters wonder what they have witnessed, mentioning different cinematographic genres... I wondered about this myself, reflecting on whether the structure and unfolding of the story could really have been adapted to the most classic of Sageuk, for example... One of the best film noirs of the 1950s, Fritz Lang's 'The Big Heat', would undoubtedly have been a beautiful western, just as Samuel Fuller's '40 Guns' could have been a great female-driven gangster-movie (thanks to the magnificent Barbara Stanwick)...

Heart and mind always at odds make me say that yes, it's true, "Queen Of Tears" is a drama that is not completely focused, quite conventional, with many narrative clichés, several contradictions and the usual unlikely things, perhaps with an eye towards the international and western television markets, but bearing in mind that suspension of disbelief has always been a basic element in following and loving dramas, it is important to be guided by the heart and to be overwhelmed by the extraordinary romanticism of the story, which makes me give it a positive rating of 8/10, probably reviewable on a second view...

*I preferred to keep the term Centone in Italian because it is quite hard to translate; let's say that -helping us with the Internet- a centone is a text composed of a collage of quotes from different authors or operas, joined together to form an original composition. It is often used in a somewhat disrespectful way in the film industry, while from my side it is a simplification to indicate a work full of multiple quotations, references etc....

|| OVERALL ||

After watching the last episode I wanted to give a much lower rating but I felt I wouldn't be doing the cast and crew, also the people behind making the OST justice. This drama was really saved by the phenomenal acting. There are multiple individual scenes that were fantastic and evoked the emotion that it intended, but the plot overall was just suboptimal and a bit of an overkill. During the drama's run, though, I did look forward to the next episode and didn't fast forward too much like I do with other dramas so the drama wasn't bad...it's just a lot of wasted potential. That said…I think overall I liked this drama more than CLOY.

**I recommend this drama to those that like a wide variety of genres but also have high tolerance to and able to overlook plot holes and sometimes absurdity. Watch the drama for the acting and for the romantic comedy scenes. The drama will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions - heartwarming, anger, frustration, sadness, etc. all at random.


|| DETAILS ||

= Story =
*Premise - Should be quite simple really...the story of how a chaebol heiress and a legal director fell in then out of love, then how they will repair their marriage. If focusing on that alone, the drama was great but because there were so many side quests and obstacles that got randomly and unnecessarily added into this central concept it really downgraded the drama.
*Genre - Truly an overkill as it included romance, comedy, action, melodrama, thriller, crime. Multiple genres is not a problem as Crash Landing on You also had that, but as this drama attempted to focus on all of them equally it became too much. For this drama I think it would benefit if it cut down on the thriller and crime aspect and resolve it 1-2 episodes earlier, then focus more on the relationship portion more. The amount of action was adequate and just right though. The rom-com scenes were well written and weaved into the story given the circumstances.
*Main Plot – I liked the way we learnt how the main leads met in that it wasn't given chronologically and we could piece it together ourselves. The romantic comedy scenes were indeed very sweet, cute, and funny. I am a sucker for romantic comedies so I didn't mind and actually enjoyed the clichés - destined to be together since childhood, getting injured and treating each other's wounds, getting drunk and acting cute, getting jealous of each other, in awe of each others' glow up. The melodrama scenes were also well written, especially the two scenes in episode 14...I even shed a tear. However one thing I realized was that I only enjoyed those certain scenes on their own but when looking at the big picture the plot was just so absurd. The premise made it seem like the drama would be more on the realistic side as the couple is married and explores how relationships can be mended. So...why were there so many simultaneous plots going on? Just pick one and focus more on it! The whole cancer situation was a bit much. The whole situation with the antagonists was a bit too much. There are too many plot twists and it just got too ambitious. The writing was sloppy in the swaying between protagonists and antagonists winning. When the writer wanted the antagonists to get their way everything just seemed to go smoothly for them, then the next episode the writer wanted the protagonists to win so all of a sudden they have all this evidence fall onto their laps and everything goes smoothly for them. It didn't feel like a natural progression but instead an omniscient force that keeps flip flopping between the two groups deciding who wins. All in all, if I just focus on the rom-com and melodrama parts i.e. just how they met and fell in love then fall out of love then fall back in love, the plot is great.
*Side Plot – This is the one thing I thought improved from Crash Landing on You. My complaint for CLOY was that I wanted to see more of the main couple and less of the other people from the ensemble cast. QOT had an ensemble cast again but the way they were weaved into the main plot was well done. It didn't take away from the main plot and I didn't find the other characters' stories taking away from the main plot. The side plots were also much better than that of CLOY so I didn't skip much of them as they also helped progress the story.
*Additional features – As with other dramas by this writer, the epilogues....really love them. I even started guessing which part the epilogue would be about. The epilogues are one of the best parts of each episode.
*Ending - Actually I enjoyed watching QOT throughout its run more so than CLOY...but the ending made me question this. There were many speculations on whether it would be a happy or sad ending. I anticipated the direction the ending would head towards and as expected it went there, but didn't expect that it would leave me with such a bitter feeling. CLOY's ending was well executed and it matched the subtle intensity of the love between the two until the end but I really can't say the same about this. I wanted more! They were so lovely together before they fell out of love, the extent of their love was so much stronger and showed more blatantly than CLOY. After the turmoil and rollercoaster the writer put the leads through...put the viewers through...what kind of subtle soft ending is this? At least give us some more lovey dovey scenes before ending like that. I mean they only properly kissed once, what a major letdown. It’s more than okay to reference the scene of them visiting the cemetery during the honeymoon at the final scenes, but give me more rom-com vibes before ending like this...it felt so rushed…I don't know...am I the only one thinking that? How frustrating.

= Cast =
*Acting – Phenomenal acting. I really don't know what to say. Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun carried so hard. The subtle expressions and gestures...just wow. I became a fan of both of them (more so Kim Ji Won) after this. I watched their previous works but I think the acting range they showcased in this drama made me see them in another light. I guess we have the writer to thank for that because with such a crazy plot (really too many twists and turns) the way they portrayed their characters enduring all that was as realistic as they could have possibly made it. Also...honest opinion...news that IU was supposed to play Hong Hae In, I'm almost certain that she could not have done it anywhere near as good as Kim Ji Won. I just had to say it. Supporting cast were all great with special mention to Park Sung Hoon who is really so good at being an antagonist, Kwak Dong Yeon, and Kim Jung Nan. The acting was really what saved this drama and gave it the high ratings.
*Chemistry – The lovey dovey scenes between Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun are just so heart-fluttering and cute. They had great chemistry. Visually actually I think Kim Soo Hyun and Seo Ye Ji matched more but I think personality wise and shipping wise I felt KJW and KSH matched more. They were just too lovely in the pre-wedding scenes and both honeymoon period scenes. Chemistry between the supporting cast and the main characters were also very natural. They all had their own time in the spotlight and I didn't find any of them too overpowering or taking away from the main leads.

= OST =
A great soundtrack with many good songs. Very fitting.


|| A LESSON ABOUT LOYALTY ||

It is extremely rare for a relationship to be harmonious all of the time. It is about enduring the tough times together and staying by each other's side through thick and thin. Sometimes staying together might not mean you will be happier, instead it will just be less painful. So gather all the happy memories whenever you can in your jars and when goings get tough, take them out and reminisce the good days. Tough times will pass and they will pass much easier when surrounded by people you love and that love you.

what happens to the characters after they have already experienced a drama love?

I loved.

It is a new plot, what happens to the characters after they have already experienced a dramatic love?

I liked the villain, he is a very great villain every moment made me hate him more and more with everything he did.

I really liked the story of the little brother, it made my heart shrink and fill with love at the same time.

I liked the comedy they gave Baek Hyun Woo to cope with the fact that he will be widowed, I also liked how Hong Hae In's character grew and she was able to express her feelings with his to stay together.

It was a super fun drama to watch, with a lot of intrigue, it was easy to follow and always have interest in it.

The Reason Why This Drama Is Worth The Hype

The Korean drama that has filled my social media timeline for the past few weeks just ended a few days ago.
Many people feel that this plot gets messy towards the end of the episode and feels like a soap opera. I also read that this drama would not have been helped if it weren't for the great casting.

I half agree and half don't. I feel that the choice of cast is one of the keys to why this drama can be as popular and successful as it is today. Good casting choices are not only in the casting of the main actors, in fact almost all of the cast in this drama managed to convey their characters very well. I give a lot of applause to the casting director of this drama.

Apart from providing very satisfying acting, this drama also provides quite interesting visuals. Throughout the drama, my eyes seemed to be satisfied by the visuals of the actors. The filter used in this drama is also quite good, so my eyes don't get too tired even though the duration of each episode is more than one hour.

Returning to the title of this article, I will explain several reasons why this drama is worth the hype.

1. Have a strong story foundation
From the start, we have been given the main foundation of a very strong story, namely the breakdown of relationships due to poor communication. The conflicts in this drama are many and multi-layered, but in my opinion, what makes the drama still awaited by the audience every week is because of their strong story foundation.

2. Characters with fictional visuals, but given quite realistic personalities
One thing that stands out about this drama from the start is that none of the characters are perfect - only their visuals are perfect. There are no truly 'green' characters in this drama. Each of them has its annoying side. This is an interesting element in my opinion. As someone who likes to write, it's difficult to give weaknesses to my characters. Letting him be hated because of his annoying nature is one of the interesting things.

Both Hae In and Hyun Woo have flaws, and we have been annoyed with these two characters. But that doesn't make us hate or lose sympathy for them. Even the writing of the villain character in this drama is very good and is enough to make him the villain in the Korean drama that I hate the most. But strangely, in the final episode, I sympathized with his character. It's enough to understand even though you can't forgive.

Apart from the great actors and actresses who succeeded in playing these characters, I think the character writing is quite realistic and complete, making me able to sympathize and get to know each character in this drama well.

3. Set in an unusual story
Amid the rise of dramas that are hard to watch, or too light to watch. This drama offers both heavy and light elements. We know that the conflicts in this drama are many and heavy, but somehow the character feels light. Especially when episode eight comes. The tempo of the drama seems to have changed completely, it is still heavy and intense but feels more manageable. I don't know, the author seems to want to give a message,

"Alone will feel very heavy and suffocating, but together it will feel lighter and more liberating."

Amid the rise of "Strong Woman" characters in Korean dramas, I initially thought Hae In would be the same as the other characters. But it didn't, or maybe it ultimately didn't. This is all because Hae In's character development is quite good. We know, that as strong as humans are, we still need other people. And that's what Hae In succeeded in doing. He managed to allow others to help him. We know Hae In is strong, but we know Hae In can be stronger if she is with people she loves and loves her.

4. Many messages are conveyed through this drama
While I was watching this drama, I seemed to see a lot of implied messages that the author wanted to give to the audience. This is rarely shown explicitly but is implied through the development of each character.

This drama ends with a happy ending, but somehow it feels a little sad. Especially when the last scene is covered by an OST sung by Kim Soo Hyun. And it was enough to make me want to cry, whether I was moved or something. But I seemed to have managed to witness human life from beginning to end. It felt like everyone would go through that life.

Indeed, there are still a lot of plot holes in this drama, such as in several scenes in Hyun Woo's hometown which in my opinion don't quite fill the plot and seem boring. Therefore I can only give a rating of 8/10 for this drama.

I think this drama is worth watching and not overrated. Drama writing is not perfect, there are still many other Korean dramas with better plots than this drama. But this drama is worth watching together with your loved ones.

Unnecessary screen time for the villain

Unnecessary screen time for the villain at the end. There is no need for him to run over ML with his car, there is no need for him to kidnapped the FL and there is absolutely no need for him to shoot anyone.

Instead of having those scene, they should have resolve these storyline/plot:
1. How did main lead become so cold to each other? Their baby? How?
2. ML and FL found out that ML save FL when they were kids
3. Queen Family found out that villain killed FL brother -> FL didn't caused her brother's death
4. Why the villain's mother hate Queen family?

As much as the villain actor portrait his character very well. It is a drama that better without a very strong present villain.

The main lead is the reason why I'm still watching this. KJW and KSH have great visual and acting. They also look great together. I am sad that we don't get more FL and ML moments in the final because I definitely wanted to see more.

AM I THE QUEEN OF TEARS???

To say I had been waiting on pins and needles for this to air would be an understatement. I mean our favourite resident alien was starring; the man has an entire portfolio of dramas he SERVEDDDD!!!!
Kim Jiwon was another plus, I've loved all her works. She manages to deliver and then some...

The drama starts off amazing, the story is captivating; the story is new and intriguing. I especially loved that the girl was the chaebol in this instance. Their love was gratifying to witness. Then came the angst...their marriage isn't working...Why? Who tf knows? Misunderstandings, miscommunication and a bunch of awful inlaws...except you Beomja...I freaking love the woman.

I've shed quite a few tears because what do you mean they go through all that and there's still more to come?

Then the beau who wasn't really a beau, from the past who won't take no for answer. The amount of anger this man roused in me! I swear I didn't even hate him this much in The Glory. I know that means he delivered his role perfectly but still...talk about obsessed and sinister.

That being said ....

WHAT I LOVED.
Hong Hae-in
Her outfits...I haven't been fed this well since Seo Yeji's last drama.
Her aura, she was perfect for the role, or the role was perfect for her. You'd see her and know she was in charge.
Her character in general. I don't exactly know how to describe it. Not once did I find her annoying, and that's saying something.

Baek Hyun-Woo
His face.
His character, perfect mix of cute and hot. The tiny smirks when his wife did something bratty or did something that made him happy.
His bros. Having people who'd have your back through everything is common in dramas, but having characters who deserve that unwavering loyalty, pretty rare.
His family, they were close to perfect, not once did I feel like such a family wouldn't be possible in the real world. Opportunists but loyally fierce. Stern but kind, I mean what's not to love.

Character developments.
Hae-in's mom...though I feel like she should have suffered Hae-in's indifference for a little while cause the woman was just plain mean.
In this case, her younger brother, Soo Cheol, the man got a chance to spread his wings and it was beautiful to witness.
Dahye...she was loved so good she changed...a miracle right there.
Grace ...i didn't trust her till the end but she managed to surprise her.
It hurts to admit this but Eun Seong...this man has united drama fans worldwide in the hate. Second leads often manage to garner some wayward fans, and get a few thirsty edits and fan-made spin-offs, but this man...this man got none. That is how much the hate was. He bodied the character so well, I wouldn't trust him if I met him in real life. Though I feel like he deserved far worse than what he got.

The OSTs.
Whoever chose the team to do this, may you have a place in heaven cause this album ate, to put it plainly. The songs brought out all the emotions in given situations perfectly. I'm writing this while the album is on a loop btw. Falling and Love with All My Heart are my absolute favourites, a close second is Kim Soohyun's own OST.

WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE...AT ALL.
Hong Hae-In's fam...esp the grandpa...like how did you get so rich being so stupid. The dad only thought to take the reins in the family when everything went to shit.
How they treat their in-laws...I know it was supposed to show how female counterparts suffer in real life but theirs was on another level.
Them treating Baek Hyun Woo like he shit only to turn around and look for him to save them...pathetic.

How the writing went to the sewers in the last episodes. Why did the man have to spawn everywhere...he's the villain...we get it but come on!!!!!!!!!!!

The hospital staff, I know it's supposed to go with the story but how did they turn their backs on Hae In's situation just like that? They knew the man who was with her before, they communicated with him multiple times. He was the one who reached out to them even but when a new one appears, conveniently when the poor girl has no memories no one bats an eye just cause he threw a few bucks around...

The ending. Not the dying part, but the fact that we only got snippets of their supposed happy life after witnessing their suffering.

Where did all that cash go though?????

ALL IN ALL, THIS WAS A GOOD WATCH. THE CAST DID MOST OF THE WORK BUT THE STORY WAS AMAZING TOO...if you ignore the last chapters.

In conclusion, we the watchers, were the real queen of tears.
