From Laughter to Tears!

I think "Queen of Tears" is definitely worth a watch, even though it has a bittersweet ending. Some viewers were disappointed with the last three episodes, but I felt it was a bit rushed, especially towards the end. There were a lot of cliché scenes that didn’t quite fit.

The first half of the story felt pretty realistic, but the second half leaned more towards melodrama, which might be what the audience wanted instead of a romantic comedy. Both main characters have their flaws, leading to a lot of misunderstandings and miscommunications.

The pacing is mostly good, although it slows down a bit in the middle and feels rushed towards the end. The cast is fantastic—Kim Soo Hyun really shows off his acting skills, and Kim Ji Won is surprisingly versatile.

The soundtrack is another highlight, especially "Hold Me Back" by Heize, which really stands out. The chemistry between the lead actors is undeniable; it's hard to picture them with anyone else.

Overall, I’d recommend "Queen of Tears" if you’re in the mood for an emotional drama. There are some unanswered questions, and I really wish they’d shown more about how they lost their baby. I’d love to see a season two or at least a prequel about their office romance. It's definitely worth trying, but I believe it's not going to happen because of how it ended.
