“One day, when only one of us is left, the other one can come and meet them. Then it won’t be scary at all. Because we’ll be together.” – Hong Hae-in and Baek Hyun Woo.
Let me start with the most recent hit K-drama that broke so many records – ‘Queen of Tears’ starring Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-Won. Honestly, it was my first K-drama where I was on time with each episode and eagerly awaited the next episode. Let’s start with the main leads so they are shown as a married couple and I love the chemistry between Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-Won. It was vital that the lead couple should look like husband and wife and the casting of the main leads was perfect they really gave that vibe which for me was important.
Now on to the acting if you are a follower of K-drama you know Kim Ji-won as Rachel Yoo in The Heirs and Kim Soo-Hyun is one of the highest-paid actors which means acting was expected to be top-notch. And as expected the acting was top-notch. No one can play a cold character like Kim Ji-Won. The drama genre is said to be rom-com, but nothing in the drama screams rom-com. In every episode, there is so much crying by the leads. There is a lack of communication and through that misunderstanding arises but I loved that they did not drag it out long.
So from the start, the relationship between the couple is not good and I loved that they didn’t start on a happy point but went directly with the problem and I loved the flashbacks. It started with the couple and then both families got involved so the flow was amazing.
After the fifth episode, Baek Hyun Woo was a big green flag for the way he was always there for his wife and the love that was shown hidden, the comeback of it was mind-blowing. K-dramas have never portrayed “Man in Love” the way they portrayed Baek Hyun Woo. He has cried every single episode and prayed for his wife. What a green flag. Hong Hae-in, the woman she is. No woman has ever loved a man like Hong Hae-in loved Baek Hyun Woo as he was her first and only love.
The plot was amazing, there was thriller, tension, chemistry, family bonding, and the way everyone got a happy ending. I loved the ending it was very realistic and the writer is a genius way in the end everything that was happening from the first episode made sense. The drama is realistic so there is not much romance but many crying scenes and in the end, it’s Audience of Tears not Queen of Tears.
Now OST, I loved it. It was sung by Crush – Love With All My Heart. It is so soothing and does not overpower the scenes.
My Rating: 9/10.
Total Episodes: 16
My Favorite Episodes: 8 and 15
Genres: Romance, Romantic comedy, and Comedy. (The genres can be deceiving)
