Queen of Tears

One of the best kdrama in 2024

I don’t know even when to start about this show wow wow wow. It has surpassed all of my expectations and more this is one of the best kdramas out there and I see why it has surpassed my other favorite show crash landing on you.

Queens of tears is just at show it’s so wholesome and raw and really. It showed how we fall in love and how lack of communication and misunderstandings can ruin something so beautiful. I have never cried like I have with this show episode after episode until the end but you know what it was worth it cause the show was just that beautiful and more.

I really like the actress that played Hong Hae In she was the perfect choice for this role she killed it and I’m so glad I got to see her again cause I loved her in the Heirs she played Rachel so good. When I saw her play this role in Queen of tears it was amazing she deserves all the recognition and respect cause she did a spectacular job at this role.

The love story of Baek Hyun Woo and Hong Hae In was amazing to watch the ups and downs of their relationship and more was a great show but I can’t for Yoon Eun Sung wow I really don’t like him and what he did in the show but I will say Park Sung Hoon really played that role well cause we didn’t like his character at all hahah he deserves an award for best supporting actor cause he really played it well the villain.

Overall I can say this Queen Of Tears is a must watch it and yes it’s worth all the hype that it is getting cause it’s that good and it’s the best drama and waiting for the special 2 episodes!!!

Just Something Else...

I already miss this show soooo much after finishing it 3 hours ago... i literally loved EVERYTHING...from the cast and the music ,to the story and the intrigue. My heart fluttered from the family time , it ached from crying , it twinkled from the chemistry and it stopped from the thriller. I loved everyone's acting, especially Kim Soo Hyun's ,Kim Ji Won's, Park Sung Hoon's,Lee Mi Sook's, Kim Jung Nan's, Kim Joo Ryung's, Kim Gab Soo's, Na Young Hee's, Kwak Dong Yeon's ,Jeon Bae Soo's, Hwang Young Hee's, Lee Joo Bin's... Bruh,did i LITERALLY write everyone here???I was thinking of writing a few but i couldn't stop writing the actors' names. The songs Love You With All My Heart and The Reasons Of My Smiles were reallyyy good especially LYWAMH. But wait...i forgot to describe KSH, KJW, LMS, and KJN's actings : KSH was amazing,i am speechless . He could cry at any moment and he portrayed his character so well. KJW was amazing too,she could also cry whenever she wanted +she was so like IU's character in Hotel Del Luna, a seemingly emotionless person,with a broken heart of gold,and she played that character PERFECTLY ,and she was GORGEOUS ! I AM LEFT SPEECHLESS FOR LMS...She was PERFECT AND PHENOMENAL...She scared me sooo much ,because of how good she portrayed her role. Finally, KJN, was Just as good as the three i mentioned( i don't have anymore adjectives to use on her lol),she just ROCKED it though. She played a caring and loving character who wanted her entire family to reunite and reconcile and she loved them with all her heart. Just thanks,KJN for your acting...Of course, the cinematography ,writing were so good .Thank you so much Park Ji Eun for a new drama that enlightened us!!!

What an emotional ride!

This drama sets a perfect example and raises the bar so high. It's crazy how this drama was full of clichés but executed them perfectly. I didn't even realize each episode was a whole 1 hour and 30 minutes long—basically a whole movie each time. It made me realize I could get that emotional over just a drama; every little conversation they had made me tear up. I could sympathize with every character in this drama, whether they were evil or good. All the characters were well-developed, and it was hard to hate even the evil ones like Eun Seong, I couldn't help but feel sorry for him—it's not his fault that he was raised that way. I loved how they portrayed the imperfect but perfect love stories between all the characters, especially our main ones, their love was tested over and over.

This drama is so well-made that I could watch it over and over and never get tired of it. I could write a whole essay detailing how every little thing about this drama was well-made, but I'll leave that for you all to experience firsthand!

Masterpiece!

First of all! if you wanna start this drama, ignore the comments and review! just go in and find out if u like it or not!


Now finaly done with this drama and i give it a 9 because of the unnecessary plot at eps 15/16. they should have gave us at least a full eps 16 on how the ML and FL gonna rebuild and make new memory! they rushed it a bit in my opinion but at least we got a pretty final ending to Hae In and Baek Hyun!

Overal a very good drama and i can place this in my top 5! For some reason i can relate to Baek Hyun due to my own relationship. The fact that you can go to such lengt for your person made me fall in love with his character! But dam they made my boy cry a lot.

I hope that everyone that watch this drama can have his/her own opinion and don’t read to much into reviews because if someone doesn’t like this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t!

One of the top dramas of 2024. Very special to me and I will rewatch it for decades to come!

**SPOILERS AT THE END OF REVIEW**

First I have to say that this drama helped me a lot personally. It's funny to me that the last episode dropped on April 28th, my 30th birthday. In one scene, Hae-in says something along the lines of "what's so wrong with aging, it's a blessing. It's a beautiful thing in life," in response to being told that Hercyna only wants employees under 27 years old to sell their products. Hae-in's reaction to life after being told she has cancer was written beautifully. It's the classic story of having a wakeup call after being told you don't have long to live. I've never had a terminal illness but as that 30th number was approaching me, I started to panic because I wasn't were I thought I would be in life. This drama made me realize how foolish I was and how I should be thankful that I'm living a healthy life. This show was made at the perfect time for me and I'm forever thankful <3

NOW as for the show, arguably some of the best acting, if not the best I've seen of any show out there (and I'm including Game of Thrones when I say this). Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won have set the gold standard in acting, so much so that it's actually inspiring. They made it so easy to feel how the characters felt. I also can't forget Kwak Dong-yeon. His bike scenes were all so special

Shout out to the villains, especially Park Sung-hoon as Yoon Eun-seong. The acting from him and writing of the character were exceptional. He portrays someone desperate for love perfectly

The soundtrack is one of the best I've heard and the visuals were amazing, especially the shots in Germany. The Germany scenes alone are enough to rewatch, especially the big kiss, which is by far the most genuine and passionate kiss I've seen in any movies or shows

No plot holes to my knowledge, just some things that could've been expanded on

**SPOILERS**

Now even though the writing was great overall, it seemed to have gotten lazy and too tropy towards the end. It was very predictable and everyone could see Hyun-woo being run over from miles away. Made me roll my eyes when I saw him across the busy street from Hae-in and again when he got run over

Also:
- Hae-in's journal being fine thanks to the rain was lazy
- No one even cared that Eun-seong threatened Hae-in, the people around him went about business as usual
- Hae-in's side effects seemingly stopped after some episodes to make more room in each episode. Not the most realistic thing lol
- That car hit on Hyun-woo was brutal. More surprising he survived that than the bullet in his upper back
- Wish to have seen Hyun-woo's reaction to finding out he saved Hae-in from drowning as kids
- Hae-in seeing old Hyun-woo in mourning as a ghost when on their honeymoon, while beautiful foreshadowing, is out of place for a non-fantasy show since modern Hyun-woo couldn't see him

The ending was perfect. It's sad to see that Hae-in dies at an old age before Hyun-woo but it's perfect since she told him before the surgery to mourn her for four seasons and then forget about her and live his life. I interpret it as when he got to the lavender field to mourn her there, he was about dead as well from the emotion and then died shortly after to be with Hae-in once again <3

In summary, the show was very worth the watch and I hope it teaches others lessons like it did me. I will rewatch this one for decades to come and will always think about it because of those lessons leading up to my 30th birthday <3 Will be rewatching with my sister very soon!

Embracing Makjang

Yes, it might be overhyped and not everyone will like this type of storyline plot. When diving into this drama, don't take it too seriously. I haven't been hooked on a show since Goblin.

Despite some reservations about the ending, I found it ultimately satisfying and realistic. This show delves into a variety of themes, including romance, raw emotions, and the complexities of relationships, all portrayed with a sense of authenticity. The character development throughout the series is particularly noteworthy, showcasing the willingness of the characters to reconcile, rebuild, and communicate. The importance of apologies, declarations of love, and the ability to harbor deep feelings of resentment while still loving someone are all depicted poignantly. Additionally, the original soundtrack brings the emotional depth of the show to a new level.

The dynamic within the Hong family undergoes a significant transformation, transitioning from a state of abundance to one of scarcity, only to find solace and support within the humble Baek family. The portrayal of relationships between parents and children, husbands and wives, and siblings underscores the idea that our lives are shaped not only by our individual actions but also by the connections we form with those around us. The show beautifully illustrates how the people in our lives will grieve and mourn our losses because of the love they bear for us.

Moreover, the cast did a fantastic job portraying each of their characters, including the villains, showcasing their talents and adding depth to the narrative. The chemistry between the main leads... makes most of us who love the show more delulu than SML.

Overwhelmingly good

There is only one word that can describe it: overwhelming.
I have only been twice overwhelmed by tears to the point of suffocation by Korean dramas, the first time was not a good one as it was too cruel, however..
This drama is on a new level, i have never expirienced something so amazing on a screen before, i mean i knew this screen writer was very good but i have no idea how she manages to outdo herself every time..
any way, this was the best drama i have ever expirienced hands down, and aside from a few overly dramatic scenes that are borderline sci-fi, this was a perfectly flawless K-drama that might be a once in a lifetime expirience.

Absolutely mindblowing acting

Loved, loved LOVEDDD! I normally don't leave reviews but I had to for this masterpiece. Every episode made me laugh and every episode made me cry. From the story line to the acting everything was amazing. I didn't know which plot twist would hit me next, the changes in micro-expressions of the actors drew me in. I felt like I was there with them, feeling what they felt.. When I though there would be cliche misunderstanding tropes, they proved me wrong time and time again. The resilience and trust the characters had in each other was mind blowing. I would rewatch this just for the heartwarming and cute moments but the ones that made me cry were the cherry on top. The build up to the ending was soo good. I did not expect the outcome of the villains to be like that but some things were a tad bit unrealistic which is okay because who doesn't love the protagonist halo. All in all 10/10. Its a MUST watch.

THE BEST DRAMA OF 2024

Kim Hee Won and Park Ji Eun have done it again; they have brought the best K-drama of the year so far. So, let's break it down to see why I consider it the best K-drama of 2024.

THE STORY:
When this drama was announced, it had an interesting premise, but not enough to catch my attention. I admit that what initially drew me to watch this series was the cast, as the story seemed somewhat cliché but intriguing enough to start. AND I COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG. The way they've handled this story is simply masterful; they've turned what seemed like a cliché plot into an award-worthy tale. First off, they've taken all the clichés and turned them on their heads. In this drama, it's the female lead who always maintains composure, seemingly not showing much emotion until later on. Conversely, the male lead is the one who cries the most, who expresses his feelings the most, and who appears most sensitive, and that's something I've loved. It's true that this story may not appeal to everyone, and coupled with the length of its episodes, it might become somewhat tedious for some people, but I highly recommend it.

CHARACTERS AND COUPLES:
Let's start by discussing the main couple. I've read in some places that they didn't have much chemistry, but for me, it's been quite the opposite. In every scene, you can feel the tension and the love they have for each other but are unable to express. I think both protagonists are well-developed, with interesting backgrounds that will make more sense as the series progresses. The secondary couples in this series are among the best; the way their relationships progress, their performances, and the way they express emotions make the series even better. And lastly, the villain; few K-drama villains have managed to infuriate me as much as the one in this series. Seriously, you're going to be stressed out and you're going to suffer watching what this villain does.

OST:
One of the best OSTs I've heard within the world of K-dramas. I've seen many dramas, and few OSTs are as good as those of this series. They even make me want to buy the physical edition. Nothing more to add, 10/10.

CINEMATOGRAPHY:
This drama is beautifully directed. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this is the case in this series. It has incredibly beautiful scenes, with a color palette that changes throughout the series depending on the situation our protagonists find themselves in.

CONCLUSION:
I would recommend this series to anyone looking for a drama to shed tears, to be moved alongside the characters, and to enjoy it for a few days without binge-watching it since the episodes are long.

If you've made it this far, thank you very much for reading, and I hope you can enjoy this series as much as I did.
