Started so well, but then the story got lost...

I loved it so much in the beginning, but then it became a makjang. There were too many cliches and unnecessary plot points that didn't help the story forward. We were promised a second chance romance, but the romance lacked depth when we could have had such an emotional journey by the two great actors playing the main couple.

Also, as a doctor... the medical aspect of the story is ridiculous.

Still, I loved the characters and the transformation of the family. I cried and laughed a lot. This drama will stay dear to my heart, but that just infuriates me more because I feel ROBBED.

It's really does hold its title, Queen of tears.

Queen of tears" nah I would say it is "King of tears" for me , I was randomly searching for enemy to lover K-dramas after watching "My demon" & "Business proposal", then I remember my friend have suggested me this before then I just clicked the play button but omg, who knew it's gonna be that addictive.

When I started the series I thought it's story about just married couple who doesn't go along with each other. I tried skip the series but then when I saw "Hae-in" in the frame , she was really beautiful, no wonder "Hyun-woo" fell for her . I guess she is the reason I stayed to watch the show, but tbh Hae-in really ate her roll she did a great job and so flawless at that.

I don't fully remember, is it in EP 2 or 3....? but, the moment it's started to tear me up , I could not stop crying, I started to get scared of watching this in front of my family, what if I accidentally cried..? If they see me cried.? it's was really going to be a disaster.

*sigh* I hardly remember when the last time I cried, the reason I cried, it was like crying didn't existed for me , why would I even cry ..? I think I never found a reason behind it.

I have never watched any show that have made feel that emotional after Attack on Titan, I've just ended the series and my eyes are still yet to dry..
I have never thought love can be this beautiful, and a Romance show would make me feel that way , I have never liked Romance genre cause it's hangs you around all the time and don't give any reason behind it , but this show changed mind and of course I'm giving it 10/10 .

If you're getting an idea that this is a sad emotional romance then You've been greatly mistaken, cause the happy moments gonna make you tear up the most. And and and the music.... Omg that fit perfectly with every scene, it still now keep playing in my head... I know this post is getting long but I definitely need to say this, "Eun sung" you're literally a piece of shyt , well what can I expect from a son of a b!tch.

*Sigh*Anyway,I wonder where I gonna find this kind of love, is that kind of love do really exist..? That's the question I'm gonna ask myself every night I guess.

I really want to thank you for suggesting me this series, yes you're the only person who suggested me that , Thank You.

*Sigh* The opening music is still playing in my head...

🎶As long as you stay with me ,
Giving you all my heart
Giving you all my love,
As long as you stay with me🎶

Great job by the entire casts, lead actress, etc. Worth watching. Can’t wait for next project by Kim Soo Hyun. Will rewatch this drama.

failed to meet my expectations

dropped because there was ZERO substance and the female lead was just so unlikeable and unrelatable. so much potential that was unrealized in the premise of the show; to depict two people struggling with their marriage in a society that frowns upon divorce could've been incredibly powerful had it been executed properly. such a shame as i adore kim soo hyun, and have been meaning to enjoy a kim ji won drama.

Good solid comedy

Ever since Glory, I stopped watching K drama ... I feel it's getting too graphical and having needless violence, gearing towards abusive relationships. I saw Castaway Diva ... again it was more skewed towards abusive relationships, which took over the drama and made it unwatchable for me.

So I am looking for comedy without the trendy abusive stories. This one seems to have the good acting, the story line, and all the funny jokes. I like it so far after 2 eps. The audience is being surprised with unexpected events. The jokes are not physical jokes so the writers are doing a terrific job here using irony to make me laugh.

Of course, the story is going to be predictable with happy ending because it's a comedy. But the writing makes it entertaining and not too stressful to watch.

Intense Drama with Sharp Insights

Queen of Tears was an emotional rollercoaster that thoroughly captivated me from start to finish. Kim Soo-hyun, starring as the male lead (ML), delivers yet another stellar performance, consistently proving why he's one of the top actors in the industry. His ability to convey deep emotions and bring his character to life is nothing short of remarkable, making every scene he's in a highlight.

The drama itself keeps viewers on the edge of their seats with each episode, thanks to a series of unexpected plot twists that expertly showcase the disparities between different social classes. The attention to detail is impeccable, and the epilogues at the end of each episode add a satisfying depth to the overall storytelling. This drama excels in blending intense drama with critical social commentary, making it a must-watch for those who appreciate intricate narratives and powerful performances.

Queen of Tears fill the audience eyes with tears let it be sad ones or joyful ones

I don't usually write reviews for any drama or movies but this drama really pushed me to write one. I have no words to describe how beautiful this drama is, from the cast to the directors and the writer everyone of them did a fabulous job in doing their roles to make this drama a wonderful masterpiece. The writer once again showed us that she is the queen of writers because one of the main reason i started watching this drama was because of her. Ans the stellar performance by each and every cast member was just so realistic especially Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won portrayed their emotions very well and not to forget the villain Park Sung Hoon the audience really hated his character because of how well he acted to be do that role. The story was a rollercoaster of emotions for all the audience watching it and it is the drama to make everyone who watches it shed tears.

I really wanted to watch it when it came out. Then my favorite writer mentioned the series and how excited she was about it and I couldn't resist. The cast was great, the actors did an amazing job. The overall plot was very, very slick and the plot twists were crazy. For me, it's definitely one of the most beautiful k-dramas that will make you laugh, make you think about life and appreciate things and people around you (and yourself ofc), will make you so angry that you want to destroy the villain with everything possible (which means that the actor did an amazing job too, if you can't even feel the villain, thank you!) and of course, will make you cry. I haven't been able to stop crying. I admit I was shocked a few times because things happened that I absolutely didn't expect and I enjoyed the series even more (it's always better not to know what's going to happen next than to guess correctly :)). So I'm going to continue to recommend this series because it's really worth watching! (Then there are two more episodes after episode 16, he winked)

A tale of love and loss

Korean drama watchers love romance, love which burns as it builds. As the trailer dropped, the drama lovers knew what had been packed for them.

Baek Hyun Woo meets Hong Hae In under complex surroundings. What follows is love, angst, and a profound misunderstanding that engulfs them both with time. The story revolves around the protagonists. Their love meets a rough patch as a tragedy strikes. Caught in a roller coaster of emotions, they find each other drifting away caught in a whirlwind of misunderstanding.

Kim Soo Hyun as Hyun Woo is beautiful. You will love his effervescent slipping into the skin of the sweet little husband. The man who is infamous for sticking with rich heiress has got a beautiful score this time. Ji Won as Hae In shines like a moon in the story. Her dialogue delivery, strides, and hair flipping reminds me of Rachel from The Heirs. The girl surely knows how to build the aura. The chemistry between leads is palpable and smooth. Mixing vulnerability and resilience in equal proportions elevates the whole story to a new level.

The story has been creating buzz for a while. This is because of the way they explore the intricacies of human emotions. Even in his venture, It's Okay to be Not Okay, Soo Hyun talked about depression and multiple perspectives. In this story, the director uses family and complexities to weave a web of emotions as the characters develop. This is life, right?

The cinematographer did a brilliant job... Capturing the poignant dichotomy existing between leads evades through the change of tone. Throughout the series, the ensemble cast gives a stellar performance. Each actor whispers life through the skin of the characters. Glorified sung Hoon is back being icy cold sociopath lover doing extremely good in his job. The arc of characters this man is playing is clearly creating a storm. Alas! He is still not getting the girl again.

With Har In and Hyun Woo palpitating and gallivanting in their gallon, it is difficult to assume how love is going to make it. But the poignant exploration characters are making is surely leaving a never-ending mark.

AMAZING, EMOTIONAL

This was an absolute delight to watch. Congratulations to the writer, what a great storyline. As expected, Kim Soo Hyun was phenomenal in his performance. I now have become a fan of Kim Ji Won, she was outstanding in her role. I was really happy to see Kwak Dong Yeon in this drama. He is a great actor and very handsome. The drama was funny, emotional, and brought tears to my eyes. I could feel the emotions of the drama thru the exceptional performance of the actors. Thank you, Kim Soo Hyun and all of the other actors for the hard work put into this work. The real fans are very appreciative. This is definitely a drama that will be watched & rewatched for years to come.

Great watch for first time, not much rewatch value solely because of the last 2 episodes

It's an amazing drama honestly in every sense!
I won't say the plot is the best, but the acting and execution are beyond perfect. Also, I liked how the story focused on the relationship between characters. Sadly they kinda ruined things by the end (episode 14's ending upto the very last episode) by rushing things and adding unnecessary plot twists for clout.
However, as a whole it's a fun and beautiful melodrama to watch honestly
