Dream come true pairing with Top-notch acting

When two Korean superstars get paired up, you can really expect a good drama with topnotch acting. I can't still believe that my dream actors to be pair have been paired. Kim Ji won x Kim Soo Hyun is really happening.

Kim Ji Won really fits the role as Hong Hae In, she's scary yet charming. Kim Soo Hyun's Baek Hyun Woo is cute and adorable.

If you want a Kdrama with a Top-notch acting, this is for you. Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun never failed us. They always amaze us with their good performances.

-1000000/10 .......If i could give it

I am Already expecting Some OVERLY supportive people, sucking up for drama
and you all know i don't give a F about you, and this is my reviews so if you have opinion then write your own reviews then coming telling me your bullshit.....

https://www.koreaboo.com/stories/uncanny-similarities-queen-tears-bears-real-life-heiress-story/
article come after my review.

In 1999, she (Lee Bo Jin) married Im Woo-jae, known in the South Korean press as "Mr. Cinderella" because of his humble background, as an "employee of a security service affiliate of Samsung Group". They separated in 2012, and have one son together.

this drama look to much favoring Male lead
its like IM WOO JAE paid for this whole drama with all his received Alimony,
trying to make FL and ML victim while in real life
Im woo jae the real idiotic monster used to beat his pregnant wife
just after watching first episode this look like a PR Stunt of IM WOO JAE

Real IM woo Jae isn't handsome or smart but, UGLY AND FOOL
even in drama ML is called smart so many time but he act like fool every time,
he believe whatever unknow people tell him about his own wife, Stop calling your self smart

ML why don't you just die if your suffer after marrying most PRETTY and rich woman on Korean peninsula ?

Just DIE ML, for humanity sake jump in HAN River, and do not try to swim
why was he acting like a cry baby give us a reason that can justify him

Second ep and Low life ML is feeling happy about his wife's upcoming death, now he put down his victim mask and his evil ugly truth is showing
i was thinking of watching this but after seeing that Monster smile, yes that is what EVIL IM WOO JAE was in real life
all he care about was getting some money from his wife's corpse. Great work ml, should have Casted an ugly man
what kind of inhuman man is ML, someone he claim to love just 3 year ago, is about to die and selfish low life think he is going to be free, then he should be one die,
WE NEED RAMSAY BOLTEN here to flay this man Alive
there is no redemption arc for this if they make them end up together after he celebrated her death that's just worst
ML if your not materialistic then what you think your are Parasite ?
Rename this drama to Parasite 2.O
there love was years ago for ML, just 3 years, in those 3 year his daddy changed 10 of his mothers
THIS ML is SO called Smart even illiterate people are far more smart then this Parasite idiot.
SNU should talk action against this people for mention that a Idiot like ML studied at that university.
hearing that Idiots like him are Alumni of SNU, seriously degreed and defame SNU
it like saying all Idiots in Korea come from SNU, Seoul Nation University

SNU SNU" is a fictional term used in the show to refer to a form of sexual intercourse. " Death by SNU SNU" humorously implies that the act of having sex with the Amazonian women is so intense and physically demanding that it could potentially result in the death of the male,
how ML can live with himself, he and his ugly family is full of parasites, ungrateful
Dropping after second episode which made ML irredeemable for me, he can not be redeem even

First Impressions

Beautiful wedding scene in the 1st episode? I couldn’t be happier!

As a romcom to look forward to this year, QoT offers a fresh perspective on KDrama's typical happy endings and gender roles.

Starring Kim Soo Hyun (It’s Okay to Not be Okay) as a lawyer from an ordinary family, he falls for a troublemaker intern played by Kim Ji Won (My Liberation Notes), who turns out to be an heiress at their workplace: Queens Department Store.

Their marriage, despite its promising start, quickly becomes complicated after three years. He struggles with her wealthy family and can’t stand his wife anymore, while she unexpectedly deals with a terminal illness, adding a melodrama twist to the husband who is seeking a divorce. Will we have a happy ending here?

I appreciate the realistic portrayal of after-married life in this drama. It challenges the idea of a fairy tale ending! I also love the engaging storytelling perspective; it prevents us from taking sides because both characters play a role in this marriage that has lost its sparks.

Excited to see more stories from the second lead couple played by Kwak Dong Yeon and Lee Joo Bin, as well as the hidden intentions of the second male lead, portrayed by Park Sung Hoon.

With a talented writer behind hits like Crash Landing on You and My Love from the Star, this series perfectly blends romance and humor, featuring lot of stellar casts, making it a must-watch for KDrama enthusiasts like you and me~

Might be better if cast talent is used correctly

This show didn't quite grab my attention. The actors did a good job, but the story and direction didn't impress me. I felt disappointed because the female lead's strength wasn't highlighted much, and the male lead didn't have much excitement. After just one episode, I felt like not to continue watching but anyway i will complete it. If you're a big fan of the cast, you might still enjoy it, but for me the drama is just ok for one time watch and not that admirable while others may find it intresting. I hope the plot gets better in next episodes..

Rewatch Value: on loop

Let me start by saying that the main leads are the life of this drama. Solid performance and well acted characters.
How do you surpass the success of a recent Kim Soo Hyun drama? Easy. Make and even more successful one!
No kidding Soo Hyun, always delivers + the remarkable Kim Ji won = Perfect chemistry!
Chemistry is chemistry-ing that we are all anticipating them to be the next real life couple.

This drama also leaves very great lesson about the complex of marriage life. That love isn't always present and perfect. There would be always be hardship but communication is the key to a better relationship.

Side note: The plot could have been better if the storyline was as original as they want it to be but let's be real here. We've all seen this. Surely, this isn't the first time we see a character suffering from illness. Chaebol family who gets dragged out of their company and wealth and a mother-son tandem which is doing all this revenge. God knows for who? BUT the main characters is the one hard-carrying the whole drama to be very honest. Also, it's just me being to salty because why they tagged this drama rom-com when all we doo all week is cry? I mean all of the QOT nations we share the same tears. Lol

Anyways, aside from that I enjoy watching this so much that I will be rewatching until I get sick of it. Lol

Tears and Frustration 1000/10

Yes, I too cried but I think I cursed and screamed more! If I could reach into my TV to strangle a few, I most definitely would have. I LOVED every minute of this series and would recommend to anyone and everyone. Grab a box of tissues and a few soft toys to aim at the TV. Something that wont break the screen 🙈 I can see why Kim Soo-hyun is the highest paid actor. He is so worth it but Park Sung-hoon deserves an award or ten. Credit to the writers for all of the plot twist. They kept us guessing (wrong, most of the time). Definitely watching this again.

It's been awhile...

Just like my headline suggests, it really has been awhile since we had such a solid kdrama in years!! I don't even remember the last time I felt so emotionally INVESTED and obsessed with a Kdrama. Sis checks twitter religiously every single day and hour for more updates lmao. I can't wait for it to end so I can finally concentrate at work HAHAHA TT but at the same time I aM super sad that its ending because when will we ever see ksh on screen again? in 3 YEARS? dude serves us a 3 course meal and then disappear like its nothing making us survive on crumbs after.

wow.. where do I start, this drama is like a breath of fresh air, it has everything! The plot itself is intriguing, literally had the whole world coming up with theories, we had doctors, lawyers, accountants all coming together to discuss the plot HAH. I am RUNNING AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO CAME UP with the theory that hyunwoo dies at the end of this show. LIKE HELLO? nO. GET AWAY from Me.

anywho, I love how this drama brought all of us together!! This ride has been nothing but an EXPLOSIVE TREAT. The cast had already warned us during the interview that this show will have plot twist over twist over twist + case on case on case. They weren't lying when they said ep 5 was only the beginning because everything that came after that was just HELL. Had us ugly crying every ep frs. I was shocked to find out that each ep is about 1.5h long cause it doesn't even feel that long!!! also bc every ep is alluring.

The storyline to some may be mediocre, but its the storytelling that is enticing. The plot shines the harsh truth of how life after marriage would be, and in this case it may not always be a happily ever after. Miscommunications, assumptions, built up frustrations and unresolved hurts will always affect the relationship, afterall it takes two hands to clap in a rs/marriage. I like how they show the state of the contrast difference between the Hong and Baek family and how its in Baek's family that hae in feels comfortable about letting her guard down and learning to receive love. And I really love how clear baekhong's love is shown in this drama - to be loved is to be understood and known.

The ways the actors go above and beyond to make their characters come to life. Ksh and Kjw served INSANE chemistry both on screen and off screen, even I can't help but to ship them irl TT. (secretly wishing for them to pull a BinJin) The acting, the adlibs, the constant strive to do better in delivering lines and expressing emotions shows dedication to their craft. Man literally proved us once again why he is the king of ratings and one of the highest paying actor in sk! Both kjw and ksh delivered such a stellar performance, and ofc with the other casts as well, special mention to park sung hoon as eun seong cause man acted so well it made me wna PUNCH him every single time he comes on. He needs Jeon Jae Joon to teach him a lesson HAH.

As a fan of both of the main leads, I have been truly blessed by this series. And sending my heartfelt congratulations for everyone that made QOT come alive, yall truly deserved the recognition for all that hard work!! It really is a bittersweet feeling knowing that we're heading towards the finale of this drama, part of me is sad because this is the end of an amazing story, but also so happy for all the recognition and support they are all getting. I already felt the post drama syndrome kicking in at ep 14... ahha, this feeling is smth i've never felt for in such a long time. Thank you QOT, for once again reigniting my love for dramas. It really has been a traumatic ride HAHAH kdrama? no.. ktrauma.

Lovin' It !!

Being a Big fan of Kim Soo Hyun, I’m thrilled to witness his return to the screen after a three-year hiatus. His performance up to Episode 2 has been nothing short of spectacular, capturing the essence of his character with finesse. Kim Ji Won, though not someone I follow closely, has also delivered a commendable performance. Her roles in ‘Crash Landing on You’ and ‘Descendants of the Sun’ were my only encounters with her work, but in this drama, she’s truly doing a good job.

The narrative has been engaging thus far, and I’m optimistic that it will maintain its momentum without resorting to unnecessary fillers. I’m eagerly anticipating how the plot will unfold and have high hopes for the drama’s continued success. It’s a story that has captured my heart, and I can’t wait to see where it takes us.
