Viewers are captivated by the unbreakable bond between Baek Hyun-woo (played by Kim Soo-hyun) and Hong Hae-in (played by Kim Ji-won) in tvN’s Saturday-Sunday drama “Queen of Tears”. As we take a closer look at the love timeline of the “BaekHong”(Baek Hyun-woo + Hong Hae-in) couple, we can see how their feelings for each other have been growing with each passing moment in their lives.

The bond between Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in has a history stretching back many years. During their childhood, Baek Hyun-woo, who was a young marine at the time, happened to rescue Hong Hae-in from drowning in the sea. However, Baek Hyun-woo was unaware of the child’s name he had saved and Hong Hae-in thought the person who saved her was her late brother. This marked the first fateful meeting between the two, unaware of each other’s identities.

Their second encounter took place in high school, following their first meeting that had left a lasting impression. Baek Hyun-woo, who had bumped into Hong Hae-in on the school playground on his first day at the new school, found himself wandering around with the MP3 player that she had left behind, unaware that she had gone abroad. Despite the fleeting nature of their first encounter, it had made a strong impact on Baek Hyun-woo, who kept it as a treasured memory in his drawer for years to come.

Despite meeting again as interns after a long time, Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in failed to recognize each other as adults. However, Baek Hyun-woo couldn’t help but unconsciously care for Hong Hae-in, while she secretly felt excited about him. Hong Hae-in’s face would light up with affection every time she took the same path just to catch a glimpse of Baek Hyun-woo, causing viewers’ hearts to flutter.

After finally beginning their relationship, Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in spent quality time together at popular date locations, courtesy of Hong Hae-in’s substantial wealth. Unaware of Hong Hae-in’s financial support, Baek Hyun-woo marveled, “It feels like the entire universe is conspiring to help just the two of us.”He then seized the romantic ambiance to sincerely propose, successfully melting Hong Hae-in’s heart.

Despite facing unexpected challenges in their marriage that caused them to consider divorce, Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in’s relationship grew stronger as they faced and overcame these difficulties together. Even after their divorce, Baek Hyun-woo continued to support and protect his wife during times of danger. Similarly, Hong Hae-in showed her love and devotion by standing by her husband and sharing her vulnerabilities with others, moving viewers with their genuine and heartfelt affection.

Baek Hyun-woo made it clear that he still deeply cared for Hong Hae-in when he proposed once more, hoping to remain by her side. Despite her hazy memories, Hong Hae-in reluctantly rejected his proposal. However, she secretly tried on the ring, revealing that their feelings for each other were mutual.

Despite the challenges, Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in are determined to rebuild their everyday lives with the strength of their love and trust for each other. It remains to be seen if they can conquer obstacles and sustain their love while moving forward together.
