The love story of Hong Hae-in (played by Kim Ji-won), a third-generation chaebol of Queens Group, and Baek Hyun-woo (played by Kim Soo-hyun), a lawyer from a small village, is depicted in tvN’s weekend drama “Queen of Tears”. The drama follows the couple, who have been married for three years, as they overcome a tumultuous crisis and rediscover their love for each other.

“The drama “Queen of Tears”premiered on March 9 with a rating of 5.9% and, by its 12th episode on April 14th, had reached a remarkable 20.7%. Written by Park Ji-eun, this work is on track to surpass tvN’s highest rating record faster than her previous hit drama, “Crash Landing on You.”

The success of “Queen of Tears”can be attributed to a number of factors. One of them is the outstanding performance of Kim Soo-hyun as Baek Hyun-woo, who has managed to evoke both laughter and tears from the audience. Additionally, his heart-wrenching portrayal of his character’s love for Hong Hae-in has captured the hearts of many female viewers. Furthermore, Kim Ji-won has also gained significant attention and acclaim for her portrayal of Hong Hae-in in the drama.

This has caused viewers to take notice of the past projects of both Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won. Additionally, the May 2017 airing of KBS 2TV’s “Fight for My Way,”starring Kim Ji-won, Park Seo-joon, Ahn Jae-hong, and Song Ha-yoon, garnered much attention for its depiction of young love, which is once again capturing the interest of audiences seven years later.

This is due to the connections between the characters in Kim Ji-won’s acting career. In “Fight for My Way,”actor Jeon Bae-soo played Choi Cheon-gap, who is Kim Ji-won’s father. In “Queen of Tears,”he portrays Baek Du-gwan, the father of Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in’s father-in-law.
