Airing on tvN from March 9 to April 28, 2024, and available for streaming on TVING and Netflix in selected regions, this drama has not only captured hearts but also shattered viewership records.

The narrative centers on Hong Hae-in, a third-generation chaebol heiress, and Baek Hyun-woo, a lawyer from a rural background. The series delves into their complex relationship, highlighting the challenges and rekindling of their love after three years of marriage. This emotional rollercoaster is set against the backdrop of the Queens Group's corporate world and the humble rural village of Yongdu-ri.

Cast: The cast of "Queen of Tears" brings the story to life with their compelling performances:

Kim Soo-hyun as Baek Hyun-woo, a lawyer and Hae-in's devoted husband.

Kim Ji-won as Hong Hae-in, the ambitious CEO of Queens Department Store.

Park Sung-hoon as Yoon Eun-sung, a savvy investor and Hae-in's university acquaintance.

Kwak Dong-yeon as Hong Soo-cheol, Hae-in's younger brother and CEO of Queens Mart.

Lee Joo-bin as Cheon Da-hye, Soo-cheol's wife.

Supporting roles feature a robust ensemble, including Kim Kap-soo, Lee Mi-sook, and Jung Jin-young, enhancing the series' depth with their stellar portrayals of Hae-in's and Hyun-woo's families.

Park Ji-eun, after the monumental success of "Crash Landing on You," returns with a gripping storyline in "Queen of Tears." The series, co-produced by Studio Dragon, Culture Depot, and Showrunners, underwent meticulous preparation. The first script reading was conducted in March 2023, and filming spanned several months, capturing the scenic beauty of South Korea and Germany. With a hefty budget of ₩56 billion (US$48.95 million), the production quality is top-notch, boasting exquisite cinematography and elaborate sets.

The original soundtrack, curated by music director Nam Hye-seung, is a melodic journey that complements the series' emotional tone. Featuring artists like BSS, 10cm, Heize, and Crush, the OST has struck a chord with fans. Notably, Kim Soo-hyun lends his voice for the first time in a decade, adding a personal touch to the series' musical landscape.

"Queen of Tears" has been a ratings juggernaut, achieving a nationwide rating of 24.850% for its finale, making it the highest-rated series in tvN's history and the third highest-rated series in Korean cable television. Critics and audiences alike have lauded the series for its engaging storyline and stellar performances. Forbes highlighted its unique approach of starting with "happily ever after" and then exploring the complexities of maintaining it. NME's Tanu I. Raj praised it as a "whirlwind office romance" with a comic undertone, awarding it 3 out of 5 stars.

The series' global appeal is evident from its performance on Netflix's Global Top 10 TV (Non-English) category, where it ranked seventh shortly after release. With 373.2 million hours watched over its broadcast run, "Queen of Tears" has left an indelible mark on viewers worldwide.

"Queen of Tears" is a masterful blend of romance, drama, and corporate intrigue, underscored by exceptional performances and a captivating soundtrack. It stands as a testament to the creative prowess of its makers and the enduring appeal of K-dramas on a global stage. Whether you're a long-time fan of Korean dramas or a newcomer, "Queen of Tears" is a must-watch that promises to take you on an unforgettable emotional journey.

Honest comment:

For me when I watch it I know it will be a success since the chosen cast for the series is one of the great actors and actresses they done their part amazing and it touch people's hearts and for me some parts are predictable but it is still a masterpiece a story of people in a marriage it is so relatable to others who are married and they capture all the married people and the teens imagination of having a great husband for them in the future. Story is great I love it and it is worth to watch all of it was a mixed emotions and I can't spoil it so watch it!!

Last year I was so lazy and end up not doing the award show but I mention my best drama though..this year I'm a bit diligent coz not many drama I watch so it's easy to post😅

Best Healing Drama 2023

See u in My 19th Life (TVN)

Quite healing as I still tears up remembering how shin hye sun said seo ha name.

It's also webtoon based. The incarnation story and how she remember every life really touched me.

Again TVN likes to ending in cliche way.

Best Mother and Daughter/ Police Drama 2023

Not Others ( ENA,Gennie TV,TVING)

At first I attracted coz there park sung Hoon and sooyoung..but the drama really attracted me to watch till finish.

Paramount+ Boosts Korean Content Slate With Original Dramas

Paramount+ announced that they will boost the Korean content slate with original content including ‘A Bloody Lucky Day’ and ‘Queen Woo’ after the Korean series ‘Yonder’ became the most-watched international series in the US this year. The two original series will be available worldwide and are developed by Paramount+ and the Korean streaming service TVING. Paramount+ launched its Asian market only last year through its partnership with Korea. This is Paramount’s global partnership with the major Korean entertainment company CJ ENM. Netflix was the first company to produce original Korean content back in 2019. Over time, Korean content has grown rapidly, now being carried on Amazon Prime, Disney+, Hulu, and Apple TV. 

This news relates to the video streaming industry in that it discusses how the video streaming industry is becoming more global. This news portrays how the globalization of media and how the video streaming industry can bring the world together through its content and working with companies across the globe. 

These plans of boosting more Korean content followed after Paramount+’s Korean original series Bargain won best screenplay in the Canneseries Awards Ceremony in France. This series will go live this summer. The senior VP and head of streaming and regional lead for Asia in Paramount Catherine Park commented, “We are incredibly proud of our Korean content that is finally taking the global stage engaging viewers and fans on Paramount+ and beyond ''. Through these collaborations, TVING hopes to compete both domestically and abroad. Chief Content Officer Hye-Jung Hwang pointed out that they will “continue to expand the global competitiveness of K-content with well-made original series that feature a large scale and a unique worldview”. Through this, Korean entertainment companies and Paramount Global hope to bring captivating narratives and performances that “transcend borders”. (Word Count: 294)
