Queen of Tears captivates with its stellar cast, who deliver strong performances throughout the show. The series boasts a visually appealing aesthetic, with designed outfits and stylish sets. However, the narrative falters in the later episodes. It leans heavily on familiar k-drama, and the plot feels drawn-out, making it predictable with cliché injured/ coma scenes. I skipped scenes in the last few episodes.
While the show aspires to be a tearjerker, it doesn't quite have the same emotional response compared to dramas like "It's Okay to Not Be Okay" or "Crash Landing on You." These dramas deliver a more compelling emotional journey, with a perfect blend of humor (CLOY specifically) and heartfelt moments.
I believe the hype of the show is more because of the writer and popularity of Kim Soo-Hyun. In the end, I will again mention that the acting of all the characters were marvelous.
