Amidst this chaos, the Hong family is chased out of their home due to a clever scheme by one of their own, leading the estranged couple to find their way back to each other.
Queen of Tears Episodes 9 and 10 Review
Kim Ji Won begins to live in Kim Soo Hyun’s house
In the recent episodes 9 and 10, the drama takes an exciting turn. The couple reunites in Hyunwoo’s hometown, Yongduri, leading to a series of surprising and comical events. The arrival of the chaebol Hong family in Hyunwoo’s humble abode, where ‘water from the Alps’ is not a common sight, adds to the comic relief of the show.
Park Sung Hoon threatens Kim Ji Won
However, the drama intensifies when Yoon Eunsung (Park Sung Hoon), realizing his mother’s intentions to chase out the entire Hong family, starts worrying for his childhood crush, Haein. His desperation and the revelation of Haein’s terminal illness lead him to a new goal – to marry Haein. His audacious performance is a testament to why Park Sung Hoon is perfect for this role.
Lawyer, legal advisor, caring husband and also skilled boxer, Kim Soo Hyun’s run as Baek Hyunwoo in the drama keeps on getting more fabulous with each episode. An action sequence reveals his hidden boxing talents and we wonder how long did it take for the actor to nail the choreography. After a fight to crack down on fraudsters, a bruised-up Baek Hyunwoo turns up much to Hong Haein’s worry and is taken care of.
In a drunken state, Baek Hyunwoo sheds tears about the sorrowful nature of his situation when even after caring a lot for his wife, he’s unable to display it directly to her. These are the exact tears which we assume caused the writer to coin the K-drama’s name. Soon a heartbreaking love confession follows as unbeknownst to Baek Hyunwoo, Hong Haein listens to his drunken rambling in yet another well-executed scene.
Kim Ji Won lashes out
On the other hand, Haein, on the verge of rejoining Yoon Eunsung, fights with her ex-husband and seems to be choosing her own future instead of the welfare of the family. But just when it seems like the tide may be turning in favor of the antagonist, Haein pulls a thrilling return. She publicly announces Eunsung’s threats and turns the media against him, using the revelation of her impending death due to a terminal illness as her biggest weapon.
As “Queen of Tears” progresses further and continues to break viewership rating records, there are a lot of expectations and possible outcomes that have kept the viewers hooked to the rom-com. With possibly more tears to follow and a lot more romance awaited, Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won’s love story is turning out to be a fan favorite. The drama is available to watch on tvN and Netflix.
