Not only did it surpass Crash Landing on You to become the drama with the highest viewership rating in tvN history, The Queen of Tears also officially surpassed JTBC’s Sky Castle to take the top 3 spot on the list.

One of the reasons why Queen of Tears has such impressive ratings is the perfect pairing of the main actors Kim Soo Hyun – Kim Ji Won.

In the last episode of Queen of Tears, the conflicts of the film are resolved when mother and daughter Eun Sung, one is imprisoned, the other loses his life after too many crimes they committed.

Hyun Woo (played by Kim Soo Hyun) luckily escaped death and returned happily to Hae In (played by Kim Ji Won).

However, in the final scene of the movie, Hae In still leaves after many years of living with the person she loves.

For many viewers, this is considered the emotional ending of the film, but some say that this ending makes them somewhat disappointed.

Launched in March, The Queen of Tears quickly caused a fever on the Netflix platform in many countries, at one point even reaching the top 1 position globally, in the non-English drama category.

Queen of Tears revolves around the love story of two characters including the third-generation heiress of Queens Group Hong Hae In (played by Kim Ji Won) and the son of a local grocery store owner Baek Hyun.

The film’s budget was 56 billion won (about 1,031 billion VND) for 16 episodes, equivalent to 3.5 billion won per episode (about 64 billion VND).

Despite the large budget investment, The Queen of Tears still brings large profits to the producers from selling the film’s broadcasting rights.
