tvN has treated fans to a sneak peek of its upcoming drama, “Queen of Tears,” unveiling the first teaser that offers a glimpse into the miraculous, thrilling, and humorous love story crafted by the acclaimed writer Park Ji Eun, known for hits like “Crash Landing on You,” “My Love From the Star,” and “Producer.”

The narrative of “Queen of Tears” revolves around a married couple who defy the odds, surviving a crisis and navigating the complexities of their relationship.

Kim Soo Hyun takes on the role of Baek Hyun Woo, the legal director of the conglomerate Queens Group, while Kim Ji Won portrays his wife, Hong Hae In, celebrated as the “queen” of Queens Group’s department stores due to her status as the chaebol heiress.

In the recently released teaser, the story unfolds with Baek Hyun Woo visibly stunned, grappling with the realization that he finds Hong Hae In remarkably attractive. Overwhelmed by his reaction, he questions in bewilderment, “Why is she pretty? Why does she look pretty [to me]?”

As the tension builds and a potential romantic moment seems to be on the horizon, the teaser takes an unexpected turn. Hong Hae In, instead of reciprocating the moment, surprises Baek Hyun Woo with a bold declaration, exclaiming, “Aren’t you going to respond? If you don’t respond, you’re dead meat!”

The teaser crescendos with a comical twist as Baek Hyun Woo, startled by the unexpected outburst, retreats with a terrified scream. Reflecting on the experience, he humorously concludes, “I was wondering why my heart was racing so fast. It turns out it was because I was scared.”

“Queen of Tears” is set to make its premiere on March 9 at 9:20 p.m. KST, promising viewers a delightful blend of romance, humour, and unexpected twists.

As anticipation builds for the series, the teaser serves as a tantalizing preview of the chemistry and dynamics that will unfold between the lead characters. Fans can mark their calendars for this intriguing love story that defies conventions and promises to keep audiences entertained.
