Will ‘Queen of Tears’ have a happy ending? |

Billed as one of the biggest dramas of 2024, ‘Queen of Tears‘ has the audience glued to the screens, not just in Korea but worldwide too. The drama enjoys massive popularity in Korea, securing a viewership of 21 percent for its 14th episode, while on Netflix, the drama has cemented its spot in the top 10 non-English dramas. Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won‘s electrifying chemistry makes this drama a must-watch.With the finale episode just days away, here’s decoding if ‘Queen of Tears’ will have a happy ending or not!
What’s the plot?
Queen of Tears narrates the story of Hong Hae-in (Kim Ji-won), a third-generation chaebol heiress of Queens Group, and Baek Hyun-woo (Kim Soo-hyu), the son of farmers from Yongdu-ri. While on the verge of divorce, this couple discovers that Hong Hae-in is terminally ill, and their romance rekindles. Life throws another curveball at the couple as Hong Hae-in’s family loses their grand group in family politics.
The latest episode saw Hong Hae-in getting operated to cure her cancer, but in the process, she loses her memory. While a bitter conspiracy lands Baek Hyun-woo behind bars. The lovers have been separated and the circumstances have changed… leaving fans desperately praying for a happy ending!

Will Hong Hae-in regain her memories and reunite with Baek Hyun-woo?
‘Queen of Tears’ is written by Park Ji-eun, the brains behind numerous hit Korean dramas. Interestingly, her last two ventures, The Legend of the Blue Sea (2016) and Crash Landing on You (2019-2020) were massively popular, with the latter one gaining cult global status. The common factor between these two dramas was a pleasing, positive conclusion. So if Park Ji-eun continues with her ‘happy ending’ streak (we are hoping she does) then be rest assured that nothing’s separating Hyun-woo and Hae-in!

What will be the plot twist in Episodes 15 and 16?
Episodes 13 and 14 have left several intriguing loose ends… with the major one being Hae-in’s memory. The preview hinted that blurred bits of Hae-in’s memory are rushing back and a reunion could well be planned for Episode 16. Meanwhile, Yoon Eun-sung (Park Sung-hoon) is desperately trying to keep Hyun-woo behind bars, but Hyun-woo’s competent lawyer friends will make sure that he is out of danger. At the end of this eight-week run, all bits of the puzzle are adding up for a broken but a beautiful narrative. Unless the makers have a major plot twist up their sleeve, be rest assured that ‘Queen of Tears’ will have a happy ending!
