Queen of Tears (2024– )
5/10
Acting is good but the plot keeps just getting worse.

Warning: Spoilers
I just finished ep 15 and there's no way in hell they are making up stuff for me to rate this show better. Kim Soohyun and Kim Jiwon are so very talented and they are the best part about the countless sad scenes, because you get to see their acting, which is exceptional. They're really good at portraying full emotions with their eyes and you will find yourself crying with them in every scene.

Here's the thing, the writers have tried so hard to give the audience plotwist after plotwist that they kinda loose the actual direction of the drama. It started as a romcom but right now I feel like watching "Starway to heaven" all over again (yes, it's that painful) and do not take this as a compliment at all. This show have had me stressed over weeks! It's unbearable to watch the leads go through that much. Almost dying, going to jail, losing their memories, constantly being manipulated??? Like what the hell is going on? The villain keeps winning and even if at the end he dies or whatever, it won't still make up for the amount of damage he has caused to Haein and Hyunwoo for both their personal lives and their relationship.

It would not pissed me off this much if this show wasn't labeled as a romcom, and when you see the trailer you expect something so different. This is a full drama with thriller nuances.
