Traces Of Kim Ji-won’s “Fight for My Way” Can Be Found In “Queen of Tears”
The connection between the two works centered on Kim Ji-won is interesting.
tvN’s Saturday-Sunday drama “Queen of Tears” depicts the romance of Hong Hae-in (Kim Ji-won), the third-generation chaebol of Queens Group and Baek Hyun-woo (Kim Soo-hyun), a lawyer from a village. This is the story of a couple in their third year of marriage overcoming a dizzying crisis and starting to fall in love again.
“Queen of Tears” started broadcasting on March 9 with 5.9% of rating, and finally achieved 20.7% in the 12th episode, which was broadcast on April 14th. This work of writer Park Ji-eun is about to break tvN’s highest rating record ever, faster than her previous hit drama, “Crash Landing on You.”
There are many secrets to “Queen of Tears”‘ popularity. Kim Soo-hyun, who plays Baek Hyun-woo, has been making viewers laugh and sob and is now captivating women with his mournful love for Hong Hae-in. Kim Ji-won is also enjoying all-time buzz and popularity with her acting as Hong Hae-in.
This has made viewers pay attention to Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won’s previous works. And KBS 2TV’s “Fight for My Way,” which aired in May 2017, drew attention. Starring Kim Ji-won, Park Seo-joon, Ahn Jae-hong and Song Ha-yoon, the drama captures the romance of young people, which is drawing keen attention again seven years later.
This is because of the relationship between the characters surrounding Kim Ji-won. Actor Jeon Bae-soo played Choi Cheon-gap, Kim Ji-won’s father in “Fight for My Way.” He is currently portraying Baek Du-gwan, Baek Hyun-woo’s father and Hong Hae-in’s father-in-law, in “Queen of Tears.” Kwak Dong-yeon, who plays Hong Soo-chul, Hong’s younger brother in “Queen of Tears,” was actually Kim Ji-won’s trashy boyfriend in “Fight for My Way.” On top of that, Kim Soo-hyun’s ad-lib in the first episode of “Queen of Tears,” which reminds viewers of Kim Ji-won’s aegyo in “Fight for My Way,” also went viral.
