4 Irritating Characters in “Queen of Tears”, According to Netizens 

On April 13th, a post titled “4 Irritating Characters in Queen of Tears” appeared on the online community “Theqoo,” sparking discussion.

In the post, 3 disliked antagonists from “Queen of Tears” were selected, and the reasons for their selection were explained.

First, the “main villain” Yoon Eun-sung (played by Park Sung-hoon) was criticized for “crossing the line as if he can do anything.”

Yoon Eun-sung, who appears as a former Wall Street analyst and M&A specialist in the drama, cannot forget his first love, Hong Hae-in (played by Kim Ji-won), and tries to intervene between her and her husband Baek Hyun-woo (played by Kim Soo-hyun), causing discord between them.

Netizens also criticized Yoon Eun-sung, saying, “He crosses the line too much” and “Who does he think he is to interfere with marriage?” “Why does he like a married woman?” “He doesn’t care about Hae-in’s feelings and does whatever he wants,” and “My blood pressure rises. Bring Ha Do-yeong (from “The Glory”) instead.”

Next, the character of Grace Goh (played by Kim Ju-ryeong) was mentioned.

The author called Grace Goh “a sneaky person” and said, “It’s annoying how she keeps getting involved everywhere.”

In the drama, Grace Koh, who has never failed in her schemes, fails for the first time when she tries to intervene between Hong Hae-in and Baek Hyun-woo. She also monitors the two and instigates conflicts between them. She even approaches Hae-in’s mother, Sun-hwa, to manipulate them. She also reveals the secrets of the Queens group to Yoon Eun-sung, who aims to destroy the group.

In response, netizens said, “She’s despicable,” but also commented, “It’s funny when Grace appears, even though she’s irritating”.

Lastly, Kim Seon-hwa, who is Hong Hae-in’s mother and the “pushover” of the Queens household, was mentioned.

The author expressed frustration with Seon-hwa, saying, “She hates Hae-in to the extreme and blindly favors Soo-cheol,” adding, “It’s almost as if she’s not a mother” and “It’s too much.”

In the drama, Kim Sun-hwa opposes the marriage of Hyun-woo and Hae-in, causing tension between them. She also shows blind favoritism towards Soo-cheol, the younger brother of Hae-in. 

Netizens commented, “Her heart will change once she knows Hae-in is suffering”.

Finally, Mo Seol-hee, who has been living with Hong Man-dae, the chairman of Queens Group for 30 years, is mentioned. She was imprisoned for adultery in the past and even gave birth in prison. Mo Seol-hee has been plotting to take over the Queens group for a long time.

Netizens expressed their frustration towards Mo Seol-hee, saying, “Mo Seol-hee is the worst. I hated her from the beginning” and “Mo Seol-hee is the most irritating one.”

Meanwhile, the drama “Queen of Tears” recorded an average nationwide viewership rating of 20.7% and 23.2% in the Seoul metropolitan area as of April 14, surpassing “Goblin” (20.5%) and ranking second in tvN’s all-time viewership ratings among K-dramas.
