Actors Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won star as a couple in the new tvN drama Queen of Tears, which portrays a tumultuous three-year marriage journey.Scheduled for weekend airing, “Queen of Tears” delves into the lives of Hong Hae-in (Kim Ji-won), an heir managing a large department store, and Baek Hyun-woo (Kim Soo-hyun), son of a mayor of a small town, as the two navigate the complexities of married life.The series marks Kim Soo-hyun’s return to the screen after about three years. This has sparked considerable anticipation, given his previous success in the mega-hit romance series, “Moon Embracing the Sun” (2012), “My Love from the Star” (2013) and “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay” (2020).Kim addressed these speculations regarding his hiatus during a press conference at a hotel in Guro District, Seoul, on Thursday.”It wasn’t intentional. I’ve been diligently searching for the right project,” he said.
“In my pursuit, I came across ‘Queen of Tears’ … Despite this being my first married role, I felt a strong desire as an actor to infuse myself and Baek’s inherent charms, including his delicate nature, intelligence and so on, to resonate with audiences.” Similarly, Kim Ji-won, known for her emotive interpretation of her roles in “Descendants of the Sun” (2016) and “My Liberation Notes” (2022), teased her portrayal of a successful entrepreneur with a not-so-successful love life.”Expressing the accumulated emotions of marriage, distinct from the excitement of new love, posed considerable challenges for me,” she said. “As an unmarried individual, I worked on conveying aspects such as marital stagnation and the detachment arising from unresolved emotions.”Thursday’s event also featured supporting actors Park Sung-Hoon, Kwak Dong-yeon and Lee Joo-bin.Park assumes the role of former Wall Street analyst Yoon Eun-seong, in a notable return to antagonistic roles after his success as Jeon Jae-joon in Netflix’s smash hit series, “The Glory” (2023).Park said, “Beneath the flashy facade of my character lies complexity. Revealing too much about my character would become a spoiler, so I encourage viewers to follow along as the show unfolds.”Kwak portrays Hong’s 카지노사이트 younger brother, Soo-cheol, and Lee plays Cheon Da-hye, Soo-cheol’s wife.
