Queen of Tears Plot
Hong Hae-in is a chaebol heiress, known as the ‘queen’ of Queens Group Department Stores while Baek Hyun-woo, her husband, is the legal director of the conglomerate and known as the ‘supermarket prince’. Hong Hae-in is described as a cold and calculated woman while Baek Hyun-woo is warm-hearted and emotional.
A marriage between an influential woman and an entry-level employee is dubbed the ‘wedding of the century’ and is nothing but a facade. Belonging to two different worlds, the couple could not overcome their differences but a big crisis brings these two together. Soon, they realise that maybe being different from one another is not so bad after all.
Queen of Tears Episode 4 Preview
The preview shows Hyun-woo slowly feeling things other than indifference towards Hae-in. He is seen showing signs of jealousy as Eun-sung and Hae-in spend a lot more time together. From these two talking in a hushed manner to laughing together – Hyun-woo gets confused at the new feelings creeping up in his heart. The married couple also seem to be getting closer as they look at each other in a new light after the kiss they share.
Eun-sung seems to be getting closer to Hae-in, surprising the latter with his connections and moves. Hae-in is oblivious to his layered actions and enjoys being around him as he is the key to her entering the ‘Trillion Club’ alongside other department stores in South Korea. His intentions seem clouded with something darker but what is it? Why is he targeting Hae-in? What is his purpose?
On the other hand, it seems as though Hae-in is cured of her disease but it isn’t said outright whether it is true or not. But it seems like she is angry at someone trying to betray her. But who could it be? Is it Hyun-woo or Eun-sung or her family?
Queen of Tears Episode 3 Recap
Episode 3 continues with Hyun-woo saving Hae-in from the wild boar during the family hunt. Eun-sung comes to check on her but Hyun-woo immediately takes her away from him, leaving the former to look at them with a dark gaze. As the couple walk back, Hae-in hurts herself and Hyun-woo ends up carrying her to their room.
In the third year of their marriage, Hae-in ends up feeling her heart beating again for Hyun-woo. She thought something was wrong because she was terminally ill.
However, the doctor said, “It seems like a common change of mind of a person who is about to die,” drawing an incredulous look from Hong Hae-in. She also begins feeling empathy towards others, especially her employees – leaving her assistant surprised as well.
We also get an insight into Yoon Eun-sung and his uncomfortable personality. It becomes clear that Eun-sung is trying to vy for Hae-in’s attention with his connections and power but it seems as though he may be hiding something sinister and dark within him. He calls Hae-in for a dinner meeting with Mr. Hermann but the latter doesn’t show up, leaving the two to catch up and talk about business. He tries to sow seeds of doubt in her head regarding her married life but she dismisses them quickly.
Eun-sung drops a drunk Hae-in back home, making Hyun-woo feel extremely uncomfortable and agitated at Eun-sung’s dismissive behaviour. Hae-in declares that she will do all the things that she wasn’t able to do for so many years and will not hold herself back because she only has three months to do it all. Through a hasty action, Hyun-woo gets close to Hae-in. He tries to move away but she pulls him back in. She keeps questioning herself but ends up doing something that shocks both the viewers and Hyun-woo – she kisses him.
