Queen of Tears (Season 1)

Queen of Tears (2024) is a Korean romantic drama you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Jang Young-woo and Kim Hee-won, the series tracks a marriage in freefall. Hong Hae-in (Kim Ji-won) runs the family department store empire with the kind of cool authority that leaves no room for sentiment. Her husband Baek Hyun-woo (Kim Soo-hyun) is the company's legal director — and for months he has quietly been drawing up divorce papers.

Then she gets a diagnosis that changes the math. He doesn't file. They haven't suddenly forgiven each other, and the series doesn't pretend otherwise — instead it lets the mess of old resentment and reluctant care sit side by side as something unexpected starts to grow back. Kwak Dong-yeon and Park Sung-hoon round out an ensemble that keeps every side plot grounded.

The show aired on tvN in 2024 and broke cable rating records in South Korea. Stream Queen of Tears online on iFILM.
