In Episode 10 of 'Queen of Tears', Hyun-woo's mother overhears Hae-in talking to a doctor and discovers the devastating truth – Hae-in has a brain tumor.

This revelation completely changes the game. Hyun-woo's mother's immediate decision to care for Hae-in, keeping the secret from her own family, speaks volumes about her character. We see a fierce loyalty and compassion that transcends past animosity.

Meanwhile, Hae-in's mother's behavior continues to be a source of frustration. Her insensitive accusations about Hae-in working with Yoon Eun-seong are hurtful and highlight the lack of understanding between them.

We see a softer side of Hyun-woo, the estranged husband, as he bares his soul to his mother. The revelation of Hae-in's illness adds a new layer of complexity to their already strained relationship.

Hyun-woo's emotional confession felt genuine, there was a rawness in his voice, a desperation in his plea for his mother to look after her as her daughter.

We saw regret for his past behavior, the tears a stark contrast to the hardened exterior he's presented so far.

This vulnerability makes him a more relatable character. His mother's reaction adds another dimension. Initially angered by Hyun-woo's actions, her concern for Hae-in ultimately moves the viewers. The scene where she cooks a feast for Hae-in is heartwarming.

It highlights the maternal bond, the unwavering love that wants nothing more than to see their child cared for. This selfless act could be a turning point and may soften Hae-in's stance toward Hyun-woo.

'Queen of Tears' is available for streaming on Netflix
