SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA: 'Queen of Tears' on Netflix is a surprising blend of romance and comedy that premiered on March 9, 2024.

Starring Kim Soo-hyun (Baek Hyun-woo) and Kim Ji-won (Hong Hae-in), this 16-episode series follows the story of an ordinary guy, Hyun-woo, who gets tangled up in the chaotic world of the wealthy Hong family, led by the fiery Hong Hae-in. 

Episode 9 of 'Queen of Tears' throws the Hong family into a frenzy as the ruthless Moh Seul-hee kicks them out of their house. Just when hope seems lost, Hyun-woo offers to help the Hongs. This unexpected situation sparks a wave of questions.

In Episode 9 of 'Queen of Tears', the Hong family gets kicked out by the mean Moh Seul-hee, while Grace Goh makes a cunning action. But just when things look hopeless, Hyun-woo, our knight in shining armor, swoops in to save the day.

Here's the weird part, even though getting evicted from their own house is a bummer, the Hongs seem kind of okay with it (except for Hae-in's mom, who's always causing trouble).

Maybe it's because they have to ditch their smartphones and the internet – a situation that might be nice for a change, considering how much we're all glued to our phones these days.

This unexpected turn makes you wonder, could Hyun-woo's humble abode be just what the Hongs need? Maybe they'll finally learn to appreciate real connections over all that money and stuff.

The episode also shows trouble brewing within the Hong family itself. Hong Soo-cheol cries all the time, while Hong Beom-ja is the only one who shows her feelings clearly, yelling and crying a lot.

This family drama makes you wonder what will happen next. Will the Hongs realize Grace tricked them? This whole mess may make them think about what's important and fix their family problems.

Hyun-woo is a good guy, even though helping Hae-in's family might cause problems for him later. This could bring him and Hae-in closer, but it could also stir up trouble at his own home.

Will Hyun-woo get annoyed by the Hongs' behavior? Could this act of kindness backfire, creating tension within his household?

There's also the chairman Hong Man-dae to worry about. If he wakes up, everything will change again – the family fights and who has the power will all be up in the air.

Episode 9 leaves us with a bunch of questions. We'll have to wait and see, but one thing's for sure: the future of 'Queen of Tears' promises to be captivating.

'Queen of Tears' is available for streaming on Netflix
