“Isn’t he the best?” Kim Soo-hyun is “Queen of Tears” writer Park Ji-eun’s PICK for a reason Once again, Kim Soo-hyun impresses, as expected. He has once again spread the wings of "Romantic Comedy King" Demonstrating perfect synergy with writer Park Ji-eun for the third time, he continues to thrill viewers every weekend night. Not only has he captured both ratings and topicality, but Kim Soo-hyun’s presence is also becoming more prominent. Kim Soo-hyun is currently performing passionately in tvN’s Saturday-Sunday drama “Queen of Tears” (written by Park Ji-eun, directed by Jang Young-woo and Kim Hee-won). He portrays the role of Baek Hyun-woo, the son of farmers from Yongdu-ri who married into a chaebol family, and he seems to effortlessly display all his charms. Baek Hyun-woo is a lawyer who graduated from Seoul National University Law School. He is the legal director of the Queens Group, possessing a smart brain and visuals more like a chaebol than a chaebol. Despite entering the chaebol family after falling in love with Hong Hae-in (Kim Ji-won), the daughter of the Queens Group, they end up divorcing after three years of marriage. However, he realizes his love for his wife again after she receives a terminal illness diagnosis. Kim Soo-hyun has truly embodied the character of Baek Hyun-woo. He timely appears to rescue Hong Hae-in when she is in crisis, shields her from the rain with an umbrella… He displays jealousy and tension upon the appearance of the secretive Yoon Eun-sung (Park Sung-hoon), who shows favor towards Hong Hae-in. Furthermore, he struggles to save the ruined Queens family. His character is a typical prince who appears at every crisis to rescue the female lead. Kim Soo-hyun seamlessly blends into the role of Baek Hyun-woo as if tailor-made for him, exuding a sense of perfection. However, he is not just playing the role of a cool prince. Similar to Cheon Song-yi (Jun Ji-hyun) in “My Love from the Star”, in “Queen of Tears”, Baek Hyun-woo also shows a comedic aspect. From the drunken crying scene in the first episode to childish jealousy and cuteness as he falls in love with Hong Hae-in again, Kim Soo-hyun has added additional dimensions to the character. He perfectly portrays Baek Hyun-woo’s story, captivating viewers with his charismatic performance. Despite facing awkward situations such as rumors of a high appearance fee or dating rumors sparked by a “two-shot” selfie uploaded by actress Kim Sae-ron, Kim Soo-hyun has overcome everything with his acting. In addition, his chemistry with Kim Ji-won, who plays the role of Hong Hae-in, has also been praised, naturally leading to an upward trend in ratings. Although the drama recorded a modest 5.9% viewership rating (hereafter based on Nielsen Korea) for the first episode broadcast on March 9th, it achieved its highest rating of 19% through continuous increases in subsequent episodes. As the romantic storyline gains momentum, surpassing the highest-rated tvN drama is only a matter of time. “Queen of Tears”, writer Park Ji-eun’s third collaboration with Kim Soo-hyun following “My Love from the Star” and “The Producers”, garnered significant attention even before its broadcast. Kim Soo-hyun gained popularity among global fans through “My Love from the Star”, establishing himself as a top actor, and won the acting grand prize that year for his role in “The Producers”. Sharing the glory with writer Park Ji-eun twice, especially considering that writer Park Ji-eun’s previous work “Crash Landing on You” recorded the highest viewership rating in tvN drama history, the expectations for “Queen of Tears” were higher than any other work. Kim Soo-hyun’s choice to trust writer Park Ji-eun’s vision for the third time has once again proven to be correct. Writer Park Ji-eun drew the role that suits Kim Soo-hyun best and Kim Soo-hyun brought the character to life with his profound acting. Kim Soo-hyun, who repaid writer Park Ji-eun’s trust with his acting, was indeed the “best”, as stated by writer Park Ji-eun. source : https://v.daum.net/v/20240415140220450?f=m

Based on SuJi's bio mom's conversations between her and the elder male character living in the same house, and the Grandma.... I can only assume that he's SuJi's mom's brother-in-law. He's her (dead) husband's brother and the elder grandma is his mother. SuJi's mom calls the elder male.... Samjun. Which is Uncle in Korean And calls the grandma "Umoni" which is mother in Korean but I don't think she's her bio mom but rather her mother-in-law. I think she's still living with er in-laws.
