We are just one week away from the finale of tvN drama Queen of Tears and the success is absolutely a team effort of acting, writing, and directing. But K-netizens and critics alike are noting that this is Kim Soo Hyun‘s third mega hit in one decade, and fifth successful drama in his career. It almost felt like an inside joke for him to be the tears in Queen of Tears since he had his breakthrough in The Moon Embraces the Sun as King Lee Hwon and his crying, and goodness was he amazeballs in there. So K-ent is saying that when Kim Soo Hyun cries the ratings come and he’s absolutely the top of his generation as leading actor and ratings deliver-er. I still remember his teen roles in When it Snows for Christmas and Giant where he wowed me and then proving his leading man material in Drean High, so seeing him reach the pinnacle so young thanks to MoonSun, cement it in You From Another Star, challenge himself in Producer and It’s Okay to Not be Okay, and then return to the top again in QoT is just reward all us Soo Hyuns for over a decade of love.

Followed his career since Giant as well. Watched all his works after. Queen of Tears has been absolute treat as his fan. Can’t wait for the rest of the episodes and his OST
Today's episode will easily break the records to become the highest rated drama in TVN.
If it was 20 episode it could have become highest rank in cable TV.But then there would be unnecessary drag to the story line,maybe they could have cut it into 1 hr show instead of 1 1/2.
But I guess it is perfect as it is.i am loving all the storylines.after you from another stars there hasn't been a drama that was so entertaining from the same writer.She should collaborate with Kim Soo Hyun more.What a masterpiece!
Yes!!! Mlfs was just amazing!! It held up so well even if it’s over a decade old. I feel like rewatching as soon as the last ep was done and it brought me to this blog! I loved cloy too but after seeing this writer getting 3 mega hits with Ksh, it’s obv they work the best together. She likes him a lot and vice versa seems like. Hope they work together again and maybe Jjh too. I know Mlfs pairing is bit too strong to overshadow but they are both great actors. With a completely different concept, I think it can work!!
I love Giant, and definitely thought the young cast were so promising from Kim Soohyun, Nam Jihyun and Yeo Jingoo. But I will remember that drama for the very interesting Minwoo-Mijoo story. haha
I do think it was 'Will it Snow For Christmas' that made just be a fan. He definitely is the actor that does now disaapoint in his acting picks and his performance...
So happy he is back way way on top. Hope to get more of his projects...
KSH is the absolute epitome what a successful actor’s career should look like. He has always been a fantastic actor but he also puts in so much effort, thought and dedication to each of his roles. He trained 3 months as an idol for Dream High. Then took on the role of a King and wowing the whole country whilst winning a Baeksang. MLFTS made him one of the biggest Hallyu stars. Yet he did not hesitate to take on a second lead role and a complete u-turn from Do Min Joo in the form of Seung Chan in Producers just a year later.
He has the most impressive filmography amongst actors in his age group, no doubt. The diversity of his roles, the critical acclaim he gathers for each one and the success of all his projects are what makes him Kim Soo Hyun. I’ve been a fan since DH, and even back then, everyone knew he’d be huge. But I still feel pretty amazed to see just how far he’s reached and even more excited to see how far he’ll continue going.
I thk his work ethics dictate the success. Often people regard reaching a certain level, their fame is enough to draw viewers and ratings then they stay that way. But you can tell he loves acting and puts in the effort in his craft and makes every character he takes on his own. His draw is really well deserved.
KSH has the ability to break me without even trying. I was watching QOT ep13 with my mom, and that ending followed by epilogue drowned us both. It is embarrassing how easily he makes a puppet out of people. Hes got an extraordinary ability to not act, but BE a character. Im forever amazed at the way he manages to touch people’s hearts with such ease really.
Very recently ive come to realize how lucky ksh stans are. He is insanely popular overseas obviously but more importantly, the whole of sk loves him to death. He is ultra successful no matter what genre he picks and minus a movie, every single thing he starred went on to be a hit, or a stratospheric hit. I’d love to know how it feels to be a stan of someone so high up the pecking ladder that the position never feels in danger.
Will it Snow for Christmas childhood part was so good! I loved him in this role.
For Giant, his character was more discreet than the middle brother.
I'm happy for him, he deserves this success, he's a great actor.
It’s 6am and I don’t have much to say haha.
Only that KSH just wins at everything in life. That’s all!
The epilogue had my standing ovation
He should get his money back for the pay cut he took
Every cent of it they need to pay him!
The words were so hopelessly cringy but he made it work. It was perfect acting, perfect posture, perfect tone and perfect crying. Truely king of tears 😂
