It’s our first-ever episode, and we’re breaking down the 2024 hit QUEEN OF TEARS. Dulcé and Chrissy set the stage, introducing us to the glitzy world of Queens Group and the humble village of Yongduri. Meet our lead couple: the frosty ice queen Haein and her painfully normal hubby Hyunwoo—three years into a marriage that’s hanging by a thread. Hyunwoo’s got divorce papers ready to go… but then Haein stumbles upon a bombshell that flips everything upside down.

Welcome back to Queens Land! We dive headfirst and learn about Haein and Hyunwoo’s heartbreaking miscarriage, which finally explains the rift in their relationship. Meanwhile, Hyunwoo starts catching feelings again, but his jealousy is off the charts as Eunsung keeps sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong.  Haein then saves the day and rolls into Yongduri with trucks full of steaks, lobsters, and other goodies for the villagers. Chrissy and Dulcé also discuss TikTok’s impending ban, Korea’s ever-changing slang and grammar, Korea’s toxic internet culture, SVU & Ice T, and karaoke.
