Production[edit]

Development[edit]

Screenwriter Park Ji-eun started preparing her new project entitled Queen of Tears about two years after finishing Crash Landing on You (2019–2020), which starred Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin. Lee Eung-bok, who has directed hit dramas such as Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (2016–2017), Descendants of the Sun (2016), Mr. Sunshine (2018), and Sweet Home (2020–present), was reportedly in talks to join the team at that time.[30]

Studio Dragon confirmed that the production of Queen of Tears would start in the first half of 2023, and the series was expected to be released in the second half of 2023. It is co-directed by Jang Young-woo [ko], who worked on Crash Landing on You (2019–2020) and Bulgasal: Immortal Souls (2021–2022), and Kim Hee-won, who worked on Vincenzo (2021) and Little Women (2022).[31] Aside from Studio Dragon, the series is also co-produced by Culture Depot and Showrunners.[32]

The first script reading was conducted on March 30, 2023, near Sangam-dong, Mapo District, Seoul.[33]

The total budget of the series was ₩56 billion (US$48.95 million) costing ₩3.5 billion (US$3.06 million) per episode.[34] It was initially estimated to be over ₩40 billion (US$34.97 million).[35]

Casting[edit]

In April 2022, Park Ji-eun proposed the female lead role in her new project to Lee Ji-eun, but the offer was declined.[30] Kim Soo-hyun received a proposal for the male lead role the next day.[36]

The appearances of Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won were officially confirmed in December 2022.[37][38][39] This is the third collaboration between Park and Kim Soo-hyun, after My Love from the Star (2013–2014) and The Producers (2015).[40]

Park Sung-hoon, Kwak Dong-yeon, and Lee Joo-bin were cast in February and April 2023, respectively.[41][42][43]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography of the series began from April to December 2023,[44][45] and it took place in various cities in South Korea and Germany.[46][47]

Original soundtrack[edit]

The soundtrack of the series, led by music director Nam Hye-seung and features artists BSS, 10cm, Heize, Crush, Isaac Hong, Kim Na-young, Paul Kim, Choi Yu-ree, So Su-bin, and Dori, was revealed on March 6, 2024.[48] The series' lead actor, Kim Soo-hyun, confirmed his participation to lend his voice for the first time in 10 years.[49] Zerobaseone's Kim Tae-rae also partake for the series' soundtrack.[50]
