The reunion of actors Kim Ji Won and Kwak Dong Yeon is creating quite a buzz among drama fans.

The popular tvN weekend drama 'Queen of Tears' is winning hearts with the undeniable chemistry between Kim Ji Won and Kwak Dong Yeon, who are portraying siblings on screen.

In the drama, they're playing the roles of Hong Hae In and Hong Su Cheol, the third generation of the wealthy Queens Group. Hong Hae In, the elder sister, is seen 'educating' her naive younger brother, Hong Su Cheol, showcasing a realistic sibling dynamic.

Whenever Hong Su Cheol acts immaturely, Hong Hae In steps in with her tough love approach, earning her the nickname 'cider'.

Viewers are finding amusement in Hong Su Cheol's 'education' by his sister, Hong Hae In. Comments like "Karma of a previous life", "There was a reason for it", "Still, their relationship as siblings was not good", "Su Cheol was reborn as a younger brother", "Reincarnation of 'Queen of Tears' siblings" are flooding in, showing viewers' deep engagement with the show.

This is partly because they once starred as lovers in KBS 2TV's 'Fight for My Way' back in 2017. Clips from the drama where they shared screen space are being revisited online due to the popularity of 'Queen of Tears'.

In 'Fight for My Way', Kwak Dong Yeon played Kim Ji Won's perennial exam-taker boyfriend, who was financially supported by Kim Ji Won but ended up cheating on her.

Choi Aera (played by Kim Ji Won) is working at a department store info desk and is struggling to support Kim Mu Gi, but Kim Mu Gi ends up having an affair with a woman from the exam village. This, coupled with a surprise pregnancy, left viewers fuming.

The reference to their past drama is adding to the viewers' immersion, causing laughter. Expectations are high for what kind of synergy they will show in 'Queen of Tears', which has reached a turning point.

'Queen of Tears', starring Kim Soo Hyun, Kim Ji Won, Park Sung Hoon, Kwak Dong Yeon, and Lee Joo Bin, tells the story of Hong Hae In (Kim Ji Won), the third generation of the Queens Group chaebol and the queen of the department store, and Baek Hyun Woo (Kim Soo Hyun), the son of a market leader and the prince of the supermarket, as they navigate a crisis as a three-year-old couple and start to fall in love again.

Recently, it has been enjoying great popularity, recording an average of 20.9%, peaking at 22.7% based on the metropolitan area households, and an average of 19%, peaking at 20.6% based on national households.

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.
