Korean drama Queen of Tears (2024) has aired 6 episodes on Netflix. This drama presents more and more theories and mysteries that make the audience curious.

Starting from the theory of who actually saved Hong Hae In when he drowned? Besides, is Yoon Eun Sung Moh Seul Hee's daughter? Check out the speculation from the theories circulating, come on!

Warning: This article contains spoilers!

1. Was it Baek Hyun Woo who saved Hong Hae In from drowning?

In episode 6, Hong Hae In (Kim Ji Won) said that when he was little he and his older brother, Hong Su Wan (Ko Dong Ha), drowned. According to Hong Hae In's story, Hong Su Wan, who had been rescued, returned to help him.

However, if you look at the scene in episode 6, the person who saved Hong Hae In was actually wearing an all-black outfit, not green like Hong Su Wan. Viewers connected the figure with the companion in the school photo in Baek Hyun Woo's (Kim Soo Hyun) room.

There is a photo of children wearing red clothes, while beside them a companion wears a black top and shorts. The posture and color of the companion's clothes are similar to the figure who saved Hong Hae In.

On the other hand, viewers also speculated that Baek Hyun Woo was the one who saved Hong Hae In. If you look at their similar ages, it's possible that Baek Hyun Woo was only aware of the location where Hong Hae In drowned.

2. What was the reason why little Yoon Eun Sung looked at Hong Hae In's necklace?

Viewers also wonder why young Yoon Eun Sung (Lee Joo Won) looked at little Hong Hae In's (Min Seo Young) necklace. At that time Hong Hae In defended little Hong Soo Cheol (Kim Joon Eui) who was thrown by the ball by Yoon Eun Sung.

Could it be that the necklace has a special meaning for Yoon Eun Sung? Or is it just because Yoon Eun Sung is jealous of Hong Hae In? There are also those who speculate that now the necklace is not with Hae In, but with Eun Sung.

3. Are Moh Seul Hee and Yoon Eun Sung mother-daughter?

Hong Beom Ja (Kim Jung Nan), Hong Hae In's aunt, begins to be suspicious of Moh Seul Hee (Lee Mi Sook), Hong Man Dae's (Kim Kap Soo) lover. Moreover, for 20 years, Moh Seul Hee seemed to be manipulating her father.

Until finally, Hong Beom Ja found out about Moh Seul Hee's past. It turns out that Moh Seul Hee's real name is On Sun Yeong. 30 years ago, Oh Sun Yeong died after being imprisoned for adultery.

While in prison, it turned out that Moh Seul Hee was pregnant. Viewers speculate that the child Moh Seul Hee gave birth to in prison was Yoon Eun Sung. In episode 5, the two of them also lived at the Evergreen Hope Orphanage.

4. Is Hong Soo Cheol's child Yoon Eun Sung's biological son?

Another theory that is currently being discussed, is Hong Geon Woo (Goo See Woo) not Hong Soo Cheol's (Park Sung Hoon) biological child? All these suspicions started when Hong Beom Ja asked why Hong Geon Woo was handsome and smart, while Hong Soo Cheol wasn't.

Viewers speculate that Hong Geon Woo could be the son of Cheon Da Hye (Lee Joo Bin) and Yoon Eun Sung. If this fact is true, it is not surprising that the secret was not revealed, because Grace Go (Kim Joo Ryung) took care of Hong Geon Woo's DNA test.

Moreover, in episode 6, the audience finally found out that Yoon Eun Sung, Cheon Da Hye, Grace Go, and Moh Seul Hee were allies. They intend to destroy the Queens family, but the reason is not yet known.

5. Will the Queens go bankrupt and live in Yongdu-ri?

On X (Twitter), the theory circulated that the Queens family would actually go bankrupt because of Yoon Eun Sung's plans. When that happens, it is likely that Baek Hyun Woo will be the one to save them.

But while Baek Hyun Woo and Hong Hae In struggle, it's likely that the Queens will stay in Yongdu-ri. Because a teaser circulated about Hong Hae In's family visiting Yongdu-ri.

After episodes 5 and 6 aired, more and more theories were tweeted by viewers. Do you have any other theories that make you curious?
