Queen of Tears: Episode 11 Recap 

Finding Chairman Hong’s Slush Fund! And Hong Man-dae Wakes Up

Hae-in reveals in front of many people that she has been diagnosed with a terminal illness. Right after spotting her husband Hyun-woo, she collapses and is rushed to the hospital. Her family is shocked to learn about her illness and that she doesn’t have much time left. 

Chairman Hong Wakes Up but Has No Memory—Or Is He Faking It?

Chairman Hong doesn’t recognize Seul-hee, who tried to kill him, and he seems to have blurred vision, acting unusually. Can Hyun-woo and Hae-in find Chairman Hong’s slush fund before Seul-hee and her son Eun-sung? 

Meanwhile, Hae-in’s family learns her exact diagnosis and that there is no treatment available in the country. Her mother blames Hyun-woo for not informing them. They are devastated to find out that they were unaware of Hae-in’s terminal condition. Hae-in’s mother regrets everything she has done to Hae-in up to this point. She has a heartfelt conversation with her daughter and sincerely apologizes. 

Scandal with Ex-Husband!

Although divorced, Hae-in and Hyun-woo confirm their feelings for each other and behave affectionately at the hospital, ignoring others' opinions. Hae-in warns Eun-sung, who resents her for never acknowledging him. Eun-sung tells Hyun-woo, “If you stay away from Hae-in, I’ll give you anything you want. Just come to me instead!” 

Hyun-woo is tracking down Chairman Hong’s slush fund and shares this with Hae-in. With the help of people who have been with the Queens Group and watched it grow, Hyun-woo aims to prevent the villainous mother and son from finding the slush fund. He stays close to Eun-sung intentionally, frustrating him. Eun-sung eventually tells Pyun Sung-wook, the head of a real estate agency, to deal with Hyun-woo. 

Hae-in and Hyun-woo, with the help of an office cleaner, juice delivery person, and Secretary Na (Yoon Bo-mi) in Queens Group, manage to collect shredded documents. They piece them together in Yongdu-ri and succeed in obtaining important documents.

Finding Chairman Hong’s 900 Billion Won Slush Fund!

Grace, who had been switching sides, finally aligns with the Queens Group and provides crucial information: Chairman Hong’s slush fund is somewhere in cash. The family learns about this and visits a promising location but returns empty-handed. Afterward, Hae-in encounters a dangerous situation! 

“Hyun-woo…?”

Hae-in and Hyun-woo are threatened by someone chasing their car on the road. The person who gets out of the car that had been desperately following them is Hyun-woo…?! So who is driving the car Hae-in is in?

The driver next to Hae-in is not Hyun-woo but Eun-sung. Due to her worsening memory from the illness, Hae-in mistakenly thought Eun-sung was Hyun-woo and got into his car. Hyun-woo, pursuing Eun-sung’s car, finally stops it and shouts Hae-in’s name loudly.

“Hae-in!!!”
