Queen of Tears: Episode 7 Recap

Eun-sung, the Villain's Son

Eun-sung and his gang's plans are going smoothly, but Hyun-woo senses something suspicious and starts to fight back. In addition, this episode reveals that Eun-sung is the son of Moh Seul-hee, making the mother-son villain duo a major axis of the drama. 

Hae-in is deeply shocked to learn that Hyun-woo is preparing for a divorce. It is even more shocking to her that he decided to divorce on the day she found out she didn't have long to live. Disappointed, Hae-in ignores Hyun-woo's attempts to comfort her by reminding her of their honeymoon. 

Hae-in undergoes tests at a famous cancer center in Germany, but the results are not encouraging. The doctor explains that while they can raise her white blood cell count, fighting an incurable disease requires the patient's will. Hyun-woo, in an attempt to motivate Hae-in, deliberately changes his approach.

Hyun-woo: "If I just sat back and did nothing, I could be the son-in-law of a chaebol family! So why did I do this? It's because you were scared! I'll keep catering to your every whim, so can you at least change your will a little?" 

Villain Eun-sung's Plan

The contract for the Queens Continental City Resort is being handled jointly by Eun-sung and Su-cheol, Hae-in's younger brother. Eun-sung plans to leak to investors that the resort construction site is subject to height restrictions, which will limit permits. This will cause the investment company and the brokerage firm that provided the loan to demand early repayment. At that time, Eun-sung plans to step in and offer additional support. Once the embezzlement of Queens Chairman Hong Man-dae is exposed, the entire owner's family will go to jail. And Eun-sung plans to become the largest shareholder of Queens by securing its stocks and shares. 

The Queen's family is turned upside down when they learn that Hyun-woo has installed eavesdropping equipment in Chairman Man-dae's room and is preparing for a divorce from Hae-in. And could it be that Seul-hee's son is Eun-sung? Beom-ja hides that she knows something and tries to find out more about Man-dae's live-in girlfriend Seul-hee. 

As everyone expected, Eun-sung is Seul-hee's son. When Beom-ja hires a private investigator, she discovers that Seul-hee had been living under a different name and had a son, Eun-sung, while she was in prison. 

This mother-son duo is trying to bring down the Queens family in different ways. As expected, actress Lee Mi-sook, who has played many villain roles, is the boss-level villain. 

Seul-hee, who has been attached to the Queens family for about 30 years and has been thoroughly preparing, and her son Eun-sung, who is also trying to bring down the Queens in another way... Can Hyun-woo handle these mother-son villains alone? 

Everyone is suspicious of Hyun-woo, and even Hae-in and her father start investigating his finances and who he meets. However, they are shaken by Hyun-woo's appearance of using only car wash fees, the only person who doesn't show any dirt even if you shake him. 

Hae-in's illness becomes more serious and she even forgets that she fought with Hyun-woo. Hae-in's appearance changes drastically day and night, and Hyun-woo is deeply shocked and bursts into tears. Hae-in confesses her love, "I love you Baek Hyun-woo."
