The year is not over but it is not unlikely that we already have the best Netflix production. Released in 2023, it involved two veterans of the “K-drama” genre already at work on Crash Landing On You.
A new production by Kim Hee Won and Jang Young Woo
Kim Hee Won and Jang Young Woo are a powerhouse duo in the world of K-Dramas. To remember, they were respectively involved in the direction and production of Crash Landing On You. A show broadcast between 2019 and 2020 which attracted the international press with Variety declaring at the time that it is one of the “best international series on Netflix” or Times considering it as one of “best South Korean dramas on the platform”. An undeniable success that Kim Hee Won and Jang Young Woo reissued in 2024 with Queen of Tears (or The Queen of Tears in French)
Queen of Tears is a South Korean drama that immerses viewers in the world of chaebols, these extremely powerful family conglomerates in South Korea. The story focuses on the tumultuous marriage between Baek Hyeon Wu, an ordinary man, and Hong Hae In, the heiress of one of these chaebols. They see their world turned upside down overnight. Their marriage, marked by social differences and conflicting family expectations, is put to the test when the crisis hits their business.

The best Netflix productions
A synopsis that visibly appealed across the world. It is the only non-English-speaking series to have remained in the top 10 most watched series of the year for at least 15 weeks in a row.. A feat that, for English-speaking productions, we only find with The Brigerton Chronicles. In a different register, it has accumulated positive reviews all year round to be excellently rated on the specialized aggregator RottenTomatoes: a score of 100% for the press; 93% for the public. Enough to be one of the best productions in the history of the platform if we base ourselves on the RottenTomatoes scores.
- Arcane
- The Law According to Lidia Poët
- Dark Winds
- Crash Landing on You
- Supacell
- Scavengers Reign
- Dear Child
- Cyberpunk : Edgerunners
- Queen of Tears
- Jurassic World : Chaos Theory

The Queen of Tears is therefore undoubtedly the best Netflix series of 2024… for the moment. The South Korean series cannot yet claim victory, since season 2 of Arcane, the highest-rated series produced by Netflix, is expected to be broadcast from November 9.
