They established that “Vincenzo” (빈센조) and “Queen of Tears” (눈물의 여왕) are in a shared world.
While this was not the first, this is still very good. It means that more and more Korean producers are expanding their creativity. This can later open up an interesting interconnection between different stories.
It was a very sweet “I told you so” moment for the main male character.
While most would not understand, and get irritated, that the main male character was simply accepting the humiliation, discrimination, and everything, against him by the rich and wealthy people, especially his ex-in-laws, he was right in the end to endure it. It was not exactly for them, it was for his ex-wife.
He still loves his ex-wife, and his divorce was clearly made clear that it was because they had irreconcilable differences after they had a stillbirth. Most, if not all, couples experience major changes in their relationship, especially with the mother who's closely connected to the child in her womb.
Thus, even after their divorce, he remained with his ex-in-laws's company, just to be close to his ex-wife and protect her.
Unfortunately, no one wants to believe him. They wouldn't even listen to him when he said he has nothing to do with the bugging of their rooms. And the grandfather/chairman even fired him after he repeatedly warned them not to enter certain business transactions.
In the end, he was proven right.
The rich and wealthy family crashed down very hard. From the very top, to the very bottom.
The only person they can rely on was no other than the ex-husband. The very person they accused of spying on them. They very person the chairman/grandfather fired and refused to listen. That same person who divorced their daughter yet still stayed in their company for their daughter.
The family that was once at the very top of society is now at the very bottom; and their only option to hide was at a far province where the ex-husband grew up.
It was a moment of “I told you so, and you're lucky I stayed with you despite everything you did to me”.
