Recently, Korean netizens and Kpop idols have been following the "Queen Never Cry" trend. This is a trend similar to the "chill guy" trend of Gen Z, these two characters are considered a match made in heaven.

The "Queen Never Cry" meme is taking social media by storm, especially on platforms like TikTok, Reddit, X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram. With its humorous expressions, impressive sayings and interesting contexts, this new meme has attracted countless young people, creating a wave of creativity on social media since late November.

"Queen Never Cry" is a Korean webtoon art style, featuring a mother and her newborn baby. When the midwife handed the baby to the mother, at first the baby cried like any other newborn baby. However, the nurse then whispered in the baby's ear, "The Queen never cries", and the baby immediately stopped crying, folded his arms, and looked very "cool", very "indifferent".

Originating from the Korean webtoon The Ki Sister, the meme "Queen never cry" quickly became a hot trend among young people at the end of the year. The image of a baby with a cold expression, arms folded proudly like a real queen is used by TikTok users to express a calm spirit in the face of humorous, "half-crying, half-laughing" situations in daily life.

The story revolves around the Ki family, consisting of four sisters, Jang Nyeo, Sal Gyo, Jae Rim and Jenny, living in a villa along the Cheonggyecheon Stream in Seoul. These girls were educated at home and grew up in isolation, so they have an eccentric appearance and personality that makes others "shy".

The main character is the youngest sister Jenny, described as a girl who is passionate about romance novels. Jenny embarks on a journey to find true love but encounters many funny and sad situations. The story combines humorous elements and touching moments in the lives of the characters. Regarding the popular meme, this is the scene in chapter 34, when the mother Serina, who has just given birth, whispers in the baby's ear: "Queen never cry". Immediately, the child folds his arms, his expression indifferent and full of authority, surprising the surrounding doctors.

The above meme quickly went viral because of its unique combination of humor, drama and the stark contrast when the child's emotions suddenly changed. The impressive phrase "Queen never cry" is also a way for young people to remind each other to stay calm in difficult situations. For the above reasons, netizens on various platforms are racing to spread this meme and express it in many different ways. Many people think that this is a trend quite similar to the "chill guy" trend that has been buzzing among Gen Z in recent days.

When the meme "Queen never cry" became a hit, netizens paired it with another meme that was also popular before, "Chill guy". This meme pair is considered a match made in heaven, the relaxed, optimistic guy goes with the girl who doesn't cry, has a positive attitude in all situations. Both help young people have more motivation to face the pressure of work at the end of the year.

Not only "causing a fever" in the TikTok user community, this humorous meme also attracted the attention of many celebrities, including Yunjin (LE SSERAFIM), Yujin (IVE), ILLIT, Sakuya (NCT WISH), Ella (MEOVV),... Different from the cool image on stage, in real life, the youngest member of MEOVV - Ella often makes people excited with her mischievous moments.
