On Friday, August 2, the American rapper A$AP Rocky posted a thread of photos and videos to wish his second son, Riot Rose Mayers, for his first birthday. In the Instagram thread, the rapper included one video where he was holding his son in his living room, and it also captured what was played on the television.

Many fans immediately noted the scene for the recently released and famous K-Drama series, Queen of Tears. When this piece of information landed on the internet, netizens were surprised. Many admitted that K-dramas are popular these days and are, therefore, expected to be consumed by anyone and everyone.

However, it was still surprising for many to know that the rapper was watching a K-Drama series as they had never seen him interact with South Korean entertainment before.

Some stated that he made the right choice and praised the series for its undying fame and influence. Others expressed the rapper needs better K-Drama recommendations as Queen of Tears supposedly failed to communicate the true essence of what K-Drama holds in store for their viewers. Here are a few reactions from fans and netizens regarding the recent news,
