A Korean meme is going viral on social media platforms, including Instagram, Reddit, and TikTok. The meme features a panel from Chapter 34 of The Ki Sisters, a comedy (yes, comedy) webtoon about four homeschooled sisters who grew up in a sinister mansion. These sisters look scary, but looks can be deceiving.

In the viral panel that inspired the “Queen Never Cry” meme, a mother tells her crying baby, “Queen never cry.” The baby immediately stops crying and gives the reader a dead-eyed stare.

“Queen Never Cry” took off on X (formerly Twitter) thanks to this user, who asked for the baby’s lore on November 23. That tweet alone racked up over 4 million views in just one day.
