tvN’s 2024 toromance Kdrama Queen of Tears continues to captivate audiences even months after its finale. The series, starring Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won, was crowned the Best tvN Program of 2024, earning a staggering 160,119 votes from viewers during the network’s 2024 Holiday Party Run with tvN. To celebrate this achievement, tvN has announced a special broadcast dedicated to the beloved drama.

While details of the special episode remain under wraps, fans are abuzz with speculation. Many hope for a reunion of the lead stars, Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won, though their busy schedules might make this unlikely. Others anticipate behind-the-scenes footage or unreleased scenes from the show, which could offer a deeper dive into the lives of Hong Hae-in and Baek Hyun-woo, the drama’s central characters.

One excited fan wrote on social media, “EVERYBODY WAKE UP! A NEW QOT SPECIAL EPISODE IS COMING REAL SOON. I’M CRYING REAL TEARS.” Another speculated, “It could be unreleased clips or maybe even a director’s cut. Whatever it is, we’re ready to cherish it!”
