South Korea’s giant broadcasting platform tvN has officially delayed the release date of the “Queen of Tears”Kdrama starring Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won. After months of hype and massive anticipation, why did tvN push back “Queen of Tears” Kdrama release date? Explore the following discussion to understand the comprehensive reasons behind the delay.
tvN Postponed Release Date of “Queen of Tears”Kdrama Starring Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won
“Queen of Tears” Kdrama starring Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won has been one of the most anticipated projects this year.
Since its first announcement, revealing that the two actors would be starring as the main couple of a Kdrama by “Crash Landing on You” and “Legend of the Blue Sea” writer Park Ji Eun, fans have been wondering about the kind of chemistry and dynamic Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won will portray. This anticipation intensifies as these two brilliant artists will portray a married couple in the new Kdrama
Along with Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won, “Queen of Tears” Kdrama has also featured a more star-studded cast, including actors Kwak Dong Yeon, Lee Joo Bin, Park Sung Hoon, Jung Jin Young, Kim Kap Soo, Lee Mi Sook, and Na Young Hee. These dazzling names of top-tier actors resulted in even more impatience regarding the “Queen of Tears” Kdrama release date.
Unfortunately, fans must face huge disappointment as tvN has officially delayed the release date of “Queen of Tears” Kdrama.
On July 13, Star News exclusively reported that tvN had canceled this year’s release date for “Queen of Tears”Kdrama. This exciting project has failed to air in the second half of this year, a release date that tvN had promised before.
The REAL Reasons tvN Postpone the Kdrama Release Date: an Unfair Delay?
So, why did the Kdrama’s release date get delayed? While many factors may have contributed to the decisions, the main reason was because of a change in tvN’s lineup drama schedule.
Previously, tvN and Studio Dragon announced that the release date of “Queen of Tears” Kdrama starring Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won would be around the second half of this year.
In February, both the production house and the broadcasting company announced their full cast lineup and approximate air date. Both companies even revealed “Queen of Tears” Kdrama as one of the most anticipated releases in their 2023 drama lineup. Star News even reported that this wonderful project was supposed to air in December after “Diva of the Deserted Island” as tvN’s Saturday – Sunday drama.
However, everything has now changed as tvN has totally modified the lineup projects for its Saturday – Sunday schedule. Instead of airing “Queen of Tears” Kdrama, tvN had decided to broadcast “Maestra”, a new drama starring Lee Young Ae.
As the broadcasting company prioritized the release of “Maestra”, “Queen of Tears” Kdrama unavoidably faces a delay in its release date.
Instead of airing this year, the “Queen of Tears” Kdrama release date has now been pushed back to next year (2024). As for the exact date of the broadcast, the company is still discussing the details.
As a result, here’s the official lineup for tvN’s Saturday – Sunday drama release date in the second half of 2023:
- “The Uncanny Counter 2” on July 29.
- “Arthdal Chronicles Season 2: the Sword of Aramoon” in September.
- “Diva of the Deserted Island” in October.
- “Maestra” in December.
“Maestra” is a musical mystery drama starring Lee Young Ae, Lee Moo Saeng, Kim Young Jae, and Hwang Bo Reum. It is a remake of a French TV series, “Philharmonia,” aired in 2019.
While some fans may find the delay slightly unfair, no official reason is available why tvN must push back the “Queen of Tears” release date for “Maestra”.
The Massive Excitement of Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won as Official Married Couple
Finally, the release date delay for Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won’s new drama has only fueled fans’ excitement.
Although disappointment is on the table, the delay has given fans more time to build even higher expectations of the drama. That is especially knowing Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won will become a married couple under the creative story design of prominent writer Park Ji Eun.
