This year's Asian Television Awards, widely regarded as one of the most prestigious award ceremonies in Asia, featured a plethora of outstanding, representative titles that have garnered significant praise from both global and domestic fans.

Nevertheless, as one of the most prominent K-Dramas that has provoked an unprecedented number of cultural syndromes, Queen of Tears successfully acquired the title of Best Scriptwriting.

Queen of Tears also has been named the title with the highest household-based viewership in tvN history, with its final episode recording 24.9%, which is followed by Crash Landing on You and Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, respectively.

Regarding this achievement, Sebastian Kim, VP of CJ ENM’s International Content Business Department, stated, “We are genuinely grateful for the acknowledgement Queen of Tears has received at this year’s Asian Television Awards.
