Ever since its premiere on March 9, ‘Queen of Tears’ is what all K-Drama enthusiasts have been talking about. The romantic-drama, which features Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won, has entranced audiences and dominated even viewership ratings.

Just weeks ago, the tvN show quickly dethroned the highly-acclaimed show ‘Reply 1988’ and took its place in the third position. Soon after, the show reached the second place, and took over ‘Goblin.’ It was only a matter of time when one would know if the show would overtake the much-loved ‘Crash Landing on You.’

And as announced by tvN, it has. ‘Queen of Tears’ has officially secured the title of the highest-rated K-Drama in tvN’s history, achieving an impressive 23.072% viewership rating from households in the Seoul metropolitan area.

The announcement put out by tvN suggested that Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin’s ‘Crash Landing on You’ is now in the second place with 22.677% viewership ratings. Meanwhile, Gong Yoo, Lee Dong-wook and Kim Go-eun’s ‘Goblin’ has moved to the third place with 21.575% ratings.
