While tvN released an ID video commemorating its 20th anniversary, the drama "Queen of Tears," in which actor Kim Soo-hyun played the lead role, is drawing attention as it was excluded from the video.

Recently, a video titled "[2026 tvN ID] tvN in Pleasure" was posted on the tvN drama YouTube channel.

In addition, the video's view column reads, "Our 20th year, the countless joys we've had together in that time. Please look forward to the 20th anniversary of tvN, which will become more enjoyable in 2026!' was also posted.

The video included tvN's topical dramas "Guardian," "Bounce with Sunjae on your back," "Reply 1997," "Wise Medical Life" series, "Chef of a Tyrant," and entertainment show "You Quiz on the Block."

However, "Queen of Tears," one of the most popular works, was excluded.

However, one netizen said, "There is no queen of tears who ranks first in ratings?? Does this make sense?" he commented.

In fact, "Queen of Tears," which ended in 2024, is the number one TVN viewer rating with 24.9%.

However, Kim Soo-hyun, who was the main character after the end of her work, has been embroiled in various controversies. Therefore, it seems that "Queen of Tears" starring Kim Soo-hyun was excluded, although she contributed the most to the ratings in the video commemorating the 20th anniversary of tvN.

Meanwhile, Kim Soo-hyun was embroiled in controversy in March last year when YouTube's Horizontal and Vertical Research Institute (hereinafter referred to as Se-yeon) raised suspicions of underage love and privacy with the late Kim Sae-ron through a video.

Kim Soo-hyun held a press conference in person and completely refuted the allegations. In addition, Kim Soo-hyun's side sued the late Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family and Se-yeon on charges of violating the Act on Promotion of Information and Communication Network Utilization and Information Protection (Defamation) and filed a 12 billion won damages lawsuit against Kim Se-yeon's representative and Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family.
