KBS Morning Drama is a TV slot that aired dramas at 9 am from Monday to Friday at KBS 2TV. Due to poor ratings, the slot was abolished twice, from October 7, 1991, to October 3, 1992, for about one year, and from October 10, 1994, to March 1, 1996, for about one year and four months. On November 4, 2011, it was abolished again after the end of Pit-a-pat, My Love [ko], and TV Novel's Dear My Sister aired on the time slot instead. Following the end of Through the Waves and the TV Novel series, this time slot has been revived again with Lady Cha Dal-rae's Lover airing on 2018, 7 years following the discontinuation. This time slot has been quickly cancelled again and replaced by reruns of KBS1's daily dramas.
