MBC QueeN was a South Korean non-'free-to-air' television network, which aired programming aimed at women. The channel's slogan was What Women Want.
The channel broadcast beauty, fashion, entertainment and drama content. The channel's launch personality was Kim Nam-joo; the goal was to make the channel "the queen of women's channels".{{cite news |title=김남주, 여성채널 MBC퀸의 얼굴로 발탁 |url=https://www.mk.co.kr/news/all/5421325 |work=Maeil Business Daily |date=January 22, 2013 |language=ko}}
In February 2016, MBC announced the replacement of the channel with a new sports channel, coming in after MBC Plus bought rights to air MLB matches due to the increasing number of Korean players in the league.{{cite news |title=MBC퀸, MLB 대거 진출 따라 스포츠채널 변경 추진 |url=https://www.mk.co.kr/economy/view/2016/104266/ |work=Maeil Business Daily |date=February 5, 2016 |language=ko}}
