The Queen of Office (Korean: 직장의 신; RR: Jikjang-ui Sin; lit. God of the Workplace) is a 2013 South Korean television series starring Kim Hye-soo, Oh Ji-ho, Jung Yu-mi, Lee Hee-joon, Jeon Hye-bin, and Jo Kwon. It aired on KBS2 from April 1 to May 21, 2013, on Mondays and Tuesdays at 22:00 for 16 episodes. Kim later won the Daesang (or "Grand Prize"), the highest honor at the 2013 KBS Drama Awards.

Based on the 2007 Japanese drama Pride of the Temp (ハケンの品格, Haken no Hinkaku), the comedy/drama series uses the modern Korean workplace culture as a backdrop and revolves around charismatic perfect employee Miss Kim, who's good at everything that even her bosses are a little afraid of her. But her life is shrouded in mystery and she always disappears after her three-month temp contract is up.

The early working title was Come Back, Miss Kim (Korean: 돌아와요 미스김; RR: Dorawayo Miseugim).
