Recently, Byeon Woo-seok posted a photo on his Instagram with the caption "Perfect Crown,"(21세기 대군부인) featuring a shot with IU.
'Perfect Crown' is a new MBC drama set to premiere in the first half of 2026. It is a romance drama set in a constitutional monarchy in 21st century South Korea, focusing on a wealthy woman frustrated by her commoner status and a prince who is sad because he cannot have anything. Previously, IU (as Seong Hee-joo) and Byeon Woo-seok (as Lee An-daegun) showcased their exceptional chemistry as presenters at the '2025 MBC Drama Awards.'
In the photo, the two stand side by side backstage at the awards ceremony, illuminated by starlight-like lighting. Holding cue cards, they exchange glances and smiles, showcasing their natural rapport.
Byeon Woo-seok, in particular, completes a sophisticated silhouette with a deep black suit featuring a waist-accentuating belt detail. His effortlessly styled hair and playful smile highlight his high-level styling even behind the scenes.
Fans responded with comments like "Love you, oppa," "Always supporting you," "So cute," "Fighting," "My favorite actor," and "Both are beautiful and handsome."
Meanwhile, Byeon Woo-seok, born in 1991, is 34 years old. He gained immense popularity last year for his role as Ryu Seon-jae in the tvN drama 'Lovely Runner,' establishing himself as a leading actor. He has since received numerous brand endorsements, reportedly earning around 10 billion KRW (approximately 6.92 million USD) from advertisements.
