IU Shares Behind-the-Scenes Moments with Byeon Woo-seok from '21st Century Grand Prince's Wife'
On the 28th, IU's official YouTube channel '이지금' released a video titled 'I'm Hee-joo from the Waltz Academy | 21st Century Grand Prince's Wife Behind-the-Scenes'.
In the video, IU was asked by a staff member, "When did Seong Hee-joo (played by IU) start having feelings for Grand Prince Ian (played by Byeon Woo-seok)?" She replied, "From episode 3." Referring to the much-talked-about wall kiss scene, she added, "We ended with a kiss in episode 3. Even if she wasn't aware of it, the seeds of affection were sown then."
IU jokingly revealed, "Only when the camera is on? You've never done this before," to which Byeon Woo-seok replied, "That's because it never rained in front of me," causing laughter.
Byeon Woo-seok humorously added, "Didn't you see? I was doing this from afar," further lightening the mood on set.
At the cruise filming location, IU met her fan club 'Uaena'. She expressed her gratitude, saying, "Really? But I felt it. You always smiled brightly whenever we met." In contrast, Byeon Woo-seok joked, "They don't greet me with such a bright smile," eliciting laughter.
Fans showed their support for IU and '21st Century Grand Prince's Wife' with comments like "Living for Hee-joo these days," "Love Seong Hee-joo," and "The chemistry between the Grand Prince and his wife is top-notch."
Meanwhile, the MBC drama '21st Century Grand Prince's Wife', starring IU and Byeon Woo-seok, airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 PM. It achieved the top spot in buzz even before its release, and the recently aired episode 6 recorded its highest viewership rating of 11.2%.
