IU Shares Hilarious Anecdotes About Co-Star Byeon Woo-seok

IU, born in 1993, shared a humorous story about her co-star, actor Byeon Woo-seok, born in 1991.

On the 13th, IU and Byeon Woo-seok appeared on the YouTube channel 'Elle Korea' to discuss their roles in the MBC drama '21st Century Grand Duchess'. During the video, they took turns highlighting each other's strengths.

IU noted, "Byeon Woo-seok is very sensitive to the cold, has impressive arm muscles, loves tteokbokki, and prefers his hair down." In response, Byeon Woo-seok complimented IU by saying, "IU is also sensitive to the cold but less so than me. She loves bread and has cute hands and feet." IU humorously expressed her grievance, "He keeps saying my feet are ugly during filming." Byeon Woo-seok retorted with a laugh, "I never paid attention to her feet, but she suddenly says, 'You just looked at my feet, didn't you?' which makes me look."

Adding more anecdotes about Byeon Woo-seok, IU mentioned his towering height of 190cm, saying, "He's so tall that sometimes I asked him to just wear socks when he came in with shoes that have heels."

IU also shared that Byeon Woo-seok kindly switched to flat shoes, saying, "It was as if there was no sole at all." She added, "His face is small, but when he lets his bangs down, it makes him look even more annoyingly handsome. There are days when he wears heels and lets his bangs down." Byeon Woo-seok humorously responded, "Those are usually the days I left work early the day before," adding to the laughter.
