IU and Byeon Woo Seok’s romance in MBC’s Perfect Crown is becoming more intense, but not all viewers are fully convinced by the way some scenes are being filmed.
In episode 5, Grand Prince Ian, played by Byeon Woo Seok, and Seong Hee Joo, played by IU, reached an important emotional moment in their relationship.
During a key scene, Grand Prince Ian held Seong Hee Joo’s hand and told her, “I will fight without holding back, just as you do.” The line showed his growing sincerity and marked a change in their relationship.
However, after the episode aired, some viewers focused less on the romance and more on the direction of the scene.
Several netizens said the full shot made the height difference between IU and Byeon Woo Seok stand out too much, making the moment feel awkward instead of heart fluttering.
Some viewers commented, “The height difference stood out too much, so it felt awkward rather than romantic,” “The direction interrupted the emotions,” “It would have looked better as a close up,” and “The visuals were disappointing.”
Others also questioned the chemistry between the two leads, saying, “Their chemistry is not as strong as expected,” and “Their atmosphere does not seem to match well.”
Still, not all reactions were negative. Some viewers said the story has become more interesting and are curious to see how the romance will continue.
Perfect Crown airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m. on MBC.
