However, a recent wave of criticism has been directed at another aspect of the actor’s performance on the show: his physical acting. In a recently viral post on Theqoo, a netizen pointed out a particular scene in Perfect Crown in which Byeon’s character was seen practicing archery. Though his character is supposed to be good with bows and arrows, everything about the actor’s portrayal—from his posture to how he held the equipment to how he shot the arrow—seemed extremely awkward.
