Byun Woo Seok is a Broody Prince in New Stills for MBC K-drama Perfect Crown

I have a confession, I’ve never finished watching Lovely Runner lol. I liked the first two episodes, but life got busy and I put it aside and never got back to it even after it became a breakout hit. That means I still don’t personally understand the meteoric rise of Byun Woo Seok but it’s a double edged sword for him as his next drama after LR would be under even more expectation. That drama will be the MBC series Perfect Crown with IU where he plays the fictional modern day prince of the still present monarchy in South Korea. He’s a prince with the prestige of royalty but no real power and finds himself basically the purchased groom of IU’s fabulously wealthy chaebol heiress. The latest new stills are of his character in various sumptuous wealthy person attire and he looks good enough but so far I’m not feeling any charismatic vibe as the stills are rather two-dimensional in energy.
