Singer and actress IU expressed her gratitude by acknowledging the gifts from Byun Woo-seok's fans.
On the 12th, IU posted on Instagram, "Thank you for the bread bouquet, fruit cake, and the letter you wrote. I will do my best," along with a photo.
The photo included the gifts she received, such as bread and fruit. The snacks had a message from Byun Woo-seok's fans that read, "I look forward to the fantastic chemistry. 'IU' is in the sweet fruit," which caught attention. IU conveyed her gratitude by making a heart gesture with one hand.
IU is currently filming the MBC Friday-Saturday drama '21st Century Great Lady' (written by Yoo Ah-in, directed by Park Jun-hwa) with Byun Woo-seok.
'21st Century Great Lady' is set in a constitutional monarchy in 21st century South Korea. It depicts the romance between a woman, Seong Hee-joo (played by IU), who is frustrated as she is a commoner despite being a wealthy heiress, and a man, Lee An-dae-gun (played by Byun Woo-seok), who is the king's son but can possess nothing, leading to a sad love story. It is scheduled to air in 2026.
