IU and Byeon Woo-seok are already heating up social media with a single teaser. The long-awaited onscreen pairing from the upcoming MBC drama “Good Crown” drew explosive pleasure on Nov. 13, when Disney+ unveiled their first two-shot throughout a worldwide showcase in Hong Kong.
The teaser premiered on the Disney+ Originals Preview occasion, held within the Cinderella Ballroom of the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort. Though the collection just isn’t a Disney+ unique, it grew to become the primary Korean drama ever chosen for the platform’s annual lineup — a transfer observers say displays the rising world demand for Korean storytelling.
When IU and Byeon appeared on display screen, the ballroom erupted into loud cheers and applause. Attendees praised the smooth directing type and the duo’s energetic performances, noting that even a brief preview was sufficient to fill the venue with palpable pleasure.

“Good Crown” is about in an alternate universe Korea that maintains a constitutional monarchy within the trendy period. The story follows a rich chaebol heiress who complains that her authorized standing continues to be that of a commoner and a prince who, regardless of his royal bloodline, feels he has nothing. Their relationship unfolds as a fate-defying romance about breaking boundaries and rewriting destinies.
