To those haters who wants to ride on that old resolved issue about Zeze. I say, just focus on your faves current project and wish they get more buzz and viewership ratings than Perfect Crown.

🚨 UAENAS ATTENTION 🚨 Uaenas are currently running a mass email and Instagram comment campaign urging EDAM to take stricter legal action against malicious posts/rumors. Please join and help protect IU! You can copy the template and find details here 👇 gofile.io/d/rJ1I8B #IU #아이유

IU: "Even in moments when hatred rises, I hope that in the end, love will prevail. I wish you happiness as you achieve small and big victories every day until we meet again..." - 2024 IU HEREH WORLD TOUR CONCERT ENCORE : THE WINNING #IU #아이유 #LeeJiEun #이지은 #UAENA #kpop

Saw someone said "IU is finally cancelled" 🤣 Are you nuts?! Never will that happen in our lifetime. Keep dreaming. IU will come stronger than ever. ⭐️

After the lead actors, the director and writer have also apologized. The director also made it clear that the historical inaccuracy in Ep. 11 was not intentional and refuted many other claims. Now it’s MBC’s turn. K-uaenas are already calling on MBC to take appropriate action. We believe they will correct any mistakes, refute unreasonable claims, and take legal action against those who are maliciously damaging the IP. That will bring this situation to an end. I also hope international uaenas don’t get too caught up in so-called “knetz” reactions. They are just a biased but vocal minority. The Korean public is not foolish. They won’t support distorting the production team’s intentions, manufacturing controversy, and shifting blame onto the actors. All we need to do is continue loving and supporting our IU as we always have. Let’s hold on just a little longer. #IU #PerfectCrown

"Let’s talk about the forced controversy around the K-drama 21st Century Grand Prince's Wife (Perfect Crown). The show's premise and world-building were announced months ago, and the props were there since Day 1. Why did the outrage suddenly manufacture itself at Episode 11? ​Simple: The finale is airing just two weeks before a major South Korean election. The initial wave of smear campaigns came entirely from far-right accounts overlapping with political agendas. It's a textbook political hit job using national stars like IU and Byeon Woo-seok as collateral damage to whip up nationalist sentiments. ​Furthermore, the critics’ historical arguments make zero sense. In an alternative history where Korea peacefully transitions from the Joseon Dynasty into a modern Constitutional Monarchy, the citizens would be terrified of the royal family trying to reclaim absolute power. ​Upgrading the King to an "Emperor" with 12 tassels and imperial chants (Man-se) would look like a step backward toward a centralized dictatorship. Keeping traditional, non-imperial court protocols (Cheon-se and 9 tassels) shows the monarchy is staying in its lane and respecting democracy. The trolls aren't defending history; they are weaponizing a lazy prop department mistake for political gain. 😭😂💀"

@PhilippineStar @latest_chika Looking back at photos from other dramas, I realized they literally used the same number of beads too. 🙄 Which only makes it more obvious that the toxic netz are just forcing issues because they can’t handle the massive success this K-drama achieved right from day one.

So let me get this straight. Before the director yells action, IU—who is famously and humbly still rocking a basic iPhone 14 with a cracked screen—is supposed to pull out her phone and what? Realize she doesn’t have the latest built-in Gemini AI to magically scan and fact-check props sitting in a completely different palace set?! 😭😂💀 ​The sheer insanity of these toxic, organized political mobs is off the charts. They are literally pausing screens to count beads on Byeon Woo-seok’s crown and tracking props just to force handwritten apologies. ​Since when is it the lead actors' job to act as 24/7 historical research consultants while trying to deliver legendary, emotionally complex performances? That is exactly what the wardrobe department, art directors, and highly paid network consultants are hired to do! ​An actor’s job is to act. IU and Byeon Woo-seok delivered an absolute masterpiece with a historic 13.8% finale. Expecting an artist with an iPhone 14 to pull double duty as a corporate compliance officer for a multi-million dollar television network is peak comedy. Stay mad, trolls! 🛑🤡 ​#PerfectCrown #21世紀大君夫人 #IU #아이유 #ByeonWooSeok #邊佑錫

Hello. This is IU, who played the role of Seong Huiju in Perfect Crown. Over the past few days, I carefully read each and every message left by many viewers. As the lead actress of this production, I feel I failed to show the level of responsibility expected of me and caused great disappointment. For that, I am deeply sorry, and my heart still feels very heavy. Regarding the various historical inaccuracies in the drama that many of you pointed out, I sincerely reflect on and apologize for approaching the role without thinking more deeply about those issues. Because this was a project where it was important to portray imagination rooted in our own history and the traditional beauty of Korea, I should have been much more careful in reading and studying the script as an actress. I am ashamed of myself for failing to do so. I failed to properly recognize the seriousness of these issues beforehand. I am truly sorry. I sincerely thank everyone who stayed with the drama until the end and did not hesitate to share their thoughts. I will always remember the valuable criticism and opinions you have given me, and I will strive to approach my future projects with greater care and responsibility. Once again, I am truly sorry.

I fucking hate this! Should have never done this script. Whole team behind the drama from writer to director everyone is worse. All scrutiny falling on IU🤦🏼‍♂️

of course, the korean general public defends iu because they know she didn't do anything wrong. the ongoing attacks mostly come from antis and politically motivated groups that persistently spread baseless narratives against her.

On this perfect crown matter I get why Koreans are upset over the cultural misrepresentation. K-dramas have a huge global audience now, and historical dramas especially are basically introducing Korean history and culture to international viewers, fiction or not. So if aspects of that culture are misrepresented or mishandled, of course people are going to be offended. If someone did that to my culture, I’d be upset too. What I don’t agree with is people forcing IU and Byeon Woo-seok to apologize. If you hire me for a job, it’s not my responsibility to do the production team’s research for them. My job is to show up and perform the script I was given. The responsibility should fall on MBC, the writers, directors, and production team, not the actors who were simply acting.

Guys 😭😭😭 Someone get the scriptwriter for me 😒 Regarding the Perfect Crown history distortion incident, IU held back tears and gave fans a deep 90 degree bow during her birthday event yesterday while watching the finale. She reportedly said, “It was my own mistake,” with a trembling voice, trying so hard not to cry in front of fans 😭💔( nooooo protect her at all cost ) You could literally feel how heavy the guilt still sits on her shoulders… the atmosphere turned emotional so fast, and fans were comforting her instead 🥺
