Bahkan sekarang muncul petisi resmi di situs Majelis Nasional Korea yang meminta dramanya dihentikan dan kontennya dihapus dari platform OTT. Penulis petisi menilai meskipun dramanya berlatar Korea fiksi, produksinya tetap dianggap sembarangan memakai pakaian, tata krama, dan istilah ala Tiongkok sehingga dinilai melakukan distorsi sejarah dan budaya. Mereka juga menuduh drama ini bisa jadi celah buat narasi Northeast Project/Tiongkok mengklaim budaya Korea. Tim produksi sebelumnya sudah meminta maaf, mengedit subtitle dan audio, sampai akhirnya menghapus adegan kontroversial tersebut. IU dan Byeon Wooseok juga ikut mengunggah surat permintaan maaf tulisan tangan. Namun kontroversinya belum mereda. Per 23 Mei sore, petisi tersebut sudah ditandatangani hampir 15 ribu orang dan akan dibahas resmi di parlemen Korea jika mencapai 50 ribu tanda tangan dalam 30 hari. m.entertain.naver.com/now/article/00…

SCOOP : National Assembly petition demands cancellation of MBC's #PerfectCrown amid escalating historical distortion controversy. MBC drama Perfect Crown continues to face explosive backlash in South Korea, with the controversy now reaching the National Assembly after a public petition demanding the cancellation of the series emerged online. The petition, titled “Request for the Suspension of Broadcasting and Removal of Content Due to Historical Distortion and Northeast Project Controversies,” was posted on the National Assembly’s public petition board on May 22 and had already surpassed 14,900 signatures by the afternoon of May 23. The petitioner accused the drama of heavily borrowing Chinese-style royal attire, etiquette, and terminology while presenting them within a Korean setting, calling it “cultural appropriation” and “historical distortion.” The complaint further argued that the series harms Korea’s cultural identity globally through OTT distribution and provides justification for China’s controversial “Northeast Project” claims. The controversy intensified following Episode 11’s coronation scene, where Grand Prince Lee An appeared wearing the “Goryu Myeonryugwan” while subjects shouted “Cheonse.” Critics pointed out that both the ceremonial attire and terminology are historically linked to vassal states under imperial China, sparking accusations that the drama distorted Korean royal history. As criticism mounted, the production team first muted the controversial audio and modified subtitles across reruns, VOD, and OTT platforms before eventually deleting the coronation scene entirely. Lead stars IU and Byun Woo-seok posted handwritten apology letters, while director Park Joon-hwa and writer Yoo Ji-won publicly admitted oversight and apologized for the controversy. However, public outrage continues to grow. Attention has now shifted toward government-backed funding after reports revealed that the drama received financial support from the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA). Discussions regarding recovery of the funds have also surfaced, with reports stating the production may be required to return the full funding amount along with accrued interest if the project fails its official evaluation review. Set against the backdrop of a fictional constitutional monarchy, Perfect Crown followed the romance between wealthy heiress Sung Hee-joo and Grand Prince Lee An. Despite massive anticipation before release due to the casting of IU and Byun Woo-seok, the drama remained surrounded by criticism throughout its run over acting debates and repeated accusations of historical inaccuracies. #HallyuForums #Hallyu #KDrama
