On April 22, Byeon Woo Seok and IU appeared together on the YouTube show Yoo In Radio, hosted by Yoo In Na. During the episode, Yoo In Na pointed out that this marked their first reunion in 10 years.
The two previously worked together in the 2016 drama Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo, and are now reuniting in the upcoming MBC series Perfect Crown.
IU reflected on the coincidence, saying, “It’s amazing how fate works,” while Byeon Woo Seok echoed her sentiment, describing the reunion as something that felt equally surreal.
Looking back on their first collaboration, Byeon Woo Seok opened up about a scene that stayed with him over the years.
“I was really thankful, but also really sorry,” he admitted. At the time, he played IU’s unfaithful boyfriend and had to perform a scene where he pushed her during an argument.
Because he was still inexperienced, he worried about how the scene turned out: “I tried to be careful, but IU is so slender. I didn’t think I pushed her that hard, but she fell more than I expected. I remember feeling really bad about it.”
IU responded with understanding and reassurance, recalling the moment with a lighter perspective: “You pushed me quite decisively, but you immediately helped me back up,” she said with a smile.
She also noted that back then, their screen time together was limited: “We didn’t have many scenes together. The only happy moment was taking prop photos, and then we had to film that intense scene right away.”
This time, things are different. With their upcoming drama, IU expressed excitement about finally having the chance to work together more closely: “I’m really happy we can act together over a longer period now.”
Their reunion not only highlights how far both actors have come in their careers but also adds emotional depth to their on-screen chemistry.
