'Perfect Crown' actress IU tearfully confessed her long-hidden feelings for Byeon Woo-seok, bringing an end to the 'showroom romance' that began as a contractual relationship.
In the episode that aired on the 8th on MBC 'Perfect Crown', Seong Hee-joo (played by IU) and Grand Prince Iaan (played by Byeon Woo-seok) faced their greatest crisis after a premarital contract leak.
Seong Hee-joo (played by IU) watched the deeply sleeping Grand Prince Iaan (played by Byeon Woo-seok) and revealed her complicated feelings. Seong Hee-joo frowned as she looked at his sleeping face with pity, then gently pressed his furrowed brow with her finger to smooth it. She then recalled Iaan's earlier worried words to her: "I'm a little afraid my honor might hurt you, junior."
Seong Hee-joo carefully placed her hand on Iaan's arm and softly murmured, "Me too. I'm afraid I might ruin my family," expressing her remorse and deep affection toward the lover who was in danger because of her.
Later, after meeting Min Jeong-woo (played by Noh Sang Hyun), Seong Hee-joo's emotions ultimately exploded. Seong Hee-joo poured out her choked-up feelings, saying, "What am I supposed to do? You should know, oppa. Right now neither the company nor the royal family is okay, and there's nothing I can do." She then pleaded desperately for help, saying, "So tell me, oppa. What should I do?"
But when Min Jeong-woo simply comforted her to stay still, Seong Hee-joo raised her voice and protested, "Who told you to protect me?" When Min Jeong-woo hit the nerve, saying, "You don't even feel like deceiving anyone anymore. You said it was a showroom. Yourself and the family," Seong Hee-joo answered without hesitation, "I don't think so."
When asked, "What makes you think it's not?" Seong Hee-joo confessed, "I like him. That person. Very much," and her eyes reddened.
