The media outlet cited the failure to coordinate opinions regarding the scheduling of the drama as the reason for their leaving. They also relayed an entertainment official’s statement, saying, “While MBC is negotiating with Disney+, the actors‘ side wanted to be provided with Netflix, which is why there was a difference of opinion.”

Meanwhile, ‘21st Century Grand Prince’s Wife’ is set in the 21st century constitutional monarchy of the Republic of Korea. It is a romance that breaks down social status between a woman who has everything but is merely a commoner and a man who is sad because he is the son of a king but cannot have anything. IU was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and has everything: beauty, intelligence, and a fierce competitive spirit. She is the second son of the number one conglomerate family, Sung Hee-joo. Byun Woo-seok was cast as Prince Ian of the 21st century constitutional monarchy of the Republic of Korea.
