notice how it always came from those shippers..?? aduh gue ogah tbh ngomongin ini karena yang emang bener2 ngikutin dr awal pasti tau biang keroknya tuh siapa. dan shippers2 edan ini bebal banget. gue heran ya, maksudnya kenapa narasi dari mereka itu seolah2 BWS ini dipaksa main jadi Ian? pdhl dia pernah cerita gimana excitednya dia pas nerima script, ceritanya menarik, krn akan kerja bareng iu dsb.
Gini deh, perfect crown tuh buagus dramanya, emang ga saklek ama web novel tapi gue berani kasih ini 9/10. Gue bisa nih nulis essay kenapa ini dramanya sebagus itu. Tapi ntar aja kalo gue udah ga emosi. Bisa diliat dari video2 yang di tiktok aja kualitasnya sebagus itu cokkk. Perkara chemistry jelek, scene dituduh plagiat LR, tingginya mereka jauh banget jadi ga cocok dll, tau ga itu ujung2nya berawal dari siapa? YAAA SHIPPERS GAMON GEJE INI TF. Orang2 diluar fandom tuh ampe notis kok ini shippers lr masih ngehujat aje?? tau dah gue juga bingung.
Kalo lo bikin narasi seakan2 PC tuh aib banget kek gak ngehargain kerja kerasnya dia cok. Kemarin itu pure kesalahan production yang dipelintir sama orang2 gila. Dia yang se-excited itu buat meranin karakter ini tuh harusnya ya lo dukung. Lo ga seneng? Yaudah minggat aja sono gausah bawa2 PC apalagi ngedragging PC dari awal sampe akhir. Kenapa, sesuatu yang lo benci nih malah lo pantengin ampe akhir??? Kalo ini drama emang sejelek itu kata lu, ga bakal dah dapet rating tinggi pas episode terakhir, ga bakal itu dapet top 2 global.
Terutama main leads udah vokal ya mereka dipressure segimananya, dan gue notis di pinggyego dia masih ada ragu pas dipuji meranin karakter pangeran, beruntungnya iu dan jaesuk disitu ngeyakinin dia.
Sebagai casual fan aja gue sampe takjub dan thankful pas di interview elle iu tuh ada bilang kalo berkat BWS yang "dapet" banget pas meranin ian dia jadi ngga susah2 buat immerse ke karakternya. "He really was the Grand Prince Ian himself." Soalnya dia emang sebagus itu main jadi Ian ini.
Gue gapaham ya kalo orang2 rese kaya shippers2 geje ini tuh cara ngefans mereka kayak gimana. Kek mereka tuh cuman bikin BWS ini jadi fantasy mereka. Udah dia lo kata2in tapi juga ntar endingnya masih lo pake nih dia buat lo shipperin. Mana gitu selalu nyerang perempuan2 yang kerja bareng dia lagi. Kata gue ya, lo pada ke psikolog deh. Touch grass, lo keluar, berbaur dah tuh ama makhluk lain. In this economy pake aja tuh bpjs soalnya obatnya mahal.
Iya, aku juga bodo IU dikatain jelek, suaranya b aja, nggak bisa akting. Itu preferensi. Ada juga aktoraktris/penyanyi yang bukan seleraku, cuma aku diam karena nggak guna diumumin.
Tapi kalo IU difitnah/dituduh, wah andai bisa mewakili penjarain orang, udah kupenjarain sih 🥰
Indonesians are so dumb these days. I've been seeing most of the hate posts about IU from them on this app. Anyway, you guys always push these narratives when IU has been working nonstop since she was a teenager. It's not luck at all, it's the result of her hard work. Fvckdumbass
Finally, a voice of sanity. Media Today published a brilliant defense of the drama, and it completely exposes the flaws in the "distortion" narrative.
The show is literally titled 21st Century Grand Prince’s Wife (大군부인). The male lead is a Grand Prince (son of a KING), not an Imperial Prince. The world-building consistently established a modern surviving Kingdom, not an Empire.
Demanding a 12-string imperial crown for a King makes zero internal sense. The 9-string crown and "Cheonse" are completely consistent within the writer’s fictional timeline. It’s a creative AU choice, not a national crisis. Media Today is spot on: weaponizing "historical distortion" to cancel art is total overkill. 👑📰

Happy 33rd birthday to the legendary IU.
The singer-songwriter and actress has built an undeniable legacy through her expansive discography and acclaimed acting roles. Dubbed the “Queen of K-Pop and K-Drama” by numerous outlets, she became one of the few entertainers to win Daesangs in both music and acting. She holds the record for the most number-one songs and the most weeks at number one on the K-Pop Hot 100 and has achieved a “Perfect All-Kill” with 21 songs across South Korea’s biggest streaming platforms — the most for any artist ever. She was named the most influential person of 2025 by Forbes Korea and was recognized by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest singers of all time.
Hot topic on Instiz about how respected IU is within the industry and why every new project of hers becomes highly anticipated.

you guys can keep tweeting your bullshxt, but perfect crown would not have the ratings & popularity rankings it has if IU & BWS couldn't act and if they didn't have chemistry.
like no amount of shady tweets is gonna change that fact. but have fun looking insecure af.
a thread of times when #perfectcrown lowkey ate with its ost placement-
-will forever remember this episode 1 epilogue, the beautiful nakhwa nori lights, the lovely ost while wanseong staring at each other without even blinking😭
