PERFECT CROWN MENTIONED IN US FINANCIAL RESEARCH!
Why is this significant?
Established US investment research firm Zacks, whose analysis is distributed through Nasdaq and Yahoo Finance, cited Perfect Crown among Disney+’s international successes in an article examining Disney’s competition with Netflix and Amazon.
This isn’t a fan poll, K-drama ranking or entertainment review. It��s financial analysis aimed at investors.
A Korean drama is being referenced as an example of Disney’s international business strength.
That’s recognition beyond the K-drama bubble, in the world of US finance.

I genuinely believe IU is one of the most talented Korean celebrities EVER, and I don't think people talk enough about how special this woman is. 😩❤️
She's a singer, songwriter, and actress, and she's incredibly good at ALL THREE. Her voice has this warmth that makes you feel every word she sings. She writes many of her own lyrics, and you can tell her music comes from a personal place.
And her acting? Please! 🤧
From My Mister to Hotel Del Luna and When Life Gives You Tangerines, this woman keeps proving that she's so much more than an idol who decided to act.
But what makes me admire her even more is her backstory. IU grew up struggling financially, experienced rejection during her early auditions, and debuted at just 15 years old. She didn't become a superstar overnight. She worked her way up from a difficult childhood to becoming one of Korea's most beloved entertainers.
Kids, teenagers, adults, and even older people know and love her music. How many artists can connect with that many generations?
Sometimes I look at IU and think, this woman really has EVERYTHING. The talent, the versatility, the longevity, and a story that makes you root for her even more.
IU isn't just a celebrity. She's a whole cultural icon. And honestly, I don't know if Korea will ever have another IU. 💯
13 years ago today, IU released her third studio album Modern Times, led by the hit single “The Red Shoes.”
The album showcased a more mature side of her artistry and topped the Gaon Album Chart.
