Byeon Wooseok Caught Hugging IU

The third episode of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama 'Prince of the 21st Century' will depict Prince Ian (played by Byeon Woo-seok) confronting Dowager Queen Yoon I-rang (played by Gong Seung-yeon), who is targeting Sung Hee-joo (played by IU).

Dowager Queen Yoon I-rang had been wary of Prince Ian becoming a threat to her son. She had ordered him to marry a woman of her choosing to curb his influence, but her plan was on the verge of failure due to the scandal between Sung Hee-joo and Prince Ian.

The released photos show a tense confrontation between Sung Hee-joo, Prince Ian, and Yoon I-rang. Yoon I-rang glares at the two with eyes full of rage, while Prince Ian stands firm, as if protecting Sung Hee-joo.

Later, Prince Ian is seen directly holding the seemingly unconscious Sung Hee-joo, heightening curiosity. Attention is focused on the reason for the confrontation between Prince Ian and Yoon I-rang, who support the royal family, in front of all the palace staff, and why Sung Hee-joo appeared in the palace in her pajamas.

The scene of Prince Ian (played by Byeon Woo-seok) and the Dowager Queen (played by Gong Seung-yeon) confronting each other, which will put the palace staff on edge, can be seen in the third episode, airing on the 17th at 9:50 PM.
