Disney+ has announced that the recently released romantic comedy “Perfect Crown” has become the number one most-viewed Korean series on Disney+ globally (based on five days of views).
First premiering on April 10, “Perfect Crown” follows the people’s favorite royal, Grand Prince I-an, as he becomes embroiled in a power struggle with other members of the royal family. With pressure on the prince to wed, he strikes up a marriage of convenience with Hui-ju, the heir to a Korean conglomerate. But as the pair work together to advance their own ends, emotions begin to flare, and things do not go quite as smoothly as planned.
“Perfect Crown” stars IU (“When Life Gives You Tangerines,” “My Mister”) as Hui-ju, the second in line to inherit one of Korea’s biggest conglomerates, and Byeon Woo-seok (“Lovely Runner,” “Strong Girl Nam-soon”) as Grand Prince I-an. The series is directed by Park Joon-hwa (“Alchemy of Souls,” “What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim”) and is written by Yoo Ji-won.
With the first four episodes now available to stream on Disney+, new episodes are released every Friday and Saturday night at 10:20 p.m. (Manila time) through the show’s series finale on May 16.
“Perfect Crown” is the latest Korean title to debut on Disney+. Fans of unmissable Korean storytelling can also look forward to the upcoming releases of “A Shop For Killers” Season 2 and “Made In Korea” Season 2, as well as “Portraits of Delusion” starring Bae Suzy and Kim Seon-ho, “The Remarried Empress” starring Shin Min-a, Ju Ji-hoon, Lee Jong-suk, and Lee Se-young, and a whole host of binge-worthy APAC titles currently streaming on Disney+.
