IU and Byeon Woo‑seok Apologize as “Perfect Crown” Moves to Fix Coronation Errors

The statements follow a production pledge to correct the coronation scene across future releases.

Overview

  • The show's leads, who posted Instagram letters Monday, said they failed to weigh the history behind the scene and promised greater care in future work.
  • Viewers objected to Episode 11 using the chant “Cheonse” for a thousand-year blessing and a nine‑strand guryumyeongwan crown, both tied to lower‑rank or tributary status rather than full sovereignty.
  • The production team apologized Saturday and said it will revise the audio and subtitles for rebroadcasts, video‑on‑demand, and streaming to address the disputed coronation details.
  • Publisher O’Fanhouse Studio said it is correcting the script book and from Monday is offering revised PDFs and physical correction stickers to first‑edition buyers.
  • Civic group VANK urged Disney+ and Hulu to edit overseas versions, and reports say some domestic streaming edits began while international releases remain under review.
