Actor Noh Sang Hyun is currently deliberating joining the cast of the upcoming MBC drama '21st Century Grand Prince's Wife,' as reported by Xportsnews on April 4th. The drama is set in a modern-day South Korea with a constitutional monarchy and revolves around a woman from a wealthy family who feels constrained by her commoner status and a man who is the king’s son but lacks materially, exploring a heartfelt love story that challenges societal barriers. IU and Byeon Woo Seok were revealed to be part of the drama last December.

Rumors circulated recently about IU and Byeon Woo Seok possibly leaving the project due to disagreements with the channel, but both actors have confirmed their commitment to the drama, refuting the speculations through their agencies. In a recent interview regarding Netflix's 'When Life Gives You Tangerines,' IU expressed her surprise at the rumors, highlighting the unpredictability of the entertainment industry dynamics.

Despite the gossip, the production team for '21st Century Grand Prince's Wife' is progressing with arrangements. Noh Sang Hyun, known for his roles in Apple TV’s 'Pachinko' and films like 'Love in the Big City' and Netflix’s 'Genie, Make A Wish,' is being considered for a significant role in the drama, enhancing the cast lineup.

The drama, produced by Kakao Entertainment and scheduled to broadcast on MBC in the latter part of the year, has heightened anticipation with IU's success in 'When Life Gives You Tangerines,' Byeon Woo Seok's popularity from 'Lovely Runner,' and the potential addition of Noh Sang Hyun.

Byun Woo Seok also recently shared captivating travel photos from Italy.
