IU even remarked on the post that anytime the king appears, the performance goes well, citing his role as Prince Wang-so in their last drama.
Notably, Joon-gi and IU appeared together in a 2016 drama, Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo. IU played the role of a 21st-century girl named Go Ha-jin and Joon-gi played the role of Prince Wang-so from the year 941.
Additionally, IU and Bo-gum are all set to star in a highly-anticipated upcoming K-drama, When Life Gives You Tangerines.
Meanwhile, Joon-gi is regarded as one of the K-pop culture’s most prominent performers, having played noteworthy parts in Flower of Evil, Arang and the Magistrate, Iljimae, Arthdal Chronicles, Lawless Lawyer, and other dramas. His parts in the television series My Girl and the 2005 film The King and the Clown helped him become popular. Joon-gi last appeared in Arthdal Chronicles season 2, where he played twins.
On the other hand, in January, IU revealed the dates and venues for her 2024 world tour, H.E.R., which began at KSPO DOME in Seoul on March 2 and 3, followed by shows on March 9 and 10.
