 I think I might be the only person watching *Perfect Crown* who didn't realize that Min Jeong-Woo was the Prime Minister. I won't lie: the first two episodes of the series were, without a doubt, a bit dry; we didn't really get much information about the prince, other than the fact that there was a fire and that his sister-in-law isn't exactly thrilled that he's still alive. The premise is simple: these two individuals—neither of whom has ever been accepted on their own merits—end up falling for one another after forming a fake alliance for their mutual benefit.  It’s sweet and all that, but the first two episodes felt a bit disjointed, as they came across as neither serious nor comedic. However, I cannot deny that IU and Byeon Woo-Seok share fantastic chemistry, and that is precisely why we see such a marked improvement in episodes 3 and 4, which dive headfirst—and full steam ahead—into the fun, comedic side of the plot. I just hope this momentum doesn't fizzle...
