In '21st Century Grand Duchess', IU and Byun Woo-seok overcome a divorce crisis and confirm their feelings for each other through a kiss.

In the 10th episode of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama '21st Century Grand Duchess', which aired on the 9th, the story of Prince Lee An (played by Byun Woo-seok), who set out to find his place, was depicted.

Seong Hee-ju (played by IU) requested a divorce to protect Prince Lee An, and her older brother Sung Tae-ju (played by Lee Jae-won) held a press conference to explain, "I exaggerated a bit when I said I would protect my younger sister," regarding the marriage contract between Prince Lee An and Seong Hee-ju.

In addition, Prince Lee An requested King Lee Yoon (played by Kim Eun-ho), "Your Majesty, you must return my position to me," and Yoon, in accordance with the late king's (played by Sung Joon) last will, issued an edict of abdication stating, "I intend to abdicate in favor of my uncle, Prince Lee An."

Afterward, Seong Hee-ju worried about Prince Lee An, who had left the palace, and personally set out to find him before the palace gates were closed. Upon finding Prince Lee An, Seong Hee-ju hugged him, saying, "I like you." She then kissed him, explaining, "I asked for a divorce because I liked you and wanted to protect you, so that's why I was angry."

Prince Lee An explained to Seong Hee-ju, "A second edict will be issued soon, and I will refuse it. When an edict of abdication is issued, one must refuse it at least three times as a matter of protocol." Seong Hee-ju asked Prince Lee An, "Didn't you want to protect Your Majesty?" and Prince Lee An replied, "I wanted to protect my nephew, not the king."

Prince Lee An recalled that the late king (played by Sung Joon) had once tried to abdicate, saying, "I hated my older brother. He turned a blind eye when I truly wanted it, only to pass the burden on when it was too late. But I was the one who was late. That's why I wanted to protect my nephew instead of my brother no matter what. Even when my sister-in-law pretended not to know my brother's wishes, or when my nephew said he was scared. I thought I could protect everything if I became king, but then I felt it was just my own greed." Seong Hee-ju encouraged him, saying, "Be greedy. Go all the way. I will be by your side."

Grand Dowager Yoon I-rang (played by Gong Seung-yeon) told Prince Lee An, "Say that you cannot accept it," but Prince Lee An warned, "Your Majesty is being manipulated, so I must stand up now. Considering Your Majesty's filial piety, I will not hold my sister-in-law's crime against her."

Yoon I-rang's past was also revealed. During her school days, Yoon I-rang had harbored feelings for Prince Lee An and had dreams, but she gave up her heart to become the crown princess. Yoon I-rang resented Prince Lee An, asking, "Why don't you give up anything?"

Afterward, Prince Lee An went to the place where Prime Minister Min Jeong-woo (played by Noh Sang-hyun) called him, and shortly after, an explosion and fire suddenly broke out inside the palace. Seong Hee-ju alerted Prince Lee An to the crisis, saying, "Isn't that the throne room? No, don't go."
