Kakao Entertainment announced on the 11th that Lee Byung-wook, who directly participated in the project, will officially release the final OST for the MBC Friday-Saturday drama '21st Century Grand Duchess' on the 15th.

This track was a 'hidden card' not included in the previously released '21st Century Grand Duchess' OST lineup, making a surprise appearance via a trailer immediately after the broadcast on the 9th, surprising viewers. As the mutual feelings between Seong Hee-ju (played by IU) and Prince Lee An (played by Lee Byung-wook) deepen amidst rumors and speculation, the two find themselves in an unprecedented crisis. Lee Byung-wook's vocals are added to this narrative, leaving a deep lingering impression and a powerful impact despite its short length.

It also draws attention for Lee Byung-wook, who has led the work's narrative alongside IU, directly participating in the OST. Playing Prince Lee An, a sad man who is the king's son but can possess nothing, Lee Byung-wook has received praise as a 'master of melodrama' for his beautiful romantic chemistry with IU, who plays Seong Hee-ju.

Furthermore, he captivates global viewers by convincingly portraying a character who changes fate to protect loved ones. In particular, Lee Byung-wook previously swept domestic and international music charts with the '21st Century Grand Duchess' OST 'Downpour'. Through this highly anticipated '21st Century Grand Duchess' OST, which has already garnered intense interest prior to its official release, he is expected to expand the emotional arc of 'Prince Lee An' accumulated throughout the work into music, further elevating the romantic mood.

'21st Century Grand Duchess' is a romance about breaking through fate and overcoming social status, set in a fictional South Korea with a 21st-century constitutional monarchy. With a newly recreated worldview blending tradition and modernity and the passionate performances of the cast, the drama has won the hearts of viewers, continuing its box office success by ranking first in domestic same-time slot ratings and topping the Disney+ TOP 10 TV Shows (non-English) global chart.
