Actor Byun Woo-seok confessed that no one recognized him after sharing his experience of riding the KTX. IU, who is working alongside him, was surprised to hear that no one had recognized Byun Woo-seok.
On the 21st, a video featuring Byun Woo-seok was released on the official YouTube channel of his agency, Baro Entertainment, under the title "If you wield a 'hoppe'... Prince Lee An will appear."
The video shows Byun Woo-seok boarding the KTX to film the MBC Friday-Saturday drama "21st Century Grand Duchess." He traveled inside the KTX without wearing a mask. He enjoyed snacks like night bread, watched "Hyu Daejeon-hwa," and took a nap to catch up on lost sleep, moving around leisurely.

Later, IU met Byun Woo-seok at the filming site and asked if no one recognized him on the train. Byun Woo-seok replied, "No one did. Isn't everyone busy? If you keep your head down, people won't notice." IU then asked, "But didn't anyone recognize you at the station?" The video also showed Byun Woo-seok, dressed simply with a hat and no mask, enjoying his train ride by eating snacks and watching "Hyu Daejeon-hwa."
When IU met Byun Woo-seok at the filming site and asked if no one recognized him on the train, he firmly replied, "No one did," drawing attention. He added, "Isn't everyone busy eating and sleeping? If you keep your head down, people won't notice. Everyone is too busy living."
IU then asked, "Didn't anyone recognize you at the station?" and jokingly added, "Even with such a long neck?" This prompted laughter. A subtitle also appeared saying, "We are looking for anyone who spotted Byun Girin near the station," further amusing viewers.

Meanwhile, "21st Century Grand Duchess" is a drama depicting the fate of a woman who is a chaebol with everything but a commoner status, and a man who is the king's son but can possess nothing, set in a 21st-century constitutional monarchy in South Korea. It explores a romance that breaks through social class barriers.
