The X user highlighted the 'view' outside the palace where Prince Shin and his wife Shin Chaekyung, played by Joo Ji Hoon and Yoon Eun Hye, reside.

Instead of using CGI, the team of PRINCESS HOURS preferred to use a photo printed in a jumbo size for that outside view.

Interestingly, many viewers at that time didn't realize that what they were seeing was an image. It seems that even now, if it hadn't gone viral, many might still be unaware of this.

Princess Hours itself is a Korean drama set in an alternate world where Korea is still a constitutional monarchy. The story centers around Chae-kyung, an ordinary high school student who suddenly has to marry Crown Prince Lee Shin due to an old promise between their families.

This marriage was initially full of awkwardness because they did not love each other, compounded by the presence of Shin's cousin, Lee Yul, who secretly harbored feelings for Chae-kyung. Over time, the relationship between Chae-kyung and Shin slowly evolved from a contract marriage into genuine love.
