Adding rows in dataframe if they don't exist in another dataframe pandas

Basically, I have 2 dataframes, df1 & df2, in df1 I have 5 weeks alone.

In df2 I have the same column of year/week with a product column.

So if one of those rows in df2 is not in df1, I'm looking for adding the product in that respectively year/week.

df1:
+----+-------------+
|    | year/week   |
+====+=============+
|  0 | 2022/01     |
+----+-------------+
|  1 | 2022/02     |
+----+-------------+
|  2 | 2022/03     |
+----+-------------+
|  3 | 2022/04     |
+----+-------------+
|  4 | 2022/05     |
+----+-------------+

df2:
+----+-------------+-----------+
|    | year/week   | product   |
+====+=============+===========+
|  0 | 2022/01     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  1 | 2022/02     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  2 | 2022/01     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  3 | 2022/04     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  4 | 2022/05     | C         |
+----+-------------+-----------+

this is the expected output that I want to obtain, is there is a pythonic way to obtain this?

+----+-------------+-----------+
|    | year/week   | product   |
+====+=============+===========+
|  0 | 2022/01     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  1 | 2022/02     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  2 | 2022/03     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  3 | 2022/04     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  4 | 2022/05     | A         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  5 | 2022/01     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  6 | 2022/02     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  7 | 2022/03     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  8 | 2022/04     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
|  9 | 2022/05     | B         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
| 10 | 2022/01     | C         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
| 11 | 2022/02     | C         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
| 12 | 2022/03     | C         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
| 13 | 2022/04     | C         |
+----+-------------+-----------+
| 14 | 2022/05     | C         |
+----+-------------+-----------+

You could create a Cartesian product from the "year/week" column in df1 and the unique "products" in df2 and convert it into a DataFrame. You can omit sort_values if you don't particularly care about the order.

out = (pd.MultiIndex.from_product([df1['year/week'], df2['product'].unique()], 
                                 names=['year/week','product']).to_frame()
       .reset_index(drop=True).sort_values(by='product', ignore_index=True))

Output:

   year/week product
0    2022/01       A
1    2022/02       A
2    2022/03       A
3    2022/04       A
4    2022/05       A
5    2022/01       B
6    2022/02       B
7    2022/03       B
8    2022/04       B
9    2022/05       B
10   2022/01       C
11   2022/02       C
12   2022/03       C
13   2022/04       C
14   2022/05       C
