Soloist and actress IU flew to Milan to shoot her photos for W. Korea, of which she candidly answered several questions given to her.
IU is the face of W. Korea magazine for its April Issue, wherein she sported spring-themed Gucci collection. It was also a great opportunity for her to have the set of the photo session in one of the historical recording studios of the place. Aside from that, she also replied to some random questions asked.
Question: How are you feeling today?
IU: Today's theme is unique and the outfits are, as well.
Question: Do you have any tips to get rid of bloating?
IU: When I need to get rid of the body and face bloating, I massage here and there like under the earlobe. Health center? LOL Health magazine? LOL Seriously, here too (pressing the portion between her thumb and point fingers.) Not just only for the stomach heaviness, isn't it? Am I the only one who knows this thing? I heard it is really good massaging this part here like this (making a massage). Especially when I am filming a TV series, it sometimes lasts for a couple of days and nights that I usually could not get proper sleep. So, I often get bloated especially when I am too tired as well. Then I massage here until I feel the pain. Once I massaged these areas, I feel relief.
Question: What does a recording studio, mean to IU?
IU: The most comfortable place for me. I actually prefer much to be inside the studio, rather than being on stage. Of all the phases a musician undergoes, being inside the recording studio is my favorite. I love to try many things inside of it. Being inside the historical recording location in Milan, I am grateful for the experience.
Question: You recently finished your tour, right? How are you doing so far?
IU: I have been filming a lot of commercials. Almost like every day. I was not able to rest for many days. So, it was a good way to start the year, a bit of a twist.
Question: What do you usually do while at home?
IU: Nothing special. I don't really do any productive stuff at home. I usually lie down and order food for delivery. I think eating is what I enjoy in a day.
Question: What do you usually order?
IU: Do you mean delivery food? Every day is different. Because it is the only source of my joy daily.
Question: Which food do you order?
IU: One day for Korean, Another day for Chinese, Western or anything, you know what I mean. Pizza and hamburger.
There were moments when IU felt awkward answering some questions, but she enjoyed replying to all those random questions overall. Apart from this, she also mentioned something that signifies how thoughtful she is as a boss to her staff. She said that she is never fond of having photoshoots overseas or simply going overseas, but coming to Milan is something that her makeup and stylist would love and she felt that everyone will have a great time while they are abroad.
