In 2019, IU attended a fan's graduation ceremony at Gimje Girls' High School after promising the Uaena that she would be there.

Photos of IU arriving at the high school with a huge bouquet of flowers and a present for the fan went viral on social media.

IU also appreciates all the efforts that her fans put into supporting the causes that are close to her heart.


So, in 2017, she decided to join them at a charity event. After the event, IU needed to be elsewhere but she decided to cancel it so that she could eat with Uaenas.

IU also treated her fans with signed photos and handwritten letters from other South Korean personalities.

Previous reports also claimed that IU once gave a fan an Audio-Technica microphone that costs $3,000 after learning that she's also a budding singer.

In 2019, Uaenas held a birthday party for IU even though they thought that she would only be there in spirit. But to everyone's surprise, IU arrived at the event to bond with her fans.

IU is a 28-year-old singer, songwriter, and actress from South Korea.

Her real name is Lee Ji-Eun and her pseudonym, IU stands for "I" and "you" that when put together means that you and I come together because of music.
