IU Recalls Time She 'Filed a Complaint' Against SEVENTEEN - What Happened?
On May 30, the K-pop boy group SEVENTEEN appeared as a guest on "IU's Palette," a segment hosted by the female idol on her official YouTube channel.
During the show, the "HOT" singers then revealed the behind-the-scenes story about the waiting room for an awards ceremony.
In the broadcast, IU started by introducing SEVENTEEN and honestly conveyed that although she didn't personally know them, they were familiar faces that she greeted "hello" once in a while.
But SEVENTEEN is a special case. The "LILAC" singer confessed that the group is memorable for her, narrating:
"Did you know we were green room neighbors? (Yes we did) I do remember this one time, most recently at the Golden Disc Awards."
While the SEVENTEEN members agreed in unison while looking tense, apparently because they were in front of a well-respected senior, IU broke the silent atmosphere with laughters by adding:
"I was wondering who was in the next room because it was... too noisy."
Member Boo Seungkwan immediately conveyed an apologetic expression and sympathize with the female idol, saying:
"I'm sure she was stressed by us, I feel like she's toned it down."
While the atmosphere became lighter, IU showed off her friendly personality by "complaining" even more.
"I'm sure it was a boy band. I thought I was at the town market."
Being a large group comprised of 13 members, they surely have a lot of staff members, too. Thus, Seungkwan didn't deny the fact that the noise is uncontrollable sometimes and that a lot of their green room neighbors (next room singers) before actually complained because of the noise.

IU cutely raised her hand and confessed:
"I also filed a complaint... just kidding!"
As she drew waves of laughter, IU went on to clarify that she was not annoyed by it, rather she thought that SEVENTEEN is a team where members have great teamwork. This sentiment was based on the conversation they heard from them.
SEVENTEEN Drops Fourth Studio Album 'Face the Sun'
As the broadcast with IU went on, Hoshi talked about their newly released album and said:
"The title of the album is 'Facing the Sun.' It's the only album in the world that has the greatest influence, the sun, and the ambition to be the best. Woozi wrote the songs."

IU told Woozi, who wrote and composed the entire song, "It must be really hard," and Woozi confessed:
"It's hard. It's been a while since I released a full-length album, so I gave a lot of strength when I worked on it. This time, all of them are group songs and because they put too much energy, almost all of them became candidates for the title song. I remember the company and the members voting a lot."

Meanwhile, SEVENTEEN released its fourth full-length album "Face the Sun" on May 27, which includes its title track "HOT."
As soon as it was dropped, the album sold 1,821,560 copies (based on the Hanteo Chart) in just three days and topped the domestic and foreign music charts, proving its huge popularity.
With this album, SEVENTEEN has already achieved its "sixth consecutive million sales (one million copies of a single album).
