IU Flaunts New Hairstyle—Here's What People Think

The "LILAC" songstress was dressed in a black sweater, black pants, and a light brown knee-length coat. She accessorized her look with black boots, a Gucci purse, and a black beanie. Though her look was fairly simple, IU's beauty shone.
However, one thing caught people's attention: her new hairstyle!
Previously, IU had long, black hair. However, the idol has changed it completely. Now, IU has light pink hair, cut extremely short. It doesn't even touch her shoulders!
Following the hair reveal, a post titled "IU bleached her hair!" was posted to the online community forums. There, fans gathered together to gush over the idol's new look.
Many believed IU suited her new hairstyle and hoped to see more of it as her black beanie hid parts of her hair from view. Despite her beanie covering up parts of her, people believed the color matched her visuals. A light color like pink has the potential to wash someone out, but it suits IU perfectly!
Some comments read,
"It suits her! I just think the beanie was a mismatch."
"Her hair is pretty, but it would be better if she removed the hat."
"Without the hat, her hair color is pretty, and it totally suits her."
"I freaking love the pink hair on her."
Others, however, were hyped for other reasons. Historically, when an idol unveils a new hair color, it means they are preparing for a comeback! IU's last comeback was in 2021 with "LILAC," meaning it has been nearly three years since IU has dropped new music.
However, in 2023, she revealed she was working on a new album. Now that she has unveiled her new hair color, people believe IU will be dropping new music soon!
Some comments read,
"Something big is coming!"
"Oh, is IU having a comeback?"
"I can't wait for her comeback!"
