[Sportschosun Reporter Lee Ji-hyun] Singer and actress IU is drawing attention after being spotted at a wedding.
On the 14th, actress Kim Tae-yeon's mother posted a photo along with the message, "My Tae-yeon's absolute favorite in the world!!! Meeting IU unnie. We went to a wedding, and my daughter got to stand right next to her and make her wish come true."
In the released photo, IU and Kim Tae-yeon are seen standing side by side as wedding guests. She then added, "IU even paid attention to my child's feelings over such a small gift from Tae-yeon... She kept thanking us until the very end!! Sigh... such a kind person......" She continued, "Tae-yeon and I were both moved several times. Ji-eun, please stay healthy always. May only good things come your way!!!!! I pray that you will always be happy. Truly the best."
IU and Kim Tae-yeon formed a special connection through the Netflix series "When Life Gives You Tangerines," which was released last year. Kim played the younger version of Ae-soon, the character portrayed by IU, leaving a strong impression. Their warm relationship, which continued even after the series, has drawn fans' attention.
That day, IU reportedly did more than just attend as a guest. She also performed a congratulatory song herself. Posts on online communities and social media spread quickly, showing IU singing her hit song "Blueming" for the bride and groom. Dressed neatly in a suit, she took the stage, and after finishing the song, she sent the couple off with a bright smile and a hand heart, blessing their future.
Meanwhile, IU recently apologized over controversy surrounding historical inaccuracies and distortions in the Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) drama "Perfect Crown," which has since ended. As the lead actress, she said, "As the lead actress of the work, I feel deeply sorry that I was unable to show a responsible side and that I caused such great disappointment. My heart is still very heavy."
