The press conference for KBS 2TV drama, 'Producer,' took place on May 11 at The Raum with the four main actors, including IU.
On this day, IU, who plays top singer Cindy, was asked, "Cha Tae Hyun, Gong Hyo Jin, and Kim Soo Hyun are all producers, but you're the only one who's a singer.
"Don't you feel left out?" She replied, "I felt both left out and guilty. They're all originally actors and I was originally a singer, so I think I felt intimidated. No one treats me badly, but I'm feeling like this by myself for no reason."
In relation to getting an offer for her role, she said, "When I heard about the actors they'd cast, I wanted to get my spoon in there," making everyone laugh. Who wouldn't want to join such a star-studded lineup?
She talked more in depth about her character, revealing she was very similar to Cindy. IU said, "We're fascinatingly alike when it comes to venting frustrations on our managers. Even my manager was reading lines with me and said it gave him goosebumps. Everybody has his or her frustrations and irritability. There are times when I'm acting and I think, 'Ah, this is me.'"
Her character, Cindy, is a 10-year ice Princess who became a famous celebrity after training since she was thirteen years old.
The drama will start airing on May 15!

She performed the 7 songs in her remake album for the first time, but also sang her old hits. She even turned into a radio DJ to talk about the stories that her audience had submitted. She talked with the attendees, even giving out gifts personally. SHINee's Jonghyun, ZE:A's Kwanghee, Kim Bum Soo, 2AM's Seulong, Jo Jung Suk, Akdong Musician, Ha Dong Kyun, and CNBLUE's Yonghwa were guests during her series of concerts.
On her last day, IU said, "I can't believe this is the last concert. I was so nervous on the first day. Through these concerts, I felt that I was receiving a lot of love from a lot of people. I was very happy during the performances, and I was able to get one of my top experiences in life."
IU has gifted all of the employees at 'Chamisul'!
She's recently become the model for the soju brand, and an employee recently uploaded a post titled, "I got a gift from IU."
The post read, "She became our company's model, and she gave presents out to all the employees in gratitude. She gave us a Starbucks recycling cup. She's a very sensible lady." An employee from the same company replied to the post and said, "She wrote a message and wrote the names of all the employees, even the part time ones, saying she was thankful she became our company's model."

Belting out "I like you oppa, what should I do" in her hit song, "Good Day," IU quickly rose to the top of the list as the nation's next younger sister and was adored by many uncle fans. However, as she gradually made her way into appearing on variety shows, we were shocked to see that IU was not so child-like as she seemed. For one, IU does not have a cute, high-pitched voice that we all thought she would have. Actually, it's quite deep. And her unexpected comments such as, "When girls are rushing to go out, they sometimes only wash their bangs," shows that she has a hidden tomboy, easy-going, and surprisingly mature personality behind her baby face.
