A clip of IU from her recent Shanghai concert has gone viral online after the artist was hit in the face by a water bottle thrown by a fan.
The incident occurred on November 8th while in Shanghai where IU was performing a concert.
During one of the breaks, IU began speaking to her audience and asked her fans if they could hand her a water bottle. In one video, one fan from her right attempted to throw IU a water bottle but came up short on the throw which prompted the singer to ask a fan near the front if they could reach it and hand it to her. But just seconds after, another water bottle is seen hitting IU in the face, thrown from her left.
IU, though surprised, simply laughs it off while slightly nursing her cheek, commenting that it was the first time she has ever gotten hit in the face by a bottle.
On November 27th, a netizen on online community board Pann uploaded a .gif version of the incident, which has received many dislikes for the obvious trolling by the original poster.

[+299, -60] I may hate IU but people who make gifs like that are the devils of Internet
[+242, -55] Are you a psycho? (to the original poster)
[+227, -57] Wow I don’t like IU but this gives me chills. It makes it feel like she’s getting hit constantly….who made this . It’s not like she got hit by an anti either, it was an accident.
[+165, -9] 관It wasn’t a staff member who threw the water bottle but a fan. IU asked for water on stage and reached out to ask for a bottle and a fan threw a bottle to her wanting her to take the water but IU did not see it and got hit. It was not on purpose, the fan cried alot and apologized.

An affiliate of Loen Tree told Newsen on February 3, “The reports claiming that IU’s album will be released in April are not true. It’s too early to discuss the comeback date.”
The affiliate added, “The usual sequence of making a comeback involves deciding on the artist’s concept and collecting the songs. But IU’s songs or concept have not been decided on.”
IU released the remake album A Flower Bookmark in May of 2014 and has been carrying out her schedules of filming commercials.

Recently, Unionbay released a set of photos of the pair getting close and comfortable with each other while they modeled apparel from the casual clothing brand. The stars wore jeans of every shade and even a few bright colored shirts and jackets. The well known celebrity friends recommended each other for the modeling gig, and now they are both reaping the rewards.
IU and Hyun Woo even admitted that they would like to work together if a good project comes their way.
I don't know about you, but I'm wholeheartedly rooting for these two to date. They are adorable together! The young stars, who are both 21 years old, are already good friends, so love should naturally come next.
