Netizens claim that IU is definitely copying the way Sulli smiles with photo evidence.

There are many allegations and speculations of idols copying the ways of others such as fashion, singing style and even the way someone acts. But did netizens prove another allegation of a female idol copying the way Sulli smiles?

Originally posted on Pann, netizens claim that IU is copying the way Sulli smiles backed up by photo evidence.

Titled “Irrefutable Evidence of IU Copying Sulli,” here is the direct translation of the post and comments below.

“All of the IU fans are claiming that she had the same smile since the beginning but it is after she got close to Sulli. It is after they hosted ‘Inkigayo’ together.

After 2011, November 20th.
The last photo is gathered by IU fans to ‘prove’ that she has been the same but it is only after November 20th, 2011.

They are close friends so IU could have naturally followed the way she smiled but I’m writing this because so many stubborn IU fans are cussing and providing weird evidence. It isn’t bad if she is copying.

Just admit it and laugh over the fact that they smile alike.”

On November 6, a netizen uploaded a signed petition against IU on a portal site. The goal for the petition is 100,000 signatures and the subject material concerns the recent controversy around IU’s song “Zeze.”

“IU has crossed a line by using lolita themes in her song ‘Zeze,’” the petition reads. It goes on to assert that the controversy started over the album artwork for “Chat-shire,” and that if IU had really meant to sing from a third-party perspective (not as the five-year-old Zeze), he would not have been drawn on the artwork as he was.

“You were well-intentioned but...

“23“, a bonus track from ‘The Producers‘ included on the physical CD purchase of IU‘s latest album, “Chat-Shire“, has come under fire for allegedly illegally sampling Britney Spears‘ song, “Gimme More“.

Britney’s voice saying “keep on rocking” can be heard in IU’s song. This is an issue because the song does not credit Britney Spears and it is unclear whether there was any permission given concerning sampling the track.

Loen Entertainment stated that the composer who arranged the song used the sample from a group of purchased vocal samples and they are working on...

When IU and Chang Kiha made their relationship public, some people may have been not too happy about the news, the unhappiest of them being Loen's stockholders, as the stock price fluctuated vastly from the two's dating news.

When news of their relationship was confirmed on October 8, Loen's stock immediately went into red, the market value of the company decreasing a whopping 126.4 billion KRW (~$110.7 million USD).

Further, compared to the previous closing price of 75,300 KRW (~$66 USD), Loen's stock, which had risen 1,200 KRW (~$1.05 USD) ) to record a price of 76,500 KRW (~$67 USD), plummeted...
