12 Years Of IU





IU is a South Korean singer, songwriter, and actress. She is one of the most successful Hallyu celebrities nowadays.  IU just celebrated her 12th anniversary as a celebrity last Thursday, September 18, 2020. IU made her debut as a professional singer and songwriter 12 years ago after performing live on M! Countdown, a South Korean music TV Show. She was only 15 years old at that time. After three years as a singer and songwriter, IU made her debut as an actress as Kim Pil-Suk in a 2011 high school drama- Dream High. In Dream High, IU acted alongside Bae Suzy, Kim Soo Hyun, Ok Taecyeon, and Jang Woo Young.

Besides being successful as a singer, songwriter, and actress, IU is also famous as a role model for young people, beauty and fashion icons, and every guy's dream girl. These three factors make IU an ultimate South Korean sweetheart and goddess. 

So for today's post, I'm going to share with you guys about IU as a role model, beauty and fashion icon, and every guy's dream girl. So let's get started ^_^



IU AS A ROLE MODEL

Besides being adored for her amazing talent, IU is also adored for her clean image and down-to-earth personality. IU's down-to-earth personality also made her lovable to fans, the media, fellow celebrities, and those in the entertainment industry. 

IU is also very kind-hearted and generous. She is known as the Donation Goddess by South Korean media. IU has made a lot of donations and contributed to a lot of charity work since she becomes a celebrity. Last Thursday, September 18, 2020, EDAM Entertainment (IU's agency) stated that IU donated to two organizations under the name IUAENA (IU + UAENA) as a celebration of her 12th anniversary. UAENA is IU's official fan club name. According to EDAM, IU donated 50 million won ($43,000.00) to Snail of Love and another 50 million won to the Korean Unwed Mother's Families Association. Good job, IU. This is the best way to celebrate your anniversary and 12th year of success.

Besides being kind, generous, and humble, IU is also a hard-working and enthusiastic celebrity. For those who are a fan, I'm sure you all know that IU's journey to success wasn't a smooth ride. She had a hard life and grew up in poverty. She was once conned and got rejected during an audition. Plus, she doesn't receive any applause or reaction from audiences during her first live performance on M! Countdown. But that doesn't stop IU from achieving her dreams. She just keeps on swimming. IU's hard work and enthusiasm made her the queen she is today.

I believe IU's hard work, enthusiasm, kindness, and down-to-earth personality are her keys to success. As a fan, these are the most valuable lessons I learned from admiring IU. 




IU AS A BEAUTY AND FASHION ICON

IU is one of the female celebrities with perfect visuals. She is extremely beautiful. Her beauty is like a fairy tale. She looks like Snow White. IU has smooth snowy fair skin, wavy dark hair, cherry lips, a petite figure, innocent and adorable smile. Most Asian girls nowadays wish to look like IU (including me :P).

IU's beauty makes her the no.1 commercial queen in South Korea. According to koreaboo.com, IU is now the female celebrity with the most endorsement surpassing Bae Suzy, Im Yoona, and Irene Red Velvet. IU has endorsed beauty and fashion brands like CNP Cosmetic, Gucci, J.Estina, and HStyle. Endorsing these beauty and fashion brands make IU a beauty and fashion icon.




IU IS EVERY GUY'S DREAM GIRL

Beautiful, smart, lovely personality - IU has it all. These three qualities make IU every guy's dream girl. No guys can't say no to IU. She's like a fairy tale princess. 

After 12 years as a celebrity, IU is not just adored by fanboys. She is also adored and admired by hot male celebrities. There are a lot of male idols and actors (South Korean and Asian-Hollywood) who have named IU as their ideal type and forever crush. This makes more girls wish to be like IU.

Ok, that's all guys. Before I end this post, I would like to wish IU a Happy 12th Anniversary, and all the best in her career and future. As a fan, I do wish to see IU making her debut in Hollywood soon. After all, she already has fans and admirers among Hollywood celebrities. So why not? Hehehe. I hope IU will become a legendary icon like Audrey Hepburn. After all, IU has a lot of similarities with Audrey Hepburn. Like Hepburn, IU is kind, generous, hard-working, humble, talented, and beautiful (both are a gamine beauty). 

Last but not least, I would like to ask my readers three simple questions about IU. Are you a fan of IU too? If yes, what are your opinions about IU? Do you think IU can be more than just a Hallyu star?

Ok, that's all. Thank you for reading.


XoXo,

Fadima Mooneira ^_^

    That's a shame that she got conned when she was first starting out, but it's also kind of a shame that she's only everyone's dream girl simply because of her looks, and not for her other traits and abilities

      Yep, she got conned. But she is still alive. That experience mature her and made her the person she is now. IU is a positive thinker and she sees good things in all kinds of situations. We should learn from her. Hehehe 😁

      Woah.......I did mentioned that IU is adored by men because she is beautiful, smart, and has a lovely personality 🤔 So all the guys do adored her for both outer and inner beauty 🌷🌷🌷
