The story of a fan receiving an unexpected letter at IU's concert hall is trending.
On the 9th, an online community posted an article titled "A Young Fan's Solo Adventure at the IU Concert."
Accompanying the content was a photo of a letter received by a UAENA member (IU fandom name) who attended the concert.
Author A expressed, "It's my first time bringing a child, seemingly an elementary school student, to a concert, so I appreciate your cooperation." After the concert, Author A recounted helping with packing belongings and waiting for the guardian to arrive, only to find a letter left in the snacks.
Some excerpts from the letter include:
"I'm a fan attending an IU concert for the first time with my child. I was fortunate to secure tickets, but as it was limited to one person, I had to send my child alone."
The child's mother, B, elaborated, "I do have a guardian accompanying me, but our seats are not close. Unfortunately, my mother couldn't obtain tickets," explaining the reason for the letter.
Concerned about inconveniencing others, Author A emphasized, "I worry about inconveniencing others, but my love for IU compelled me not to cancel."
They also requested understanding for any unintentional mistakes made by the child, urging kindness in response.
Netizens who viewed the article commented, "Heartwarming," "A memorable experience for the child," "Touching and thoughtful," and "IU might extend an invitation if this gains more attention."
