Singer IU provided business class airline tickets to more than 100 staff members.
On the 5th, a post titled 'IU's Gift to Staff Members' spread online.
The writer of the post said, "IU gave business class airline tickets to staff members," and tagged IU with the words, "It's her FLEX. She gave them to staff members for their hard work. 'Her name is'."
Another person also posted a photo of themselves boarding business class with the words, "Thanks to Ji-eun (IU's real name), I'm going to Korea comfortably."
That's not all. Other staff members also posted photos of themselves certified as business class airline tickets online, further spreading IU's good story. Fans and netizens are continuing to admire her immense wealth and kind heart.
IU also takes good care of her neighbors in need. Last January, she made headlines by donating a total of 200 million won to the underprivileged since the new year. The officially revealed cumulative donation amount is a whopping 5 billion won.
Since IU has been showing warm behavior by donating large sums of money for several years, attention is also being drawn to her assets.
As a singer, IU earns income from various sources such as music and concert revenue, as well as drama and movie appearances and brand advertisements. In 2021, Hong Kong media outlet South China Morning Post (SCMP) selected IU as the K-pop female singer with the most wealth. The media estimated IU's wealth to be between 39.5 billion won and 57.3 billion won.
IU's real estate also attracts attention. Mnet entertainment show 'TMI NEWS SHOW' revealed that IU received a cash payment of 13 billion won for a luxury villa in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and owns a studio building worth 4.6 billion won in Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do.
She also owns a two-story, 170-pyeong country house in Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do, and it is known that IU purchased this house for 2.2 billion won and the surrounding land for an additional 800 million won.
Meanwhile, after wrapping up her American tour, IU is scheduled to hold an encore concert for 'HEREH' at the Sangam World Cup Stadium on September 21 and 22. IU has also been in a public relationship with actor Lee Jong-suk since December 2022.
