Singer and actress IU (33, real name Lee Ji-eun) shared her recent updates on social media, causing a stir across the entire online world.

Earlier on the 6th, IU posted a message saying, "Hello, long time no see. I'm living hard," along with a flood of recent photos.

However, this post triggered a major reaction. After all, three male stars were summoned, so to speak.

First, IU mentioned Lee Jong-seok (37), as it was her first social media activity since breaking up with the actor last month. The two began their public relationship in December 2022 but ended it after about four years.

Additionally, a belated birthday cake photo of IU included in the post turned out to be a special order made by Byun Woo-seok (35), further fueling the buzz. A cake company tagged both Byun Woo-seok and IU's official SNS accounts, revealing this behind-the-scenes detail. IU's birthday is May 16, which was also the final episode date of MBC's '21st Century Grand Duchess.' It appears that Byun Woo-seok, as her co-star, did not forget to celebrate her birthday, showcasing a warm friendship.

But what surprised netizens the most was IU directly summoning singer Jang Ki-ha (44). Jang Ki-ha is IU's official ex-ex-boyfriend. The two overcame an 11-year age gap and began their public relationship in 2013, ending it after about four years of dating in 2017.

Nevertheless, IU set the background music for her post to "Living Without Much Trouble" by Jang Ki-ha and The Faceless, the group Jang Ki-ha belongs to. Although the two ended their romantic relationship ten years ago, the timing was coincidental, sparking heated debate among netizens. Given that IU had recently broken up with Lee Jong-seok and Jang Ki-ha had recently started dating actress Yoon Ga-i, who is 18 years younger than him, the choice of Jang Ki-ha's song led to reactions like "Why bother?"

As a result, IU has been at the center of public scrutiny for two days due to a single social media post. While some have cast unfavorable glances, it also proved her immense influence once again. This is truly IU demonstrating her devilish star power.
