A claim has been raised that IU, who made her splendid debut at the Cannes Film Festival with the movie ' Broker', was pushed by a local influencer.

The 75th Cannes International Film Festival was held at the Lumière Grand Theater in Cannes, southern France on May 26th (local time).

On this day, IU attended the film festival with Song Kang Ho and Kang Dong Won.

The scene in question occurred while the actors were waiting for a while.

A French beauty influencer shoved IU on the shoulder and passed by without saying a special apology.

If there was a blow to IU's body, the person who pushed her would have noticed it, but she didn't look back.

Netizens were outraged by comments such as "It's racism" and "I'm ignoring it because I'm Asian."

Some fans also commented on the influencer's Instagram account to apologize.

In the end, the influencer tagged IU's account on Instagram Stories and said, "I had no idea" and "I sincerely apologize."

Even with the influencer's apology, fans pointed out "What kind of apology is it because it will be erased after a few hours?" and "It's just like a selfie video."

Also, the influencer has 37,000 followers, while IU has 26 million followers. There is also a response that the apology was forcibly due to the difference in the number of followers. 

BTS’s Jimin is once again proving his global dominance, especially in Japan, where his solo music continues to break records!

Jimin's hit song "Who", from his second album MUSE, has just been awarded the prestigious Gold streaming certification from the Japan Record Association (RIAJ).

This honor comes after "Who" surpassed a remarkable 50 million streams in February, making it the first solo song by Jimin to receive this certification in Japan!

The Japan Record Association certifies music based on total streams, with Gold for 50 million streams, Platinum for 100 million, and Diamond for a massive 500 million.

This achievement adds another significant milestone to Jimin’s growing solo career.

Previously, Jimin also earned a Platinum certification for his first album FACE (for 250,000 units shipped) and a Gold certification for MUSE (for over 100,000 units shipped).

With the Gold streaming certification for "Who", Jimin now holds a total of three prestigious certifications from the Japan Record Association, solidifying his place as a solo artist.

Not only that, but "Who" made waves on the Billboard charts, staying on the Billboard Hot 100 for an impressive 33 weeks, setting a record for the longest-charting K-pop solo song! It also spent 32 weeks on the Billboard Japan Hot 100, showing just how much love fans have for his music.

Jimin’s solo success doesn’t stop there, as GOLDEN also spent 20 weeks on the Billboard Japan Hot Albums chart, and Jimin continues to dominate the Billboard Japan Artist 100, where he has now charted for 47 weeks! Clearly, Jimin’s popularity is unstoppable!
