• IU Finally Found The Fan Who Screamed “Who Says You’re Fat?” at a Busan Concert

    The identity of the female fan who asked IU in a loud voice, "Who says you’re fat??!!" has now been disclosed.

    Recently, a video interview was published on the YouTube channel known as "MMTG." The video's subject was "Scolding Song Kang brutally vs. scolding Song Kang Ho, what is Kang Dong Won, Lee Ji Eun, and Lee Ju Young's choice?" It was uploaded with the phrase "This will give you tearful eyes and a runny nose with Hirokazu Koreeda."

    The cast and crew of "MMTG" were able to conduct interviews with the lead actors Song Kang Ho, Kang Dong Won, IU, and Lee Ju Young of "Broker," a new Korean film directed by Hirokazu Koreeda. "Broker" is the latest film from Koreeda.

    MC Jaejae started off by saying, "I can't help but mention this video," and then continued by saying, "The 'Who says you’re fat??!!' video".

    At the Busan concert for IU's fourth mini-album "CHAT-SHIRE" in 2015, a female audience suddenly yelled out "Who says you’re fat??!!" after IU said, "I think I have gained some weight these days".

    The video that Jaejae is referring to is a video of the audience supporter's outburst, which can be found on YouTube.

    IU reflected on that moment and shared her thoughts by saying, "I had a concert in Seoul the week before that, and I told the fans that I gained a little weight compared to the performance in Busan." One member of the crowd exclaimed at that very moment, "Who says you’re fat??!!"

    Immediately after that, when Jaejae added, "We have gotten a video letter from her," IU's expression changed to one of shock as though she could not believe what she was hearing.

    The fangirl who sent the video message to Jaejae said the following: "I'm the fan who shouted 'Who says you’re fat??!!' at the 'CHAT-SHIRE' concert in Busan", and she continued by saying, "'Broker' will be out soon, and I'll surely go see it when it's out."

    She then stated to IU, "I hope you don't get sick and work well during your promotional activity", while holding a cheering message with a lightstick to impress IU.

    "I hope you don't get sick and work well during your promotional activity", she added.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
