• Former IZ*ONE Member Kwon Eun Bi Earns a New Nickname From Locals Following Her Viral Waterbomb Performances

    Former IZ*ONE member Kwon Eun Bi shared that when she searches for her own name, only the term "Waterbomb" appears.

    The popular artist, who recently made a comeback with her new song "The Flash," appeared as a guest on the YouTube channel "Kiu" in a video titled "Kwon Eun Bi is gaining attention these days...".

    Kwon Eun Bi, often referred to as the "Goddess of Waterbomb," has garnered significant affection following her appearance at the festival.

    Expressing her gratitude, she said, "I've received so much attention thanks to Waterbomb, and I'm truly appreciative of that. If you look up my name, you'll only find references to Waterbomb."

    During the interview, Kiu inquired, "Do you try to conceal your identity while walking around?" To which Kwon Eun Bi responded, "Even if I don't cover up, people often don't recognize me."

    Kwon Eun Bi further elaborated, "People tend to underestimate my height. Since I usually wear heels on stage, they're surprised to see how petite I am when they meet me in person."

    Standing at a height of 158.4cm, Kwon Eun Bi expressed, "They assume I have a larger build, but in reality, I'm smaller than expected. Regardless, I'm often not easily recognizable."

    Admitting humorously, "After Waterbomb, people tend to recognize me a lot," Kwon Eun Bi shared a comical incident, saying, "Instead of addressing me as Kwon Eun Bi, they call me Waterbomb. So, I have to remind them of my actual name. Nonetheless, I'm thankful that they remember me."

    Reflecting on her experiences during the music video shoot at the Han River, Kwon Eun Bi confessed, "We filmed on a set as well as at the Han River. I even ran on the Han River bridge."

    Recreating the scenario, she recounted, "I was running all by myself, and passersby were giving me curious looks.

    People on bicycles rode by, clearly puzzled. When I'm immersed in the moment, I don't notice these reactions. I run with enthusiasm, and as soon as the director shouts 'cut,' I suddenly become aware of my surroundings."

    The video featuring Kwon Eun Bi's interview can be viewed on the "Kiu" YouTube channel.

  • IU Secretly Watches Her Own Movie in a Theater, Drops Hints About Her Identity, but No One Recognizes Her?!

    IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

    On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

    She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

    Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

    IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

    Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

    She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

    But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint! she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

    Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

    After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

    On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

    Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
