On September 19, 2024, residents of Seongsan-dong were pleasantly surprised when they found a special gift from singer IU hanging on their doorknobs. This gesture was IU’s way of apologizing for any inconvenience caused by the noise and traffic expected during her upcoming concert.

One resident shared online, “I live near Seoul World Cup Stadium, and this is the first time I’m receiving something like this. Usually, I just notice the events happening, but no celebrity has ever done this before. It really touched me.”

IU’s Thoughtful Gesture to Seongsan-dong Residents

IU’s gift was distributed to residents of apartment complexes in Mapo-gu, Seongsan-dong, an area known for frequent noise disruptions from events at the stadium. Her concert, 2024 HEREH Encore: The Winning, will take place on September 21-22, and she wanted to warn the neighbors in advance about the noise and traffic during the weekend.

To over 4,000 households, IU distributed garbage disposal bags—a practical item many homes use. Attached to the gift was a message: “From September 21-22, 2024, IU’s 2024 concert will be held for 2 days at Seoul World Cup Stadium. We ask residents in the area for your generous understanding.”

Residents Appreciated IU’s Effort

Many residents expressed their appreciation, stating that this was the first time a musician had ever acknowledged the inconvenience caused by events at the stadium. The gesture, though simple, was seen as considerate and respectful to the local community.

Finale of IU’s World Tour

The 2024 HEREH Encore: The Winning concert will conclude IU’s first world tour, which has covered 18 cities over five months. Fans are eagerly awaiting the grand finale of this remarkable tour.
