IU held stage greetings at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in conjunction with the re-release and special screenings of her concert films 'IU Concert: The Golden Hour' and 'IU Concert: The Winning' to commemorate her 18th debut anniversary. The event took place on September 20th, where IU met with audiences for a total of six sessions. Ticket reservations, which opened on September 15th at 6 PM, generated immense interest from fans.
A major highlight of these stage greetings was IU's new short haircut. The neat bob, cut to her jawline, made her face appear clearer and more lively, exuding a different kind of charm compared to her long hair. Her autumn-inspired knit fashion also drew attention, with two distinct stylings: an argyle-patterned cropped cardigan paired with a gray knit, and a black cardigan combined with a ruffled blouse, captivating fans.
Bloggers reacted positively to IU's short hair transformation, noting that the bob accentuated her cute features more effectively than her long hair. Her stage greeting outfits were also praised as excellent references for autumn coordination, with specific mentions of knitwear from brands like Shushutong and Sezane. Fans expressed satisfaction with the special experience of enjoying the concert films alongside IU's refreshed appearance.
