Since then she's filmed You're the Best Lee Soon Shin with Jo Jung Suk and Pretty Man with Jang Geun Suk and is acclaimed as one of the most qualified actresses from the K-pop world.

The actors are being reunited from the 2011 high school musical drama Dream High, where Kim Soo Hyun played a dorky character who's in love with Suzy, and IU played a girl traumatized from her fat days. Her fat makeup in the first few episodes of Dream High took over 4 hours to complete and cost $60,000 per episode.

IU (born 1993) and Suzy (born 1994) are best friends in the K-pop world, and Suzy endearingly calls IU unni whenever they hang out. Here they are playing with a watermelon seed on IU's wrist (left), which looks like Suzy's mole on her wrist (right).

Stills from the first script reading of the upcoming KBS drama “Producer” have been released.

“Producer” is described as the first “variety drama,” produced by the cumulative skills and “know-how” of the KBS variety department. It is based on the actual KBS department where overtime is the usual, all-nighters are optional, and its people survive through stamina and quick comprehension.

The script reading was held in March at Gangnam’s The Raum Art Center. Lasting for about four hours, it was attended by cast members Cha Tae Hyun, Gong Hyo JIn, Kim Soo Hyun, IU, Na Young Hee,...

An interview that IU gave about acting is being brought back to light.

IU, who has recently been confirmed as a female lead for the new drama “Producer,” had appeared as a guest on SBS‘s “Healing Camp” in July of 2014 and had revealed her feelings about acting.

At the time, IU expressed her love for acting, saying, “Acting is really fun too. It’s completely different from singing. The emotions that I can’t express through singing, I can express through acting. I’d like to continue to do both in the future as well.”

She added, “In terms of emotions, in singing, my emotions are expressed after going through the melody and the lyrics, whereas in acting, the emotions are expressed as they are. I get to use emotions that I don’t normally use. I haven’t cried out loud since I was a baby, but through acting, I get to cry out loud or get angry, and can express emotions that way.”
