IU was moved by the strong friendship of 'One Night Two Days' team.

On the 11th episode of KBS 2TV's drama, "Producers", Cindy (IU) was blamed for lying, after she was pressured by Byeon Mi-sook (Nah Yeong-hee) to confess her parents had passed away.

Cindy later realized her life as a star was fading away. Cindy took sleeping pill and fell asleep alone. It seemed that Cindy was doing well coping with the painful situation alone.

When Cindy fell asleep with the help of sleeping pills, she had to open her eyes because she felt some moist on her face. She saw Baek Seung-chan (Kim Soo-hyeon-I) spraying water on her face when she woke up. When Cindy looked around, she realized 'One Night Two Days' team came over to film the show.

Ra Joon-mo (Cha Tae-hyeon) told Cindy, "Don't' you have to go to work?", Cindy was deeply touched by the friendship of 'One Night Two Days' team and she burst into tears.

Walk the streets of Korea and you’re bound to hear an angelic voice serenading you. Listen carefully or don’t listen at all. It doesn’t matter because, before you know it, you’ll dance to the beat or hum along.

You’ll feel uplifted and cheery… or your eyes will well up with emotional tears. You’ll be affected by that soulful voice and the message in her song. Where you are won’t make a difference.

In a cafe. In your car. Out with friends. At home watching television. Or even eavesdropping on someone’s conversation as you pass by. You’ve suddenly changed. Just like that....
