Singer-songwriter Jang Ki Ha was recently asked by the media whether the decision for his band to go with its first love-themed album release was influenced by his relationship with songstress IU.
Jang Ki Ha and his band, known as Kiha and the Faces, held their showcase on the 15th as they celebrated the release of their fourth studio album. As the frontman is also known to be currently in a relationship with female singer IU, he was asked whether their decision to release a love-themed album was due to her.
In response, Jang Ki Ha revealed that while some of the lyrics written were somewhat influenced by his personal experiences, he emphasizes that the lyrics of all ten tracks are fictional as he attempted to portray a universal and basic feelings of love.
He then adds, “In the past, we thought love songs were too cheesy, but now we felt ready to do love songs written in our own way. We challenged ourselves and made it into an album.”

IU puts the "A" in "Adorable." We already know she has a baby-face, but with a beanie, she goes back in time and returns as her 15-year-old self. Her taste in beanies is just as adorable, ranging from the monster-ear beanie (far right) to the beanie with a huge fluff ball placed on top.

KBS 2TV's 'Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook' had a Jeju Acoustic Festival (JAF) special on September 13, featuring singers John Park and IU, who saw each other again for the first time in a long time!
IU said, "I like acoustic music with its simple composition. I think there's a high level of concentration," and performed an acoustic song with her soothing vocals. When asked if there was anything that came to mind in relation to Jeju Island, IU said, "I like Jeju Island's hallabong the best (a type of clementine). Its sweet taste is the best."
This cued John Park to appear holding a Jeju Island hallabong. He said, "It has been a while since I saw IU since a guest appearance at a concert. Today, she gives off a mature and womanly feel."

IU went for a simple girl-next-door look. She paired the blouse with peach colored shorts and a bright color block shoulder bag. She opted for natural make-up and "apple hair" with loose curls. Na-Eun went in a different direction when styling the blouse. She wore the piece with a white high-waist flared skirt with black polka dots. She, too, went for a natural look with light make-up and loose curls.
IU's outfit was perfect for her role as Soon Shin. However, I think Na-Eun really shined in this outfit. I love that she ran away with the feminine look. The skirt perfectly balances out the attention from the bare shoulders and ruffled sleeves on the blouse.
But in the end both ladies looked beautiful!
