The lovely IU has stepped up to aid Korea's youth with her very own 'IU Scholarship'!

A netizen who recently graduated from IU's alma mater, Dong Duk Women's High School, recently uploaded photos of the singer in the high school newspaper for her generosity!

The 'IU Scholarship' will be an annual scholarship funded by the singer each year beginning in 2016, and will consist of 5,000,000 KR₩ (approximately $4300) awarded to 4 students from underprivileged families.
