In light of the success of “Sogyeokdong”, Seo Taiji’s collaboration with IU, it has been confirmed that IU will be joining Seo Taiji in his comeback concert later this month.

After five years without releasing an album, Seo Taiji released his collaboration track with IU, “Sogyeokdong" which was an instant hit, ranking first in many of Korea’s major music charts.

Seo Taiji’s company announced that IU would be perfomring “Sogyeokdong" with Seo Taiji at his comeback concert ‘Christmalowin’ on October 18th at Seoul’s Jamsil Olympic Park.

The question that should on everyone’s mind, however, should be regarding IU’s presence and role during the performance of ”Sogyeokdong”, as the song was released in two separate versions with two separate music videos, IU’s part which was released on October 5th and Seo Taiji’s part which was released on October 9th.

Will the two sing the song as duet live? What do you think? MBC will air the concert, and Seo Taiji’s 9th album “Quiet Night” will be released on October 20th.
Singer IU and actor Lee Hyun Woo joked around and thoroughly enjoyed themselves during their Unionbay photo shoot. Their chemistry was electric on the set.

Recently, Unionbay released a set of photos of the pair getting close and comfortable with each other while they modeled apparel from the casual clothing brand. The stars wore jeans of every shade and even a few bright colored shirts and jackets. The well known celebrity friends recommended each other for the modeling gig, and now they are both reaping the rewards.

IU and Hyun Woo even admitted that they would like to work together if a good project comes their way.

I don't know about you, but I'm wholeheartedly rooting for these two to date. They are adorable together! The young stars, who are both 21 years old, are already good friends, so love should naturally come next.
