IU has gone from teenage idol and being known as the “Nation’s Little Sister” in Korea to a grown woman who’s had her fair share of K-pop “controversies” (from dating rumors to supposedly inappropriate lyrics and album artwork on 2015’s Chat-Shire). “You’ll ask with big eyes / ‘How how how?’ / …Whatever,” she continues as if it’s part of an internal conversation.
