IU reps reveal interior pictures of her private building in question

Article: IU reps, "Real estate rumors are unfounded... We will reveal the interior of her building" [official statement]

Source: Mydaily via Nate

1. [+868, -287] Well of course she's using the interior of the building, what's that got to do with anything?

2. [+575, -219] Real estate speculation is used in instances like when Park Myung Soo got a loan to buy the Starbucks building in Shinchon and sold it three years later for a profit of 1.7 billion won....

3. [+393, -266] Seems like people are mad that IU bought land

4. [+355, -254] Enough with the witch hunt, is it really necessary for her to reveal pictures of her private life like this?

5. [+176, -45] Just because she's using the building doesn't mean the rumors aren't true. Do they think the public are fools?

6. [+98, -74] Here are the facts for you: #1 IU's building is in the GTX region? No. #2 Green belt on the land was released half a year after IU purchased it? No, officials say that IU's land won't be released from green belt. #3 The price rose 2.3 billion won? According to reports, there hasn't been a dramatic difference compared to when IU first bought it (so it was a misreport). #4 IU bought green belt land for more money? She didn't pay more for the land, she just chose to purchase a more expensive building instead of a cheaper one for personal use. If she really wanted to flip the land, there would've been no reason for her to purchase the more expensive building.

7. [+94, -9] When you go on IU's Instagram, you'll see training videos of trainees we've never seen and those are her juniors who are training there. She's letting them train at her facility for free. You guys are going to get sued.

8. [+92, -24] I don't think this logically explains anything. She needs to start by releasing papers for when she first bought it. No one cares what she plans to do with the land...

9. [+82, -56] This b*tch's agency is always claiming legal action whenever they're in the wrong ㅋㅋ hilarious

10. [+71, -15] Normally when people try to flip land, they use the empty land as parking space and any buildings on it as storage... It's the easiest way to keep use of it without spending a lot of money on maintenance. Also, you don't rent the space out to others before you flip it either.

11. [+71, -91] She really is using it as a work space

12. [+66, -72] What in the world... she revealed everything from trophies, gifts, merchandise, production room... People aren't believing even expert opinion, they've just been wanting to hate her since her 'My Ajusshi' days. This won't change their minds. Please just keep believing what you want and get sued.

13. [+64, -15] I just want to know what the inside of a building has anything to do with the rumors. You can easily dress up the inside of a building.

14. [+64, -14] But does this answer anything?

15. [+49, -55] You can't just accuse someone of real estate speculation just because their building price went up ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

16. [+39, -17] Her agency's always trying to sue everyone, even non-hate comments that are just criticisms ㅋㅋㅋ What we're asking for are not interior pictures but how she came upon the decision to buy this land. There are tons of people who try to flip land by still building on it and even living on it on the weekends if they have to just to prove that they didn't buy it under real estate speculation. Please investigate this thoroughly because there's no way that a piece of land in Gwachun is worth as much as Seoul.

17. [+37, -7] So she bought it in 2018 and yet the pictures look like she's been using it for years already. This is such weak evidence..

18. [+33, -5] What do interior pictures have anything to do with the rumors?

19. [+21, -10] I don't think you guys know what real estate speculation is. I saw news of this in the morning and just thought it wasn't a big deal but when I checked the internet after work, it was actually all the rage on the internet ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Real estate speculation is when you take out a loan to buy something and then selling it back for a profit, which doesn't apply to building or land that you're actually using. It's ridiculous that the best reply is saying that her using the building has nothing to do with it. Just proves that you're stupid.

20. [+21, -31] Everyone made it seem as if she put up a building somewhere in the middle of no where ㅋㅋ but it just ended up being a building 10 minutes from her family home ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

If she really wanted to flip the land, there would've been no reason for her to purchase the more expensive building.

2. [+687, -54] Can't believe she provided a training room for her juniors for free ㅠㅠ she's so kind. How can you accuse such a singer of such things.

3. [+492, -14] So sad that her private life can't be protected. If only the journalist didn't spread false facts, she wouldn't have had to reveal pictures of this building ㅠㅠ

4. [+173, -4] And what are people going to do about IU's parents getting their info revealed like this? Let's start by suing all the journalists and the hate comments. As many controversies as IU has had, she's always been right in the end ㅋㅋ

5. [+166, -4] I choked up seeing all the fan presents, pictures, and dolls there... time to round up the hate comments in a pDF

6. [+139, -2] This was a building to preserve her fan gifts, for her parents to use, for her juniors to use... and people tainted it with false rumors. Please take legal action... our Jieunie is so kind. Just consider this better luck for your New Year!!

7. [+129, -2] Please put this up on the main page, she needs the truth to come out

8. [+94, -2] IU must be feeling so regretful when it's just being used to support her juniors

9. [+85, -1] This has been just another opportunity for me to find out about IU's good character ㅎㅎ

10. [+52, -0] Both IU and her family have kept this building private and allowed her juniors to use it for training and now it's all been revealed like this. What real estate speculation? She's letting her juniors use it for free and using the building for a good purpose. She must be so upset... It breaks my heart to see her pictures full of trophies and fan gifts on the couch... I hope her new album this year sweeps up all the awards like 'Palette' did last, last year...

11. [+51, -3] This is pissing me off! Why should IU have to reveal pictures of her mother's private office and her work space too? I know that netizens will be like "well, I guess I was wrong" and move on like they didn't do anything but who's going to compensate IU for her damages?

12. [+41, -2] ㅋㅋㅋ Are you all happy now? What are you all going to do about invading IU's privacy like this? Her agency had already denied the rumors and yet you guys ignored it and kept believing what you wantd to believe. Shouldn't you be apologizing for attacking her like this? For accusing her of donating to charity for her image? Have you all ever even donated a dime? IU has always donated to charity, why drag her down for that? Please round up all the haters and take legal action.

13. [+32, -0] Even experts put out opinions denying the rumors, what exactly do haters want her to do?

14. [+25, -0] The journalist who put out the first article needs to be penalized too

15. [+21, -1] Apologize to IU

16. [+19, -1] So upset to see my favorite artist being hurt by such ridiculous news ㅜ

17. [+13, -0] If you look closely at the pictures, you can see the trophies, fan art, pictures, and everything that she's received. IU's manager is also a Red Velvet fan and you can see her computer background is Seulgi too ㅠㅠ this is such a private space for her and now you haters made her reveal it. Where'd all the people who signed her national petition go?

18. [+12, -0] Please sue these trash

19. [+10, -0] Witch hunting is scary... IU is not that kind of person. I never even believed such ridiculous rumors in the beginning.

20. [+10, -0] And yet this article isn't up on the main page...
