1. [+1,357, -5] That influencer's character... She should care more about being a decent human being than building her SNS popularity

2. [+821, -5] Europeans always like to act like proper etiquette is so important to them but when you watch how they behave at soccer matches and whatnot, there are a ton of uneducated barbarians

3. [+427, -6] Seems like anyone can get into the Cannes nowadays! She's just an influencer? ㅎ

4. [+423, -11] She's just an influencer? So a non-celebrity?

5. [+375, -9] If she actually meant her apology, she would've done it then and there when she hit her... how rude of her...

6. [+93, -2] She probably thought less of her because she's Asian but after she realized how big of a star she is, she apologized only then. She knew she'd be crucified if she didn't.

7. [+47, -1] You can totally tell it was intentional with the way she glanced at her before hitting her on the shoulder, which pisses me off more!!!

8. [+37, -0] Someone with only 37,000 followers counts as an influencer now?

9. [+35, -2] The French are so quick to apologize even for brushing by you, what this chick did was straight up violent. Also quite French of her to put her tail down immediately after realizing how famous IU is.

10. [+30, -0] She really picked the wrong person to do this to ㅋㅋㅋ

1. [+1,008] Just makes me think it was intentional so she could get some attention 🤦🏻‍♀️🤨

2. [+679] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The DMs of that influencer must be exploding ㅋㅋㅋ I'm curious to see how many messages she got in total ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+480] Protect IU at all costs 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

4. [+303] Pisses me off that anyone would mess with IU

5. [+210] I don't even know who she is or why she was there. Don't mess with IU~

6. [+275] Who even is she? How ridiculous

7. [+113] Maybe she felt jealous because IU looked so pretty

8. [+42] IU's dress looks really pretty though

1. [+272] It's obvious to the eye that she hit her on purpose

2. [+114] Tsk tsk... did she do that because she viewed her as lesser than her? It enrages me 🔥

3. [+124] That looked 100% intentional. It's a character issue on behalf of the influencer, and maybe even racist too 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

4. [+111] #1 You can see her glance in her direction before hitting her #2 in other angles, you can see there's ample space around them #3 the influencer's getting a ton of comments on her Instagram demanding an apology #4 she apologized on her Insta stories and tagged IU #5 then she started talking about how slanted eyes are pretty with her friends #6 she's basically some influencer with a paltry 30k followers who thought she could look down on IU but is now trying to do damage control by playing IU's songs on her reels and praising the movie 'Broker'

5. [+104] Feels like the apology is just for show and she's just trying to gain some followers out of this ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

1. [+359] Should've apologized to IU right after she hit her. Posting it on her Instagram feels disingenuous and it's difficult to discern whether she's just doing it out of sincerity or because she's afraid of the media reaction

2. [+185] She doesn't even have half of IU's followers count..

3. [+64] I feel like she's the type to be feeling good about her apology video views going up...

4. [+93] I watched this live and thought it was so ridiculous... at least apologize right there if you hit her, why wait until your Insta stories 😑

5. [+73] She doesn't even have 100,000 followers, how dare you mess with IU ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ridiculous ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
