1. [+550, -10] I wish all agencies would handle ticket scalpers like this. It's so common for young students to end up being scammed by nasty upcharges all because they want to go see their favorite singers. There are also people who lose a lot of money to scalpers when concerts get canceled. It's wrong that people are willing to go to such lengths for these tickets but you also have to understand just how much they must want to see their favorite singers. It'd be great if all agencies could come up with solutions like this to protect their fans from being scammed. I hope IU spreads her positive influence far and wide.

2. [+84, -7] And this is how it should be

3. [+48, -2] Sigh, there really are way too many scalpers these days

4. [+42, -7] Good on IU! Good job!

5. [+13, -1] As expected of IU, good

6. [+9, -0] Good~~~~~~ even ticketing sites get frozen because of these scalpers

7. [+11, -3] She's the best

8. [+9, -2] So much better than some other agencies who only care about their profits in the end. It cuts into IU's profits to have to look out for scalpers like this, and she and her agency deserve respect for this.

9. [+5, -2] Once you hear her live at her concerts, there's no way you don't become addicted... it's amazing how she's able to produce such a sound from her petite frame

10. [+2, -0] People will just start making excuses... like this was a gift, I'm not able to go, something came up ㅎ there will always be a way for crime to happen ㅎ
