IU collapsed when her 4 best friends Sulli, Goo Hara, Jonghyun, Lee Sun Kyun left one after another

IU has faced grief four times due to the d.eath of her best friend and brother in the profession. Lee Sun Kyun co-starred with her in "My Mister." Meanwhile, Sulli, Goo Hara and Jonghyun are close friends of the "nation's first love" as singers.

Born in 1993, IU's real name is Lee Ji Eun. She possesses a small figure, a cute round face. Everyone thinks that with such a look, IU must definitely grow up in wealth. However, it is quite the opposite.

In fact, IU had an extremely destitute childhood after her family went bankrupt. The singer at that time had to live with her family in a small room. Because of the huge debt, IU's mother had to send her and her younger brother back to her hometown to live with her grandmother.

While appearing on a show, IU opened up about the small room her family used to stay in after bankruptcy. The singer described it as a cold room, and the family never had enough food to eat. The whole family even lived mainly on the m.oney her grandmother earned from selling hair accessories at the market. Not only that, IU rarely saw or talked to her parents at the time. Because of that, whenever IU feels lonely, she comforts herself that she still has her grandmother.

Despite her gifted singing skills, IU still had to go through a difficult internship. At the age of 14, the singer had to go everywhere on her own in search of competitions. Before becoming as famous as she is now, IU was rejected in 20 competitions big and small. Not only that, the singer has also been tricked out of her savings by some "ghost" companies. She said that usually when some entertainment companies ask interns to pay for their training, it is a scam.

Having encountered difficulties, IU later helped her management company overcome the risk of bankruptcy. After being rejected several times, IU joined LOEN Entertainment. From the song "Good Day" that took the world by storm, IU has become the "nation's sister".

After helping LOEN Entertainment increase 10 billion won (about 170 billion VND) in profit in a year, IU has become the most influential name for this company in nearly 10 years.
