IU and Lee Jong Suk have shared warm letters for their fans! After their relationship was confirmed on December 31, the two stars took to each of their fan ...

Thank you to the fans who yelled and cheered for me at the Drama Awards so I don’t lose my confidence. Happy New Year, and I love you always. I sincerely thank you for having fun with me and being the closest with me for another year! Even when I was working hard living my own way, she was a strange existence who always took up a corner of my heart. Along with that, I think one of the reasons that my pride and passion for work is surging even more these days is because I have a good friend who compliments me for a long time up close. When you wake up from your deep sleep, it will be a new year. Those who saw the articles today must know, but I am currently dating. I started writing in 2022, but it’s already 2023 now. Happy New Year again, UAENA. I will run forward without being lazy again this year! In 2022, which has become last year, I was so happy to meet you for the first time in a while and see you up close. Are you all asleep at this time?
