Here is What IU Shared about Her Hearing Issue.
After her performance, when IU talked to her fans, she confessed, “To be honest, today’s performance was a little difficult.” She further said, “Actually, I have some problems with my ears, so I prepared for the show with a nervous heart.
It’s not serious, but the situation is I can’t control my ears too well and it has been going on since about a year ago.” Adding to this she said, “fortunately, my throat condition was very good, but after yesterday’s performance, my ears got a little worse, so I think I had a bit of a hellish day while rehearsing last night and today.”
She credited all of her followers, thanked them for their support, and said, “I came on the stage thinking ‘I don’t know what’s going to happen as I started the first song but I think that you guys really did everything for today’s performance.”
