She will also be boycotting the rest of the year-end ceremonies due to an incident at the MAMA last year where she sang three songs but was only given two awards. IU's reps got into a huge fight with MAMA producers to the point of a screaming match because IU's reps expected more than two awards. She has since boycotted award ceremonies from that moment on.<br /><br />-<br /><br />1. [+2,543, -234] As if she's boycotting anything ㅋㅋ What is she, throwing a fit? IU is absolutely nothing more than a product manufactured by Melon. She originally debuted with a ballad but once they realized it wasn't going to work, they put her in a loli style singing boo~ Marshmallow~ to get some attention and then marketed herself with the three high notes in 'Good Day' for some variety show exposure. At the height of her fame, she got into that Eunhyuk scandal and now that Melon realized they couldn't use her little sister image anymore, they switched plans by turning her into an artist. She succeeded with the help of senior singers and writing her own songs.<br /><br />2. [+1,217, -191] Yeah, if she had any shame at all, she wouldn't be coming to those ㅋㅋㅋㅋ<br /><br />3. [+1,123, -168] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ<br /><br />4. [+780, -133] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ<br /><br />5. [+427, -22] This is why people call her sly... and what exactly happened with her Britney Spears sampling case? Britney Spears should be boycotting her, who does IU think she is boycotting anything? She doesn't even deserve any of her awards ㅋㅋ Funny how she didn't want her plagiarism to get caught so she added it as a bonus track to her fans so it won't get exposure and then cosplayed as a music artist to them... her dumb fans think she's that talented and support her while blaming the haters ㅋㅋ<br /><br />6. [+422, -24] She's boycotting the ceremonies? Not the ceremonies boycotting her? Who does she think she is? ㅋㅋㅋ Well the public is boycotting you<br /><br />-<br /><br /><b>Source</b>: <a href="http://media.daum.net/entertain/culture/newsview?newsId=20151119080605543&rMode=list&allComment=T">Daum</a><br /><br />1. [+425, -90] She must really think she's an amazing artist ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's obvious she's too embarrassed to show herself in public, way to come up with excuses<br /><br />2. [+373, -87] As expected of IU... from a half assed apology to now ignoring her fans.. but of course her fans will still suck up to her<br /><br />3. [+107, -8] Boycott my butt ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it's obvious she's too embarrassed...<br /><br />-<br /><br /><b>Source</b>: <a href="http://news.nate.com/view/20151119n05787?mid=n1008">Nate</a><br /><br />1. [+523, -20] She's not boycotting anything, she's just not attending. How is this a boycott?<br /><br />2. [+228, -32] A bit of a weird timing, isn't it...? I normally like IU but it seems she's getting so cocky with the way she's acting lately. Her innocent little act was nothing but image making, yeah?<br /><br />3. [+195, -27] Her reason for boycotting the events sound more like excuses ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ after all, she's an ~artist~ now who doesn't care about promoting herself on TV and she's already in tons of scandals so she knows she's going to get hate by going on these ceremonies, not that they'd want her anyway ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ<br /><br />4. [+26, -2] The public is boycotting her, who does she think she is to be boycotting anything right now? She's just a celebrity who perverted loli lovers like, she's no artist ㅋ<br /><br />5. [+22, -3] What is she doing, hiding behind everyone like this? As big as the love you receive is, you should show that much back. What a fool.<br /><br />6. [+56, -13] So basically IU's reps threw a fit at MAMA because she wasn't given more awards. Looks like people aren't nice to her no matter how rudely she acts, eh?<br /><br />7. [+29, -4] Even IU's at the end of her career now... so many scandals, her image is in the pits, she doesn't have long left. She's going to end up like Jang Nara or Lee Jiyeon in a few years, just used as broadcast filler to talk about the old nation's little sisters/has-beens.<br /><br />8. [+20, -2] Yeah, more like she can't come out because she's cared of the public<br /><br />9. [+18, -1] She's just pulling the first punch because she knows the public will boycott her first otherwise<br /><br />10. [+16, -2] Slow downfall<br /><br />-<br /><br /><b>Source</b>: <a href="http://news.nate.com/view/20151119n07788?mid=n1008">Nate</a><br /><br />1. [+406, -62] She won two awards, why'd they cause a scene? Were they promised to be given three awards if she performed three times but MAMA didn't give her three so they caused a scene? Talk about cocky...<br /><br />2. [+349, -24] There's Soyu who practically swallowed 2014 whole with her song 'Some' but never won any awards and she's not saying anything. The only reason you, IU, are winning anything is because you're Melon's daughter. Realize that.<br /><br />3. [+240, -18] Isn't it IU, the self proclaimed producer of her album who couldn't promote on broadcast because she was too tired from producing her entire album? But then she started adding co-composers once plagiarism accusations came out?<br /><br />-<br /><br /><b>Source: </b><a href="http://entertain.naver.com/ranking/read?oid=009&aid=0003623760">Naver</a><br /><br />1.

[+182, -51] Such a stretch she has to go to shield IU... how much were you paid to say that<br /><br />4. [+69, -8] IU was subtle with it at first and I knew it was there but wasn't sure and let it go because I thought people would think I was being sensitive if I tried to criticize her for it but now that she came out with a full on lolita concept, I'm sure I was right. Furthermore, she should never have described a child in the way that she did, especially a victim of child abuse. I'm not sure why critics and journalists are so obsessed with this idea of freedom of expression that they're not seeing what the real root of the problem here is.<br /><br />5. [+27, -5] Excuse me but you can't call the entire public as consumers of her lolita image because not all of us are IU fans. What a joke;;;<br /><br />6. [+21, -4] She's right in the end. IU can come out with these dirty concepts all she wants but in the end it's up to the public not to consume it if they don't want to.<br /><br />-<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBxNo-5QPcJ4lLGvjHk2qbHAcsYD2zYMH6EyLT_OqEaXX5z8-5MCLAjLX_qZ3II0Tc-O_WGr_eVyru6ex693KaEZ2rBXyX7c58n8Z1U2UX2AxMiGF7-LvcB0MrVmfb4DasloG-qqYc0VI/s1600/iu4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBxNo-5QPcJ4lLGvjHk2qbHAcsYD2zYMH6EyLT_OqEaXX5z8-5MCLAjLX_qZ3II0Tc-O_WGr_eVyru6ex693KaEZ2rBXyX7c58n8Z1U2UX2AxMiGF7-LvcB0MrVmfb4DasloG-qqYc0VI/s640/iu4.jpg" width="505" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCq9Dr7Gp9hXn3tfYHfaQ3j4tG_s24jeZgGMTNLrOxbnn8BsStg32KQZRRMhfN8IewkttpObFK9kZtAuPsz9aJClxJ6E4Xq2UgQQiGfNEUaZYG-sDuMKK8_nlaFnqLOsZb9eW_a0Sh4mE/s1600/iu5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCq9Dr7Gp9hXn3tfYHfaQ3j4tG_s24jeZgGMTNLrOxbnn8BsStg32KQZRRMhfN8IewkttpObFK9kZtAuPsz9aJClxJ6E4Xq2UgQQiGfNEUaZYG-sDuMKK8_nlaFnqLOsZb9eW_a0Sh4mE/s1600/iu5.jpg" /></a></div><br /><b>Article:</b> <a href="http://news.nate.com/view/20151118n07462?mid=n1008">"My age, 23"..
