On November 10, IU accidentally uploaded a private photo of her and Super Junior’s Eunhyuk on her Twitter. The photo showed IU in pink pajamas and Eunhyuk, who seems to not be wearing a shirt. Although it was quickly removed, it became a huge topic on the news and on online communities.


Recently, a game manufacturer revealed an illustration for its new game. The problem is, the characters in the illustration looked exactly like the two celebrities in the revealed photo. Many netizens felt uncomfortable for a company trying to take advantage of a celebrity’s revealed privacy. The illustration was soon removed after many criticizing comments followed underneath it.


According to IU’s agency, Eunhyuk is a good friend of IU and the photo was taken during his visit to IU’s house when she was sick.
