Singer and actress IU donated 250 million won on her birthday.

On the 16th, a photo was posted on IU's official SNS with the message, "What I learned from Uaena, what I felt through Uaena, and what I received from Uaena always serve as material for action that moves IU. I love you. Thank you so much today too♥."

According to the released photo, IU donated 250 million won to the Happiness Sharing Foundation, Heart to Heart Foundation, Korea Unwed Mothers and Families Association, and Korea Vulnerable Senior Citizens Support Foundation under the name 'IU Anna', combining the names of IU and her fan club, Uaena. In particular, IU has consistently taken the lead in good deeds under the name IU-Ana.

Previously, on the 5th, in celebration of Children's Day, 100 million won was donated to the Green Umbrella Children's Foundation under the name IUANA. Also, last month, it was reported that a pizza party was held for students at Milal School, a special school for the developmentally disabled. He prepared plenty of pizza, drinks, and rice cakes for both students and teachers, and it is said that IU's mother prepared the rice cakes together.

IU is currently meeting audiences with the movie 'Dream' (directed by Lee Byung-hun). 'Dream' is the story of Hong Dae (played by Park Seo-joon), a clueless former soccer player, and So-min (played by IU), a passionless producer, who challenge an impossible dream with a ragtag group of homeless national team players.
