In the latest broadcast of the show "Pinggyego", IU and Byeon Woo Seok - two actors of the new movie "Perfect Crown" appeared as guests alongside MC Yoo Jae Suk and Yang Se Chan.
At the program, when asked about Yoo Jae Suk's plans for this year, IU shared that her TV series will soon air. After that, the female singer plans to release a new album and hold a personal concert.
Besides information about IU's solo concert (private music night) expected to take place in September, the two MCs continued to question about when her new album will be released. "As soon as the season transitions from summer to autumn," IU humorously revealed.

This sharing raises expectations that the female singer will return around the end of August, right before the private music night in September.
Before the question of whether she has prepared many songs or not, IU nodded and said that most of the work has been completed. This shows that the music comeback of the singer born in 1993 is being prepared quite carefully.
Besides the music project, IU is also about to return to the small screen with Byeon Woo Seok in the romantic drama "Perfect Crown". The work is scheduled to air on MBC on April 10 at 9:40 PM Korean time.
IU's simultaneous preparation for both a TV series, a new album and a personal concert makes fans look forward to her exciting activities in 2026.
