[NEWS] 2011.01.28 IU talks about her fluctuating list of men

IU made a guest appearance on Y-STAR's "Star News Top 10 Reactions", and answered questions about her fluctuating ideal men for her interview.

When asked for her thoughts on her 'fish bowl' controversy ('fish bowl' is a term used to describe men and women that lead a variety of potential partners on but never settle, much like taking care of fish in a fish bowl), IU answered, "I honestly don’t know what 'fish bowl' is. I answered as honestly as I could during all of the times I was asked, but they made many articles out of that. Lately, I’ve been thinking that I need to be more careful with what I say."


She continued, "During interviews, the reporters always list a few names they want me to choose my ideal men from. The interview often doesn’t state that my 'ideal man' was chosen from their list, which is why I think so many articles keep saying that I constantly change my ideal men." 

Check out her full segment at 11 AM KST on January 29th through cable channel, Y-STAR.
