Thousands of fans, including celebrities from all parts of the Korean entertainment industry, watched IU make history as the first female artist to perform at the stadium.
During the two nights, netizens were wowed with the talents of IU, who shined with her amazing vocals, stage presence, and the fact that she put on a show that looked straight out of a Disney movie.
Alongside the beautiful show and the fact that IU stole the hearts of millions of fans with her talent and beauty, the concert also gained attention for its star-studded guests.
Whether it was BTS‘s Jungkook, members of TXT and THE BOYZ, or actors and actresses, everyone wanted a chance to witness history.
Yet, one person who truly captured the hearts of netizens after watching IU’s concert is actor Lee Joon Gi. Aside from being a well-loved actor, he also starred alongside IU in the hit K-Drama Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo.
During the show, the duo sent netizens into a flood of emotions through their storyline, and it’s still iconic six years later.
Well, fans of the K-Drama witnessed one of the cutest interactions after the duo reunited backstage at IU’s concert.
In photos from the actor’s Instagram, Lee Joon Gi showed off his concert experience, enjoying the show with his lightstick and making use of the thoughtful gift from IU’s mom.
Of course, Lee Joon Gi had to go backstage and meet his favorite idol IU, and they even did their iconic post together.
If that wasn’t cute enough, the caption was more than enough to send the internet into meltdown as the actor shared some loving words towards his former co-star IU.
I watched with excitement, wondering if that’s what it would feel like to have the whole world, and soon I was able to feel the gift of happiness of what it would feel like to have the whole world!
Thank you Jieun. You worked so hard! It was really great! I received great inspiration and strength and now I’ll go back to filming!

Although it was a sweet gesture, the reason netizens fell in love even more was that Lee Joon Gi seems to be IU’s biggest fan. Over the years, he has always found the best ways to share support for IU, whether it was being a special guest at her concert, attending her shows as a guest, and much more.
He wasn’t even the only Scarlet Heart star who attended the show as Kang Han Na also attended the show and took a #throwback picture with IU.
Even though a second series of the show seems unlikely, at least fans get their crumbs through IU’s concerts. It shows that, even though years have passed, the cast is still as close as ever.
