Yet, they never actually got to spend much time together during the shooting of Broker, as most of their scenes were filmed at different times.
According to Lee Joo Young, they finally got the chance to hang out properly when they shared a hotel room on the last day of the Cannes Film Festival, where they got to really talk together. Now they will even be doing promotions together in Japan at the end of the month.
We’re getting to know each other better, and becoming closer. We’re planning to go to Japan together for our promotion on the last week of June as well.

Now that they’ve gotten to spend time together and get to know each other, there is one wholesome thing that Lee Joo Young has learned about IU…
IU has this energy that makes you feel happy even if you are just with her, doing nothing.

…and it probably won’t surprise fans. IU’s trip to Cannes alone was enough to prove how kindhearted she is, as she proved she’s the queen of fanservice, and even showed how protective she is of her fans, asking her bodyguards not to push fans upon her arrival at Incheon Airport.
