Singer�IU has recently been working diligently to shed her current image of being an unskilled dancer on SBS's 'Kim Yuna's Kiss & Cry.' It has been reported that IU practices skating every day to rid herself of the stigma that she can't dance. On the 16th, Loen Entertainment stated in an interview, "In taking on the the challenge of figure skating and ridding herself of her image, IU doesn't skip a day of practice and is continuing to practice diligently." The official later added, "IU has recently had a lot on her plate lately with her busy schedule... On shorter days of practice, she skates for 3 hours. On longer days, she skates for 5 hours. Whatever the case may be, she is constantly practicing to improve her image... Seeing that IU lacks dancing talents, we've been watching the show and saw that her development was slow. Even so, she constantly practices with patience... While she has bruises all over, she is working diligently to show a good image of herself." Although IU is not the best skater on the show, her dedication and hard work is quite impressive. Source: TV Daily via Nate News
