IU showed off her much talked about book in a newly released picture. On March 15th, a picture of IU holding a book, titled "Passion, Saying A Thing Like That", on her head was unveiled on an internet site. The book was previously seen in March 14th's broadcast of MBC's "Come to Play", and when IU revealed the contents of her personal backpack, she took out a book pictured above, introducing it as 'the book that I received as a gift which I'm going to start reading  today'. At the time, she was teased by MC Yoo Jae Suk because the book looked untouched. He appropriately said, "It's a new book. Did you just put it in your backpack today?" Netizens have commented that IU might have taken a picture with the book to emphasize that she has really begun reading it. Some have commented that she took a picture to explain being teased humorously by the MC. They commented, "Is IU finally reading the book?" and "The book was really good. Your taste is similar to mine". Doesn't everybody prefer to have their books looking new? Source: SPN via Nate
