On October 11, IU appeared on KBS 2TV's 'Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook' to promote her third album 'Modern Times.'
However, she was not the only guest! Choi Baek Ho, who was one of the artists featured on her album, also made a surprise appearance. IU explained that her father used to sing Choi Baek Ho's "Against Romance" a lot in the karaoke. She said, "I thought the song was the most charismatic song in the world. I also sang it often in concerts."
Choi Baek Ho revealed that he first met IU while backstage for the special 100th episode of 'Sketchbook.' She approached him asking for his signature so she could give it to her father.
IU said she wanted to be a sunbae like Choi Baek Ho, who waited until she was done recording so they could have pleasant conversations.
Lastly, Choi Baek Ho said about IU, "This is only the start. She is a talented person."
