On March 3, the National Tax Service (NTS) Department named celebrities IU and Lee Seo Jin as a part of their 2020 model tax payers list via the department's official website.
The two stars will be receiving presidential commendations of recognition for their model tax payments, as the NTS commended IU for diligently paying her high taxes without fail since her debut in 2008. Furthermore, the NTS applauded IU for her role in expanding the Hallyu as well as modern culture industry.
Regarding actor Lee Seo Jin, the NTS commended him not only for diligently paying his taxes, but also in his activities as a promotional ambassador of 'Habitat for Humanity' in Korea and volunteering in various fields.

Does that mean iu is the 2nd or 3rd kpop artist who receives that important award?.
I only remember that Yoona is the 1st kpop artist as well as kpop idol actress to be awarded the presidential awards and also become the ambassador for IRS (tax payer). yoona making history.
I hope that my kpop bias'll receive that important award someday too. :)
