A promotional poster with IU has sparked an online debate after a video from behind the scenes came out, leading people to wonder if her body proportions were changed digitally.

The argument started when people compared the official poster to footage from the original shoot. Some people said that IU's legs looked longer in the final image. The conversation quickly spread to other online communities, where fans and netizens had different things to say.

According to posts collected by theqoo, people wondered if the picture had been changed to make IU's proportions look better. But a lot of people didn't care about the problem. They said that the differences could be explained by lighting, angles, and styling.

One person defended IU's natural proportions by saying, "IU has always had long legs."

Another person brought up styling choices and said, "But isn't it obvious when you wear high heels?"

Several people who commented said that the debate itself was pointless, pointing out IU's long-standing image and body. One post said, "IU has never been short. It's just that her body frame is small."

Some people said that the project was getting more attention because it was so famous. "This is such a non-issue. Seems like this is creating a lot of buzz because IU and Byun Wooseok are the leads," referencing Byun Woo-seok.

Some people who answered said they were upset about how much attention the artist was getting. One person said, "Sigh... why are you guys like this towards IU?"

More comments showed that people were more open to editing promotional materials. "Who cares if they stretched her legs longer or not? Even commoners edit their own photos." said one post.

Another person said something similar: "No but who cares if there was editing involved in the main poster or not."

One person said,"It's a promotional poster so they can edit whatever they want. If her legs appeared short, then she'd get hate again. People are pathetic."

Others said again that the debate might be too much. One user said, "IU's proportions are good though... making a big deal out of nothing.."

This conversation, which Pannchoa also talked about, proves that celebrities in the entertainment industry are always under scrutiny, especially when it comes to how they look.

There is no official word about the poster, but the video that came back into the light once again has brought more talk about digital manipulation, beauty standards, and K-pop fandoms.

Despite the controversy surrounding her, she is one of the most renowned artists in South Korea, and her work is getting much attention both at home and abroad.
