IU's pictures in Japan resemble 'gravure'?


Some photographs of IU in Japan have got fans talking.

On the January 28th, photos of IU in Japan appeared on an online community under a thread titled, “IU in Asakusa, Toori no Still Cut”. The photographs showed a girlish and innocent IU as she enjoyed herself in Japan. In one picture, IU can be seen posing with a sand writing she did saying, “IU desu!” (“I’m IU!”).

Netizens revealed all sorts of different reactions. “Have fun in Japan!”, “I couldn’t tell if this was gravure or not,” and “The more I look at these, the more charming you become”.

[TL Note: Gravure is a popular industry in Japan. It can vary from normal photoshoots, to bikini shoots. Basically, gravure tends to be high quality photos of women that are professionally taken. I can’t really explain it well in English since…gravure is gravure ^^;]
