IU is once again proving to be a global power and name as her recent controversy with "Zeze" has even grabbed the attention of British news outlet, 'The Guardian.'


While the article glossed over making any commentary on the actual controversial nature of the issue, it does reveal that the book her song was based on, 'My Sweet Orange Tree,' has seen a great revival as people scramble around to get their hands on a copy and read it for themselves.
