IU has decided to keep her loyalty to her manager of 12 years.

Bae Jong Han was her manager since 2008, and IU has signed with the new label that he has founded, which is a subsidiary of her old label KakaoM. She will be the new label's first artist. Under her new label, IU will spend a busy year as she has been for the past few years.

Best of luck to IU!

Artists can't even bring all their members to another agency whereas IU is bringing her whole staff team. This is commendable.

IU is incredibly loyal and generous to her staff. It is just so wonderful to see someone like her, who has achieved so much, remain humble and grounded. She is an idol in so many more ways than one.
