1. IU
During childhood, her parents were so deep in debt that her parents couldn’t support both her and her younger brother. So she lived under her grandmother. She was also scammed 의해 ghost companies into paying them money thinking she was accepted as a trainee. She also failed auditions 20 times including a JYP audition.
2. Leeteuk (Super Junior)

3. Yunho (TVXQ)
It’s hard to imagine a guy looking this good sleeping on the streets but apparently, that’s exactly what happened to Yunho during his childhood. When he was in his teens his father went bankrupt and his entire family was kicked out of the house. His family had to resort to sleeping in train stations.
4. Jaejoong (JYJ)
Jaejoong may look like he comes straight from royalty but apparently he suffered from pretty extreme hardships. After running away from 집 he worked several jobs including being a waiter but at times when he did not have enough money to even eat, he donated blood in order to receive small amounts of money so he could feed himself.
5. Sandara Park (2NE1)
Sandara Park’s struggles started from her father who secretly had a family in Korea besides her family. He eventually left them taking all the money with him, leaving Sandara to care for her family financially.
6. Sunggyu (INFINITE)
When he was young his family was so poor that he and his sister had to live at his 프렌즈 house and share a room with him. Like his usual happy self, Sunggyu smiled through all the hardships.
But as young children are bound to, his friend made a hurtful remark about the state of his poverty and since then, Sunggyu carried a bit of hurt inside him even now as a successful singer.
7. Goo Hara (KARA)
Goo Hara, despite looking like nobility was born into poverty and added to this fact, her parents divorced when she was only 7. As a result, she grew up under her grandparents. She was constantly bullied when she was in elementary school and this caused her to harden her resolve to become a singer.
8. Seo Inguk
Super 별, 스타 K completely changed his life for the better not to mention it turned him into this sexy 큰 덩어리, 한 조각 >_< Before he became a singer, his family was so poor that when once in a blue moon they had chicken, they save the 본즈 to cook broth with so they did not have to spend extra money on further meals.

아이유 puts the "A" in "Adorable." We already know she has a baby-face, but with a beanie, she goes back in time and returns as her 15-year-old self. Her taste in beanies is just as adorable, ranging from the monster-ear beanie (far right) to the beanie with a huge fluff ball placed on top.

KBS 2TV's 'Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook' had a Jeju Acoustic Festival (JAF) special on September 13, featuring singers John Park and IU, who saw each other again for the first time in a long time!
아이유 said, "I like acoustic 음악 with its simple composition. I think there's a high level of concentration," and performed an acoustic song with her soothing vocals. When asked if there was anything that came to mind in relation to Jeju Island, 아이유 said, "I like Jeju Island's hallabong the best (a type of clementine). Its sweet taste is the best."
This cued John Park to appear holding a Jeju Island hallabong. He said, "It has been a while since I saw 아이유 since a guest appearance at a concert. Today, she gives off a mature and womanly feel."

아이유 went for a simple girl-next-door look. She paired the 블라우스 with 복숭아 colored shorts and a bright color block shoulder bag. She opted for natural make-up and "apple hair" with loose curls. Na-Eun went in a different direction when styling the blouse. She wore the piece with a white high-waist flared 치마 with black polka dots. She, too, went for a natural look with light make-up and loose curls.
IU's outfit was perfect for her role as Soon Shin. However, I think Na-Eun really shined in this outfit. I 사랑 that she ran away with the feminine look. The 치마 perfectly balances out the attention from the bare shoulders and ruffled sleeves on the blouse.
But in the end both ladies looked beautiful!
