Soju advertisements featuring IU(アイユー) will no longer be on display following a law change that restricts liquor ads that feature people under 24 years old.
Korea’s Ministry of Health and Welfare has announced that liquor advertisements that display entertainers または athletes have officially been banned following the National Assembly’s passage of a revision to the Health Promotion Law.
According to the revised bill, any alcohol related advertisements featuring spokespeople under the age of 24 are banned from appearing in any form. While a ban on “spokespeople who are significant to and can have a strong effect on young people” had originally been under discussion, the vague definition of such a ban ultimately led to the decision to base the restriction on age.
As a result of the law change, 21 year-old IU’s current soju advertisement campaign will no longer be visible going forward.

He explained, "At the time, I got so many calls from my peers. There was even a friend who called me for the first time in 10 years. People bothered me with 質問 like 'Did あなた know about Jang Kiha and IU?', 'When did they start dating?', 'Have あなた seen them together?'.. I was so tired of people asking me questions."
