IU (Lee Ji-eun), known as South Korea's "National Sister," has a sweet appearance, a clear and highly distinctive voice, and excellent songwriting talents. She has faced almost no negative reviews since debuting, and her positive personality has won her countless fans. On the 19th, she appeared on her friend Yoo In-na's YouTube show, revealing that she suffers from Skeeter Syndrome, which has drawn attention from a large number of fans.
IU disclosed that she has a rare condition known as Skeeter Syndrome, with severe allergic reactions to mosquito bites. The bitten areas can become swollen, blistered, and in severe cases even ooze pus and be very painful, requiring antibiotics. IU mentioned that when she was a child bitten by mosquitoes, some areas were so severe that the skin became necrotic, leaving scars. "The areas where I was bitten by mosquitoes as a child now have necrotic skin. Even if a needle is stuck in those areas, I won't feel anything, so I hate mosquitoes more than cockroaches."#
