Korean songstress IU is busy gearing up to make her comeback to the local music scene.
On Tuesday, a rep from her agency Loen Entertainment told 10Asia in a phone interview that IU has recently returned from shooting her music video in Italy and will drop her new album sometime in May.
In the meantime, the teenage songstress is preparing for her nationwide tour "REAL FANTASY," which is slated to kick off at Kyunghee University's Peace Palace in Seoul, Korea on June 2.
She will then continue to perform in Ulsan, Jeonju, Suwon, Busan and Daegu.
The artist recently made her debut into Japan with her single "Good Day" and will soon hold several shows in the country starting April 21.
