Park Bo Gum and IU rocked the nation and the K-drama world with their performances in When Life Gives You Tangerines. Since then, the two have maintained a close friendship and speak highly of each other whenever possible, including today, when the songstress-turned-actress surprised him by appearing during the final shoot of the show he hosts, The Seasons: Park Bo Gum's Cantabile. Her nice gesture moved him to tears and left a pleasant impression on everyone who observed it.

IU's sweet message for Park Bo Gum

In a video clip from the set of the music show, IU could be seen saying, "As much as this is your final shoot of The Seasons, I wanted to congratulate you via this video message. When you had your first broadcast, I said I would definitely be on the show. I regret being unable to honour my pledge to be a guest. Park Bo Gum may be seen shaking his head at her sorry feelings, telling her that everything is well.

"I'm terribly sorry. But you know my heart is genuine and that I watch the broadcast virtually every week, right? You were the best MC. I was able to experience vocalist Park Bo Gum, performer/musician Park Bo Gum, which was fantastic. You were fantastic on Cantabile. I apologise for not appearing. "I am here." And in stepped IU, covering her face behind a flower bouquet that she offered to him, kneeling down and rubbing his back.
