Singer-songwriter IU will hold two more concerts - on Dec. 30 and Dec. 31 - at the Seoul Sports Complex, Yonhap reported.

The singer, 22, has been performing in Seoul, Busan and Gwangju to sold-out crowds. Her agency, LOEN Tree, said she has added the dates to “return the fan support.” Tickets for the concerts will be available on Interpark on Dec.10.

The singer, who recently made headlines for her romance with rocker Jang Ki-ha, has been engulfed in controversy over her new song, “Zeze.”

A local company that published the popular Brazilian children’s book “My Sweet Orange Tree” criticized her for lyrics in the song. IU apologized for “hurting people’s feelings,” but has continued performing the song.
