Pls react to the video “IU EIGHT MV explained” you will be mindblown at how genius she really is. She is legit the EMINEM of kpop. The most genius lyricist and song writer in kpop history. Theres a couple videos explaining how her music videos are interconnected and have their own universe/diff connected dimensions
She has songs to give positive mood during the morning, she has songs to calm you when you sleep at night. She has songs for every season. Like she's giving no reasons not to hear her songs every single day in every season. IU's performance is not complete without ENCORE!!!
I hope you take a deep dive into IU. I discovered her through her acting as well, although through a difference Kdrama, My Mister which is her best acting performance ( I haven't seen the movie Broker, for which she was nominated as Best Actress at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival). There is something much to discover about her. I am sure you know that she debuted in 2008 t the age of 15. But do you know that she started auditioning at age 13 and was rejected 20, count them 20 times, before she was signed by a small company and debuted 10 months later. Did you know that she grew up poor after a loan her parents had co-signed was defaulted upon and the family lost everything. IU and her younger brother were sent to live with their grandmother, who lived in a 1 room flat (similar to the one she lives in My Mister) that became so badly infested with roaches they entire complex was torn down. They then moved in with other relatives where she was often scolded for trying to become a singer and suffered abused from her uncle and cousin being told repeated that she would never become a singer. She was also scammed by a person posing as a President of an entertainment company, before she signed with the small company, and lost her grandmother's life savings. Through all of this she remained positive and never hated any of those who took advantage her and abused her. A aspect of her that remains to this day. Did you know that she has had more #1 hits, more All Kills and more Perfect All Kills than any other group or soloist in Korean history by a factor of 3. Her songs have been on the charts in Korea twice as long as the next closest person or group. Did you know that she be came the first Kpop singer to perform on a 360 degree stage at her 2019 Love Poem concert in Seoul. That she became the 1st Female to headline a concert at the Olympic Stadium in Seoul in Sept of 2022 with her Golden Hour Concert. Did you know that she is current suffering from an issue with her left ear where the tube that connects the ear to the throat doesn't close, often remind open which can be painful and makes it at times impossible to use her In- Ear piece for her left ear. This started to become an issue sometime after her 2019 concert and continues today. You will often see her performing with the left ear piece hanging down. The fact that she can still sing as great as she does with this issue just goes to demonstrate how greatca singer she is. Did you know that she had seriously considered retiring from singing, making the Golden Hour Concert her last? The reasons being among others the issue with her hearing, and that she never even had dreamed of performing on a stage as big as the Holden Hour stage, considering that performance as her crowning achievement, and as she admitted to her Golden Hour audience, that she had been suffering from burn out. But her fans excitement leading up to that concert had re-energized her. This all lead to her decision to not only keep performing for her fans but to blaze new trails. Her most current Mini album. The Winning, Includes 2 songs that tell the story of her making that decision. No Kpop singer who is a pure soloist (meaning has never been part of a group) has ever turned the US and Europe. In December of 2023 she announced her first World Tour that included 2 cities in Europe and 6 in the US. She has stated that the pressure of that tour caused her many sleepless nights. When tickets went on sale for the US concerts, they sold out all 6 arena just as quickly as her Korean and Southeast Asia tours sell out, in under 15 minutes all of the approximate 90,000 tickets were gone. I attended the Atlanta concert myself. Did you know that she is known for the lenght of her encores? Not sure when this started, but I first became aware of it when I watched a behind the scenes RUclips video of her 10th Anniversary Concert in Seoul. After the concert had ended they were showing a video made by her staff telling their stories of working for IU. IU had come back up but off stage to watch the video. She was amazed that the fans were all still their watching the video. After it ended she went out on stage to again thank her fans and then said she woukd sing a few more songs. Over two hours later she finally wrapped things up. This was do different and do amazing I couldn't believe it. It has since become a thing in concert culture. It is referred to as her en-encore. And the other unique aspect of her en-encore is that she performs it in her street clothes. And I will end this comment with bit of information. In January of 2023 Rolling Stone Magazine issued an update to their Greatest Singers of All Time. IU became the 1st Korean to make the list. I hope you continue your IU journey. The IU rabbit is deep and wondrous. Come on it.
I wouldn’t compare solo artists with groups Personally though, before I stared following kpop I had heard of blackpink before I heard of iu, although I might’ve heard a couple of her songs without knowing it was her. It was also iu (and taeyeon) that got me into kpop so they’ll always be in my top 3 solo artists
I don't know why would you bring up other artists when IU herself dedicated "shh" stage to honor thier career, I think it's not cool and disrespectful, even though I only listen to K-pop for IU, please let's not be that type of fans
'Hold My Hand' became an encore song because video clips of IU singing it at a concert went viral, and the song is rising on the charts again. It can't be included in the main setlist because she was 19(18int) when she sang this song.
You've got to check out IU's live performances on her channel! They are amazing and will blow you away. Along with the fan chants, it may be the hype you are looking for!
The story of IU is insane, but a lot of people dont know she was written in the stars. When her management was about to drop her they consulted a “fortune teller”. They were told IU will become the nation’s favourite and when she does they must move (relocate). IU released GOOD DAY which earned her the nickname THE NATIONS LITTLE SISTER, so… They moved. Days later their old office building was levelled by a landslide. PS She is also an advanced police officer with promotions due to her work with schools and helping to find lost people. She also fed the president Yoon protesters. They should just crown her at this point.
If you like hype, try some of her more up beat concert performances on RUclips, like blueming from the love poem tour, or shopper and I stan u fro the recent tours. Certainly concert lives show off her performance skills
"That tiny little hand". IU is actually on record complaining that her hands stopped growing when she hit puberty so she now has tiny little hands. She was comforted by someone telling her those were the type of hands men like to hold.
Finally been waiting for this since I recommended a long time ago. Also not you trying to Gatekeep your Government name when you told us what it was on Patreon back in 2020 lol, Also if you care just letting you know the editor did not remove it from the video. Great Reaction!
I see you have alot of TWICE song in your playlist. You may one to react to TWICE on IU's Palette show. [IU's Palette] Merry TWICEmas to U ahead (With TWICE) Ep.30: ruclips.net/video/2rwrOtpQCl4/видео.htmlsi=h7zmtMOWV5dYzqOU
would you try and check out another killing voice by AKMU? they are somehow different from other kpop groups, which the brother composes all their songs, I like both of their voices
Since you’re already checking out girl’s generation, I recommend taeyeon’s solo works, including her killing voice. Personally I’m much more familiar with her solo work than with SNSD as her (and iu) are who got me into kpop. She just about edges iu as my favorite solo idol

IU THE LITERAL GOAT OF KPOP. The word youre looking for is “healing” her voice is healing. She has a lot of R&B collab songs youd love
She is actually sick during this performance
Yeah, pretty sure that's why she said it was a bit awkward 😊
She has songs to give positive mood during the morning, she has songs to calm you when you sleep at night.
She has songs for every season.
Like she's giving no reasons not to hear her songs every single day in every season.

Thank you for the great IU reaction !
Very much appreciated.
There's a reason IU is the #1 Female artist in Korea. Ahead of Black pink, Twice, Taeyeon, and BoA
I wouldn’t compare solo artists with groups
Personally though, before I stared following kpop I had heard of blackpink before I heard of iu, although I might’ve heard a couple of her songs without knowing it was her. It was also iu (and taeyeon) that got me into kpop so they’ll always be in my top 3 solo artists
No need to mention other artists, all of them are the queens in their respective sides
I don't know why would you bring up other artists when IU herself dedicated "shh" stage to honor thier career, I think it's not cool and disrespectful, even though I only listen to K-pop for IU, please let's not be that type of fans
boa is the the hero of kpop, show respect you casual
Twice was on IU’s show Palette very recently.
Facts
Also thought about mentioning that when I saw you shirt ;-)
That lilac almost took me out😂😂
Lol the epiphany got me lol
Watch Moon Lovers Scarlett Heart Ryeo, one of IU's best KDramas
'Hold My Hand' became an encore song because video clips of IU singing it at a concert went viral, and the song is rising on the charts again. It can't be included in the main setlist because she was 19(18int) when she sang this song.
It is the ost of one of my favorite dramas. Best Love or the Greatest love.
If you know more about her, her personality, how humble and amazing is she, you gonna fall in love deeper and deeper like us ( uaena ). Good luck bro
You've got to check out IU's live performances on her channel! They are amazing and will blow you away. Along with the fan chants, it may be the hype you are looking for!

Days later their old office building was levelled by a landslide.
PS
She is also an advanced police officer with promotions due to her work with schools and helping to find lost people.
She also fed the president Yoon protesters.
They should just crown her at this point.
Pallette is my favorite IU song
Her voice is hypnotizing
If you like hype, try some of her more up beat concert performances on RUclips, like blueming from the love poem tour, or shopper and I stan u fro the recent tours. Certainly concert lives show off her performance skills
"That tiny little hand". IU is actually on record complaining that her hands stopped growing when she hit puberty so she now has tiny little hands. She was comforted by someone telling her those were the type of hands men like to hold.
Yes. Thats true. I find them beautiful. Lol. Its “feminine” for me at its highest and it fits her.
