Well, some may not know the true meaning of the song, it talks about relationships, at first they will be overwhelmed with love and then get used to each other and it becomes a routine and then parting may happen, she describes in the song that she knows these things but let's ignore them and add sweet words that make us forget the truth (jam) The meaning is clever in a way that makes you think she means something else. IU is playing with us in a jam-like way. I love this girl. She's really different. Everything she sings has a wonderful meaning. I fall in love with her more every day than the day before.
she explained it before sayin that, both man and woman in relationship are aware of the circles of it (in love-stable-fight-break up) so she asks for him to please tell and show her these sweet things, love, affection etc continuously till she become a fool of love even tho all of those are lies so they relationship could get longer. Bcs they both know in the end it will end anyway so just enjoy it as much as we can. Y'know, do not just keep a fruit as it is, add some sugar and make a jam so it will be last longer Btw u really need to watch jamjam live performance. specifically a fancam of jam jam at love poem, seoul concert 191123
One of part of IU's movie Persona called "Collector" was inspired by this song. I know you're going to react to this movie on Patreon eventually ;) "Director Im Pil-Sung has explained that in making this film, he was inspired by IU's song Jam Jam - which is essentially about a non-committal and superficial relationship between a man and woman, with jam serving as a metaphor for the sugar-coating of lies and pretensions binding them together".
IU's b-side songs are usually a bit hard to understand. I need to read a lot of article just to understand a song. It's like decoding a da vinci code or something. The way she thinks is just out of the world. So yeah, you're going to need a lot of explanation to understand this song 😁
it's iu.. it's veeeery iu.. unique, not afraid to try something different, and unexpected.. it's make iu not boring artist and many people waiting whats new from iu.. so, it's uri weird jenius iu 😊❤.. once again.. welcome to iu's world aaron! u have to listen side track from iu more often.. and i always recommnd you 'zeze' from iu 😊
iu’s explanation for the lyrics: “As for the lyrics, I first sent her (Sunwoo Junga) what I already had in prose form. I told her I always wanted to talk about it. So it's kind of about that moment before a couple of lovers start their relationship and genuinely fall in love with each other. They have to define their relationship and find out where the other is in terms of past relationship experiences. "You've dated other people before, right? Me too." Even though the details are different each time, the two of you already have an idea of what the relationship will be like. At first everything is great, you fall in love, you get comfortable with each other, then you start to get angry with each other, then you realize they're not the only one, and then they split up. There is a cycle to this. Even if it's a fact that you and I both know, let's not pretend. It's unavoidable, so let's dive right in and love each other as strongly as we can, as if you can't live without each other. There's also no need to just be true. Layer on the lies one on top of the other. Make it look the best you can and shower it with as much love as you can. The song kind of has a cynical meaning behind it” and u can interpret as a sex song too lol 😂 i must say that this wasn’t the best lyric video but it’s really hard find one that’s faithful to jieun’s lyrics so it’s okay 👍🏻
@@mikeduplessis8069 In Korea, she kinda has to do that. But yeah, this song is still about relationships, but not love, I'd say it is more about passion and sex, maybe even casual-like in its shallowness, much like korea's dating culture. So it fits, she just can't be upfront about it.
For those who don't get it. Jam is a metaphor for how one perceives love. Adding sugar to something makes it last longer by an artificial process. Basically you are masking something that it is doomed to rot. It's fake, but it's sweet and tasty and maybe that's all that matters :)
actually many of iu lyrics may not be delivered the best when translated as meaning goes deeper in korean anyways to get the true meaning search in some google websites where it is explained. this song actually grows on you when you get the actual meaning of love happening nowadays (which iu has compared love to a jam like substance which is sweet and not good for health but you crave for it even after knowing about the bad things in it and you pretend to be deceived by love ) may not be the best but hope you understand
@aaronfreeman you know, the lyrics is pretty obvious and actually so deep & meaningful. You just have to wider your view on IU as an artist. That's who she is. She's unpredictable & complex (in a good way tho). She won't do the same thing over and over again. Same goes to her lyrics & acting as well.
Its simple. IU is being picked up by a guy whose trying to sweet-talk her but she just wants to cut to the chase and get down for some hot sexy time. Some of those lines were hardly even metaphors! "I'll keep it pickled so it won't rot for a long time" is pretty much a direct quote out of episode 2 of IU's Netflix show 'Persona'. When you watch it you'll be surprised at what's being pickled.
She's genius. This song produced by seonujeog-a, a singer-songwriter. She's also genius and famous with her outstanding musical talents. I think it's one of few her songs about sensual stuff. And this song Jamjam was peaked on 5th in Korea music chart.(melon)
Maybe the song talks about bad relationships, which represents the jam, with the sugar that is harmful to the body, she knows that this relationship is harmful and toxic but she wants to continue it, just like when we eat sugar because it is delicious although it is harmful to our body, and maybe the song talks about relationships that are For fun, not for love, as no one cares about the other person's true feelings, they just want to complete their relationship, and since the bad things are sugar, their relationship is jam, as it needs a large amount of sugar and is made while the sugar dissolves in it, IU said in the song that she will keep jam well In order not to rot for a long time, a sign of the person who does not want to break off the relationship even though it takes a lot of effort to maintain it, the song is really deep and has many interpretations and that's why I love it, IU does not reveal the hidden meaning of her songs because she enjoys seeing the interpretations of the audience and their perception of her songs, so you will find Several really different interpretations and you don't have to believe one without the other, they all make sense and they all great
This is one of my favorite IU songs actually, though I didn't look up the lyrics until much later. Just the sound of it gives me a feeling of deja vu, like I heard the song before, even though I didn't.
In '23' [CHAT-SHIRE], she was confused between what she likes and the standards of society. In 'palette' [PALETTE], I know you like me I know you hate me I got this I think I know myself a little bit now ♧..At twenty-five, she begins to love herself by accepting all aspects of herself positively without being swayed by others' evaluations. Although she is still not a mature adult, she now has the courage to admit herself. 'Jam jam' is also a palette album. It's okay to be stupid, so let's do anything It doesn't matter what the truth is. I don't care. The meaning doesn't matter. Melt it all, so it's very shapeless. Look, it's all over my body. love love love ♧..She knows that love will end someday, but she says that she wants to love like that, as if it would never end*.*※ ☆These fireworks won't end(dlwlrma[PALETTE]_IU)
As she explained in the album showcase, this song is about preserving a dull and faded relationship by sweet faking it. It'll be over at some point anyway, so just make it sweet as long as we can by covering it with sweet lies over and over. No need meaningful thing or full honesty.
Lol I think you are very pure 😐 The second episode of Persona was inspired by this song and it’s the best way to portray it, even if I think the tone is not exactly the same. Tbh not being obvious is a big part of its beauty and the sensuality of the song, it’s about relationships and the fakeness, how we all now the interests of each part and keep pretending not to. People in the comments explained it amazingly already. Always was my favorite in the album 💿
Live performance of this is a must 😅 Aaron, while you're listening to her bsides, why don't you react to her song "Someday" as well? It's an OST of her drama "Dream High". But for this song, hope you react to it's live performance 😊
Best part of this song is live performance in her concert Aaron 👁️👄👁️. The lyrics are another level, she's not afraid to do what she wants.. it's about a fling, she's flirting, she doesn't want a real relationship, she doesn't care about honesty, she just wanna have some fun.
Hmmmm... Lets reword the translation "I'll keep it pickled so it won't rot for a long time" to instead read 'I'll preserve it so its be a long time before it goes bad'. And lets remember a common item to be picked is a cucumber... c'mon, get the metaphor....
I'm pretty sure the song lyrics are referring to something s**ual, especially saying "I need sugar, I need something bad for my body" "Don't look for the meaning, that damn meaning, just melt me" "Look, it's all over my body (love love love)". I think the song about not needing love, only caring about the body, if you know what I mean. That's just my interpretation.
yg udah tau iu lama, pasti tau ini iu banget.. ga bisa ditebak, multi gendre, weird jenius etc.. malah itu semua yg bikin iu ga ngebosenin dan longlast fav. dan aaron ini teste nya anak muda jaman sekarang bgt yang seleranya general dan mudah ditebak, wkwk.. kaget dia klo denger side track nya iu yg ga biasa 😆 selalu diluar ekspektasi iu tuh mass 😆
I'm saying this for millionth time. Don't believe in these translated videos. Almost all of them has multiple mistakes at least, even ones with multiple million views(even official channels put some awkward ass translation). I specially feel more bad for artists like IU because they really care big time about their lyrics but these lyrics channels copy some google translater-ish lyrics out of nowhere and begin race of 'who uploads the video first' game. I see this as splashing black ink on some masterpiece artist worked very hard on.

I wish you should try listening to Jam Jam's live Concert in Seoul. I think you will change your perspective about it.

IU has a bit of a reputation for giving 'diplomatic' explanations of songs that have obvious sexual meaning. The song Ze Ze is another example.
@@mikeduplessis8069 In Korea, she kinda has to do that. But yeah, this song is still about relationships, but not love, I'd say it is more about passion and sex, maybe even casual-like in its shallowness, much like korea's dating culture. So it fits, she just can't be upfront about it.

this is the best song to ever exist. the lyrics are genius and i relate to them in a spiritual level
Jam Jam Love Poem Concert Seoul Live Stage is the 💣💣💣💣

The most sexiest song ever 😍
Just imagine you're in a party and jam jam is on😍
(Also this is the strangest comment that i left🤭)
9:15 Aaron: I don't get it, guys! I don't get what is this song about!
9:23 IU : Let's stop trying to know its meaning, the damn meaning. 😆
The meaning is not what you think!! The meaning is deep and wonderful!
@@IU-so4uf Don't worry, it's just a comment because the timing is fun😉
@@ysysys5 I noticed that as well🤭
In '23' [CHAT-SHIRE], she was confused between what she likes and the standards of society.
In 'palette' [PALETTE],
I know you like me
I know you hate me
I got this
I think I know myself a little bit now
♧..At twenty-five, she begins to love herself by accepting all aspects of herself positively without being swayed by others' evaluations. Although she is still not a mature adult, she now has the courage to admit herself.
'Jam jam' is also a palette album.
It's okay to be stupid, so let's do anything It doesn't matter what the truth is.
I don't care. The meaning doesn't matter. Melt it all, so it's very shapeless.
Look, it's all over my body.
