Loved your reaction, IU debuted Sept 2008 at the tender age of 15. Rising from a rough childhood to superstar today, she's accumulated an unparalleled 20 PAK record on the kcharts (simultaneous #1 rank) and 85 music show wins in the industry. Composer Lee Min Soo and lyricist Kim Eana once said "Leon [subsequently acquired by KakaoM] had a really hard time then, it almost went bankrupt and IU brought it back to life".Just sharing a snippet from Daum Entertainment that had circulated on Twitter during her comeback season on her vocal ability (Translation credits to @jieunspoetry, not mine) "IU's singing ability has long established its own territory, people even point out if others are similar to the IU-way or IU style. At an early age, she became the most famous star known by men and women of all ages in Korea... In particular, the lyrics of 'Through the Night' are known for their famous phrases that high school Korean language teachers use as examples during classes...Veteran vocalist and vocal trainer Kim Mi-young... said about IU '...In any genre, she used various sounds properly to suit the situation, and now she is like a ghost of sound...there is no drawbacks in IU's vocal range, from songs like Raindrop to songs that require high sensitivity, citing Ending Scene, Palette, and Through the Night as IU's most attractive works". (also by translated by @jieunspoetry, not mine) "The music charts are now simply IU's world...Kim Jin-woo, a senior researcher at Gaon Chart, commented 'To line up the charts with an artist's own songs, would show not only the streaming power of the singer's fandom, but the factor of the general public listening must be considered. IU is the only singer who is currently able to do this...when there's any new release by IU, the traffic on the music charts rise averagely from 20% to 30%...this case would be equivalent to the comeback of six to seven well-known singers/groups simultaneously." --- Her music is much loved, covers included. I personally loved her remakes of old Korean classics in her Flower Bookmark EP albums. Hope she'll someday continue on that series, which she hinted she just might!
Totally agree with you on how comforting IU's voice is. My anxiety got quite bad recently, and listening to IU's music at night has honestly been great for helping me to chill out and relax. She became my ult very quickly after I discovered her music this year, so I'm looking forward to more IU reactions!
Some interesting facts: -the encore is given bcs IU is known for his encore and en-encore in he concert... sometimes it can be looonggg .... -encore song is Hold My Hand (2011), one of her self written songs. That song , from about November 2020 until now is back in chart, and relatively stable in top 10-11. -some of her songs in that clip are like "National song" bcs it become very close to the heart of S.Korean , for example Through The Night, meaning of you, Friday, and Autumn Morning. And yeah, autumn morning first verse sung WITHOUT instrument...
Her and shinee debuted the same year. She has her own show on her channel where she interviews other singers. Shinee was a guest and they sang each other's songs. You could watch it in your spare time, it was really fun to watch
That's episode with Shinee is very good. I'd also recommend her latest with Gong Yoo as they fall right into a good casual conversation. The show with Itzy is also great as Itzy, who are usually forward and chaotic in their videos, are calm and totally in awe of IU.
Thank you so much for this reaction! I am beyond addicted to this killing voice medley of hers. I've been regularly listening to this instead of a "normal" playlists for a while now. Attending an IU concert has moved up towards the top of my bucket list for sure!
if you know how to make music it's not impossible, plus IU is very loved in Korea and worldwide. her Killing Voice has 34 million views and it's the 1st most viewed Killing Voice.
IU's voice is something else on top of her excellent writing, composing and producing skills. I love that i can enjoy her as a singer, actress, host, overall entertainer but still feel like it is not enough. IU the adorably awkward donation angel 🥰
3rd song, Meaning of you and 7th song, Autumn Morning are re-make songs from old Korean music and 5th song, Through the Night is song that have similar vibe with earlier two songs. 'Through the Night' is my all time favorite song from IU.
That was just 1/2 of her songs, someone ask me which was my favorite........all of them. Like you said there is something about her voice. If you dig deeper into her career, you will find she is a beautiful person. She offen says that she needs to work hard for her fans, she doesn't want to let them down. She has a heart of gold. Research I'm a jazzer, but i am addicted to IU, i don't know, if it is music or the person she is that I am drawn to her. That is why I love to watch your reactions you understand the beauty of the instruments and her voice.
Omg thanks, I love your reaction in every videos you make, you're so geniune reactor , by the way IU is a precious gem of South Korea, she's been in the industry for 12years and from then on her songs are always on chart and never been easy to uncharted, because of her PAK (perfect all kill) exist also IU helps me in my insomnia and when i'm feeling down. She is such a blessing to all her uaenas around the world.
For a bit of a different "Classical-favour" you might enjoy listening to her performance with Jung Jae-il (composer for the movie Parasite, also works w/Park Hyo-shin,etc...) playing piano w/a cellist for a rendition of "By the Stream" for a JTBC program called Your Song
She debuted around the same time as SHINee, they talked about their old days in her interview with them on her youtube channel. Please react to her cover of "Sherlock" and SHINee's cover of "Dear Name" on that interview 8:00 is one of my fave songs of her "Through the Night". Fave vocalists/voices in Kpop: IU, MAMAMOO Wheein and Hwasa. I can listen to them all day :)
Tbh I hated slow ballad-ey songs until I heard Through the Night and Dear Name 😩 I was literally bawling my eyes out when I watched her perf in MMA 2017

She was sick during this. She's unbeatable.
she's top of top in Korea.
Her and shinee debuted the same year. She has her own show on her channel where she interviews other singers. Shinee was a guest and they sang each other's songs. You could watch it in your spare time, it was really fun to watch
