She needed to record in this condition because she didn’t want to postpone the date of the song and the album anymore….IU never disappoint, she is a great singer songwriter composer producer with her own authentic colors.
IU has a strong work ethic and commitment to her fans she hates to disappoint them she also has a high standard for her self and the flue is not a good enough reason ❤ps some one should call Mr park to make her go take a nap 😂
There's always a missing child search after IU's video The IU RUclips channel does not accept commercial ads, but only free missing child ads with the idea of IU
Here are four highly recommended: 1. "Through the Night" MV. 2. IU’s performance at the 2017 MMA Awards Ceremony. 3. "My Sea" live in 2022 IU concert "The Golden Hour". 4. All the "music clips" on IU's youtube channel.
The producer Lee Jong Hoon actually composed her debut song(and many of her newer hits), so they've been working together since she was a teenager. They're very close friends. He's one of the biggest influences in IU's life, both as an artist and as a human being.
IU and Lee Jong Hoon (Jhon Lee), her music producer, is an old partner. He has been her music producer since her rookie days. In the interview, IU said that Lee Jong Hoon is like her soulmate. They know each other, and they like to have a telepathic conversation just like we heard in the video. LJH knew what she wanted to do and what results that she wanted in her recording. They combination works are always amazing. Thank you for making this reaction video. GBU ❤
@user-pb6rq8sy8b her producer has same name with her brother. Kim Jehwi and Seo Donghwan are the her composers not her music producer. You can check the credit of her songs. The music producer mostly is Lee Jong Hoon / Jhon Lee.
Imagine not feeling well and still sounding like that. IU is so hardworking. Her angelic voice makes me feel many emotions. So talented and beautiful. 🤍✨
IU live blows me away. Her 2019 Love Poem Concert videos are dazzling. The 2 released from The Golden Hour (Eight and My Sea) are also fabulous. She is a once in a generation, world-wide talent. Singer-songwriter, producer AND actress. Just wow! On top of that she is a kind, generous and genuine person. Not to mention devastatingly beautiful. Wow. Just Wow.
Based on LWA MV Behind, she already postponed it 3 times because she was sick and she didn't want to postponed it again. She filmed the MV with V early December I think and at this time she was also filming her new drama, her schedule is too full and they need the track recorded ASAP for the editing of the MV. She works too hard 🥺 Since her world tour is coming up this March, I recommend her concert live clips - Blueming live clip from Love poem concert - Hold My Hand live clip from Love poem concert - eight from The Golden Hour concert - My Sea from the The Golden Hour concert
I’m glad you got to IU little more and got to see how wonderful human being she is! Time magazine voted IU one of the most charitable public figure in her age group in the world! IU is one of the most humble person despite how popular and rich she is and she always helps those unknown musicians to keep work on their dreams and provide them the spaces and the environments to practice, etc at no charge! I recommend for you to check her out on 2017 MMA where she sings two songs and what she’s done for the unknown singers, etc! That mad many people cry. Welcome to IU’s rabbit hole, you will fall in love with her just like you did with BTS! I learned about BTS through IU and love both of them! 💜💙
IU is legendary! I'd recommend her live clips of My Sea and Love Poem. Some songs to check out would be Lilac, Coin and Strawberry Moon (which also has an incredible live clip). Welcome to IU's rabbit hole :)
I highly recommend her Live Concert Clips uploaded in her RUclips channel such as 'Blueming', 'Hold my hand', 'My sea' and 'Havana'. Btw, love your reaction.
IU has lots of live clips on her channel. She always sounds great, and the musicians she works with are crazy good. She's also been a producer on her albums for a while. I have so many favorite songs (and probably more favorites I haven't heard from her earlier albums yet) but for the last year, Above the Time, Knees, Ending Sequence, My Sea, dlwlrma, Lilac, Blueming, Friday, Winter Sleep, and Next Stop are some that I play a lot. There are also classics like Through the Night, Palette, Love Poem, and Good Day that are required listening!
John - you've got it exactly. This is what #IU is like, everything she does is meticulous - she overthinks everything. She starts with her lyrics, and her singing and her collaboration with a composer or arranger is all designed to present her ideas. The MV likewise. She never does anything with her voice just to show off. And when she sings this live it will be the same, because she knows in her mind exactly why each little sound is the way it is. (BTW - it is the same skill which makes her acting so good - she goes over and over every little detail of what her character is thinking and saying.)
Hi John! It's hard to believe that she sang this while she was ill. Her voice is so impressive, beautiful, and extremely amazing! Her dedication to doing this song while sick is a true testament of her ultimate talent. Hats off to IU for being such an amazing vocalist!❤
I've went into IU's rabbit hole 3 years ago and have been awed with her artistry as well as with her personality. If I want to make a recommendation say, top 5 or 6 videos of IU that one must watch, I believe they should be these:- 1. IU Killing Voice (which I believe you have watched) 2. IU My Sea Live Clip (2022 IU Concert The Golden Hour) 3. IU Love Poem Live Clip 4. IU Blueming Live Clip (2019 IU Tour Concert Love Poem) 5. IU Best Vocal Moments 6. IU Eight Accoustic Ver. Live Clip
Yes, IU has always put the missing children reports at the end of her videos for years now. I also learned a lot from this session. One of them being... do the music recording first before shooting the music video outside in the cold. ;)
Thank you sharing your reaction.. we uaenas enjoy it.. but it breaks our heart seeing her like that.. but proud despite having a flu.. jieun recorded it flawlessly and beautifully.. continue to support out beloved jieun..❤
IU always has control over the music and is the one making the decisions (which is why is listed as the producer of LWA). She made the decision herself to record while sick so it wouldnt be delayed longer. Always working her hardest that's why we love her ❤
John, three things. First: I could watch you react to vocal recording sessions every day for the rest of my life. Knowing you know what you're talking about and the kindness you bring to your explanations (for those of us who were never pro musicians) makes me so happy. The pressure on the vocal artist to hit not only the note but the feeling and the phrasing, makes me wonder how anything gets recorded at all. Thank you for sharing the technique and artistry of an artist without getting too deep into the weeds. I love it! More please. Second, In her bts of the recording of the MV she says she caught the flu during the mv recording days. I wouldn't be able to stand up if that was me, much less act in the vid (she's the primary producer listed for the mv) having to make unending creative choices during the filming. Then to turn around and go into the studio. There's that line where she turns to V and says I"m going to go into the studio to record this soon. They were using a guide track. I don't know how she did it. I do hope somebody checked on her later! You most likely know this already but the composer of this song is her drummer. I had no idea he had this breadth of emotional expression in his work. I'll have to dive deeper and see what else he's written for her. (The IU's Palette episode with V is THE BEST. He and the drummer really connect.) "My Sea" breaks me every time I hear it. The live versions of her songs are what confirm she's a cut above others. Watch her lives. Thank you again for this fine experience. Really. Take good care of you. Kelly
love this reaction! iu’s really funny haha people think she’s serious bcos of her public image but behind the scenes of her videos she’s always a trip 😂
agree - "if couldn't like her anymore, i definitely do now" everything you said at the end. Seeing her struggling from the cough/cold, but then next second she sang better than anyone else, how?! I can see many artists would be calling it off for the recording, delay the release day as long as they wish to fully recover till they feel like it to pick up the recording, MV filming. Yet all we see is her pushed through, don't wanna delay anyone's schedule. She is a star yet she consider delaying as creating inconvenience to everyone. Highest work ethic! I would love BTS show us something like this too. We knew they put hours of effort to put out the perfect songs with perfect choreo. We see a little of their dance practice, makings but rarely the studio recording. but thinking about it... even like 10mins for each member, that's more than an hour recording behind the scene footage! And they NON-STOPPED producing new songs and already tons of other contents! Guess that's why it's hard for them to put out things like this
Her live clip of MY SEA, HOLD MY HAND are beautiful. She even has behind the scenes for her preparation of her concerts. Have you checked you her SUCHWITA with SUGA? It was a great episode as well
You have asked the impossible, to list just a few of favorite performances of IU. I feel like I do need to give you a little background. IU uses her MV's to add depth and meaning to her songs, that go beyond the lyric's and can span multiple songs over a number of years. Not knowing this someone will listen to a song and think that good, it was an upbeat song. Then they read the lyrics and find out that maybe it isn't that upbeat. Then they watch the MV but not knowing the back story, it still a great MV, but then they watch an explanation video or soneone gives the the explanation and now their half way through a box of tissues. Here is a list of songs that are part of a single story. You & I (2011)MV involves time travel where she set the date on the time machine to Dec. 31st 2019. >Above the Time (2019)MV now in the same time but separated by different dimensions. >Blueming (2019) MV now both are in the same time and dimension but separated by a wall >Strawberry Moon (2021)MV finally together but she isn't wanting to wander. They agree to meet under the Strawberry Moon Through the Night (2017) the beginning of a relationship. Also one of 3 songs she told Suga she wanted to be remembered for. The other 2 are Knees (about her grandmother) and Heart. >With a Determined Heart to Forget You. A cover of a song by a famous Korean folk singer. The ending of the relation ship. There is an MV and 1 concert performance of this song. ruclips.net/video/RCThRT8QPIA/видео.html Blackout (2017) - about having a good time at a party > Last Nights Party, about the next day. Lol ruclips.net/video/qLKTlSTdJ5U/видео.html BBIBBI (2017) MV her most complex MV. Everything in the MV has meaning, represents something. EIGHT (2020) MV feat. Suga. Her 2nd most complex MV and her saddest MV. About her struggle in dealing with the suicide deaths of 3 close friends (Junghyun of Shinee 2017, Sulli of Fx 2019, Goo Hara 2019) all arecrepresentedvin the MV. Sulli being the 2d animated girl in white, Junghyun being his alter ego a dragon and Goo being her favorite pet a lizard. Sulli with the help of Junghyun hear IU's pain and set about to correct that unintended consequence of their action. Her 2022 Golden Hour performance is a must see, but only after watching and understanding the video. Eight - 2022 Golden Hour concert ruclips.net/video/Cxzzg7L3Xgc/видео.html Love Poem live Clip. Perhaps the most beautiful song of IU's certainly the most covered. Believe it or not there are a lot people who know and love this song and know its IU's song but have never heard her sing it.

She is the producer of her new album herself, and also the heroine of a major 2024 annual TV series on Netflix Korea. Her work schedule is very tight and crazy, so the recording of new songs cannot be delayed any longer...
I recommend checking out her eight live perf from her golden hour concert which was the opening track from her most recent concert. I'm sure you've heard she's about to embark on her world tour together with the release of her new mini album so it'll give you a nice little taste of her concerts
Most will rightly recommend her popular songs but you should react to IU live singing of By the Stream with just her vocal, piano (Jung Jaeil) and cello. She said that is one of her best vocal performances.
I havent seen anyone react to this! I only saw her drop the MV behinds. Thanks John! And in the current "climate" to share w/ us on YT. 😊 Dude! You had me @ Dave Mathews... OMG a tidbit I never knew!... I agree her breathy dips and sharp peaks.. a master class
The best takes sometimes are when you struggle because of cold or laryngitis. I have recorded like this and it always turned out to be the best recording. I'm sure you have too. I remember Jin at the Busan concert saying that he was sick and had a bad throat but when he performed his voice shined. It is profeessionally learned technique for sure nothing beats endurance and mind over matter, even hand gestures for the eye to see can help reach those high notes. I love it, the out takes make you appreciate the song presentation more. When she performs it live it will be so much more valuable to the listener that knows the back half.
You need to watch her Behind the scenes of the making of Love Wins All, and you'll get a better understanding of why she was sick while recording this song. Her & V were working in freezing temperatures & she actually caught the flu while making the video. It's really detailed & informative, I hope you do get to react to it.
There's 6 years or more of IU TV, IU Palette, behind-the scenes of concerts, dramas, MVs, live stages. I Recommend the IU video of 'Can't Love You Anymore' with Oh Hyuk. The video of the apple on her head in the thumbnail.
John, if I tell you this is Excellent, will you watch it too? This is IU Interviewing V on her show "Palette". V had just dropped his solo album. When you watch you will see their chemistry together. It is a perfect video to watch, which is so appropriate after watching them work together on the video. And you can see why she thought of casting V because she had been with him recently. They each sing a song. She sings one of his songs from his album which her musical director ad libbed and added on. It's stunning exquisite. V sings. Then they sings a duet. Notable. V keeps complimenting her Live Band. One of the guys in her band wrote "Love Wins All". We find this out on V's version of Behind the Scenes. Be sure and watch that too. You get more info. It's good. Last note. From reading the director's interview...IU is NOT deaf. She is only mute. There is a big clue early on in the video. Guess who figured that out? Roscoe. Yes Roscoe. Enjoy IU's "Palette". It's a great way to get to know her better and hear her sing Live. Lastly. A bonus. She did a show with JHope when he dropped his solo album. And she did a show with Suga too. They both sing with her too. You asked for this. You wanted to hear her sing. This is perfect. With the bonus of the BTS "boys". ruclips.net/video/ebu2cxRXU-I/видео.htmlsi=6YFGd3ikwKBMsT9I
Thank you from a BTS Army for all your good information 💜I feel ashamed after listening to a bit of her music, that I didn't know who she was before V was on her show and there was a clip here on RUclips! No word is good enough to describe how beautiful her voice is💜So now you have given me much to lock into, but has she been in a K-drama as well and if, can you recommend one please? Thank you🎶💜
@@grethepaulsenhotel de luna, scarlet heart ryeo, dream high, my mister and a lot more. She is Jungkook's role model. They are singing her songs when they are still rookie. In some bangtan tv episodes as well as in the soop. In addition, JK's audition song is her song too.☺️ I know everyone is happy now that they've worked together. I hope JK will get his share too next time.😊
Love your reaction! 🥹❤ I highly suggest reacting to IU's MMA live performance of Through the night and Dear Name where she sang along with those musicians who are trying to make a name in the industry 🥹
I love her live “Red Queen” concert clip. She did one from her Palette tour and also her Love Poem tour. Her voice sounds very sexy, the genre style is lovely, and she also wrote the song, as well. To me, she is a true musician and artist, who’s extremely well versed in music theory. Can’t beat a young female musician, lyricist, composer, producer and all around Boss Queen.
Definitely recommend seeing her IU tv behind the scenes that is longer than V behind the scenes though I watched both and loved it! V is also in IU’s behind the scenes but from a different perspective. I can’t believe how hard she works and still has a great sense of humour! To all her fans, amazing! I’m becoming a big fan of hers as ARMY esp after seeing all the collars, interviews between her and the BTS members! 💞💜👏👏👏🤧🫰🏻
So many amazing IU songs and performances. The one I’d suggest as breathtakingly beautiful is Lullaby at sketchbook, during Covid (no audience other than film crew). It is a very difficult song for her (lyrics are sad) - so I don’t think she has ever performed at a concert.
She has a team of musicians(and others) that has followed her, from company to company, for a many years. EDAM Entertainment (이담엔터테인먼트) is a South Korean record label and entertainment agency under Kakao Entertainment. It was founded in 2020 by Bae Jong Han, who has been IU's manager for fifteen years. Kakao owns 52.5% of Edam, BaeJonghan 25%, and 22.5% unknown (probably Lee Jieun(IU))
Check out two of her IU's Palette episodes: Ep. 24 "V'egin Again (with V)" (includes a duet of "Ending Scene" with V) that shows the sweet chemistry between the two that makes the "Love Wins All" MV so endearing and Ep. 19 "IU X Suga" with a duet of "Eight" that may be her only live performance with Suga. There's a fan channel that clips just the duets, but the episodes are worth watching in their entirety. She also had an episode (Ep. 14) with J-Hope. Enjoy!
Actually, she's been putting photos and information of missing children at the end of ALL her videos since a couple of years back because she wanted to bring more attention to this and help reunite families as well!

Through the night Knees Dear name By the stream Flower Obliviate Love poem Blueming Lilac Celebrity Modern times Meaning of you Pieces Album My sea Above the time Zeze Friday The shower Hold my hand Eight I'm totally obsessed with her ballad and jazz...they are insane
Thankyou so much @JohnReavesLive ❤ 🥰 Pls react to Blueming Live clip at her Lovepoem concert.. 💯 one of my fave live performance of her ... Pretty pls ❤❤❤
Please check her songs 'The Red Shoes' live concert ver on 2018 IU's concert DLWLRMA. It's an opening song, but im so amazed how stable her voice despite have to dance to the song 😂
15 Years of Idol/Soloist experience do make herself an expert in producing her own song. P.S: Btw is she trying to keep up with the original schedule so that she can release the song before V(her MV male lead) go to military?
I love IU too! You have to listen to 'Good Day' her vocals are insane! ❤ Also watch her live performance of 'Strawberry Moon' live with the hot air balloon.
I enjoyed very much this reaction! It was super interesting 🤩 I recommend you to listen to "Lullaby" at her Love Poem concert, but I'm ok with anything you'll choose, because there isn't a song by IU that I don't love 😅
"eight" live from golden hour concert!! also there's clip of her doing en-encore on her official youtube, her singing "raindrop" which is a very difficult song after doing the show for 4~5 hours straight 😂
She needed to record in this condition because she didn’t want to postpone the date of the song and the album anymore….IU never disappoint, she is a great singer songwriter composer producer with her own authentic colors.
She had already delayed 3 times before shooting the M/V and had to do the video to the guide track
IU has a strong work ethic and commitment to her fans she hates to disappoint them she also has a high standard for her self and the flue is not a good enough reason ❤ps some one should call Mr park to make her go take a nap 😂
had to get it sone in time to film the mv before V went to military
Her technique is SO good. I can't believe the quality of her voice, even not feeling well. Absolutely amazing.💜
There's always a missing child search after IU's video

@@dewiuaena6493 I didn't know that, Thanks for letting me know😅
IU is a beast when it comes to her music.
Imagine not feeling well and still sounding like that. IU is so hardworking. Her angelic voice makes me feel many emotions. So talented and beautiful. 🤍✨
IU live blows me away. Her 2019 Love Poem Concert videos are dazzling. The 2 released from The Golden Hour (Eight and My Sea) are also fabulous. She is a once in a generation, world-wide talent.

- Hold My Hand live clip from Love poem concert
- eight from The Golden Hour concert

Yes, IU has always put the missing children reports at the end of her videos for years now. I also learned a lot from this session. One of them being... do the music recording first before shooting the music video outside in the cold. ;)
IU and G.E.M. are so good. I would argue that the cold almost made this sound even better.
This is my girl! I love IU so much!
Thank you sharing your reaction.. we uaenas enjoy it.. but it breaks our heart seeing her like that.. but proud despite having a flu.. jieun recorded it flawlessly and beautifully.. continue to support out beloved jieun..❤

hello! the composer is not her drummer but the pianist of her palette band :)
@@jeca_ Thank you so much for this correction! I don't know why I said drummer. Thanks again.
She is queen of UAENA, she is an angel 🥰
You’d love her even more if you watched one of her dramas. She is a fantastic actress too.
damn not many could sing anywhere near that well while sick she has always been impressive

You have asked the impossible, to list just a few of favorite performances of IU.
I feel like I do need to give you a little background. IU uses her MV's to add depth and meaning to her songs, that go beyond the lyric's and can span multiple songs over a number of years. Not knowing this someone will listen to a song and think that good, it was an upbeat song. Then they read the lyrics and find out that maybe it isn't that upbeat. Then they watch the MV but not knowing the back story, it still a great MV, but then they watch an explanation video or soneone gives the the explanation and now their half way through a box of tissues.
Here is a list of songs that are part of a single story.
You & I (2011)MV involves time travel where she set the date on the time machine to Dec. 31st 2019.
>Above the Time (2019)MV now in the same time but separated by different dimensions.
>Blueming (2019) MV now both are in the same time and dimension but separated by a wall
>Strawberry Moon (2021)MV finally together but she isn't wanting to wander. They agree to meet under the Strawberry Moon
Through the Night (2017) the beginning of a relationship. Also
one of 3 songs she told Suga she wanted to be remembered for. The other 2 are Knees (about her grandmother) and Heart.
>With a Determined Heart to Forget You. A cover of a song by a famous Korean folk singer. The ending of the relation ship. There is an MV and 1 concert performance of this song.

Blackout (2017) - about having a good time at a party
> Last Nights Party, about the next day. Lol

BBIBBI (2017) MV her most complex MV. Everything in the MV has meaning, represents something.
EIGHT (2020) MV feat. Suga. Her 2nd most complex MV and her saddest MV. About her struggle in dealing with the suicide deaths of 3 close friends (Junghyun of Shinee 2017, Sulli of Fx 2019, Goo Hara 2019) all arecrepresentedvin the MV. Sulli being the 2d animated girl in white, Junghyun being his alter ego a dragon and Goo being her favorite pet a lizard. Sulli with the help of Junghyun hear IU's pain and set about to correct that unintended consequence of their action. Her 2022 Golden Hour performance is a must see, but only after watching and understanding the video.

Love Poem live Clip.
Perhaps the most beautiful song of IU's certainly the most covered. Believe it or not there are a lot people who know and love this song and know its IU's song but have never heard her sing it.

She is the producer of her new album herself, and also the heroine of a major 2024 annual TV series on Netflix Korea. Her work schedule is very tight and crazy, so the recording of new songs cannot be delayed any longer...
I recommend checking out her eight live perf from her golden hour concert which was the opening track from her most recent concert. I'm sure you've heard she's about to embark on her world tour together with the release of her new mini album so it'll give you a nice little taste of her concerts
She is too good❤❤
Most will rightly recommend her popular songs but you should react to IU live singing of By the Stream with just her vocal, piano (Jung Jaeil) and cello. She said that is one of her best vocal performances.
Yes!!! It's amazing 🤩
This!!
I havent seen anyone react to this! I only saw her drop the MV behinds. Thanks John! And in the current "climate" to share w/ us on YT. 😊 Dude! You had me @ Dave Mathews... OMG a tidbit I never knew!... I agree her breathy dips and sharp peaks.. a master class
The best takes sometimes are when you struggle because of cold or laryngitis. I have recorded like this and it always turned out to be the best recording. I'm sure you have too. I remember Jin at the Busan concert saying that he was sick and had a bad throat but when he performed his voice shined. It is profeessionally learned technique for sure nothing beats endurance and mind over matter, even hand gestures for the eye to see can help reach those high notes. I love it, the out takes make you appreciate the song presentation more. When she performs it live it will be so much more valuable to the listener that knows the back half.
You need to watch her Behind the scenes of the making of Love Wins All, and you'll get a better understanding of why she was sick while recording this song. Her & V were working in freezing temperatures & she actually caught the flu while making the video. It's really detailed & informative, I hope you do get to react to it.
There's 6 years or more of IU TV, IU Palette, behind-the scenes of concerts, dramas, MVs, live stages. I Recommend the IU video of 'Can't Love You Anymore' with Oh Hyuk. The video of the apple on her head in the thumbnail.
IU last fantasy live from Japan
My favorite songs of her is: Havana, Red Queen, The visitor, friday....
John, if I tell you this is Excellent, will you watch it too? This is IU Interviewing V on her show "Palette". V had just dropped his solo album. When you watch you will see their chemistry together. It is a perfect video to watch, which is so appropriate after watching them work together on the video. And you can see why she thought of casting V because she had been with him recently. They each sing a song. She sings one of his songs from his album which her musical director ad libbed and added on. It's stunning exquisite. V sings. Then they sings a duet. Notable. V keeps complimenting her Live Band. One of the guys in her band wrote "Love Wins All". We find this out on V's version of Behind the Scenes. Be sure and watch that too. You get more info. It's good. Last note. From reading the director's interview...IU is NOT deaf. She is only mute. There is a big clue early on in the video. Guess who figured that out? Roscoe. Yes Roscoe. Enjoy IU's "Palette". It's a great way to get to know her better and hear her sing Live. Lastly. A bonus. She did a show with JHope when he dropped his solo album. And she did a show with Suga too. They both sing with her too. You asked for this. You wanted to hear her sing. This is perfect. With the bonus of the BTS "boys". ruclips.net/video/ebu2cxRXU-I/видео.htmlsi=6YFGd3ikwKBMsT9I
Thank you from a BTS Army for all your good information 💜I feel ashamed after listening to a bit of her music, that I didn't know who she was before V was on her show and there was a clip here on RUclips! No word is good enough to describe how beautiful her voice is💜So now you have given me much to lock into, but has she been in a K-drama as well and if, can you recommend one please? Thank you🎶💜
@@grethepaulsenhotel de luna, scarlet heart ryeo, dream high, my mister and a lot more. She is Jungkook's role model. They are singing her songs when they are still rookie. In some bangtan tv episodes as well as in the soop. In addition, JK's audition song is her song too.☺️ I know everyone is happy now that they've worked together. I hope JK will get his share too next time.😊
Love your reaction! 🥹❤ I highly suggest reacting to IU's MMA live performance of Through the night and Dear Name where she sang along with those musicians who are trying to make a name in the industry 🥹
More IU please❤❤
Thanks for this reaction. Love to hear your perspective on vocals and music. You give me a whole new way of listening to music!
Ius My Sea Live.❤
She's just like an angel coming down to earth. Everything about her is wonderful 🥰❤
My fav are love poem and lost child
You need to watch her live now that she announced her world tour. 😀
yes!
Please check out her live clips: Blueming, My Sea, and Love Poem
I love her live “Red Queen” concert clip. She did one from her Palette tour and also her Love Poem tour. Her voice sounds very sexy, the genre style is lovely, and she also wrote the song, as well. To me, she is a true musician and artist, who’s extremely well versed in music theory. Can’t beat a young female musician, lyricist, composer, producer and all around Boss Queen.
I recommend next IU hold my hand. Be sure to react to the live concert performance in her YT channel.
I'm with you.....she is so talented in her singing as well as her acting.
Check out all her live performances:
Love Poem
Hold My Hand
Blueming
Through The Night
Dear Name
My Sea
Definitely recommend seeing her IU tv behind the scenes that is longer than V behind the scenes though I watched both and loved it! V is also in IU’s behind the scenes but from a different perspective. I can’t believe how hard she works and still has a great sense of humour! To all her fans, amazing! I’m becoming a big fan of hers as ARMY esp after seeing all the collars, interviews between her and the BTS members! 💞💜👏👏👏🤧🫰🏻
So many amazing IU songs and performances. The one I’d suggest as breathtakingly beautiful is Lullaby at sketchbook, during Covid (no audience other than film crew). It is a very difficult song for her (lyrics are sad) - so I don’t think she has ever performed at a concert.
SHE DPES THAT AT THE END OF EVERY ONE OH HER VIDEOS
an angel
I recommend "Obliviate". I love that song.
Live performance of Dear Name at MAMA
She has a team of musicians(and others) that has followed her, from company to company, for a many years.
EDAM Entertainment (이담엔터테인먼트) is a South Korean record label and entertainment agency under Kakao Entertainment.
It was founded in 2020 by Bae Jong Han, who has been IU's manager for fifteen years.
Kakao owns 52.5% of Edam, BaeJonghan 25%, and 22.5% unknown (probably Lee Jieun(IU))
My Sea Live from the Golden Hour concert, you'll get emotional, it's magical and Goosebumps all throughout !!
Check out two of her IU's Palette episodes: Ep. 24 "V'egin Again (with V)" (includes a duet of "Ending Scene" with V) that shows the sweet chemistry between the two that makes the "Love Wins All" MV so endearing and Ep. 19 "IU X Suga" with a duet of "Eight" that may be her only live performance with Suga. There's a fan channel that clips just the duets, but the episodes are worth watching in their entirety. She also had an episode (Ep. 14) with J-Hope. Enjoy!
Please try to listen to "My Sea" live during her the Golden Hour concert thanks 🥰
Actually, she's been putting photos and information of missing children at the end of ALL her videos since a couple of years back because she wanted to bring more attention to this and help reunite families as well!
IU is a national little sister of the Korean people.

Thankyou so much @JohnReavesLive ❤ 🥰
Pls react to Blueming Live clip at her Lovepoem concert.. 💯 one of my fave live performance of her ...
Pretty pls ❤❤❤
11:45 The guy is Lee Jonghoon (John Lee), IU's co-producer. They've been working together since before IU's debut. That's more than 15 years~
yup. She saved that last breath in final cut.
Her Production Team and their Vibe together is akin to the Run BTS Captioners 😸
i believe he does back vocals as well. he posted it on ig
Please check her songs 'The Red Shoes' live concert ver on 2018 IU's concert DLWLRMA. It's an opening song, but im so amazed how stable her voice despite have to dance to the song 😂
Have you done reacting “MY SEA “ live clip? It’s amazing
IU "Rain Drop" Live
15 Years of Idol/Soloist experience do make herself an expert in producing her own song.
P.S: Btw is she trying to keep up with the original schedule so that she can release the song before V(her MV male lead) go to military?
This bro is killing the music industry even in this condition🔥
She's Korea singing goddess
definitely you need to check out through the night and dear name. both are such a great songs with a beautiful meaning.
IU - the visitor
Iu ❤ soothing voice
IU AND TAEHYUNG ARE BRILLIANT TOGETHER. I CRY EVERYTIME I WATCH IT AND I WATCH THIS EVERY CHANCE I GET. GREAT ACTING.❤
IU is beautiful in the drama : Hotel Deluna
(Live ver) My Sea. Hands Down for me. It was during her Golden Hour Concert.
Golden Hour concert Eight Live performance
I love IU too! You have to listen to 'Good Day' her vocals are insane! ❤ Also watch her live performance of 'Strawberry Moon' live with the hot air balloon.
love love loved thiss
I enjoyed very much this reaction! It was super interesting 🤩
I recommend you to listen to "Lullaby" at her Love Poem concert, but I'm ok with anything you'll choose, because there isn't a song by IU that I don't love 😅
GOAT
My fave iu lullaby is "through the night" you should check the MV
I'm not actually sure if she has an mv of her song Knees but that's also a fave
"Blueming" (Live) from IU.
"eight" live from golden hour concert!!
also there's clip of her doing en-encore on her official youtube, her singing "raindrop" which is a very difficult song after doing the show for 4~5 hours straight 😂
You should watch on their channel: My Sea: The Golden Hour
I love your reaction!
You should hear hold my hand live
Please check also her MMA 2017 performance I'm sure your gonna love it ☺️
The guide sounds so good already, i believe she sang that too right
