He's the sweetest artist I've ever seen, I really wish he's doing well. I know he's sacrificing a lot by giving representation to people with mental disorders but I truly believe dreamers would love to see him take the best care of himself even if it means he takes time for himself. I love him so much and I'm so grateful for everything he's doing: his music, his words, his honesty. ❤️🩹
ur comment is seen on his instagram story🤭🤭
@@alxrod5995 NO WAY I'M CRYING
@@feversnooYes way 😭
@@feversnoo YESS CONGRATSS!! he has probably read it too 🥹
y'all are so kind 😭😭 I love dreamers so much
i could literally spend an entire day listening to ian talk and wouldn't feel the time passing... he is so deep, open and i'm so glad we got to hear him a bit more.
This is why I love is hour long Instagram lives! The amount of content he talks about from himself and for the concepts of his art is so amazing to listen to.

@jthomas8263 enlighten me, what's that supposed to mean? Everyone has their journey, isn't it?
@@channelku007 he used to be a kpop idol in a former group called C-Clown. now he's going solo under the label that he has co-founded called DPR
Words are not enough to describe how much i respect him he is the sweetest human being that I've ever seen ❤
Just wanted to put this out there, Ian doesn't just help people with mental disorders, I've had type 1 diabetes since I was 9, there's no way to cure it and there's now way to prevent it. His highs and lows remind me of mine, how I feel, how I act. Whenever my blood sugar is low, I'm shaky, I feel like I going to pass out, I feel like I'm going to die and I'm emotional. When my blood sugar is high, I can't breathe, I'm angry, I feel weak and tired. I don't feel like myself, and Ian's music is something I can strongly relate to in that sense. I've been listening to him for a few years now, and he reminds me to keep going, no matter how hard or how terrifying and scary it is.
keep fighting, you got this🫶🏻
the way i relate his story to mine is my switches between bpd to aspd as well. i guess it also helped me to link that to artistic concepts with my writing
I've never seen it from that perspective before 🥺 It's good to know people with different struggles can find comfort in his music ❤️🩹
Take care of yourself.
i relate so much as a t1d, i have only really fully gotten into his songs but his songs help so much
I love how open Ian is with his mental health, he gives so many people hope and strength. He’s so selfless and has so much love to give. He’s also so phenomenally talented! ❤ love Ian
Christian is the only artist who makes me feel less lonely about my bpd. You have no idea how much he helped me to get through everything.
Same, with my Bipolar
I suspect I have bpd, and he makes me feel the same way. I feel understood and a lot less alone.
I have BOD too, was diagnosed last year and yes I agree. He has been able to somehow verbalize and visualize what I can't explain about what it feels like to live with this disorder.
he is doing everything for us "Dreamers" he is such really incredible and inspiring artist I ever know.. I know you're really struggling with your DID and still not giving up of everything.. Thank you for being such a strong fighter @DPR IAN
I agree but he has bipolar disorder not DID btw
@@ItsNessaTho he said that he has DID in his recent ig live
@@ItsNessaThohe said he has DID, and he said he blackout a lot. that's one of the symptom of DID
@@saima0695 oh I missed that. Thanks for the update
@@blenzd I know blackouts are a symptom of DID but I didn't know he confirmed to have it so I didn't want to assume
I will never stop being amazed at how genuine Christian is with everything he does 🥺♥️ I can’t wait for dear insanity
He is eloquent and has some deep insights into his own personal experience…I’m hooked to him now besides the Rose who’s a band that is up and coming…as well. Korea is definitely one to watch out for in the entertainment industry.
One of the most sincere, dedicated, well-spoken person I've ever known. Maybe that's why his music not only something we can hear but also something we can feel. Good job Ian! Can't wait for Dear Insanity to release! ❤
I appreciate that Ian has a place to share his thoughts and chitchat. I'd like him to be more open about how he comes up with ideas and how his mental state is doing in general. Though challenging, he kept going. Thank you for invite him.❤
Wait that last part is sooo interesting. Imagine listening to a recording of you singing and you're just hitting notes that you didn't even know you could do. I can only imagine how he reacted the first time 😮
Right 😧
i love how open he is, by the end of each interview he does the interviewers are always like "you're such an interesting person, you're so fascinating..." and honestly i completely agree, he's genuinely such an interesting dude and i love how honest and vulnerable he is about his mental disorders and just in general really. not to mention he's also super sweet and polite to everyone he talks to, he's truly a gem... i hope he starts to gain more recognition for his artistry, he deserves it. his music is great, his music videos are cinematic masterpieces and the creativity he and the whole DPR team put behind everything they do is outstanding. the fact that he's so involved in everything he does from production, to songwriting, to directing and editing music videos is crazy to think about. he's an artist in every sense of the word... much love to him 💗
DPR Ian (Christian Yu) is an extraordinary artist and human being. I don't even know if our generation was ready for his genius.
♥️✨🌻🦋🇧🇷
I think our generation was so ready....not the whole of it but I personally am so glad that I got to know about him. He inspires me like no one ever did❤
IAN Yu is an Ex-K-Pop Star.
I'm so glad I discovered this man. I've been going through similar struggles, and his music resonates a lot. The moment I heard his lyrics, I felt an instant connection. It was as if he had delved deep into my mind and pulled out my most intimate thoughts, fears, and experiences. His words captured the rollercoaster of emotions I constantly ride, struggling with bipolar disorder and the manic highs and lows that come with it.
Living with bipolar disorder is like being trapped on a never-ending carousel. The highs, or mania, can be exhilarating at first. It feels like I am invincible, capable of taking on the world. Ideas flow rapidly through my mind, and my creativity soars to new heights. I become the life of the party, the center of attention, and everything seems possible. It's during these moments that I understand the allure of mania. The world becomes vibrant, and I become a force to be reckoned with.
But as the saying goes, what goes up must come down. The lows, or depressive episodes, hit like a wrecking ball. Suddenly, the world loses its colors, and everything becomes bleak. Motivation evaporates, leaving me in a state of inertia. Simple tasks feel insurmountable, and even getting out of bed becomes a monumental feat. The weight of sadness and despair is suffocating, and it feels as though I'm drowning in a sea of emotions.
It's during these challenging times that I turn to music as a lifeline. This artist's songs become my refuge, a sanctuary where I can find solace and understanding. His lyrics paint a vivid picture of the emotional turmoil that accompanies bipolar disorder. He speaks of the highs with such intensity that it's impossible not to feel the electric energy coursing through my veins. And when he delves into the lows, his words capture the essence of the darkness that engulfs me, validating my experiences and reminding me that I am not alone.
In his music, I find someone who truly understands the struggle of walking this tightrope between mania and depression. He doesn't shy away from the raw, messy reality of living with bipolar disorder. Instead, he embraces it, using his art to illuminate the complexities and contradictions that define our lives. He sings of the chaos and the beauty, the pain and the resilience, all within the same breath.
Through his music, I have learned that my journey is not defined by my disorder, but by how I navigate through it. It's a constant battle, an uphill climb, but I am not alone. There is a community of individuals who share similar experiences and who find solace in the same melodies and lyrics. We may struggle, but we also find strength in our shared resilience.
So, to anyone out there who has ever felt the weight of bipolar disorder, I urge you to seek solace in the power of music. Find that artist whose words resonate with your soul, who understands the depths of your emotions. Allow their melodies to guide you through the storms and remind you that you are not alone. Embrace the highs and weather the lows, knowing that there is a symphony of understanding waiting to be discovered.
In the end, it's the understanding and connection we find in music that make the struggles more bearable. It's a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is hope. So, let the music be your companion on this tumultuous journey, and let it remind you that you are not defined by your disorder. You are a symphony of strength, resilience, and beauty.
Beautifully said. ❤
Ian is such a complete artist he deserves the world💋
Ian is the most geniune artist i've ever seen i love how approachable he feels just like a close friend . I wish him the best and i wanna thank him for giving us such amazing songs and videos
I genuinely admire dpr ian so much. Him being transparent and open about his mental health is what made my love grow for him day by day. Its not easy to open up about your struggles. And the way he shows it through his art is incredible. I have so much respect for him and I’m so proud of him. He’s an amazing human being. Truly an inspiration. Can’t wait for dear insanity 🙏🏻
Ian represents the creative future for music and visuals and I’m blown away by his bravery, talent and honesty.
Oh wow what a beautiful touching interview… his openness helps more than he’ll ever know 🙏🥰🙏❤️🇨🇦 MERCI 🙏🎼🎵
So proud of Ian for doing this interview 👏🏽 ❤ and also props to the interviewer for guiding this so nicely
I love DPR Ian 😩❤ sending much love to him and can't wait for his new upcoming music 😊
He's honestly the only artist I'd sit and watch a interview of for hours, eyes glued to the screen and soaking every word. He truly has so much to say and it's all so fascinating, his words feel genuine and raw and it's so rare to see that in artists, let alone someone so damn talanted. I'm grateful he decided to share his experiences tru music, tru his art but I didnt really know till not how hard that is on him, I just hope he's happy, hope he puts his health first cuz the community dpr created, the people who truly enjoy their art, are understanding enough to let him breathe without making him feel guilty about not putting out new stuff. Thank you, Christian, for bringing your ideas to life, truly believe you're the best artist in my lifetime. DPR we gang gang
This is like a therapy for us. I really like how he always share his story and his voice just like comfort to us. ❤
His explanation of 'Peanut Butter and Tears' made me tear up as I realized that the world is a playground and we do take it for granted until we "grow up" and have to be Adults. Message here is enjoy what's in front of you each moment! Love Ian so much. So talented and such a humble masterpiece!!!
The point to his music is very much inspired and related to his mental disorders so you have to go there dude! Dont make him feel bad for discussing something very personal and related to his music just because YOURE uncomfortable and cant relate! Also, YOU kind of instigated him into explaining himself and his music anyway! Way to make it weird! Thank you Christian! For sharing your most personal experiences with us and helping those of us that resignate with you❤
after watching this now i know what “i paid for your sanity” truly means. he brings mito and insanity to real life, first and foremost so he could know himself better, and bringing hope and being comfort for us especially who have this disorder too, despite how destructive and tragic it could be for him. he sacrifice his sanity for other people. for me i have bipolar 2 and weeks after i got diagnosed i came across his music. he found me when i unknowingly (?) needed a figure like him the most, like i dont search for him but when he came i was like “this is what i need the most right now”. he’s truly a savior, role model and inspiration ❤️ ian if you’re reading this i wanna say sorry… and thank you for being so open and honest, you make me honest and acknowledging myself too, and that’s the first steps to love myself. long and bumpy road ahead but i’m crawling, walking, running and flying with you beside me. you’ve been going through a lot, you’re struggling and have a lot in your plate, you’re such a fighter. i hope everything would be easier and softer on you just like how you make it easier for us ❤️ you’re loved by so many, you’re strong, you’re talented. we’re so blessed to have you, to live in the same era with you ❤️
Hey , is there any platform where we can talk more privately ? I really want to ask you about bipolar 2 like the symptoms or the feelings and everything, may i?
유바롬 사랑해 몸은 멀리 떨어져 있어도 항상 응원하는 팬들이 전세계 곳곳에 있다는 걸 잊으면 안돼요❤😘❤️
I will never get tired of how soft and sweet spoken he is
And he always gets a little lost in his words when he is trying to explain something, which is the cutest thing ever, but I get it, explaining the Mito lore is so difficult for someone who has no idea of it. He did an amazing job, tho ♥ Can't wait for the new album and more about Mr. Insanity
Ian's work never failed to mesmerize me. His songs and history have inspired and comforted me countless times. He's really the soundtrack of many of my memories and I'll be forever grateful to him.
he really has the sweetest and most precious soul, i admire and respect him a lot.
I love the way he has built his entourage and how he's enough at ease to have Mito out around them, he feels safe enough to document it and everything
Love how everyone says he’s fascinating
Christian is one of the most genuine artists ever, im so proud for how far he has come and all that he's done for his dreamers
as someone with bipolar disorder this means a lot. he literally helps me to keep going. "your disorder doesn't represent you" thanks a lot christian
Bro, he is good at talking and talented. I like the way he speaks it sounds pleasant to the ear and his delivery is easy for me to understand
I've never seen such a transparent and honest artist. Proud to be a part of the drp gang. DPR WE GANG GANG!!!
its been a while since ive gotten so passionate about an artist. i admire this man because i see myself in him, and that might sound so parasocial lol. and because of him he educated me more about being bipolar. i became more of a fan when i went to the dpr tour (the one in orlando ian if ur reading this we love you and want u to come back lol) and seeing how genuine and sweet he was on a spiritual level, it makes me emotional only cause i havent shared a bond like this with an artist in so long. even when it is hard to live sometimes as dramatic as it sounds. this man is a reminder that the world isnt so ugly. im pushing myself to keep going through with my life, and he is part of my drive. ian, you saved me and so many other people. you shared that being vulnerable is beautiful. thank you, love u.
I want to hug him and protect him! I wish he finds his wellness because he is such a genius artist.
The way he talks and explain things is so relaxing, I really need a podcast of him❤
you can really see his passion in his work and how excited he is to educate people. i love that he speaks out on things that can be easily misunderstood.i also love how he has so much control over his content and puts a deeper meaning in everything which i can respect. His heart definitely belongs in the world of creativity.
its really refreshing to hear a celebrity be so open like this. i have did and it can be really scary to not have control, im constantly afraid that im being judged, or that "i" will say something and come out not knowing what happened. thank you Ian for being so open about these things that can be so stigmatized by the public.
he’s the best. i can tell he has a very pure soul and deserves good things. praying he’s able to receive miracles in the near future 🩶 god’s got you christian !!!!
One of the most unique artists I have ever seen and followed...his music has helped me through all the tough times when I felt like giving up everything. His music will inspire a lot of people, that's for sure. Love you Ian
Ian have my full respect, such a great artist and human being. I hope he can found his peace and love 💖.
I've just gotten into Ian's music so I started watching a bunch of his interviews, I admire how he isn't afraid to be vulnerable and open. He seems like a very deep thinker yet has such a warm and fun personality. Also noticed how he tends to ask interviewers questions too which I don't see a lot of artists do haha very cute!!
edit: I ended up crying because of his words. No words can suffice how comforted and inspired I feel after watching. This really is his calling
Looking at him opening about all of this made me cry, he really represents a lot for a lot of people, he’s one of the greatest and sweetest artists I’ve ever seen, he is just amazing, all the art he makes it’s just extraordinary. Thank you Ian, we love you💓
He's very introspective with his craft and thanks Jojo for asking him about it and discussing it w/ him. I pray that in between these projects, Ian has moments of peace and rest
Ian's a brilliant artist but more so a very intelligent and charming person. I'm so glad to have listened to this interview. I really appreciated him sharing an indebt description of his health challenge. It helped me to understand it so clearly now. I could also relate to the "peanut butter and tears" nostalgia. Brilliant!
i wish this was longer id just sit and listen forever if i could hahah. he’s really making a difference and i’m so glad he’s aware of that 🖤
He's so adorable and interesting person, I'm proud to call myself "dreamer"! Can't wait to hear this song and watch mv ♡
It’s always a pleasure to watch/listen to DPR Ian speak and be interviewed. He seems so genuine and sincere. His insights are always thought provoking. It amazes me how well he is able to articulate and explain such personal and sometimes abstract ideas and experiences and in a way that people can understand and relate to. I love that the DPR team are here for the art and fans.
That weird moment when you know DPR Ian from Joanday's channel...DPR Ian decided to get nails done was the best decision for my ears❤
I love him, I love his voice, it’s so calming. I really appreciate how open and honest he was the whole time, it’s so curious to me as I always just know him via his songs which I love so much. Seeing more of who he is apart from just his Instagram posts and what I see on social media is like a privilege. I love his artistry and hope lots of success for him and DPR so they can touch more hearts with their expression.
He is the sweetest person🤍
❤Dpr Ian is a very honest human 😢
I totally identify with Chist, because it is true in the end perfection is accepting that we are not perfect.
Ian is literally the best person to exist I wish him nothing but happiness and health always
still waiting for his grammy nomination!!
Ian is such a motivation and truly a beautiful person. As someone with bipolar him speaking his thoughts and feelings has literally brought tears to my eyes and has saved me from the edge multiple times. Ian you are beautiful
As someone else with bipolar disorder, I second what you’ve said!
I love this man so much his music heals me and makes me very proud! 😭🤧🖤
"You are a fascinating dude." Could not have put it better myself. I'd have sat through an entire hour of listening to him talk about, well anything lol.
I've mental health issues I've suffered with for over 20 years and they're only getting worse as I'm aging. Hearing him speak about his own is going to help others know they're not alone, which is how many feel when you're stuck in your mind like this.
(Edit: I forgot to mention that I'm really enjoying his music! I knew of 'So Beautiful' for a while and love it, but I've also got into his newer stuff and I think I'm actually addicted to 'Peanut Butter & Tears'!)
How sweet he is😢i always wanted more ppl to know what's behind his music, video, arts and etc. By knowing his song, I get more chance to explore my true self and the world, to the point that i feel like that's what magical from him.❤
Ian is such a great human, hearing him is so comfortable... I love all his interviews and how he's so open and deep without embarrassment. Love from Peru 💗 I really hope he come again!
Keep fighting ian!!!
Dreamers always support you!!!
Thankyou for sharing n invite him to this interview 🥰❤️
listening to Ian talk about his mental health, specially bring bipolar, is so comforting and makes me feel that I am not alone in it. his songs have been a safe space to me, made me feel understood and less lonely. I will forever be grateful for him ❤
Christian is so genuine when he talks to others, every one of his words really amazes me, it makes me feel very grateful for all the work he has done just for us DREAMERS, Ian really saves many people with his Art! I personally have Bipolar disorder and he is a great motivation for me... he is a life saver ❤ I feel grateful that he talks so openly about the disease regardless of people's prejudices. I will always support you IAN!!!☆
He's such a brave and talented artist that i admire for being open about his diagnosis and spreading awareness. I wish for him only good things cuz he deserves them all, he's truly amazing and so is his music so lets support dear insanity ❤
Thank you for having Ian, it's soothing and fascinating to hear him talk.
He's the best and deverses the best in life, he's a true inspiration.
We love you Ian 💖
I love listening to everything that christian has to say. The insight he has to give is so interesting. Thank you for sharing so much about yourself dpr ian
Thank you for giving us the chance of listening Christian. He is sharing is precious as much as his art. It’s a blessing being a dreamer
He’s such an interesting person I was genuinely captivated in what he was saying. For him to expose his vulnerabilities takes a lot & because of that I feel like I owe it to him by saying thanks for bringing us along.
i can honestly hear him talk for hours. i get so excited to see when an interview of him is put out because I just know im going to have a good time watching it. hes such a genuine person not just through his music but everywhere else. i hope he knows talking about his struggles helps me a lot more than he might think. he deserves all the positivity in the world, dreamers will always be by his side. dpr alone needs sm more recognition for all the hard work they put in their career.❤
What an amazing interview. Thank you to the interviewer for letting Ian speak and for asking insightful questions.
He’s such an extraordinary special person who inspires a lot of people in every aspect of life ..
There’s always something really comforting listening to his interviews really wish him all the best from the deepest part of my heart
Everytime he bears his mind to us I feel a cold thrill; I love seeing into his mind but at the same time I worry that one day it will be too much. Even so, I appreciate him and his art so much, and I only hope is fans can keep making it worthwhile for him
Would love to hear a podcast every week from Ian about his thoughts and emotions ideas etc. His talking voice is so soothing.
loved this!!
DPR IAN is the most fascinating artist I have ever seen.
