107,326 people came to the sangam to watch her sing simply because she is Korea's national singer, the most popular solo artist of the 21st century and also the number 1 female solo artist in Korea. She is IU, simple as that
I was lucky to attend IU's concert in America and yes, it was one of the best concert and loved all the songs she sang. I normally don't like the singers talking so much during the concert but IU is exception since her talking voice is so soothing and she is so funny and lovable, I can just listen to her talking and singing all day! IU said she wrote this song just because she wanted to remember how much she loved this summer and won't release this song but we all hope she will someday!
I have been to the Berlin concert and watching live concert videos gives you an idea how perfect her live shows are. But actually being there is absolutely jaw dropping. She is otherworldly good.
IU actually got famous in her debut days for covering many songs while playing the acoustic guitar - she made acoustic interpretations of SNSD's Gee, SuJu's Sorry etc leaving veterans like You Hee Yeol awestruck. Guitars and/or Keyboard are necessary for all singer songwriters like her.
IU was known for her guitar early on in her career. She used to play it a lot more when she played smaller stages. She truly is a singer songwriter. I also was at her concert in Singapore earlier this year and the way I was just crying and smiling the entire time. Goosebumps all throughout. Amazing voice. Best show of the year for sure.
What's more special about this is that she wrote this song to say goodbye to her world tour and it's to be only performed in this last show no release nothing. Also i love your reactions guys id love to see more IU here because she is THE ARTIST. Love ♥
IU pays tribute to women in the industry from different generations in her performance of her song s.h.h. A song made by women for women. In it she talks about how women relate to each other, the high price of being a woman, what love is like between women and the relationship between mother and daughter. It is also a recognition of how difficult the K-pop industry is for women. Surprisingly, IU is the only soloist and female artist to perform at studios in Korea. Because not even the biggest female groups of all generations in K-pop were allowed to perform at them, they are only offered to men and male groups. The only soloist to have 100 concerts. The Korean industry looks down on women, limits them to performing in small venues, does not allow them to grow and that is why they retire before consolidating their careers. iU is paying tribute to the older female artists who inspired her, to the younger ones who are now paying tribute to her... this goes beyond statistics and status, but is a celebration of artistic legacy and the emotional bond that unites different generations of artists. Her encore concert at Sangam Stadium gave her the record for the largest audience for a concert in South Korea, with 107 thousand seats sold in 2 nights. IU was a young artist; with her guitar and her voice, she told sincere and real stories that conquered the hearts of the South Korean people. The little girl who only sought an audience to listen to her love poems, became the greatest and most respected living legend of all time in the artistic industry of her country.
Her live clips and studio albums are so good but listening to her live is a different experience, she does magic. Her vocals, band, orchestra, dancers, fireworks, drone show, tweety balloon, vcr, seat cushions and gifts to every single attendee sets the standard so high I don't think anyone else could do that.
It sounded like Lilacs rock version from the point of view from the meaning of lyrics.. The only artist who is able to write a goodbye to her thirties song sounds like a a lovely love song. IU is a true artist
Hi and thank you. IU doesn't spare expenses that's for sure I could give you a list of expensive things in her concerts, drones, fireworks a giant beautiful hot air balloon form where she sang strawberry moon etc. She has played both acoustic and electric guitars, more acoustic for sure. I'm sure you know she can play more instruments but singing is of course the blessing we received from her. 107k seats were sold for 2 dates 54k per day, but add VIPs in those booths between levels and you'll get 60k easily per day, this is after all the world cup stadium in Seoul. UAENAs bought most of them (I mean exclusive sale for UAENA members) leaving just a few thousand for the open ticketing everything went faster than eating breakfast.
I got into Rosemont concert, was already 40000 in the queue and she sold out within the hour. And her concert was amazing, seriously professional, ingenious yet very authentic and warm. But her concerts in S.Korea, is still dazzling and fantastic, I would rather go to her S Korean concert, but getting tickets to those are even more impossible.
Her Seoul concerts especially the stadium ones are really grand, I went on both days and it's so worth it. The most expensive cost at around 150 dollars only and it has everything lol. I hope someday she can bring this kind of shows worldwide. Though I think any IU concert is so worth it, I would still watch it even it's just her and the band.
IU had play guitar all the time. In the past, she played guitar in some small covers and on some cover stages. Jieun also played the guitar when she composed his own songs. Recently, he also played guitar in concerts the song“like a star”. now this bye summer is her new self-composed song⭐️😭💫🥺💜she is a passion，talented musicians💜👍🙆🏻♀️
That is right comment, many of IU songs are far more impactive in her live concert singing than studio versions. I think "The Winning" album was more specifically for the world tour than studio listening. Songs like the Shopper are high impact in the concert, than the MVs which itself was striking. Many artists are famous, trendy etc., but very few achieve the next level of "reputation", they become icons. And that is only by consistently high quality output over a long time, unfazed by trends and times. And yes IU is that in S.Korea, or even anywhere in the world. She is a throw back to an earlier age of singing, where art/artistry was more prominent that packaging/promoting. "Listening" music mattered more than "Viewing" performance.
I agree! Holssi is a perfect entrance song, while Shopper gives that very lively magical vibe in the middle of the show and Love Wins All is a perfect ending giving goosebumps as it has less instruments and we can hear her angelic voice.
In fact, when she first became a singer at the age of 15(in 2008), she was a ballad singer who played and sang on her guitar. Just like other famous S.Korean ballad singer in early years(1960~1990).
그녀는 기타를 능숙하게 칩니다 그리고 정확한 분석입니다 그녀는 라이브 가수고, 두번쨰는 스튜디오 가수라는 말이 한국에서도 모두가 공감하는 말입니다 그녀는 노력으로 지금까지 왔다고 느낄수 있습니다 특히 last fantagy 앨범을 들어보면 지금과는 다른 음색을 가지고 있습니다. 아마 창법을 바꾼듯 합니다 훨씬더 매력적으로 다가옵니다 그렇지만 너랑나등은 과거와 비슷합니다 그말은 고칠건 고치고 이어갈건 이어간다는 뜻입니다 그녀는 한국 GOAT에 가깝습니다 특히 여자 솔로에서는 독보적입니다 우리 한국사람은 그녀의 중학교 시절부터 우리에게 알려져있었습니다. 여동생같은 이미지에서 지금은 여왕의 이미지를 갖고 있습니다 bye summer에 대해 이야기한다면 그녀는 이번 투어가 여름의 시작부터 끝날즈음 전세계를 돈다음 여름이 끝난다고 느꼇습니다 투어 내내 여름날씨로 해외를 돌았기 때문에 한국에서의 여름보다도 더 긴 여름이라고 느껴졌습니다.
Thanks for reaction on IU. She is a true artist who genuinely love music and her fans. This song was performed only for concert and she has no plan to release it.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for an IU and Kim Taehyung song collab. I really hope they'll have one soon. For me, she's a true artist. She sings, plays instruments, dances, composes, acts, has her own show "IU's Palette". I love her song collabs with SUGA.
She has been a fan of MYMP for a long time. Four years ago, she mentioned that she had been listening to MYMP songs for 10 years (now 14 years) or since her teen years. The "Say You Love Me" by MYMP version (Patti austin original), which she sang here ua-cam.com/video/LRBaGimjp-I/v-deo.html in South Korea, (one of the things) sparked her career. Full length cover by IU of "Say You Love Me" ua-cam.com/video/HzWD0EVys70/v-deo.html Efra... by the way, she's been playing the guitar for a long time.
she is the only kpop artist with no haters.. First time i saw her was in a show along with Jiyeon (my all time favorite group T-ARA). Now she is the only 2nd generation artist that is still heavily active. That's why it is called "slow and steady wins the race". She is more like Arijit Singh, simply talented "but she can dance too".. But i still miss T-ARA, Queens of Hits..
If you want to know artist use more music instrument, then I should recommend you AKMU live concert.. Underated group I've ever seen in international kpop fans
i hate to be that person 🥲 but i am dying to see you guys react to more AKMU 🥹 they’ve posted a bunch of live performances from their 10th anniversary concert and this one is one of my absolute favs!
I saw her in the US, and am a very serious fan, but I would say in a hesitating way that I was disappointed in the absence of her back-up singers and orchestral accompaniment.

한국인이라면 걍 모를수가 없는 거의 손에 꼽을 연예인 아닌가,,진심 대단해 걍 존나 멋짐..살아있는 레전드 한국인이라서 젤 기쁜 것 중 하나야ㅠㅜ 사랑함

Her talk is ASMR

이게 진짜 K-POP이지...
요즘 K-POP 보면 해외 성적 노리고 만들다보니 가사 절반이 영어인데, 간단한 영어 제외하고 모조리 다 한국어 가사...

It's from her encore concert At Seoul Sangam Stadium. 102k people for two days.
108K
In Korea, the book entitled "time to read IU" became a best seller.
She played the guitar in her London concert during her cover song "Like A Star".
It sounded like Lilacs rock version from the point of view from the meaning of lyrics.. The only artist who is able to write a goodbye to her thirties song sounds like a a lovely love song. IU is a true artist
I agree, IU gives a lot of effort on her performances especially her concerts! She has many hit songs too 🤩
She is a true legend.

That little drizzle at first was so beautiful like a scene from a movie it was perfect ❤ and the song spectacular!!
G Dragon went to the show. I agree with you, IU's priority is 100% the music.
Best CONCERT! That I had ever been. Her live performances and concert production are fire. 🔥
I got into Rosemont concert, was already 40000 in the queue and she sold out within the hour. And her concert was amazing, seriously professional, ingenious yet very authentic and warm.

Many Kpop idol learn guitar because of IU❤❤❤❤❤❤
She's the best. I can't live without IU and her music in my life. She's a blessing to us ❤
I was there and it was a blessing to my soul and body 🫠🫠✨
It was the best concert I have EVER attended 🥹😍
Wow! Congrats! So happy for you 💜
I was lucky to attend these 2 particular concerts and I would say she is the best singer and star in Korea. ❤❤❤

Please react to day6
plz you should react to summoning eru, si louie & 80 by juan paasa band
Please react to Mission Souls cover Separate ways to
I saw her in the US, and am a very serious fan, but I would say in a hesitating way that I was disappointed in the absence of her back-up singers and orchestral accompaniment. We're a little spoiled by the live clips from Korea where no expense is spared and the audience participation and fan chants are so disciplined and inspiring.
Pls react to Nmixx tiny desk Korea
Can you check and react Julie Anne san jose cover song Die with a smile, thanks in advance
