One of the greatest and best-selling artists of the 21st century with nearly 100 million records sold in South Korea alone, IU is a diamond amongst the toughness of the music industry. Furthermore, when taking into consideration the amount of patriarchalism present in the music industry, IU has managed to not only write, produce, and release her own music, but has done so without overblown controversies and sexualization, just her and her talent. That is why IU is such an inspiration to so many and is considered a living legend at such a young age. She herself said it was never about money or records, it was all about the music and if you love what you do, then success will find you.
maybe not outright sexualization, but a lot of people definetely fetichized her cause of her age and "innocence". that's why she felt so controlled to the point where she released 23 and made a bunch of jabs to these types of things she was expected and idealized to be, an innocent child-like almost subservient little girl.
Thang Lian You lot just like to make heroes to worship so you profess some fictional patriarchy this, patriarchy that. Nobody stopped her from doing anything but like Rabid Talyor Swift fans, every time a woman singer changes her style you forge some *“she broke free of oppressive patriarchy! The music industry hates her for doing this!”* narrative. You don’t realize you sound some idiot who believes those dumb ads that look like *“Doctors hate this guy! They don’t want you to know this trick, we’re heroes for bringing you this!”* Of course a newbie singer isn’t allowed or feels confident enough to go for bolder themes until one has more presence and clout in the industry, it’s simple sound marketing choices. But you make it like there’s some kind of big bad empire to fight in every corner. Ridiculous idiots. And you are a greater fool if you think anyone who has to work with 100s of professionals to bring you quality music videos is allowed to do whatever they want. Not being able to do whatever you want is just the reality of living and collaborating with other people. On top of that, you are essentially complaining that the handful who do get stuck doing stuff they are most recognized for (in IU’s case, her cute image). Try telling that to the 1000s of artists who failed to achieve success at all and wasted years of their youth on failed endeavors! Even Rage Against the Machine constantly singing about fighting oppression is a corporate sock puppet who cashes in on rebellious teens’ need for counterculture. It’s of course her choice if she wants to be like Lee Sun hee who sings powerful pop songs in Korea even to this day, from her debut in the 80s. But you so called fans throwing her producers under the bus as some evil oppressor is putting words in her mouth and making her look like some ungrateful asshole.
Thang Lian In contrast, boys can’t cash in on the cute market. *And they have to end their careers due to Korean military service on top of that.* Yet you folks never cry a tear for them, just the women, even going as far as to make false narratives. Why? If boys tried cute like IU it’s not going to be popular and lucrative enough to buy those no matter how much a boy artist wants to. Artists and choreographers and producers won’t want to collaborate with a sinking ship.
@@CrabTastingMan 1) What are you talking about? There are boy groups with cute concepts. And not just one or two, either. Plus many other boy groups have *at least* one cute, innocent era. 2) Female idols have much shorter careers than male idols do. As they grow older, interest wanes, and they are soon replaced. Very few female idols and/or soloists continue in their careers after passing their 20s. You may notice that female idols on average tend to be younger than males on debut. This is done so that they can stay popular for longer, and so their companies can get more profit off of them. Many who are able to continue on regardless of that hurdle go into a sexier concept. Others who cannot make it in music continue on as actresses or show hosts. Meanwhile, male groups and soloists do not have this problem. They can continue to promote even into their 40s. 3) Military service? Just 2 years. If male idols can get over that hurdle, they're set. Females on the other hand have a much more uncertain future. See my second point for details. 4) Korean men tend to prefer the cute, childish concepts. It's actually females who prefer the sexy, girl-crush concepts (talking about Korea here). This is evident when you look at the demographics of various groups; groups who are young and have that sweet image tend to have a much larger male fanbase, while older ones or those with a more badass, sexy image tend to have a larger female fanbase. So when we consider IU, what she has accomplished is actually huge. From her debut at 15 years old, she had the image of "Korea's little sister." A cute, innocent, girlish vibe. Then she came out with this song, which had a more sexy, mature vibe to it. Furthermore, it directly referenced this whole issue about her past image and her future one, and her conflict about which she wanted. If you look at the MV, as they said, you can get this sort of "sexualizing a young girl vibe" from it, which would have served as a sort of slap in the face to her established fanbase. That kind of drastic image change is hard on any artist, whether male, female, Korean or not. She received both praise and hate for this song. But she survived the controversy and went on to make her own music, to do what she liked and not what other people demanded of her. And she stayed successful regardless. And that is a HUGE accomplishment in the male-dominated industry that is K-pop.
To be honest. 23 is such an underrated bop. Korea wasn't ready to see IU being that bold that's why it was slept on in SK. Few years later they're calling it a masterpiece. That's how you make a timeless music. IU is so unapologetic that era that's what I love about it. Hope she makes a 23 sequel soon.
23 sequel was Pallete. In 23 she talks between choosing things, how she like this but also want that, being indecisive and stuff. In Pallete, talks about now that she's 25, she is more sure about what she wants, likes and dislikes. the mv also has a lot of 23 reference. check it out!
I think that doing Palette as a follow up to 23 would be interesting - especially looking at the lyrics of each. Perhaps it would shed some light on what Rachel & Gwen were discussing about intentionally sexualizing innocence.
Genuine question; but why does it shed light on that? I listened to the whole album but didnt get that. But if there are mentions in there I'll definitely go back and give it another listen!
In 23, she's really uncertain about who she is, she's still searching for her identity. In palate, she seems to found her identity, found what she likes, what she doesn't like., etc. I really love her songs
Her company really hit jackpot signing IU because that girl was able to create a reputation that supersedes even those mega-groups. If there is ever a solo artists that can go head to head with BTS, Blackpink, or Twice in the charts, it would be IU and she'd do it with ease. It's even more amazing that she never came from a defunct group. Most solo artists had a backing from their group's fanbase but IU rose to the top all by herself. She has made an image out of pure talent that's why SoKor respects her and her craft. It's even harder to imagine that she used to have a time where the whole nation almost condemned her and she came out unscathed and bigger than ever.
Hi, Yunyi!!!! 😊 Glad to see you're back to reacting again~ ❤️ Really missed you and seeing you with Kevin 😊 Aaaand glad you guys are finally reacting to my fave song of IU- You and I 😊
God, I love IU so much I can't even explain. Dear Name gets me through the toughest times. You really should get them to react to songs off Palette. That album really is a masterpiece!
ok so i googled this and found people saying that she does not. can i have some proof just curious. never watched dream high but people are saying only her character has perfect pitch.
@@drag_611 I searched about it too, but I think she doesn't have perfect pitch but maybe her "relative pitch" (is that what it's called AHAHAH the thingy they used in dream high) is really good? I THINK perfect pitch is like ability to know the exact pitch of a sound immediately without any comparison, whereas relative pitch is sth like if you hear a sound and someone tells you it's A Major or sth, you can deduce other pitch through comparison? Anyways I think if IU has perfect pitch she would declare it XDD
Haha probably why they made her character the shy singer with perfect pitch in the Dream High tv series 😅 she’s pretty damn talented. I’m sure she doesn’t have perfect pitch but hey, if I could name an artist close to perfect pitch many would probably think of her. I loveeeed that show
I'm always amazed by the breadth of IU's cultural references, including world-wide Pop culture. You guys got the Dr. Who Tardis design of her time machine and the Polar Express, but nobody got the fact that her black short dress and hair style in that scene was straight Wednesday Addams.
I was subscribed to another kpop react channel in the past while they were in college and what happened afterwards was......they just stopped making videos. Couldn't do it anymore because after college they went their own way. I don't know what Umu is going to do but we should just enjoy this while it lasts :))
Please react to Lee-hi plz!! All of her songs are great espicially My star , Rose and It's over. Lee hi is one of the singers who debut by a program K-POP STAR like AKMU. She is really great artist plz plz plz 😢
Would you consider doing a reaction vid for some of IU's live performances? She gave an amazing live performance this past Saturday at the Melon Music Awards 2017 where she won Album of the Year and Best Song Writer. Love your reaction videos and really curious how you would compare her studio vs live singing.
hey I just wanna say thank you for uploading one of the best reaction among all of the reactions on CZcams. honestly you're one of the most reaction channel I've always counting on. I love your reactions (especially reaction to akmu lmao that's lit)! I have this request for you to react to sohyang. she's one of the best singer in SK and ugh I've been stuck to her lately after watching her performances in king of masked singer. her voice really is soothing. this is 01:46 am at my time zone and yes I'm listening to her and watching to your reaction. keep up the good work! reacttothek you're amazing! wOoO!
13:31 The reason IU came-out childish and kind of sexualized it, was because this whole song is basically talking about herself as 23 year old If you read the lyrics, she says that she wants to stay as a child but then she wants to become a real adult and seem more mature She showed this by herself looking childish while also looking sexy, and she's saying that she's confused and doesn't know what to become So she's basically saying that age 23 is a confusing period
They hear a lot things, they know theory like every professional. I only hope they still feel joy listening to music and hear emotions in songs not only singing technic.
one of the main reasons she's so popular is because she is not just a pop 'cutesy' style music and artist, he maturity and different style whilst still keeping an innocent, elegant but fun image is why she's so popular, that and her vocals are incredible. She's known as 'Korea's little sister' haha
Did they watch until the end of the bloopers? I loved that part of the MV and was looking forward to their reactions to the instrumental but, oh well. Haha. 'Love you, guys!
Those dance scenes with the gears of clocks turning around, made me remember of the movie Hugo. If they had subtitles for 23 song, it would have been great, as it is very meaningful and realistic song even though it looks cute
아니 이사람들아 제목에 떡하니 "클래식 전공자" 라고 적혀있잖아요..;; 어떤 의도로 만든거겠어요.. 평범한 반응을 보고싶은거라면 그냥 일반 외국인들 반응 모음을 찾아서 봐요. 분석 관련 댓글을 보고싶어서 한국 댓글 찾아보는데 대부분이 영상 안 본다고 욕하고있네 참.. 영상 제목이나 먼저 제대로 보고 들어오셔요..;;
iU ‘Palette’ then ‘BbiBbi’ ? Anyone?
yaaaaaas
I dont think so, i love her but both are very simple
@@isaaccastro4846 what about jam jam or the red shoes?
Count me in bishh !!
Anything from chatsire album honestly need to be react

If boys tried cute like IU it’s not going to be popular and lucrative enough to buy those no matter how much a boy artist wants to. Artists and choreographers and producers won’t want to collaborate with a sinking ship.

2011 - You and I
2019 - Above the time (Yes its the sequel after 8 years)
Please do a mv reaction of Above the Time and Blueming 💙💜💙
They just did
Yes!!!!!!!!!!
IU ♡♡♡♡♡
Although I like You and I, I absolutely love Above the Time
Normal people: Oh that sounds kinda creepy.
Musicians: *That's a lot of modulations that happened in a very short amount of time.*
Totally relatable.
omfg yunyi is here! BLESS!!!
I love how yunyi’s shirt always makes everyone freak out in the comments 😂😂👌

equilibrium on 23 she can't decide on being adult or teen 🤷🏻♂️ but on palette she finally decided ez as dat
In 23, she's really uncertain about who she is, she's still searching for her identity. In palate, she seems to found her identity, found what she likes, what she doesn't like., etc. I really love her songs
OMG FINALLY YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IVE WAITED FOR THIS REACTION I LOVE IU SO MUCH
No joke. I just want them to react to her whole discography! :D
Me as well! Her songs are so diverse and unique!
yesss samee...

The No.1 Female Solo Singer & Idol & Songwriter ＝ IU ~~~!!!!!!!!!!
Shu Yi yes agreeeee!
Shu Yi agree ♡♡♡♡♡
Shu Yi soooo true😘😘😘
+Emre Gunes just think so
+Emre Gunes Taeyeon is still currently a part of SNSD so isn't counted as a full solo singer
Please react IU through the night
Jae Kim yes and palette
I searched the title you typed above & there's no song named "thruong the nigth"
Jae Kim YES
And i can't love you anymore with Oh Hyuk
and dear name and ending scene
God, I love IU so much I can't even explain. Dear Name gets me through the toughest times. You really should get them to react to songs off Palette. That album really is a masterpiece!
Now ill just seat here and wait until you'll react to IU 'above the time' i'm so exited...
Ersila Kriem It finally happened!
I missed Yunyi and I missed IU reactions this video made me happy
cant wait till yall get to recent IU era cos she really has become an artist of her own and u can see it clearly
potbotra yesss yess please.. i need them react to flower bookmark 1 and 2
potbotra Queen IU is so versatile and musically genius😘😘😘😘
I've been waiting for this reaction ever since good day. thank you so muchhhhhh
I'm like 95% sure IU has perfect pitch. So her being out of tune would be a very rare occasion.
ok so i googled this and found people saying that she does not. can i have some proof just curious. never watched dream high but people are saying only her character has perfect pitch.

She doesn't have perfect pitch. Watch her lives. But she's still pretty darn good.
Haha probably why they made her character the shy singer with perfect pitch in the Dream High tv series 😅 she’s pretty damn talented. I’m sure she doesn’t have perfect pitch but hey, if I could name an artist close to perfect pitch many would probably think of her. I loveeeed that show
The lyrics of 23 are so witty, I think it's important to read them, all the lyrics of her selfwritten songs are smart.
IU n HyukOh's can't love you anymore is a must watch
Mulan Kwon indeed that song is art itself, daily playlist 😌👌
I can't wait until you guys do IU's newer songs! It's definitely way more different.
I'm always amazed by the breadth of IU's cultural references, including world-wide Pop culture. You guys got the Dr. Who Tardis design of her time machine and the Polar Express, but nobody got the fact that her black short dress and hair style in that scene was straight Wednesday Addams.
Lol. And this is not even her final form! Her two latest albums are gold. Waiting for you to react in the near future!
I love you for this. IU is very talented and unique so it's fun to see musicians review her.
finally!! I've been waiting for this. thank you!
I have been waiting for this!!!! Thank you!!!
헐미친ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ좋은날이랑 분홍신 해주신거보고 약간은 기대했지만 이렇게 올라온거보니 진짜 소름ㅠㅠㅠㅠthank you!!!❤️❤️😄😄👍👍
IU IS QUEEN. I loved hearing their opinions. :') Maybe they could react to Palette, Through The Night or the new album in the future. 💓
Melina Ortega indeed she's a queen!!!
Secret Garden on the FBM2 album

You could literally do an ENTIRE channel on classical musicians reacting to IU's songs.
Thank you and this is a great channel by the way 🙂
thx u!! I've been waiting for IU things. Love u guys
i dont know why i just started thinking about this but whats gonna happen when umu graduates

If Umu stops making videos I will go into withdrawal, from which I probably will not emerge until 10 years have passed.
What will happen is we will all cry ;-;
FINALLY! We've been waiting for this ❤️
I’m legit dying rn(not really it just feels like it) but y’all make me happy-
Thank you so much for reacted to IU's MV. I feel I can't be patient for the next reacting video about IU's MV. Thanks^^
I haven’t heard “U&I” in a long time. I played this song so much when it came out. ❤️
Please react to Lee-hi plz!! All of her songs are great espicially My star , Rose and It's over. Lee hi is one of the singers who debut by a program K-POP STAR like AKMU. She is really great artist plz plz plz 😢

Marcos Trivelato Oh Thanks😃!!!
Yes! I want them to react to Breathe (w/ lyrics) and rose 😭😭

She is awesome but she didn't win kpop star, Jimin did
Love your Reaction Vids. So pure reactions and ive been waiting this reaction vid.
I was waiting for this!
And thank you for including Yunyi in this T_T
oh my god, it's so good to hear their thoughts about some of IU's self written/composed music
존버는 성공한다.....드디어 한국어 자막이...!

yunyi's "gay? fine by me" is the BEST😍😍😂😂
OMFG FINALLY!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR MONTHS 🙌🙌
Am I the only one missing IU's early songs? No one made songs like that with heavy orchestration and no one does anymore in mainstream.
Now there is continuation of You and I i.e. "Above the time", it's so good
*Ok I literally had a dominos advertisement of a kid with two fidget spinners before this video. That just ruined my hype of watching jfc*
Welcome to 2017
Jimin's tiny chili pepper omg that sounds like a mess
Jimin's tiny chili pepper *why are all of your comments in bold letters*
well at least you helping them unlike me who uses adblock
Maria Fernanda Uzcategui *because extra and ordinary*
Thank you for doing 23! It's my favorite IU song.
IU MY QUEEN ♡ I LOVE HER SO MUCH SHES THE ONE THAT GOT ME INTO KPOP!
me also :))))
FUN FACT: 23 is the first album/song iu personally and fully produced which is why the style is different from her old songs.
*GAY? FINE BY ME INTENSIFIES*
IU is definitely an original artist. I respect her a lot.
There's 2 things I love in this video; 1st you made an IU reaction again & 2nd Yunyi's backkk!!!
Part 1 : You and I (2011)
Part 2 : Above The Time (2019)
I hope you have them react to Ending Scene by her!
Drewski217 damn I love that song and the MV is amazing
YES! I LOVE IU REACTIONS!! ❤

Ah il y a qu'à l'étranger qu'un tee-shirt du tour de france ça fait classe 😂👌 Another nice video guys 💕 Thank you
YAS IVE BEEN WAITING
13:32 이게 보이는 구나 그것도 딱 한 사람만 이 문제에 대해 제기한 것도 신기함
13:31
The reason IU came-out childish and kind of sexualized it, was because this whole song is basically talking about herself as 23 year old
If you read the lyrics, she says that she wants to stay as a child but then she wants to become a real adult and seem more mature
She showed this by herself looking childish while also looking sexy, and she's saying that she's confused and doesn't know what to become
So she's basically saying that age 23 is a confusing period
If you can fit Palette into the react schedule that’d be the best. Super excited for Gain’s Carnival next week tho!
The classical musicians in this video are all so adorable ❤
They hear a lot things, they know theory like every professional. I only hope they still feel joy listening to music and hear emotions in songs not only singing technic.
I really want them to know the lyrics of 23 !!!! ❤
"GAY? FINE BY ME•"
I need that shirt
but do you need it "no homo"?
She didn't only write the lyrics for Twenty-three, she co-composed it as well
QUEEN also yall should do gd's crooked/ooak vs untitled 2014
React to Bolbbalgan4 please
李朗軒 YES
Omg yeeeees
You don't even knoooooooooooowwwwww
Yeah I've been waiting for Bolbbalgan like for years.
YAS YAS YAS YAS YAS YAS YAS
IU's 'JAM JAM' is amazing, you should check it out too!
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE LIKE FOREVER
Woaaaa i've been waiting for this in years ! 😂
I wish they had subs on for 23. I LOVE the lyrics so much.
Wait this wasn't even a VS video...
one of the main reasons she's so popular is because she is not just a pop 'cutesy' style music and artist, he maturity and different style whilst still keeping an innocent, elegant but fun image is why she's so popular, that and her vocals are incredible. She's known as 'Korea's little sister' haha
Ahh IU. her voice always made goose bumps. like her pretty smile. Thx ReacttotheK :)
wait for another song of her. (Palette and last night story)
Did they watch until the end of the bloopers? I loved that part of the MV and was looking forward to their reactions to the instrumental but, oh well. Haha. 'Love you, guys!
*0* finally!!

kephalai same

IU's song 23 definitely needs to be listened with subs to really appreciate the message she was trying to tell
She's queen😆 Love IU❤
She's so pretty and talented😍
UMU THANKS FOR UPLOADING! PLEASE DO THROUGH THE NIGHT AND SLEEPLESS RAINY NIGHTS (?) TOO AAAA XOXO
the first time i watched you&i even though i had No idea what the storyline was and what was happening, i still cried at the end??
the difference between you&i and 23 is musical growth, and the difference between 23 and palette is personal growth. :^)
IU 😍😍😍😍
MY QUEEN IU! Thank you for reacting to her again!
When your happy they reacted TT
damn i wonder how theyd react to palette. that song was brilliant as well.
I really hope you guys could react to Sohyang TT. I've waited for that reaction for so longggg
You all should react to IU first album until now. I wanna see their reaction on IU progress through her music.
Those dance scenes with the gears of clocks turning around, made me remember of the movie Hugo.
If they had subtitles for 23 song, it would have been great, as it is very meaningful and realistic song even though it looks cute
아니 이사람들아 제목에 떡하니 "클래식 전공자" 라고 적혀있잖아요..;; 어떤 의도로 만든거겠어요.. 평범한 반응을 보고싶은거라면 그냥 일반 외국인들 반응 모음을 찾아서 봐요. 분석 관련 댓글을 보고싶어서 한국 댓글 찾아보는데 대부분이 영상 안 본다고 욕하고있네 참..
영상 제목이나 먼저 제대로 보고 들어오셔요..;;
I was waiting for them to mention Doctor Who in the You&I reaction
Yunyi 😭 I’m so happy to see. I thought that I couldn’t see her anymore in this channel.
finally.. finally.. react to my faves again IU. 😍💜💙👍
hope all of u love her unique n soothing voice😌🙆💖
