this song was definitely dedicated to close friends that she's lost. In the last few years she's lost 3 close friends to suicide, because of the unnecessary hate and pressure they received from the public. The lizard that turns into a dragon in the video represents one of those friends named Jonghyun, who was a part of the group Shinee, and sadly passed away a few years ago. He was also really close with Taehyung, and many people mourned his death. People say he was represented this way because he was known for being a huge fan of the pokemon charmander. The girl in white who ends up on the back of the dragon is speculated to represent the 2 other people she lost, Sulli and Goo hara, who were lost last year because of the amount of hate they received from the public. IU is most likely the girl in the plane, who cries while smiling while looking out the window seeing how happy they are in the afterlife, and her tear in the real life counterpart could represent that she's found some sort of closure. Overall a really good song, IU and Suga were said to have both contributed a lot to the production, finding themselves to work really well together because they had a lot in common.
Thank you for this information. I had heard about those deaths when I watched a video to better understand UGH! by BTS, but I didn’t know that IU was friends with any of the people who passed. That must have been devastating for her. I hope that she has been able to start healing from those loses.
Mia I wish we could find the IP address of poisonous ppl so they could get a taste of the same meal they dish out to others. I’m sure there is something out there for this
I feel like that first part when she says “So are u happy now?” Probably telling the haters that are they happy now that she lost the 2 most closest friends she had.
You were spot on with lyrics! IU's close friends Jonghuyn from Shinee and Sulli from a Girl group F(x) passed away, sadly they took their own lifes. Many fans think this song dedicated to them. 💔
Thank you. I had heard about the deaths in Kpop last year when I watch a video to better understand UGH! from BTS. It didn’t mention IU at all so I hadn’t realized that she was friends with any of the idols who passed. It’s very tragic and I hope that IU is able to find a way to heal from their loss.
IU has been in the industry since she was 15. She's a singer, songwriter, and actress. She's highly respected in South Korea. I know you mentioned only really listening to BTS, but I highly suggest checking out her other songs. She's not afraid to try different genres but her music overall is known to have a "healing" quality to it. I suggest checking out Blueming, Bbi Bbi, Palette, 23, Red Shoes, Ending Scene, and Through the Night to start. But she has tons of music!
Kudos to you for being so perceptive and emphatic when listening to this song. IU is not only a singer and music producer, but also a well respected lyricist in Korea. Her original songs almost always carry specific message for the audience. One theory is that the moments of IU in and around the house are her memories and the animation could represent the the imaginary world of those lost. While suffering from the pain of loss, our mind would create an alternate, happy ending for those we miss. That's the duality of the memory.
IU's voice will leave you choking most of the time especially with her ballads. The amount of emotion she can convey with a single breath and note is astounding.
It’s okay to be emotional . Even i cried I was a fan of Sulli and she was the one who introduced me to iu. So losing Sulli also impacted me but this song gave me some kind of closure
Thanks for watching. I will definitely check out more of her songs. She left quite an impression and I’ve had Eight on repeat all evening. Do you have any specific recommendation?
@@RoziReacts Her last few title tracks and singles are pretty upbeat: Twenty-three Palette Bbibbi Blueming If you want slower, more emotional songs, then: Through The Night Ending Scene Shs also writes her own lyrics, and is a fantastic lyricist, a lot of her songs are pretty meaningful (especially the first three I suggested) so you'll want to have captions on when watching 😊
I'm actually quite amazed by hlw you got the main idea so accurately without the context (her having lost close friends in these past few years) now this explanation is ofc not an official one but it's what most fans relate the lyrics and the symbolism in the mv to. IU is a, if not the, biggest artist of this generation in korea (with bts and other groups and artists too ofc) she isn't that much known to international kpop fans but yea she is huge and a respected senior to many new gen idols including bts. some background info on her: she debuted in 2008 when she was 15 years old and she is a soloist so she has been in the business for a very long time and has been through some very hard stuff at this young age but she came out of this journey as a legend honestly. eight is actually a part of her "age series" in which the songs are connected to the way she perceives life etc. at that current age. the first part of the series was twenty-three in 2015 (23 years old) and then palette in 2017 (25 years old) and now eight (28 years old). I recommend watching them as IU takes us on quite a journey of her thoughts and mentality changing throughout the years.. it's beautiful but with the addition of eight also heartbreaking and bittersweet in a sense. she has been producing, writing all of her songs herself ever since her chatshire album (with twenty-three as it's title track) in 2015 so her messages are quite personal so if you are interested, her side tracks in her albums are amazing and give more insight into her thoughts and her artistry
Thank you for all this info. I love the idea of an “age series” and I also love that she writes and produces her own music. I’ll definitely be reacting to more of her music in the future.
I cried as soon as the background singers came on because I understood what IU was doing and it was very touching. IU is always doing something for unknown singers to help them be heard and she is the only artist I know who does that a lot. You should also check out the song called "The Meaning of You" from her Flower Book Mark album, it's a very nice song also. Actually the entire album is great so check out all the songs from this album since many songs are a remake from the old songs by varies singers.
It was an extremely moving performance. It shows that she is incredibly humble and kind to have used her awards show stage to showcase lesser known background singers. Also thanks for the rec!
I’ve been watching reactions since this dropped and have cried during all of them, regardless if the reactor grasped the real meaning of this song and video, and I watched yours this morning while drinking my morning coffee and cried with you, like “yes, feel those feelings, let it out I’m right here with you” you weren’t aware of it but we had a moment together lol. It really hits hard for anyone who had experienced loss, and I’m so grateful you felt comfortable enough posting this even though you don’t often get emotional during reactions :) thank you for being so sweet to IU, she’s been my favorite artist for years. She’s kind of a chart bully and digital monster when her songs drop and Korea’s favorite, even though she gets a lot of hate and scrutiny from the korean public. It’s so warming knowing fans of BTS checking her out for the first time appreciate and like her. Your reaction was so lovely, Rozi!
Hi thank you for your reaction it's one of the most sincere ones I've found on the internet. I remember crying as well when I heard the song. She has this incredible ability of putting emotions of common people into her songs which I greatly appreciate. Listening to her songs gives you a healing feeling. For me her most recent released album hit the mark especially the Title track "Love Poem" I suggest you listen to it while reading the lyrics. That song helped me when I was having one of the toughest year. For an uplifting song I recommend Unlucky. Thank you again for reacting to IU.
She is really, sad that she doesn't have a higher sub count (and more views per reactions) but watching her videos from the beginning you can see her journey and the love for music and understanding of what is being brought forth is great, tired of the over-hyped reaction videos doing it just for the views and clout
Thanks for watching! I will definitely check out more from IU. Thanks for the recommendation. I’ve had this song on repeat since yesterday and it has me in my feels every time.
@@btsxtxt1188 I hope more international people know her music since we all know she puts in a lot of effort in her work. She's very down to earth and values her fans a lot. I attended her concert last year and to this day watching my videos from that day brings a very wide smile to my face ☺️
to add on what another comment said i think the theory about it being about her friends is more correct than not. especially since bts released ugh and yoongi (suga) participated in both songs production and lyrics. and we know bts refer to the hate artists actors and public figures recieve. im glad that suga participated in ius song and i hope shes found a friendship with bts or other people. i know many fans and non fans were worried about her how shes handling everything etc.
I can’t imagine losing so many friends, especially in such a short time. I also hope that she has found something/someone that can help her grieve/heal.
Her real name is Lee Ji-Eun and her stage name is IU. She is a soloist. She writes most of her songs and always puts a message in her songs. She has been in the industry for like i think 12 years now. This song is about her loosing her memories and she is downloading all of her memories happy and sad one. There are some theory that this song is about her 3 friend that passed away months ago. Her friends are also in the K-pop industry. The song is called EIGHT because she wants to express her self as an 28 years old woman. This song is a continuing song from 23 and Palette. 23 is about her being 23 years old and Palette is about her being 25 years old. She sometimes also write for other singers too. She also have a channel called IU official and Edam Entertaiment. And this english lyrics are kinda wrong. Suggestions: You And I and Above The Time ( watch it together because there is a continuing story ) Bbi Bbi Blueming Through The Night Good Day 23 Palette
The sci-fi device featured in the first scene of this video is for downloading personal memory to an external memory device. So she finally stores all her memories on a computer device in which her memories will be preserved forever. This song is very sad and very beautiful. I can't stop crying after watching this video. This work is comparable to Morzart's works in which beautiful melodies are always tinged with deep seated sorrow. In my opinion, this IU and BTS's work, "Eight" is more than just music video. It is a profound quest for humanity's single, the most universal and fundamental question.
Loved your reaction especially coz you watched the lyrics first . I think many ppl will think its an upbeat song which most of the reactors did and not know it has such an deep meaning. I teared up as well when i read the lyrics. Its so beautiful and relatable.
Thanks for watching! I always like to know the lyrics of a song, I think that lyrics are a very important aspect of music and helps you gain a better appreciation for a song. And I agree, the lyrics are beautiful and poignant and resonated a lot with me.
Im so happy, that IU shared what she feeling. And her fans understand that. Her beautiful and sweet voice touch our hearts, remember IU always said "Be healty, and every single time be happy and make that good memory, because we cannot back time" Just smile. :)
I first watched the music video with out lyrics and I cried ! Even with out knowing the meaning I felt this overwhelming pour of feelings I totally relate to your reaction thank you !
Thanks! I was really taken aback. I wasn’t expecting it to be a sad song and the lyrics were relatable for me so my emotions went haywire for a moment. It’s a beautiful song though and I’ve been playing it all evening.
please, take your time to read this. yes, this song is dedicated to her friends whom due to unfortunate events, arent in the world anymore. all three committed suicide. when her good friend sulli died, she's devastated. but whats more sad is that her other friend(hara) committed suicide weeks after sulli's death. hara, sulli, and iu are all great friends. hara have depression way before sulli died. so u could guess its the last straw for her. iu was performing at a concert that day. she's halfway through the concert when she heard of her second friend's(hara's) passing. let me tell you, the next song she sung absolutely broke my heart. please react to "Love Poem" by iu. its not a love story. its a song for her friends. I'll link two videos here, one with lyrics, the other doesn't, but its the concert where she found out about hara's death. please, react to it. tq lyric vid: czcams.com/video/qch5tdUQvYk/video.html concert vid: czcams.com/video/zi3XVBO9y78/video.html
Thanks for the info. I honestly can’t believe she had the strength to continue with the concert. I’ll add this to my list, but it my take me a while to steel myself enough to watch the concert version.
@@RoziReacts haha sure thanks a lot for considering! a lot of people didnt know about the concert, and also the song. but i was sure lucky to have found it! and that's what made me to become iu's fan. she's strong indeed❤️
IU is amazing. She's also similar to Suga & BTS in that she isn't afraid to discuss inner struggles & mental health. She battles eating disorders & there are several MV's out there where she discusses her battles & encourages other to find help.
Oh wow.. I really love it when artists aren’t afraid to tackle important, but taboo, topics. I look forward to listening to more from her in the future.
I'm a big fan since 2012.... love her music and now loving her dramas... she's one of a kind... her music touches my heart and she's an inspiration to me. I respect her as an artist and as a musician.
By the way for me.... most kpop soloist and groups when they perform they have to exude sexiness just to be able to sell their songs... wearing clothes normal people won't wear just to evoke sexuality... and we all knew that sells... but with IU her talent, her music, her voice, her emotions these makes her sell her music... thank you for reacting to her music... finally people all over the world found a gem like her.
It took kpop to bring tears to my eyes because of a song. This was the most emotional song I've ever heard, it's sad and uplifting at the same time. The most poignant part for me was when she wakes up and runs from room to room. A vivid part of a dream I had trying to catch up with my dad who had passed. I had never heard IU before this but will not neglect her after. She is an amazing talent. I really appreciated your vid.❤🙏🌝
Thank you for watching. Her lyrics really resonated with me as well. She deserves to be known more internationally and I look forward to hearing more of her work.
IU is singer song-writer and actress, most powerful artist in korea and she is sunbae/senior to bts and same age with SUGA. Kindly listen to her song you will love it. 💜💜
Thankful for your sincere reaction... im a fan of IU i know she is not really well known internationally but what i really admired about her is she really dont care about fame what really important to her is that she just write songs that connects to people... so most of her songs really hit the charts, all are perfect kill everytime she releases a song bcoz of how she wrote the lyrics of the song... even in the kpop industry she is so respected cause who she is now she work hard for it.. she is humble and genuine in heart.. she suffered a lot thru out her career but she always picks up herself and smile cause her dream is to be an artist who inspires her fans and she never fails... so lets enjoy more of her music...
Thank you for watching. It sounds like IU is a genuinely good person. I’m really impressed by her lyricism so far and I look forward to hearing more from her. :-)
@@RoziReacts she is good you can watch her vlogs (IU TV) mostly the content of her vlog is the behind the scene of her concerts and mv making... she updates her fans their... she really a good story teller and during her concert mostly korean stars are attending her concert... she always run her concert 3hrs and 2 hrs of encore... i supported her not just bcoz of how she do her music bt also bcoz of her personality as an artst... many people says shes an angel bt she wud always point out that she is not perfect she might make mistakes bt just enjoy the moment then feel the pressure of everything
I like how you try your best to understand the lyrics rather than just listening to the melody since IU is known to put a lot of efforts to her lyrics. For the MV, I think you got the most of it right. I believe the red button in the beginning is the recording button for the memories, and the orange screen asks back "Are you going to save all your memories?" Then she chooses "yes." So, the device is basically memory saving device. Lizard represents that 'someone' she lost without saying farewell, and all the moments with it would be the happy memories with that someone. IU in the dress would be IU after she lost that someone, looking back in the past, remembering good times with that someone. That is why IU in the airplane, IU in the dress, and futuristic IU are bursting in tears looking outside the wet window. (looking back in the happy memories) Turbulence and the rain could mean the incident that took away that someone/lizard. IU in the end slightly smiling then quickly fades to sadness would also be the mixed emotions from recording her memories. Of course, this is not official, just one of the theories from IU's Fandom that I found persuasive.
That’s pretty interesting. I think there was writing on the orange screen. Is that what it actually said? Asking if she wanted to save her memories? That’s such an interesting concept for a music video. I’m going to have to watch it again. I only have BTS and now IU as a reference, but Korean MVs are just so much better than American ones.
I just wanted to give you a hug! :( I see some others have filled you in on the background about the music, so I won't go into that. IU is also an amazing actress. One of my favorite k-dramas with her is Hotel de Luna. I think you can watch it for free online on either Kocowa or Viki. At least it was free when I watched it some weeks back. Getting sucked into k-dramas is a whole other world, too.
Thanks! I’ll have to look that up. I recently started getting into K-Dramas thanks to Netflix. I’ve watched like 3 of them now. I won’t name names because spoilers, but the last one I watched made me bawl like a baby. The other 2 were super funny though. :-)
i'm Vietnamese, and i'm a huge fan of IU over 7 years. She is regarded as NATIONAL MUSICAL TREASURE of Korea. She composed many songs that touch to many heart of listeners, "Dear name" is one of her song i extremely love, this song recalls again images of a biggest real accident in Korea happening in 2014, she wrote it to show her love to ill-fated victims. I cried listening to it. "Love Poem" is also so great. "Bbibbi" is song for all the haters and the sasaeng who try to invade her private life. The lyrics are so metaphorical. Her every song is a meaningful story. Although she is young, she's highly respected in South Korea and junior and senior artists by her talent
Thank you for all of the recommendations and the backstory. I look forward to reacting to these in the future. If they are anything like Eight, then I know the lyricism will be great. :-)
Just wanna say something about you saying this is the first time checking out anything in kpop outside of BTS. I was once like that, I had tried getting into kpop YEARS ago, but the two songs I checked out I wasnt into (still not into them today). Fast forward a few years and someone was talking to me about kpop, I was being close minded based on past experience, she recommended blackpink to me. I gave them a shot and was instantly hooked, after listening to their songs, and watching all of their variety appearances they had at that time a few years ago, I just kind of stuck to the few songs they had. I wasn't interested in trying other groups because I knew from trying others in the past I wasn't into them. But one day I decided to go through a kind of kpop time machine, exploring music from way back at the beginning of kpop in the early 90s, to newer stuff. At first there was a lot I wasn't into, but as I started to hear more I began picking up on things that they do different in kpop compared to other types of music. Song styles, mv styles, whatever else and I began to appreciate it much more beyond just the song I was hearing. Because when it all comes together, even the most cheesy type of mv/song is really great when everything is put together. Eventually I discovered IU through all of this and besides probably being the best person on earth with everything she does with donations etc, her music truly is top tier. It's worth it to give other artists a chance, because even if you dont like a majority of what you find, theres def the chance of finding something else you love as well.
I definitely agree on that. It’s not so much that I was reluctant to try anything else, it more that since I only started reacting to BTS a few months ago and they have so much content, I was (and still am) very much in the rabbit hole. I typically like trying new things and I usually give things a couple of tries before officially deciding if I like/dislike it. I figure that I may not like the first song I hear from a particular artist, but that doesn’t necessarily represent their whole discography so I should give them another chance. :-) Oh yeah, and just from what I’ve seen from BTS and the couple of reactions I’ve done to IU, KPOP really is something special. The amount of detail that goes into everything is amazing.
In 2012 IU wrote a cute little song named 'peach' that was a love song to her friend Sulli. In this MV, when the house scenes started there was a bright peach colored light. The happy woman in those memories was dressed in a style Sulli dressed in, quite unlike IU. And the girl in the second animation didn't resemble IU, it resembled Sulli.
As a huge fan of hers for 8 years (I think) already, all I can say is I recommend checking out more stuff of hers. There's really too many songs to recommend and everyone else have recommended good ones already. What I will say is check out her live performances. She sings as well if not better than her MVs.
IU has a heartbreaking song called "Lullaby". It's related to this theme. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have heard, and she has always had one of the best lyrics. Please check out that song.
Hi i love ur sincere reaction👍i suggest you check out her songs more, tbh her lyrics r so relatable & calm, such a lyrical genius 😍 💜Twenty three / palette (age series songs include eight) 💜Love poem 💜Bbibbi 💜Blueming Give it a try ok, u won't lose anything☺️
You should definitely watch IU the red shoes and Bibbi and pallette and she has so many good songs I was into her before BTS even came out actually she's one of my favorite female artists overall not even just kpop
That is high praise indeed. :-) I’m definitely planning on checking out more from her. I’ve really fallen in love with Eight and have been playing it on repeat.
As i heard this that girl in a white dress is sulli and she's running from this cruel world then she jumps and the lizard catch her wich means that lizard is Jonghyun and the girl in the plane is iu who is crying out of joy seeing her friends flying together but the song could it be maybe and about herself that she was depressed before or something like that I'm not really sure but for my opinion i think this song was made for Sulli and Jonghyun the way the lyrics perfectly fits them soo
Thank you for your reaction. IU is a solo artist since she debuted. She’s just uploaded her opinion from this link at the end of the video, and you also know how she is along the video czcams.com/video/O9e2oZXEKW8/video.html I recommend Love poem, above the time, you and I, BBIBBI, Autumn morning, heart, the visitor. Also, is you want to have a nice sleep, you should check on Through the night and lullaby. If you want to know what is going on with her in her Korean age, you should listen to Twenty-three (23); Pallete (25); Eight (28). She is a true artist who expresses her thoughts true a wonderfully written lyrics. Beyond that, she is also a great actor. You should watch My mister, hotel del luna
Thanks for the link and the recommendations. I watched the video and she seems like a really down-to-earth and humble person. It was really refreshing. I have actually reacted to Twenty-three already and my next IU reaction will be Palette so that I can finish off the age series. I was super impressed with her lyricism. :-)
Yes she is totally like what you said. I hope you could watch her live concerts. Beyond her vocal, great dancers, well known musician, and the wonderful quality of the live performance sound, she still make you happier when she talk to the audiences. I felt that she care her audiences from different countries a lot. I am going to check for you reactions. Thank you for telling me. By the way Love poem is really an inspiration song for people to live their life. You can checked more on video on CZcams Chanels call IU TV, and Edam. You can see back stages concert, and funny stuffs.
Try her song Dear Name, Sleepless Rainy Night, Love Poem and Knees for a start...if you like deep artist she is one of them. her live is way better than her studio or MV.
IU has been around from 2008 (child singer) but the same age as Min Yoongi, she is great at what she does and the biggest rival for BTS for the end of the year awards, she is really great, I personally love BBIBBi czcams.com/video/nM0xDI5R50E/video.html but she has so much more wiki bio en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IU_(singer) Min Yoongi has been either doing production for other singers and or being in the song it self can't pick my favorite but both Song Request and We Don't Together was both up for and award last year for the same award a few times en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suga_(rapper) and of course is first mixtape with for half of it you will need tissues RM has also colabled a few in recent years (a lot) favorite from last year is Younha Winter Flower czcams.com/video/OcCkAG_LO9Y/video.html and he has a mixtape and a playlist also , Hoseok hasn't done much other than is mixtape and Chicken Noodle Soup with Becky G but we are hoping for more as he is also very talented too.
@@RoziReacts Can't remember where I mentioned this, so the new Japanese album comes out July 15, TBA on time, will have 4 out of 13 new songs (just one is an into and one is an outro so not sure how long they are) since they are Japanese recommend do a short sinp and putting on your Patreon due to copyright (hell for all Japanese songs) Also not sure if anyone mention, the videos in Japanese like Run, I need you etc also are part of the story line?, they give more clues
Thanks for letting me know! I can’t wait! I have actually reacted to the Japanese versions of Run and I Need U because I saw them on my storyline to do list. I have them up on my Patreon. :-)
No problem at all. I wasn’t meaning any pressure. Since you had mentioned the Japanese versions of Run and I Need U, I just wanted to make sure you knew that I had already seen them. :-)
Its funny because you said "I've never hear kpop except BTS..., and now I start to listen to IU" XD :D maybe its just a problem in nomenclature, but actually in Korea kpop is just a part of kmusic. Kpop = idol music, and that kind of music (mostly) loved by teenagers and some ppl in early 20's. There are some other scenes like rap/hiphop/RnB, ballads, indie, folks, trot, rock, and jazz. That doesnt means kpop is not popular, yes its popular but its not crazily loved by people/general public. Koreans especially love their ballads :D and that's when we talk about IU .... :) I think IU is more like k-music singer, as her music now dominantly is ballads and even folks. And BTS, I think they have embarked from KPOP term, maybe they have created a new genre?! :D
@@RoziReacts ooh thank you :D czcams.com/video/jChho-zL8IQ/video.html this is IU's one, you can see how IU loved by S.Korea ppl for BTS, they did it so thorough, they interviewed bypasser every year from 2017=2020, so we can see the difference/the growth of public knowledge and appreciation to BTS. Maybe its hard to react to all that, so just pick one :p
Iu said that this song was not about Sulli nor Jonghyun but why did she said "so are u happy now finally happy now are you" and the lizard I swear to god Jonghyun loved that animal so if it wasn't for them then why put the lizard there im really confused
We can’t say for certain what an artist is thinking about when they create. But I’m sure multiple interpretations on the meaning of this song and the symbolism in the MV probably each have some truth to them.
Hola. Lo siento que no he puesto subtítulos en español en mis vídeos. Tengo tiempo limitado y por eso solo puedo escribir subtítulos para uno o dos videos cada semana y he elegido poner subtítulos solamente en mis reacciones de Dimash en este momento. Básicamente dije que me encanta mucho la canción y aunque suena feliz realmente es una canción sobre el luto. Sin duda, voy a reaccionar a IU otra vez.
Estoy usando el traductor de Google para esto, lo siento si esto sale mal (traduje sus comentarios) Sé que Rozi no tradujo el video, ya que eso lleva tiempo y creo que también tuvo trabajo ese día, pero este es un enlace al video que ha sido traducido al español para que al menos pueda saber lo que el cantante estaba cantando (si lo desea) czcams.com/video/SSW5_RziWO0/video.html
this song was definitely dedicated to close friends that she's lost. In the last few years she's lost 3 close friends to suicide, because of the unnecessary hate and pressure they received from the public.
The lizard that turns into a dragon in the video represents one of those friends named Jonghyun, who was a part of the group Shinee, and sadly passed away a few years ago. He was also really close with Taehyung, and many people mourned his death. People say he was represented this way because he was known for being a huge fan of the pokemon charmander. The girl in white who ends up on the back of the dragon is speculated to represent the 2 other people she lost, Sulli and Goo hara, who were lost last year because of the amount of hate they received from the public. IU is most likely the girl in the plane, who cries while smiling while looking out the window seeing how happy they are in the afterlife, and her tear in the real life counterpart could represent that she's found some sort of closure.
Overall a really good song, IU and Suga were said to have both contributed a lot to the production, finding themselves to work really well together because they had a lot in common.
Thank you for this information. I had heard about those deaths when I watched a video to better understand UGH! by BTS, but I didn’t know that IU was friends with any of the people who passed. That must have been devastating for her. I hope that she has been able to start healing from those loses.
Rozi Reacts Yess and I know if Idol have that mannn they should learn from IU how she handle freaking haters tho..
I'm crying 😢
Mia I wish we could find the IP address of poisonous ppl so they could get a taste of the same meal they dish out to others. I’m sure there is something out there for this
I feel like that first part when she says “So are u happy now?” Probably telling the haters that are they happy now that she lost the 2 most closest friends she had.
You were spot on with lyrics!
IU's close friends Jonghuyn from Shinee and Sulli from a Girl group F(x) passed away, sadly they took their own lifes. Many fans think this song dedicated to them. 💔
Thank you. I had heard about the deaths in Kpop last year when I watch a video to better understand UGH! from BTS. It didn’t mention IU at all so I hadn’t realized that she was friends with any of the idols who passed. It’s very tragic and I hope that IU is able to find a way to heal from their loss.
IU has been in the industry since she was 15. She's a singer, songwriter, and actress. She's highly respected in South Korea. I know you mentioned only really listening to BTS, but I highly suggest checking out her other songs. She's not afraid to try different genres but her music overall is known to have a "healing" quality to it. I suggest checking out Blueming, Bbi Bbi, Palette, 23, Red Shoes, Ending Scene, and Through the Night to start. But she has tons of music!
Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll add them to my list. I really liked this song and would like to hear more from IU. :-)
Kudos to you for being so perceptive and emphatic when listening to this song. IU is not only a singer and music producer, but also a well respected lyricist in Korea. Her original songs almost always carry specific message for the audience. One theory is that the moments of IU in and around the house are her memories and the animation could represent the the imaginary world of those lost. While suffering from the pain of loss, our mind would create an alternate, happy ending for those we miss. That's the duality of the memory.
Thanks for watching. That is an interesting theory. I can definitely see the truth in trying to imagine your loved ones in a happy place.
We all cry 😔😔 don't be sorry for that
IU's voice will leave you choking most of the time especially with her ballads. The amount of emotion she can convey with a single breath and note is astounding.
I can’t wait! :-) I tend to love emotional music.
It’s okay to be emotional . Even i cried
I was a fan of Sulli and she was the one who introduced me to iu. So losing Sulli also impacted me but this song gave me some kind of closure
This song is amazing, IU Great artist.
You should definitely check out more of IU. She's one of, if not THE, biggest artist in Korea right now. Everybody loves her
Thanks for watching. I will definitely check out more of her songs. She left quite an impression and I’ve had Eight on repeat all evening. Do you have any specific recommendation?
@@RoziReacts Her last few title tracks and singles are pretty upbeat:
Twenty-three
Palette
Bbibbi
Blueming
If you want slower, more emotional songs, then:
Through The Night
Ending Scene
Shs also writes her own lyrics, and is a fantastic lyricist, a lot of her songs are pretty meaningful (especially the first three I suggested) so you'll want to have captions on when watching 😊
Thank you! I’ll these to my list.
This song did get to me as well and IU is another amazing artist.
I'm actually quite amazed by hlw you got the main idea so accurately without the context (her having lost close friends in these past few years) now this explanation is ofc not an official one but it's what most fans relate the lyrics and the symbolism in the mv to.
IU is a, if not the, biggest artist of this generation in korea (with bts and other groups and artists too ofc) she isn't that much known to international kpop fans but yea she is huge and a respected senior to many new gen idols including bts.
some background info on her:
she debuted in 2008 when she was 15 years old and she is a soloist so she has been in the business for a very long time and has been through some very hard stuff at this young age but she came out of this journey as a legend honestly.
eight is actually a part of her "age series" in which the songs are connected to the way she perceives life etc. at that current age.
the first part of the series was twenty-three in 2015 (23 years old) and then palette in 2017 (25 years old) and now eight (28 years old).
I recommend watching them as IU takes us on quite a journey of her thoughts and mentality changing throughout the years.. it's beautiful but with the addition of eight also heartbreaking and bittersweet in a sense.
she has been producing, writing all of her songs herself ever since her chatshire album (with twenty-three as it's title track) in 2015 so her messages are quite personal so if you are interested, her side tracks in her albums are amazing and give more insight into her thoughts and her artistry
Thank you for all this info. I love the idea of an “age series” and I also love that she writes and produces her own music. I’ll definitely be reacting to more of her music in the future.
Queen of Kpop. IU’s songs r always amazing and healing at the same time. Collab of the century. 👸🏻🤴🏻💜
Thanks for watching. It really is a healing song, I can’t stop listening to it. I’ll definitely be checking out more from her. :-)
you should react to her ending scene mv and it has subs with it too, defintely made me shed a lot of tears lol! thanks for your reaction
Thanks for watching! I’ll add that to my list. :-)
I cried as soon as the background singers came on because I understood what IU was doing and it was very touching. IU is always doing something for unknown singers to help them be heard and she is the only artist I know who does that a lot. You should also check out the song called "The Meaning of You" from her Flower Book Mark album, it's a very nice song also. Actually the entire album is great so check out all the songs from this album since many songs are a remake from the old songs by varies singers.
It was an extremely moving performance. It shows that she is incredibly humble and kind to have used her awards show stage to showcase lesser known background singers.
Also thanks for the rec!
I’ve been watching reactions since this dropped and have cried during all of them, regardless if the reactor grasped the real meaning of this song and video, and I watched yours this morning while drinking my morning coffee and cried with you, like “yes, feel those feelings, let it out I’m right here with you” you weren’t aware of it but we had a moment together lol. It really hits hard for anyone who had experienced loss, and I’m so grateful you felt comfortable enough posting this even though you don’t often get emotional during reactions :) thank you for being so sweet to IU, she’s been my favorite artist for years. She’s kind of a chart bully and digital monster when her songs drop and Korea’s favorite, even though she gets a lot of hate and scrutiny from the korean public. It’s so warming knowing fans of BTS checking her out for the first time appreciate and like her. Your reaction was so lovely, Rozi!
Lol. I’m glad we shared a moment. :-) Thanks for watching, I’ll definitely be checking out more from IU in the future.
Hi thank you for your reaction it's one of the most sincere ones I've found on the internet. I remember crying as well when I heard the song. She has this incredible ability of putting emotions of common people into her songs which I greatly appreciate. Listening to her songs gives you a healing feeling. For me her most recent released album hit the mark especially the Title track "Love Poem" I suggest you listen to it while reading the lyrics. That song helped me when I was having one of the toughest year. For an uplifting song I recommend Unlucky. Thank you again for reacting to IU.
She is really, sad that she doesn't have a higher sub count (and more views per reactions) but watching her videos from the beginning you can see her journey and the love for music and understanding of what is being brought forth is great, tired of the over-hyped reaction videos doing it just for the views and clout
Thanks for watching! I will definitely check out more from IU. Thanks for the recommendation. I’ve had this song on repeat since yesterday and it has me in my feels every time.
@BTS x TXT Aww.. thank you! I appreciate it. (Insert Purple Heart Here) - my emojis don’t work in this app!
@@btsxtxt1188 I hope more international people know her music since we all know she puts in a lot of effort in her work. She's very down to earth and values her fans a lot. I attended her concert last year and to this day watching my videos from that day brings a very wide smile to my face ☺️
Listening to this song reminds me of those friends who somehow also part of my youth I watched them debut and blossomed to great artist
to add on what another comment said i think the theory about it being about her friends is more correct than not. especially since bts released ugh and yoongi (suga) participated in both songs production and lyrics. and we know bts refer to the hate artists actors and public figures recieve. im glad that suga participated in ius song and i hope shes found a friendship with bts or other people. i know many fans and non fans were worried about her how shes handling everything etc.
I can’t imagine losing so many friends, especially in such a short time. I also hope that she has found something/someone that can help her grieve/heal.
Girl in white dress is Sulli, Hara's nickname was iguana, the lizard and Jonhhyun's dragon, character Charmander from Pokemon.
I'm also crying😭
I have goosebumps everwhere
Her real name is Lee Ji-Eun and her stage name is IU. She is a soloist. She writes most of her songs and always puts a message in her songs. She has been in the industry for like i think 12 years now. This song is about her loosing her memories and she is downloading all of her memories happy and sad one. There are some theory that this song is about her 3 friend that passed away months ago. Her friends are also in the K-pop industry. The song is called EIGHT because she wants to express her self as an 28 years old woman. This song is a continuing song from 23 and Palette. 23 is about her being 23 years old and Palette is about her being 25 years old. She sometimes also write for other singers too. She also have a channel called IU official and Edam Entertaiment. And this english lyrics are kinda wrong.
Suggestions:
You And I and Above The Time ( watch it together because there is a continuing story )
Bbi Bbi
Blueming
Through The Night
Good Day
23
Palette
The sci-fi device featured in the first scene of this video is for downloading personal memory to an external memory device. So she finally stores all her memories on a computer device in which her memories will be preserved forever. This song is very sad and very beautiful. I can't stop crying after watching this video. This work is comparable to Morzart's works in which beautiful melodies are always tinged with deep seated sorrow. In my opinion, this IU and BTS's work, "Eight" is more than just music video. It is a profound quest for humanity's single, the most universal and fundamental question.
It is a masterpiece. :-)
Best analysis and reaction ever 💜🖤
Loved your reaction especially coz you watched the lyrics first . I think many ppl will think its an upbeat song which most of the reactors did and not know it has such an deep meaning. I teared up as well when i read the lyrics. Its so beautiful and relatable.
Thanks for watching! I always like to know the lyrics of a song, I think that lyrics are a very important aspect of music and helps you gain a better appreciation for a song. And I agree, the lyrics are beautiful and poignant and resonated a lot with me.
Beautiful job with your reaction. I really appreciate your thoughts.
Thank you. 😊
This is the best reaction. You are full of insights. I'm gonna recommend your channel.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it! :-)
Im so happy, that IU shared what she feeling. And her fans understand that. Her beautiful and sweet voice touch our hearts, remember IU always said "Be healty, and every single time be happy and make that good memory, because we cannot back time" Just smile. :)
Aww.. she sounds like a really sweet person. I look forward to getting to know her more.
I first watched the music video with out lyrics and I cried ! Even with out knowing the meaning I felt this overwhelming pour of feelings I totally relate to your reaction thank you !
Thanks! I was really taken aback. I wasn’t expecting it to be a sad song and the lyrics were relatable for me so my emotions went haywire for a moment. It’s a beautiful song though and I’ve been playing it all evening.
Rozi Reacts me too! I can’t get tired of it . Hope to see more reactions from you !
please, take your time to read this.
yes, this song is dedicated to her friends whom due to unfortunate events, arent in the world anymore. all three committed suicide. when her good friend sulli died, she's devastated. but whats more sad is that her other friend(hara) committed suicide weeks after sulli's death. hara, sulli, and iu are all great friends. hara have depression way before sulli died. so u could guess its the last straw for her.
iu was performing at a concert that day. she's halfway through the concert when she heard of her second friend's(hara's) passing. let me tell you, the next song she sung absolutely broke my heart.
please react to "Love Poem" by iu. its not a love story. its a song for her friends.
I'll link two videos here, one with lyrics, the other doesn't, but its the concert where she found out about hara's death. please, react to it. tq

Thanks for the info. I honestly can’t believe she had the strength to continue with the concert. I’ll add this to my list, but it my take me a while to steel myself enough to watch the concert version.
@@RoziReacts haha sure thanks a lot for considering! a lot of people didnt know about the concert, and also the song. but i was sure lucky to have found it! and that's what made me to become iu's fan. she's strong indeed❤️
IU 💜
IU is amazing. She's also similar to Suga & BTS in that she isn't afraid to discuss inner struggles & mental health. She battles eating disorders & there are several MV's out there where she discusses her battles & encourages other to find help.
Oh wow.. I really love it when artists aren’t afraid to tackle important, but taboo, topics. I look forward to listening to more from her in the future.
yes she is a solo artist
Thank you!
I'm a big fan since 2012.... love her music and now loving her dramas... she's one of a kind... her music touches my heart and she's an inspiration to me. I respect her as an artist and as a musician.
By the way for me.... most kpop soloist and groups when they perform they have to exude sexiness just to be able to sell their songs... wearing clothes normal people won't wear just to evoke sexuality... and we all knew that sells... but with IU her talent, her music, her voice, her emotions these makes her sell her music... thank you for reacting to her music... finally people all over the world found a gem like her.
It took kpop to bring tears to my eyes because of a song. This was the most emotional song I've ever heard, it's sad and uplifting at the same time. The most poignant part for me was when she wakes up and runs from room to room. A vivid part of a dream I had trying to catch up with my dad who had passed.
I had never heard IU before this but will not neglect her after. She is an amazing talent. I really appreciated your vid.❤🙏🌝
Thank you for watching. Her lyrics really resonated with me as well. She deserves to be known more internationally and I look forward to hearing more of her work.
thank u for reacting to iu
Thanks for watching. :-)
The best reaction ever. I am crying too
Thanks for watching! It’s such an emotional song.
IU she is a kpop queen she is the best solo artist in Korea
IU is singer song-writer and actress, most powerful artist in korea and she is sunbae/senior to bts and same age with SUGA. Kindly listen to her song you will love it. 💜💜
Thank you! I’m looking forward to hearing more from her. :-)
Thankful for your sincere reaction... im a fan of IU i know she is not really well known internationally but what i really admired about her is she really dont care about fame what really important to her is that she just write songs that connects to people... so most of her songs really hit the charts, all are perfect kill everytime she releases a song bcoz of how she wrote the lyrics of the song... even in the kpop industry she is so respected cause who she is now she work hard for it.. she is humble and genuine in heart.. she suffered a lot thru out her career but she always picks up herself and smile cause her dream is to be an artist who inspires her fans and she never fails... so lets enjoy more of her music...
Thank you for watching. It sounds like IU is a genuinely good person. I’m really impressed by her lyricism so far and I look forward to hearing more from her. :-)
@@RoziReacts she is good you can watch her vlogs (IU TV) mostly the content of her vlog is the behind the scene of her concerts and mv making... she updates her fans their... she really a good story teller and during her concert mostly korean stars are attending her concert... she always run her concert 3hrs and 2 hrs of encore... i supported her not just bcoz of how she do her music bt also bcoz of her personality as an artst... many people says shes an angel bt she wud always point out that she is not perfect she might make mistakes bt just enjoy the moment then feel the pressure of everything
I like how you try your best to understand the lyrics rather than just listening to the melody since IU is known to put a lot of efforts to her lyrics.
For the MV, I think you got the most of it right. I believe the red button in the beginning is the recording button for the memories, and the orange screen asks back "Are you going to save all your memories?" Then she chooses "yes." So, the device is basically memory saving device.
Lizard represents that 'someone' she lost without saying farewell, and all the moments with it would be the happy memories with that someone. IU in the dress would be IU after she lost that someone, looking back in the past, remembering good times with that someone. That is why IU in the airplane, IU in the dress, and futuristic IU are bursting in tears looking outside the wet window. (looking back in the happy memories) Turbulence and the rain could mean the incident that took away that someone/lizard. IU in the end slightly smiling then quickly fades to sadness would also be the mixed emotions from recording her memories.
Of course, this is not official, just one of the theories from IU's Fandom that I found persuasive.
That’s pretty interesting. I think there was writing on the orange screen. Is that what it actually said? Asking if she wanted to save her memories? That’s such an interesting concept for a music video. I’m going to have to watch it again. I only have BTS and now IU as a reference, but Korean MVs are just so much better than American ones.
I just wanted to give you a hug! :(
I see some others have filled you in on the background about the music, so I won't go into that.
IU is also an amazing actress. One of my favorite k-dramas with her is Hotel de Luna. I think you can watch it for free online on either Kocowa or Viki. At least it was free when I watched it some weeks back. Getting sucked into k-dramas is a whole other world, too.
Thanks! I’ll have to look that up. I recently started getting into K-Dramas thanks to Netflix. I’ve watched like 3 of them now. I won’t name names because spoilers, but the last one I watched made me bawl like a baby. The other 2 were super funny though. :-)
i'm Vietnamese, and i'm a huge fan of IU over 7 years. She is regarded as NATIONAL MUSICAL TREASURE of Korea. She composed many songs that touch to many heart of listeners, "Dear name" is one of her song i extremely love, this song recalls again images of a biggest real accident in Korea happening in 2014, she wrote it to show her love to ill-fated victims. I cried listening to it. "Love Poem" is also so great. "Bbibbi" is song for all the haters and the sasaeng who try to invade her private life. The lyrics are so metaphorical. Her every song is a meaningful story. Although she is young, she's highly respected in South Korea and junior and senior artists by her talent
Thank you for all of the recommendations and the backstory. I look forward to reacting to these in the future. If they are anything like Eight, then I know the lyricism will be great. :-)
Just wanna say something about you saying this is the first time checking out anything in kpop outside of BTS. I was once like that, I had tried getting into kpop YEARS ago, but the two songs I checked out I wasnt into (still not into them today). Fast forward a few years and someone was talking to me about kpop, I was being close minded based on past experience, she recommended blackpink to me. I gave them a shot and was instantly hooked, after listening to their songs, and watching all of their variety appearances they had at that time a few years ago, I just kind of stuck to the few songs they had. I wasn't interested in trying other groups because I knew from trying others in the past I wasn't into them. But one day I decided to go through a kind of kpop time machine, exploring music from way back at the beginning of kpop in the early 90s, to newer stuff. At first there was a lot I wasn't into, but as I started to hear more I began picking up on things that they do different in kpop compared to other types of music. Song styles, mv styles, whatever else and I began to appreciate it much more beyond just the song I was hearing. Because when it all comes together, even the most cheesy type of mv/song is really great when everything is put together. Eventually I discovered IU through all of this and besides probably being the best person on earth with everything she does with donations etc, her music truly is top tier. It's worth it to give other artists a chance, because even if you dont like a majority of what you find, theres def the chance of finding something else you love as well.
I definitely agree on that. It’s not so much that I was reluctant to try anything else, it more that since I only started reacting to BTS a few months ago and they have so much content, I was (and still am) very much in the rabbit hole. I typically like trying new things and I usually give things a couple of tries before officially deciding if I like/dislike it. I figure that I may not like the first song I hear from a particular artist, but that doesn’t necessarily represent their whole discography so I should give them another chance. :-)
Oh yeah, and just from what I’ve seen from BTS and the couple of reactions I’ve done to IU, KPOP really is something special. The amount of detail that goes into everything is amazing.
In 2012 IU wrote a cute little song named 'peach' that was a love song to her friend Sulli. In this MV, when the house scenes started there was a bright peach colored light. The happy woman in those memories was dressed in a style Sulli dressed in, quite unlike IU. And the girl in the second animation didn't resemble IU, it resembled Sulli.
As a huge fan of hers for 8 years (I think) already, all I can say is I recommend checking out more stuff of hers. There's really too many songs to recommend and everyone else have recommended good ones already. What I will say is check out her live performances. She sings as well if not better than her MVs.
Thanks for the advice. I'll make sure to include some live performances on my to do list.
IU has a heartbreaking song called "Lullaby". It's related to this theme. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have heard, and she has always had one of the best lyrics. Please check out that song.
Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll add it to my list. :-)
Hi i love ur sincere reaction👍i suggest you check out her songs more, tbh her lyrics r so relatable & calm, such a lyrical genius 😍
💜Twenty three / palette (age series songs include eight)
💜Love poem
💜Bbibbi
💜Blueming
Give it a try ok, u won't lose anything☺️
Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll make sure to check those out. :-)
If you want to checkout some IU MV, I recommend you to watch through the night, above the time, you and I, good day, friday, and ending scene
Thank you for the recommendations, I’ll add them to my list. :-)
i just wanna hug u
Aww.. I really appreciate that. You’re kind. :-)
Me as well? I only listen to BTS, however if Suga has a high esteem for her, then I’ll check her out
I recommend it IU "through the night"
Thank you for the recommendation. :-)
You should definitely watch IU the red shoes and Bibbi and pallette and she has so many good songs I was into her before BTS even came out actually she's one of my favorite female artists overall not even just kpop
That is high praise indeed. :-) I’m definitely planning on checking out more from her. I’ve really fallen in love with Eight and have been playing it on repeat.
@@RoziReacts such a good song
Try Love Poem by IU, you'll bawl your tears out.
Thanks! I’ll put it in my list. :-)
You should reaction to more IU song 😭💜 like good day - BBi BBi and more
Thanks for the recommendations. :-)
Lots of people in first time reaction videos crying to IU these days.
Her lyrics are very touching and must resonate with a lot of people (myself included). Thanks for watching. :-)
Pls check love poem. You will love it. It is a healing song.
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll put it on my list. :-)
As i heard this that girl in a white dress is sulli and she's running from this cruel world then she jumps and the lizard catch her wich means that lizard is Jonghyun and the girl in the plane is iu who is crying out of joy seeing her friends flying together but the song could it be maybe and about herself that she was depressed before or something like that I'm not really sure but for my opinion i think this song was made for Sulli and Jonghyun the way the lyrics perfectly fits them soo
Thank you for your reaction. IU is a solo artist since she debuted. She’s just uploaded her opinion from this link at the end of the video, and you also know how she is along the video czcams.com/video/O9e2oZXEKW8/video.html
I recommend Love poem, above the time, you and I, BBIBBI, Autumn morning, heart, the visitor. Also, is you want to have a nice sleep, you should check on Through the night and lullaby. If you want to know what is going on with her in her Korean age, you should listen to Twenty-three (23); Pallete (25); Eight (28). She is a true artist who expresses her thoughts true a wonderfully written lyrics. Beyond that, she is also a great actor. You should watch My mister, hotel del luna
Thanks for the link and the recommendations. I watched the video and she seems like a really down-to-earth and humble person. It was really refreshing. I have actually reacted to Twenty-three already and my next IU reaction will be Palette so that I can finish off the age series. I was super impressed with her lyricism. :-)
Yes she is totally like what you said. I hope you could watch her live concerts. Beyond her vocal, great dancers, well known musician, and the wonderful quality of the live performance sound, she still make you happier when she talk to the audiences. I felt that she care her audiences from different countries a lot.
I am going to check for you reactions. Thank you for telling me. By the way Love poem is really an inspiration song for people to live their life. You can checked more on video on CZcams Chanels call IU TV, and Edam. You can see back stages concert, and funny stuffs.
ㅠㅠ 울지마세요
Try her song Dear Name, Sleepless Rainy Night, Love Poem and Knees for a start...if you like deep artist she is one of them. her live is way better than her studio or MV.
Thank you for the recommendations. :-)
IU has been around from 2008 (child singer) but the same age as Min Yoongi, she is great at what she does and the biggest rival for BTS for the end of the year awards, she is really great, I personally love BBIBBi czcams.com/video/nM0xDI5R50E/video.html but she has so much more wiki bio en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IU_(singer)
Min Yoongi has been either doing production for other singers and or being in the song it self can't pick my favorite but both Song Request and We Don't Together was both up for and award last year for the same award a few times en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suga_(rapper) and of course is first mixtape with for half of it you will need tissues
RM has also colabled a few in recent years (a lot) favorite from last year is Younha Winter Flower czcams.com/video/OcCkAG_LO9Y/video.html and he has a mixtape and a playlist also , Hoseok hasn't done much other than is mixtape and Chicken Noodle Soup with Becky G but we are hoping for more as he is also very talented too.
Thanks for the recommendations. I’ll add these to my list. I love a good collab and I also want to hear more from IU, she left an impression.
@@RoziReacts Can't remember where I mentioned this, so the new Japanese album comes out July 15, TBA on time, will have 4 out of 13 new songs (just one is an into and one is an outro so not sure how long they are) since they are Japanese recommend do a short sinp and putting on your Patreon due to copyright (hell for all Japanese songs)
Also not sure if anyone mention, the videos in Japanese like Run, I need you etc also are part of the story line?, they give more clues
Thanks for letting me know! I can’t wait! I have actually reacted to the Japanese versions of Run and I Need U because I saw them on my storyline to do list. I have them up on my Patreon. :-)
@@RoziReacts HI, sorry, I know I was supposed to go on Patreon for quite some time, been a bit busy but will check that out soon.
No problem at all. I wasn’t meaning any pressure. Since you had mentioned the Japanese versions of Run and I Need U, I just wanted to make sure you knew that I had already seen them. :-)
Please react to IU's song again....all the song is so emosional too 😉
I will definitely react to more IU. :-)
please react iu love poem ,dear name ,lullaby and through the night.
Thanks for the recommendations!
Actually IU wrote this Lyrics song for her friends 😭😭💔
the Korean on the machine says do u want to delete ur memories
Thank you! A lot of things in the video make more sense knowing that. :-)
Rozi Reacts sorry it should be save...🤣
Its funny because you said "I've never hear kpop except BTS..., and now I start to listen to IU" XD
:D
maybe its just a problem in nomenclature, but actually in Korea kpop is just a part of kmusic. Kpop = idol music, and that kind of music (mostly) loved by teenagers and some ppl in early 20's. There are some other scenes like rap/hiphop/RnB, ballads, indie, folks, trot, rock, and jazz. That doesnt means kpop is not popular, yes its popular but its not crazily loved by people/general public. Koreans especially love their ballads :D and that's when we talk about IU .... :)
I think IU is more like k-music singer, as her music now dominantly is ballads and even folks. And BTS, I think they have embarked from KPOP term, maybe they have created a new genre?! :D
Oops.. I didn’t realize. Thanks for letting me know!
@@RoziReacts dont worry 👍
Have you see DKDKTV's video about "what korean thinks about IU?" See their video with same title/theme about BTS too.
Oh, I haven’t seen either of those. I’ll add them to my list. :-)
@@RoziReacts ooh thank you :D
czcams.com/video/jChho-zL8IQ/video.html this is IU's one, you can see how IU loved by S.Korea ppl
for BTS, they did it so thorough, they interviewed bypasser every year from 2017=2020, so we can see the difference/the growth of public knowledge and appreciation to BTS. Maybe its hard to react to all that, so just pick one :p
Iu said that this song was not about Sulli nor Jonghyun but why did she said "so are u happy now finally happy now are you" and the lizard I swear to god Jonghyun loved that animal so if it wasn't for them then why put the lizard there im really confused
We can’t say for certain what an artist is thinking about when they create. But I’m sure multiple interpretations on the meaning of this song and the symbolism in the MV probably each have some truth to them.
Hola aunque no endiendo xd
Hola. Lo siento que no he puesto subtítulos en español en mis vídeos. Tengo tiempo limitado y por eso solo puedo escribir subtítulos para uno o dos videos cada semana y he elegido poner subtítulos solamente en mis reacciones de Dimash en este momento.
Básicamente dije que me encanta mucho la canción y aunque suena feliz realmente es una canción sobre el luto. Sin duda, voy a reaccionar a IU otra vez.
Estoy usando el traductor de Google para esto, lo siento si esto sale mal (traduje sus comentarios) Sé que Rozi no tradujo el video, ya que eso lleva tiempo y creo que también tuvo trabajo ese día, pero este es un enlace al video que ha sido traducido al español para que al menos pueda saber lo que el cantante estaba cantando (si lo desea) czcams.com/video/SSW5_RziWO0/video.html
