The fact she writes her lyrics and songs herself. So talented

[@hodyamorjohnnydepp9443]

The first time i listened to 'Ending Scene' i cried my eyes out. It made me so emotional

[@rodolfosoto2960]

You're right, yet after crying you'll feel better, healed. That is IU's signature.

[@hodyamorjohnnydepp9443]

@rodolfosoto2960 Indeed, she has a healing music

[@ELmayberry]

same 😢

[@mcmowgli07]

She can sing, dance, rap, act…. Absolutes goddess. Once in a generation gem

[@MBella123]

Through The Night is one of the most beautiful songs EVER. It’s just so stunning and delicate… I cry everytime I listen to it 💜

[@bingutoptoptop1505]

My IU faves are FRIDAY, DEAR NAME, PALETTE, and ABOVE THE TIME. IU's Palette ang Love Poem albums are icon! Even the B sides delivers.

[@samiraw1490]

through the night is my favorite iu song. its so peaceful and just sounds lovely🤍

[@marinoconnor8592]

If you want her to make you cry with her songs, listen to Dear Name and Love Poem in one reaction video. Also, check out some of her live performances if you want to be blown away by how she sounds without any assistance whatsoever.

[@taciturnip8729]

My Sea as well!

[@marinoconnor8592]

Agreed. But let's not kill the man. He needs to survive the video. @@taciturnip8729

[@pansybella]

Please do IU's Friday, Palette, Twenty three, red shoes, eight, good day, U&I...so many good songs. Her b-sides are so amazing as well!!

[@clokem2002]

IU is indeed multitalented. She is also an amazing host of her KZbin show Palette where she talk to her guests on their music/acting depending on who the guest is and they sing each other's song in their own style.

[@lenkcontent]

There are a lot of amazing artists out there but IU has that special spark. We cannot not love her honestly.

[@erica-lx8ff]

“My sea” is my favorite one!! It’s a great song to check out too❤

[@rodolfosoto2960]

IU is such an amazing singer, actress, genius composer and all around just an angel, but you need to see her in a live clip or concert to understand the deep of her talent. She'll just sing a song you already know, but you'll ask yourself o my gosh this is better than the MV, how could that be possible. She uses her own vocal support singers, her musicians and her amazing voice and control to give you a different yet seemingly better interpretation every time. Don't take my word for it, watch a live clip side by side the original MV.

[@AshishYadav-kz2iu]

Iu's music gets 10x hearing it Live...so some reactions to her live stuff will be great... especially her clips from her concerts, the last one or any older concerts also

[@ccusto1914]

Agreed! She sounds even better live. You should definitely react to some of her more recent live performances.

[@jieunification5]

What you said about knowing a singer has a really good voice, but they still surprise you...well, brace yourself (forever) because IU does that CONSTANTLY!!! She is the queen of surpassing everyone's expectations and always raising the bar. She always outdoes herself and doesn't ever miss. Tbh, I firmly believe that she doesn't get enough recognition for how incredible she is. It's seriously like she's an actual angel with heavenly powers or something. The amount of positive energy and joy that just pours out of her is unbelievable. When I discovered her, watching her just made me so happy that I went from a person who hated myself and hated life and wished I would die everyday, to someone who is happier than I ever thought was humanly possible and I love myself, I can see beauty in almost everything and I've never even once hoped my life would end ever since. If there's someone that beautiful and good in the world, then life is definitely worth living. I look forward to every day now and that's a gift she gave me. The most beautiful, precious gift that anyone can ever receive. This is what IU does. Brace yourself for a life full of previously unparalleled joy from the most precious person you'll ever know. And welcome to the Uaena fandom. We're all glad to have you.

[@emilynick4941]

Well said I can relate to ur experience I stumbled upon her in 2017 when I was in rehab for suicidal attempts and it was the time Jonghyun had died but she brought back that spark for me to want to live again. She’s proof that God doesn’t give up on us no matter the situation

[@leloka2348]

👏👏👏💜

[@chaewonrise]

she will forever be my favourite soloist, her voice and music is unmatched

[@kpppuser516]

They've known each other since they were teenagers Their first TV drama together was "Dream High" She is also a good actress Recommend you to see "Hotel Del Luna"and"My Mister"

[@wherethegreengrassgrow]

And they're also a side couple kinda in "The Producer" 🥰

[@2ne121stcentury]

23, palette and eight are great songs to check out too!!

[@startledchicken1939]

coin and good day as well!

[@heyvkj2412]

Through the night is my all-time fav what a beautiful beautiful song i cry everytime

[@bbokaeri_stay]

Palette and Above The Time is my fav song from her. Her voice is so beautiful and warm

[@cucuda3629]

Killing voice iu ❤❤❤

[@franckielouann4651]

21:08 yes he is an up and rising actor, he was one of the residents in the series Hospital Playlist.

[@yew2515]

If you like pianos I recommend IU's "Secret" from her Last Fantasy album, which has many orchestral songs. Out of all of them, Secret feels really magical. I really recommend it. IU's does sometimes reference her old songs in her other songs, but you can still enjoy it. In Lilac, IU tell a story of 2 lover saying goodbye to each other, and about embracing the ending. This is an extended metaphor for IU saying goodbye to her 20s. The train in the MV shows the journey though her 20s. In the train station, you can see all the albums and singles she has realised in her 20s as platforms. In the second verse IU uses lyrics from her first major song "Good Day" and the small piano notes in the background are also from Good Day.

[@carlomart2191]

Cant wait for more IU; the visitor, soulmate and good day are the ones that I always play twice when they appear on my playlist

[@jeffreystone22]

I discovered IU in 2015 when Catshire album came out and was just overwhelmed. I went looking and found the Modern Times album and listened to it non-stop for two weeks on You Tube. I was just floored. I had been listening to KPOP for about 3 years by then and Ailee had been my favorite soloist up until then. I have loved everything since then, except Strawberry Moon. It's the first song that never worked for me as it feels like it's missing something.

[@danbruins]

Loved this! Can't wait for more IU reactions. Some of my favorites which I'm sure are on your list are Good Day, You & I, Red Shoes, Twenty-Three, and Palette.

[@eric-rm4zv]

That bridge in strawberry moon gives me goosebumps every time, pallette is still my favorite along with celebrity, iu is perfect its known, everyone loves her and she deserves all the praise

[@arjo5513]

You're one of the only reactors who got the conversation aspect of Ending Scene on first watch. You're absolutely spot on!

[@crimeyfruit5676]

“Dear Name” is also a ballad track from palette, it’s a b-side but I highly suggest checking it out bc it’s my favorite ballad from her by far and it’s just sooooooooo good

[@lilly1437]

Yes WOW. The more you get to know her you will be more amazed with everything that she does. Please watch a live performance by her.

[@stluff]

Great reactions, love all IU songs, I think the only MV's related are You and I and Above the time, they are 8 or 9 years apart but above the time continue the story of you and I, is also the same actor in both videos.

[@lelmdrWHO]

I am obsessed with Lilac!

[@franckielouann4651]

For me, IU's Palette is so far..her best album of all her releases..❤

[@Betakitten87]

Ending scene makes me BAWL every time

[@kimiya1509]

lilac mv - if you see the board at the start of the video, its the list of songs she release in her twenties to lilac (in her 30s), the song is about saying goodbye to her twenties and welcoming herself in her 30s... the guy on the MV who is holding a trumpet is the same guy that appeared on her MV for GOOD DAY (the song that made her the superstar IU today)

[@ivanalujan3383]

Una de las mejores artistas del planeta!!!! Es maravillosa!!! Descubrirla es un viaje sin retorno. Queremos más y más y a medida que descubrimos sus letras y música no se puede creer que exista alguien tan increíble... Su voz traspasa las almas... Obviamente es mi artista koreana favorita... La Reina de la industria... No hay quien pueda contra ella.... Hermosa IU ❤️❤️❤️SALUDOS.. EXCELENTE REACCIÓN A SU MÚSICA.

[@bushyhs7942]

i get you so much 😭 you never wanna come out of iu world. she is insane

[@mkoose]

IU, Yes what a journey. am a bit envious that you can hear them for the first time ;-)

[@jieunsoloist]

All the songs in this video are written by IU. She's amazing. next Good day & You&I It was these songs that made her a legend in the Korean industry. ❤

[@richard6025]

There is reason why she is the queen of Korea

[@chet10367]

Enjoying your IU journey - Ending Scene and Through the Night are among my favorites from her discography plus many others

[@otubudemilade3540]

The ‘what do I do now,I have to go back to my normal life’😂

[@francessev2210]

Lilac was IU's walk down memory lane of her incredible, eventful twenties. Remembering her struggles and successes as she was about to turn 30. You done well IU. You done well. ❤ Thanks for the reaction. Hope you do IU's Killing Voice too.☺️

[@meyoumeyou.-.]

the actor in strawberry moon name's jungwon he acted in the golden spoon along w btob's sungjae after his mv with iu

[@elle_2105]

I'm back here again 😭 You should definitely check out Dear Name and the song that she released which corresponds to her age (twenty-three, Palette, eight), and my sea

[@clokem2002]

If you like the piano so much you should check out her song By The Stream with just IU vocals accompanied by the piano (by Jung Jaeil who did the soundtrack for the movies Parasite and Broker) and interspersed with the cello. IU said that was her best vocal performance until then. Make sure to react to the live performance❤

[@aldrineramos384]

Through the night is such an iconic song!

[@barb0211]

love all these songs! you can react to twenty-three, palette and eight next, they're all kinda connected

[@JeusAlprime108]

These are her age series almost act as her diary that pinpoint and recorded her growth at age 23, 25 and 28. Supposingly the next one should be at her age 32 due to +2,+3,+4 sequence, yet korea government just change their age counting system, so her age 32 was delay due to this reason. Btw fyi a bit of TMI, there are two version of twenty-three/23, Twenty-three is her age series song, while 23 is an OST she sing for a kdrama The Producers where she is portrayed as an idol singer in the drama too, that's why she need to contribute an idol song for that role.

[@kaitlyn3008]

I recommend checking out My Sea (the lyric video), Can’t Love You Anymore (with Ohhyuk), Friday, Love Poem, and Palette (feat. GDragon)! I think you’d really enjoy them :)

[@비오는새벽]

IU🤩🤩🤩I can't wait to see the next episode!

[@Ronnie_C]

When IU come to Hong Kong concert she sing "Through the night" cantonese version.

[@typing_2lip]

wahhh!!! first of all i love your outfit rj!

[@Mmmmorgan2001]

Lilac and Red Shoes are my all time favorite IU songs!!! I get chills every time I listen to Lilac 😌😌

[@secondlifeinjapan1345]

She writes almost every lyrics by herself. So beautiful as her voices.

[@isitbees]

I feel like Good Day, You&I, and Eight (ft. Suga) are musts when it comes to discovering IU and then i really like to add in Palette (ft. G Dragon) and My Sea (no MV but beautiful ballad)

[@croccola9058]

if u want to connected mvs and lyrics u should definetly watch "you&i" after that "above the time" this ones really connected every way the story lyrics mvs everything i hope u watch these ones 👀

[@TriceeXO]

Her MVs that are connected are “You&I” and “Above The Time” so if you decide to make another IU reaction vid, watch You & I first before Above The Time ☺️

[@peculiarrandom685]

Glad you are enjoying IU's music 🥰 There is more where that came from. Her dramas are amazing as well!

[@ujang2365]

you should see "The Golden Hour" live performance of eight and my sea. she was phenomenal right there

[@mariellarhynelanzarrote5448]

IU writes the best songs 🥹💟 She is an actress, singer, songwriter, producer and host. She can also play some music instrument and can rap! Most of all, she is very kind and everyone in the kpop or k-entertainment knows it. She is extraordinary 💟

[@jh_jang]

I highly recommend you see IU’s dingo killing voice!! it’s soooo goooood

[@kimiya1509]

Ending Scene and Through The Night is from the album Palette which was released from 2017 at her age 25, its the Album of the Year 2017 Lilac is from the album LILAC which was released in 2021 at her age 30, its the Album of the Year 2021 and Strawberry Moon was a gift for the fans in 2021 can't wait for more IU reactions

[@michaelfoley5295]

I am not sure if I mentioned this in my rather lengthy comment to your 1st reaction. In January of 2023 Rolling Stone Magazine released an update to their list of the Greatest 200 Singers of All Time and IU became the first Korean singer to ever make the list. Through the Night was written by her. She considers a remake of a classic Korean folk song, With a Determined Heart to forget You, to be Part 2 of Through the Night, I have included a link to IU's concert performance of that that song below. Spesking of that, you may already know that IU uses her songs to tell a story. Some of those stories span 2 or more songs. Lilac is a stand alone story of IU's journey through her 20's. Strawberry Moon, however coukd be consideref part 4 of a story started in 2011 with You and I, followed up in 2019 with Above the Time continued with Blueming. Strawberry Moon's story line fits in nicely with the other 3 bringing the story to a conclusion. I readily admint that the symbolism used to connect the other 3 songs isnt readily apparent in Strawberry Moon so those who want to say I am wrong have a point. By the way during her Golden Hour concert she sang this song while riding in a hot air balloon that travel around the stadium at the upper deck level. With a Determined Heart to Forget You. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHS3mYWKbbaDf6M A few more links for you.

[@nickyzh9914]

She is a singer , artist as well as actor. Basically, the lyrics of most of the song in her recent album is written by herself. Besides thwt, she is such a kind person as well. I never imagine she as a such popular artist, and she put herself in a doll costume, just to surprise her fans, and she even give the fans her credit card to buy her merchandise. What a lovely person she is. Besides, you may look into her latest palette video, what she sing the four time around Sun by NELL, it is so nice.❤ Anyway, As a Uaena ( IU fandom) I am.appreciated and many thanks for your video. Love your reaction as well😂

[@ramandrei_]

please please react to BLUEMING and HOLD MY HAND live concert stages !! you'll def see how good of a performer and singer she is

[@nanawilliams]

"What do I do now? I just have to go back to my normal life?"😭. RJ won't kill me with laughter😭

[@twogabbies]

Finally IU!!! My favorite solo artist of ALL TIME! She always deliverssss

[@mkoose]

You should watch a palette show of hers from the official channel. Just pick a guest you are interested in or any show for that matter since IU is in it ;-)

[@kimiya1509]

through the night is a song for people who has a hard time sleeping, IU has insomnia, so she wrote this song

[@Sketchisim2004]

love poem and goodday nexttt

[@iambarryallen]

I started with IU in kpop and have such a hard time stanning other idols and groups. She is the standard, complete package like the whole kentertainment industry in one tiny cute human.

[@NoobGaming-nq9kl]

wow your reactions are a treat!

[@midnightpetal12]

Great song choices there!

[@Spikespiegs]

You should watch My Mister, my all-time favorite Kdrama that also happens to star IU. It's Ok to Not Be Ok is also comfortably in my top 5.

[@desiraevang]

Ending Scene and Through The Night are my favorite IU songs 🥺🥺🥺 Also Knee is another song I love from IU! You should definitely react to Knee!

[@talitaferreira3069]

In the first video you asked what's the best order to listen to her songs, and the thing is that her music has to be listened to in chronological order to find a connection. Time and age is very important to IU, and she releases her albums according to the moment she is currently living. It's kinda hard to explain, but you should check out her "age welcoming songs". Lilac is one of them, it welcomes her 30's. IU writes her music like it's her diaries and if you watch in the right order you will be able to "see her growing old". Usually she has an album/Ep or single for each year or phase of her life, and I think you can find videos on KZbin explaining it. Some of the songs are 23 (for her 23th bday), Pallet (for 25th), eight (for 28th) and Lilac that welcomes the 30's and says bye to the 20's.

[@Cj-xp6de]

Theres a lot more good music from her cant wait for you to discover ... shes so talented

[@emrsn243]

RJ you GOTTA listen to Good Day from her SHE'S SUCH A DAMN TALENTED SINGER its such a great song I swear you'll love it!!!
