IU is literally the BIGGEST artist in korea! She wrote the song and co-produced it, she writes all her songs and produces all albums, all her releases get number one in korean charts and she’s known as the one of best lyricists (unfortunately a lot of the brilliance of her lyrics gets lost in translation but they’re still beautiful) you should check out more of her songs. I’d recommend her song I Can’t Love You Anymore featuring Hyuk Oh
I love IU but she didn't co-produce it. She wrote & co-composed it. The song has Suga as sole producer. Other than that IU is the most beloved artist in Korea & i think she is probably one of the best vocalists on the Globe as well.
@@후라이계란-x1o Can u link me to where u saw these credits ? Bcoz as far as Spotify, Wiki are concerned it lists only Suga as producer. But the official credits i remember seeing.. Songwriting : IU, Suga. Composition: Suga, IU, El Capitxn Arrangement: Suga, IU, El Capitxn Synth: Suga, El Capitxn Piano: Suga, El Capitxn Chorus: IU Bass, Guitar, etc by others. So Suga is the profucer & if anything El-Capitxn can be a co-producer. And IU is the main songwriter & co-composer.
IU is an amazing artist. she can sing, she can rap, she dances, she writes and produces her own music and she's also an actress. my favorite dramas from her are scarlet heart, my mister and hotel del luna. i totally recommend her. she's also down to earth and she doesn't gives a fuck about haters, she sues them all. she has a very strong mentality. also, there's a bunch of explanations to this video, the one i recommend is from dkdktv.
This is a song that IU and Suga have written together , according to a lot of theory and signs in the mv, it's about two best friends (Kim Jong-hyun and Sulli) of IU who comited suicide, the girl it was because of all the hate she received and the guys unfortunately I don't know (The lezard and the anime girl represents them) And I think it's called 8 because IU and Suga are the same age, so 28,and also because when you turn the number 8 it's makes the sign of infinity Y'all should listen to some of her song she's so d*nn talented And for better understanding, if y'all want or can, y'all should probably watch the explanation of this mv Thank you always for the reaction guys!
YESSSS FINALLY!! ILY GUYS U R THE BEST! pls react to more iu songs shes such a popular artist in kpop and shes so amazing they call her "charts monster" because she's always topping charts
You should do more reactions to IU. She has dominated the korean charts for the last decade, domestically she holds the records for streams, downloads and number of #1 hits.
K-media described Suga and IU as the King and Queen of Music Industry. Those two are quite similar in personality too. Both bookworms and introvert. Their collab is legendary. This is definitely part of Suga's masterpiece production.
I love IU!! My favorite korean singer!! She said in one of her videos that the name “Eight” comes from the sign of infinity about how the memories will stay forever and the forever young in the song, also both she and Suga are 28!! She writes her own lyrics and she always likes to leave them a little open to interpretation but the song is about missing someone and keeping them forever young in her memories with could be referring to the death of her 2 friends also kpop singers!!
Fun fact: The house in the mv is the same house in BTS' Life Goes On mv. Fun fact 2: Here is a live performance where IU sang SUGA's part: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tJM0yIbg8iQ.html Fun fact 3: IU is a singer-songwriter. For this song, IU wanted someone who can relate with her age-wise. The song is about the pains and gains of being a 28 year old artist.
Theories say that IU went down a memory lane: the house must be where she and her friends (who already passed away) hangout usually. The lizard was Jonghyun, the peach was Sulli. The other woman in white is also Sulli (correct me if I am wrong). Eight is from 28. Her age. The signal in tha plane is informing the passengers about turbulence. "So are you happy now?" - It is said that she was asking that line to her friends who passed away. It can also be interpreted as a question she asks herself about where she is now.
IU is very admirable. Actually Jungkook is a fan of her. He admire IU so much, he even has a crush on her. You should definitely check IU songs. But I recommend my favorite song of her "Palette and Blueming"
IU the legendary artist of S-Korea. She is the record holder for Korean charts perfect all kill. She looks young but been over 13 yrs in business since she was 15, a rare career longevity. She got so many great songs, for starters I suggest Good Day and Blueming.
IU is a solo artist and is hands down my fave. She's got amazing vocals and her song Love Poem is one of my faves, you should check out a live performance of it.
Love Poem is beautiful. I also love Lullaby from that album and Give You My Heart from the Crash Landing on You OST. I listen to them on repeat at night.
Everything IU releases tops the charts, she's a digital monster. If you want to, there's a video called "IU - eight explained by a korean", even though it's not based on facts it is a very interesting video and the theories are the ones that people in this comment section are talking about, her friends that died.
This song is dedicated to her really close friends in the Kpop industry who took their own lives, Sulli and Jong-Hyun. These two are both kpop artists. The girl with white dress running in the jungle and riding the dragon may represent Sulli. While the lizard/dragon could represent Jonghyun, who loved the Pokemon Charmander (a dragon). The song is from her “Age series” songs. ‘Twenty-Three’ when she turn 23. ‘Palette’ when she was 25. ‘Eight’ when she turn 28.
Hi guys IU is a singer songwriter the best soloist for the past decade in South Korea and she's only 27 years of age. You should check out her live performances e.g. Blueming live concert clip and Hold my hand which she composed at age of 17. 😊
IU (real name Lee Ji Eun), born in Seoul, 16 May 1993, and debuted in 18 September 2008 as solo singer. She rose to super-stardom in 2010 with her smash hit “Good Day”. Since then almost everything she released will shoot straight up to peak of chart in S.Korea. Since 2015 she took control of album producing and songwriting, but the chart killing didn’t stop. Now, 2021, 13 years after her debut she still kills the chart, still one of the most successful music acts in last 10-11 years, still releasing everlasting songs with various genre and good message, still idol of your kpop idols.
I love IU shes an amazing singer!! The girl on the dragon is her two best friends that past away and IU was the one on the plane watching her friends fly into the sunset (heaven) The song may sound upbeat up its actually very sad song of her remembering her friends and asking them if they are happy now in heaven
The song is about remembering happy memories with your friends and forget about the sad ones. IU has a two closed idol friends who both committed suicide. Some says that it is because of the pressure of being an idol. Suga helped IU to produce the song
I recommend watching the DKDKTV explanation to the song. And reading up on Sulli and Jonghyun. Also remember that last verse from Yoongi before Ugh ends? where he talks from the perspective of netizens bullying idols? We believe that is for them as well. Jonghyun was known to BTS. They went to his funeral. Shinee (the group Jonghyun was from) was an influence on them as well.
IU....what can i say about IU? She is a amazing solo artist and an amazing actress...i love her korean dramas as well as her amazing singing ability...u cay say that she is my lady crush....and Suga he is the best of best producer and composer and rapper
The title called "eight" because IU said when she and suga make the song they decided to title it with their age, since they are both 28. IU base her songs on her age. So that's why
I got to know through the dramas(three years ago) she acted before I discovered that she is also an amazing artist. Ever since that I have been a fan of her
This song for represent acceptance, like finally you are not angry anymore, you accept they are gone So time to time , May be intentionally or may be all of a sudden or may be in a lazy afternoon you remember them You are remember the most random stuff You remember their smile their gesture All you feel is a ltl sad yet smile for the old time You end up saying - hope you are happy now
This song made me cry. I lost my grandma a few days after discovering this song. Love IU and Suga. Also Listen to Yasabelle English version on this song. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bi46iDzFs48.html. Merry Christmas Alex and Allen. Stay safe.
I'm laughing when the two of you are still waiting if there something else on it after the song. The reaction guys while waiting until the end.I thought my phone hanged for awhile while you guys looks like a statue there. hahahaha
Have you guys reacted to Suga's seesaw yet? If you haven't, please do check it out. Suga also has collab with Halsey called "Suga's Interlude" and many others
IU is referring to Jonghyun and Sulli who are 2 of her friends who sadly committed suicide. The lizard reference is to Jonghyun and the girl in the white dress is actually Sulli which is why when she was looking out the window in the airplane and saw them her eyes were watery
Here is IU official youtube channel. She have put together a playlist of her albums so you can familiarize yourself with her songs. IU RU-vid channel: ru-vid.com/show-UC3SyT4_WLHzN7JmHQwKQZww IU Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/3HqSLMAZ3g3d5poNaI7GOU?si=IX7N_vXmR8GRETCBSWmA_A
To start off... IU is JK's ideal girl, and he's been very much vocal about it. ARMY started teasing JK upon the news of this collab, saying, "so that's why Yoongi wants to change his password (studio)". Lol
You should react the EXPLAINED video made by DKDKTV. You should do a reaction for that so you can fully understand the meaning of this song also the MV.
