  1. I like Park Bo Gum but am a bit worried since his drama will be competiting with IU's. Oh well,I guess we'll cross that bridge next month. Was this posted? Fanart always amazes me since I can't draw to save my life. Click here to view the Tweet Click here to view the Tweet IU's tickets are selling around 90% which is better than I expected. I assumed Yoona would be more popular in China since she acts in Chinese dramas but I guess Producers really helped IU. Hopefully Scarlet Heart will do the same.
  2. Ahhh,so that was Park Bo Gum. I saw pics of it and didn't realize it was him. Is that for their drama promotions? Seems like a cool way to promote.
  3. Click here to view the Tweet So maybe more KHN and IU moments? I'll take anything I can get. Their friendship seems cute P.S-I like Twice and Cheer Up. The song is strangely addicting. Although I think calling them the new national girl group is a bit premature to say the least. Also the fact that there seems to be no strong vocalist worries me though
  4. I forgot about that. The only reason I still am into Kpop is because of her so I will be sad if she leaves but it is her life so what she wants is definitely the most important. At least, she's been honest about it then. Still seeing how much she's grown as a singer-songwriter I always assumed it'd be something she'd be doing in the long run. As for Loen,they seem to have a good relationship with IU so if she does choose to retire or leave the company,I hope it won't become too messy.
  5. Kinda random but I was watching an old episode of Strong Heart with IU and she said that she'd like to quit after she gets married and be a housewife. That was back in 2012 though and I don't think she would do that now but it does make me a bit worried. I really hope she doesn't quit and at least continues being a singer even after she gets married to Ki Ha(I'm assuming they will) but the most important thing is her being happy.
  6. True, there aren't many singers out there whose songs line up the charts as soon as they release an album.I feel like even all those pressed Knetizens probably secretly have some IU songs downloaded because IU has tried out so many styles instead of always sticking to one thing which I really love about her. Even if some of her songs aren't to their tastes,I'm sure if people heard all of her songs they would find at least a couple which are to their taste. I'm sure there are quite a lot of adults in the international fandom because I've seen many mature discussions online but I tend to think that quite a large portion of the international fan base are young teenagers who are at the phase when they only care about good looking oppas or unnies and the flashy songs. I doubt they bother to listen to IU's music beyond her title tracks because most of them see her as competition for their faves at least digitally and so many fans tend to be irrational with a mindset that only my faves are the best. Even the adults sometimes can be irrational or petty. I've been spending more time on the internet lately and the immaturity and irrationality of people are constantly leaving me speechless. You just can't reason with some people. I love IU but I admit that she has flaws(who doesn't??) but for some fans that would be blasphemy.This leads them to trying to come out with excuses when their faves don't do well as well as hating on their competition. Fandom wars are so brutal tbh. Anyways IU will be slaying sometime next year with her music so I'll look forward to seeing the pressed people trying to find excuses for her success. Then again,the pressed people both Knetz and Inetz will be coming out when her drama releases. I really hope the drama does well but I'm kinda worried about it . Trying not to worry prematurely about all the ways they're going to pick on her.
  7. Thanks Blue and Miachu. I saw someone on NB put it this way, Taeyeon is strong in physical sales and IU is strong digitally and I think that perfectly sums up the situation. Taeyeon is the leader of a girl group which could be considered the National GG so obviously she had tons of fans who support her by buying her albums but I just wish those fans would recognize IU's achievements instead of ignoring them or finding reasons to belittle them but I guess when they stan someone they want her to be the best. IU might not sell as much as Taeyeon but she does sell at least 50k of her albums and so many people download her songs. I wonder what the number is for Taeyeon's songs Honestly,I love seeing IU kill the charts and I hope we get to see more of that but even IF she stops doing well on the charts(something I doubt will happen ),like you've all said plenty of times before,she'll still have longevity in her career and that's something I'm more proud of even if she doesn't sell as many albums as Taeyeon or whoever else.
  8. I've been curious about this for a while- how much do singers(in this case-IU) earn from royalties?Also does she only get royalties if she takes part in composing the song?I assume she gets royalties even when she doesn't compose but just writes lyrics but is that true? Like 10 or 20 percent? And I know that normally Korean companies take more than 50 percent of the groups earnings but is it the same for IU? Does anyone know anything about that?I just get curious about it sometimes. Way too many questions for a newbie to pester you with but since you all are more experienced Uaenas, I was wondering if you might know the answers to some of the questions.
  9. The chinese fans even prepared the lightsticks themselves. I wonder if they collect money for that or if someone sponsored it. Still,I'm glad they treat IU so well since I doubt she'll ever come to my country. All of the chinese Uaenas must have worked so hard to show their love for IU. I'm really glad that IU will be receiving all that love tbh.
  10. I tried again and apparently I needed to sign up. It works now though. Thanks again . I really wanted to watch it since I miss seeing her on variety shows.
  11. I don't think it's works. I guess the episode got deleted . Thanks though . No shade policy then? So you all just randomly shade? I love seeing all of your shades though.
  12. Hi,I just wanted to ask if any one has a link that works for the IU-Suzy Go Show episode? I tried one of the dailymotion links and it seems to be deleted or removed and I couldn't find any other links. Also a bit curious about this- what is the shade policy here exactly? something like anything works?
  13. Yes,I knew it.Please be close friends with him,IU. This makes me so happy.Kang Ha Neul seems like such a nice guy,no wonder IU seems comfortable with him. Although I would have expected her manager to be the one holding the umbrella. I hope they all take a pic together and post it.Uaenas are so happy these days
  14. Haha,I love YSH but I kinda gave up on that ship but since quite a few of your 'predictions' came true,you never know. I still low key want her to work with him and/or Lee Hyun Woo though.
  15. I saw the cosmopolitan gif and I'm sorry,Yoo Seung Ho who? I loved his interactions with IU before but Kang Ha Neul is stealing my heart.He's so cute hiding behind IU,I'm hoping he'll be one of her close actor friends. Jisoo too if possible since Yoo Seung Ho and IU haven't interacted in ages...
  16. Hi! I'm a lurker who decided to stop by today.I just wanted to say that I'm in awe of all of you for keeping this thread going.I'm actually going through the thread from the beginning since I missed IU and I'm amazed at how many pages it is currently since it was moving kinda slow in the beginning. Also I kinda love how you all go off topic and throw shade like nobody's business. I would love to post but seeing how cool you all are,I get kinda intimidated. I feel like a nerd looking at all the cool kids.Also I'm still a student so most of the time the only thing I can manage to do is keep up with IU's latest news and I kinda suck at forums. tbh As I was going through the thread,I wondered if some of you are psychic because I saw Blue predicting that IU would release a self composed album and a couple of you talking about IU acting with KSH again which all happened. Anyway,I'll probably go back to lurking after this but I just wanted to say that I really admire all of you.I'll always be glad that I decided to join the UAENA fandom. My most favourite IU friendship besides IU-In Na.I can't wait to see more of her friendship with the Scarlet Heart cast. Keeping my fingers crossed that the drama will do well both in ratings and reception. Also lowkey hoping for a Baekhyun-IU ost or even just an IU ost. Bye,seniors.I'll be mentally supporting you all along with my love,Lee Jieun.
  17. Wow,much better than the first costume but I hope that they have even better costumes. I love Jisoo the most honestly(Can we call their ship,EunSoo/SooEun? since both their names start with Ji) especially since he is also a 93 liner. I remeber thinking months ago how I wanted IU to act with Jisoo at some point and then Bu Bu Jing Xin happened. Although it would have been better if he was a lead,part of my wish was granted. Either way I can't wait for the drama so I can see tons of IU with handsome guys. P.S-How many ep is the drama actually? I saw articles saying 20 or 35 but which is true?
  18. Wow. She looks so gorgeous. I can't wait for september to come. Now,I want to see Jisoo's and Kang Ha Neul's costumes too.
  19. video of IU being adorable as usual! Also who has the power to delete all those positive comments and why would they even stoop to that?
  20. Hi,newbie here. I just wanted to say how much I love everyone in this thread for constantly updating news on IU. Finally decided to create an account just so I coud let you all know how much I appreciate it. You all rock!!!!
