*_This song has the happiest beat but the saddest lyrics._*

IU and suga Literally made a sad song with a happy music

4 years later and I still can't hear this song without crying, what a beautiful tribute to loved ones gone too soon

I don't see people mention this often so I'll mention it again. The lizard/ dragon is jonghyun and the girl who jumps from the hill is Sulli. They both fly in the direction opposite to the airplane in which IU is sitting. It means theyre now going in different paths. Sulli and jonghyun are going towards heaven and IU is continuing her life. The scene where they both look at each other one last time and IU gives them a teary smile, that scenes always breaks me 💔

i still can't believe that they collaborated...

“it's just a song, it won't hurt you” IU & Yoongi: Edit: Thank you for the likes, this is my most liked comment ever😁

The chorus says *“forever we young”* because they died at a young age and will never age and now this hit differently .... Stay Strong IU :(

the friendship between Sulli and IU was so beautiful, this sendoff for Sulli still breaks my heart

"Under the orange sun, We dance together without any shadow." It means you're dreaming.

This song is the definition of: "sad but make it slap."

IU is one of the finest artists of korea indeed. It's beautiful for her to dedicate a song for her friends. Showing her vulnerability and emotions makes her more of a brave person and of all a human with feeling. ❤❤❤

Who’s listening to this masterpiece in 2024?

SUGA: "It’s easier to write a song because you can intuitively make a progression and try many different things. During my work on ‘Eight’, IU had recorded and sent me a song from her phone. At the time I couldn’t play the guitar, so we tried to make sure we’re working on the same page when keeping track of each other's progress. That made me feel the need to learn an instrument."

Anyone remembers the time when Suga wanted to give a song to the MCs as a present on Weekly idol and he was rejected? Now he is producing his own song for the Nation‘s little sister and they’re slaying together!!

yoongi and jieun are one of the best duos

Man this song hits different after the BBC Burning Sun documentary 🙁🙁

8 ‘eight’ = “infinity” when you turn it sideways. This song is about forever. Those memories of those old days will stay forever.

I was literally crying while watching it again knowing that the lizard is her friend jonghyun and sulli is the girl in white dress.

I lost my friend two weeks ago. She passed away due to cancer. I miss her every second. When i can’t bear with this sort of emotions, i always listen musics that reminds me her in a happy memory. My beautiful girl, rest in piece wherever you are🧡🙏🏻

the last time i listened to this song, my mother was still with me. it hits different now that she's gone. this song gives me solace. i miss my mom.

Sulli said she never feel happy. And in the lyrics there is "Are you happy now?" omg I'm speechless. iu u are a best friends :(

I can tell that yoongi really loves this song. He kept playing and mentioning it when he has a chance.

IU + Suga = Arte

Kayanya baru kemarin lagu ini rilis, ternyata udah 4 tahun aja. Sehat-sehat orang-orang yang berhasil melewati masa sulit kemarin, forever young!

Fact: this two people is the strongest human i know.

IU: "There's no fixed parting see you in those beautiful memories forever young" Jonghyun and Sullie will be forever young, one has 8 in his birthday and the other has 8 years of friendship.

ジョンくんとソルリちゃんのこと考えながら聴くと凄く刺さって泣けてくる。

4 years with eight. forever young with IU and SUGA. s t r e a m eight s p to 300M everyone.

Suga did a great job producing , composing this, he is credited for the piano and they wrote this , iu beautiful singing and Suga captivating rap , i wouldnt mind if they collab again, its really beautiful

I think IU dedicate this song to her bestfriends Sulli, Hara and Jonghyun.

Yoongi, IU... Suga literally the best producer, rapper, person.

IU voice + Suga Rap 🔥

Everyone can realize that this is Suga’s song just by two words: Forever young

IU is nominated 6 times in MAMA and She is top 1 in three categories because the other three categories is in Bts Y'all BTS X IU power!!!

I came here to listen to happy upbeat music from IU after watching "Love Wins All" since she left me a mess. And then I find the meaning of this amazing song. GIRL!!! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME??!!! 😫🤧😭

I LOVE THIS SONG! THE LYRICS, SENTIMENTALITY, MV, YOONGI'S AND IU'S VOCALS - JUST BEAUTIFUL!

I am crying I want to hug her she had pain all these times, even her friends left her She still Hurt, I just want to support her and pray for her friends R. I. P

IU pressing the “record” at the start of the song represents the fact that she will always have their memories with her.

Here playing the masterpiece Suga made for IU. Suga and IU are best artists

this song is very special to me because it's a work of the two artists i highly respect and because this song came out on a day very meaningful to me, i remember how i called it "faith". it makes me feel nostalgia, warm feeling, hope for better days. i am so happy iu and yoongi joined forces and gave us this special special song 🌌♡

When the girl decided to jump off the cliff (the day Sulli decide to took her own life), the dragon (Jonghyun) is there picking her up so that’s she won’t be alone. IU, from the plane looking at her 2 bffs finally happy now. Thank you, IU-ssi

I read this somewhere: "eternity means sand castle" - a sand castle is so hard to build but crumbles down with just one touch, that's how fragile the concept of forever is.

What a masterpiece but sad😢 ~2024

We did it!! FINALLY 180 MILLION to this amazing collab between iu and yoongi !!!

*"Every moment is memorable to me."* *- Min Yoongi -*

at the last part , even when she’s smiling , her eyes tell a completely different story

OMG suga and IU's collaboration ❤~

Suga and IU voice is incredible

EIGHT is a song about letting someone u love go. the lyrics “i think i’ve lost everything” was followed with a scene where the sky is clearer and she saw jonghyun & sulli. iu smiled to show that she’s let them be free “there’s no depressing ending” to J & S we L O V E U

the way IU asks “so are you happy now?” Is literally the question every person in their twenties or late twenties asks themselves while looking back at their youth. It could also be your past self asking this question to your present self after everything you went through

I really proud of Yoongi coz he produced and composed iu's most streamed/hit song

I heard this first on IU's Palette.......their voices go so well together. "An island created by you and me" reminds me of V's MV, where he had an island, or at least a beach, created by him.

The way suga says his name before he starts rapping will always be iconic.

Who else hv been counting down to this historical moment of collab between iu & bts?

I liked the interview Suga gave IU. It gave a little more insight as to how this collaboration came about.

Cried a lot when she sang this on her world tour concert in Manila last June 1. Definitely a core memory. Thank you IU!

IU's stylist in this MV was Sulli's stylist, that's why you can see resemblance of IU and Sulli here...

IU: "SO ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?" SULLI: "FINALLY HAPPY NOW." Hope you like this song sulli from you bestfriend :*

IU IS UNIQUE. WITH SUGA IT WAS THE PERFECT COMBINATION

another absolute banger from IU honestly

The fact that IU's friendship with sulli was 8 years and jonghyun's birthday is on 8. Wow, IU is a good friend, she wrote a song for her friends I miss them so much 😕

No one’s talking about IU and BTS’s partnership... I can’t believe it, but song is just amazing

Vine después de la entrevista que le hizo Suga y me quedé impactada del trabajo que han hecho los dos en esta canción, que fuerte el mensaje🥹! Me encantó la producción y la canción 🫰💜👏

Una de las mejores colaboraciones, desde el mv y la canción son tremendas. La voz de Yoongi e IU se complementan tan bien. Los amo!! (Extrañando a Yoongi…)

The whole mv is a story about let someone go. And not just that, this is about IU let her best buddies go. The storm in airplane it's showing that IU hold pain on her chest as the lyrics said "I think i've lost everything". But then, she knows that she must walk forward, that's why the storm gones and IU in the airplane smiles at the girl with flying dragon, that's mean she already let them (Jonghyun & Sulli) free, IU not regret what she choose and she choose to remember them by memories just like what the lyrics said, "i travel through worn-out memories". This song and the mv is so cool. She told us to let someone who not with us anymore, let them go so they can be happy. Although they not say goodbye, you must let them go. "There's no depressing ending" means Jonghyun and Sulli finally can live happy without pain anymore.

Who's here for both IU and SUGA?? I hope this gets featured as a track for a film or series :')

2024년도에 듣는 인간은 조용히 조아요를 누르십시오

노래가 나올 당시에는 몰랐는데 힘들 때 들으니까 가사 하나하나 다 무슨 뜻인지 알 것 같다...

Namjoon was right, this is a song you want to listen to while driving.

When you realize the song is about someone losing someone. It hits on a different level as you listen again.

2026년 에도 들을 사람손

1度聞いてからもう毎日聞いてる。2年以上経ってるのかも、この曲を聴くと心が癒される。

IU sees Sulli in the sky flying freely where “ electronic devices are turned off “ in other words away from malicious comments and the dangers of online networking. The details in this MV are breathtaking. Thank you musical genius IU

"I don't want to love anyone again" I can feel it. She doesn't wants to make anything more important in her life anymore . I think the wound she's got is just like a scar. I can't be removed...

She is so talented. Beautiful soul, wonderful sensitivity. It hurts. Unfortunately, such pain is also beautiful.

들을 때마다 2019년 4월, 2023년 11월이 떠올라요. 작은외삼촌, 외할아버지를 떠나보냈던 년, 월이었어요. 진짜 몽중, 아름다웠던 기억에서 만날 수 있기를 원하게 만들어주는 곡이죠. 윤기의 '작별은 마치 재난문자 같지.'에서 작년 외할아버지의 사망 소식을 듣고 충격에 빠진 엄마가 생각나네요. 정말 꿈에서 두 분을 재회할 수 있었으면 좋겠어요.

The house represents Sulli's world, since only in her house she really felt safe and happy. Remember how Sulli would always be in her house with her friends away from the public eye and i believe this video is Sulli itself , her clothing , her wavy perm hair style , her laying on the floor where Sulli would ALWAYS take pictures with friends and post them. I mean this is IU's goodbye to Sulli and how she remembers her happy and always smiling bright.

MV : perfect Visual : perfect Song : perfect IU : perfect Suga : perfect Hotel? : del luna This is mv is literally flawless and so beautiful . A truly masterpiece

siapa yang kesini karna suchwita hari ini SUGA×IU 😂💜💜

So are you happy now? Finally happy now? Yeah 뭐 그대로야 난 다 잃어버린 것 같아 모든 게 맘대로 왔다가 인사도 없이 떠나 이대로는 무엇도 사랑하고 싶지 않아 다 해질 대로 해져버린 기억 속을 여행해 우리는 오렌지 태양 아래 그림자 없이 함께 춤을 춰 정해진 이별 따위는 없어 아름다웠던 그 기억에서 만나 Forever young 우우우 우우우우 우우우 우우우우 Forever we young 우우우 우우우우 이런 악몽이라면 영영 깨지 않을게 (SUGA) 섬, 그래 여긴 섬, 서로가 만든 작은 섬 예, 음 forever young 영원이란 말은 모래성 작별은 마치 재난문자 같지 그리움과 같이 맞이하는 아침 서로가 이 영겁을 지나 꼭 이 섬에서 다시 만나 지나듯 날 위로하던 누구의 말대로 고작 한 뼘짜리 추억을 잊는 게 참 쉽지 않아 시간이 지나도 여전히 날 붙드는 그 곳에 우리는 오렌지 태양 아래 그림자 없이 함께 춤을 춰 정해진 안녕 따위는 없어 아름다웠던 그 기억에서 만나 (forever young) 우리는 서로를 베고 누워 슬프지 않은 이야기를 나눠 우울한 결말 따위는 없어 난 영원히 널 이 기억에서 만나 Forever young 우우우 우우우우 우우우 우우우우 Forever we young 우우우 우우우우 이런 악몽이라면 영영 깨지 않을게

In the song, he was talking about his deceased friends Hara, Jonghyun and Sulli when he said 'Forever young' and 'Let's meet in memories'. They committed suicide because of the hate they received "Are you happy now?" promise comes from here. There was a dragon and a girl riding on the clip. That dragon was Jonghyun and the girl was Sulli. There is also a computer with orange screen in the song, "Do you want to see the memories?" and IU clicks where it says 'yes'. People should learn urgently what their words can lead to results. Rest in peace Jonghyun, Sulli and Hara Title of the song: 8 Jonghyun's d. day: April 8 Sulli and iu's friendship: 8 years The dragon in the clip: jonghyun The girl in a white dress in the clip: sulli Clip: "Do you want to see the memories?" 8 = infinity ... BONUS: Sulli: I've never been happy. IU: Are you happy now?

"Everything comes and goes as they wish, even without a goodbye If this is how things are, I don't want to love anyone again" This hurts so bad 0:48

The first part of the song........ how much pain can hide under the beauty ??

14 oct is to remember the day Sulli left..IU wrote this song for Sulli even though it has been 4 years since she still lives in the memory

This song it's not just IU and it's not just Suga, it's two different personalities that came together to make such a masterpiece and gift for their fans so, please support both of them. If not, Just leave honey. We don't want toxic people here.

the fact that this song was abt her friends in heaven and how she will never forget them

'Eight' is a quite melancholic song, I don't usually listen to it so much because of the nostalgic feeling that it somehow causes in me but I love this song. It's so much perfection, art.

this song is so beautiful ❤ im so sorry about moonbin, sulli and jonghyun. ❤❤ remember us fans are always here for you! ❤

yoongi does truly never disappoint with his music.. he’s so good at producing lol i’m really proud of him,, it’s an amazing song and iu sang it beautifully

This song is like a depression, you might look ok and happy outside but deep inside you are not. Same goes with the rhythym, it is upbeat you'll notice dancing along with ut but when you try to understand the lyrics, it is very deep.

Yoongi is a true and real rapper unlike some kpop rappers that don’t even know rapping

2024년에도 듣는사람 ✋️

Still hoping IU and SUGA would perform this live someday.

My theory is that IU would rather sleep and dream about her friends who left without saying Goodbye and asking them if they are happy in the place they are now. Through her dream she's telling them also to meet again at the island they made together as friends. Lastly as said in the song She'll remember those memories with them without a depressing ending.

It's 2.36 I'm crying.... didn't know where to go..so I'm here with my comfort song

i am here again after watching suchwita with iu

*if Iu and Suga perform this in public i promise the arena will be full*

I was crying, knowing all the friends lost, but through us they live on.

This song feels so relaxing and exciting

مر على الاغنية اربع سنين....... أتذكر آيو كتبت أغنيتها لأصدقائها المتوفيين جنت بس اسمعها بدون ما افهم مشاعرها وقصتها حسيت بيها من توفت صديقتي همين...
