Her schedule is already set, meaning they cant delay anything. She was yet to record the rest of the songs in her upcoming mini album. She's incredible. Also because we know she doesnt want to burden anyone (aka changing schedule) so she chose to power through. I love her 😭

December was a busy month for her, she's filming the final phase of her upcoming drama, shooting commercials, preparing her album + concert, shooting MVs, recordings. Her 24 hours is like a week of a normal person 😅

Her professionalism is really incredible. I just remember when she told her audience in her Day-2 concert of the Golden Hour. Before she sing the My Sea that she feels terrible in her ears (she had patulous eustachian tube dysfunction like she cant hear well and hear her own voice loudly) before the end of day 1 con because of the hot weather. We thought her ears is already ok. But i guess the weather trigger it. And she still in pain in day 2. And its almost 3 hrs past already when she told that. Imagine how professional she is that no one notice she suffering with her ear problem while shes performing on the stage. And then belting many songs with high notes like good day in that state. Then my sea with another high note again. While Feeling the pain and maybe cant hear well too that time. But she did it flawlessly and people cheered that time. Mad respect to this girl 👏👏👏.

Despite her compromised condition, I think it contributed to the emotional delivery of the song and video. I felt her tiredness and felt it was appropriate for the 2 characters who were on the edge of existence. She put her heart and soul into it!

I think the sickness really helped convey the feeling of the songs, desperateness, sad, and even hope through adversity... It's really crazy... This song is immensely sad...

she was filming her drama at the same time and still had to record the rest of the EP before going to the us to film the mv at the start of january... so yeah, she had a REALLY tight schedule oooof

Why is IU single released on 01/24 0124 in old pager cods means "i love you forever/eternally" 01: (영원...히: Forever) 2: (이...이긴다: Wins) 4: (사...사랑이: Love) in IU language 0124= love wins forever (영원히 이긴다 사랑이)

I agree that more you find out about IU, you just love her even more and there are a lot more you need to know about her since she was voted by Time magazine the most charitable public figure in her age group in the world.

Katriinka!! You did it again. as usual your reactions and your vocal analyses keep me on the edge of my seat they're so good!! it makes me want to go back to having vocal lessons, cause i want to test out everything you're talking about hahaha I find IU's songs SOOOO difficult to sing, even though I'm a soprano and it has to do with her perfect placement and breath control since her songs are all very breathy. She's insane!!!! And what you said in the end, well yes! I don't think I can love her any more than i already do, and then she does something else and the feeling just keep on growing. She truly is a precious bead, a gift to us all

I think part of the reason for the rush to finish the MV was because V only had 1 week left before entering the military. The director's schedule was also packed. I imagine it would have been a nightmare to re-assemble everyone involved if she postponed the shoot. IU rocks!

She mentioned in the MV behind the scenes that she had put off the recording twice at that point because she was sick. I guess she just ran out of time and had to do it no matter what.

I really like your work, you evaluate the singer so correctly. IU was in a hurry to record this video and song, as her mini album is due to be released on February 20. And this is important for the album. Thank you again.

Iu is just a very workaholic woman. Her schedule always tight tbh. But as Uaena ofc I'm happy getting content. Also she love to put meaning on numbers, so her album released date have special meaning

These recording video reactions are some of my favorites from Kat ❤️❤️❤️. Such a great teacher and coach!

In addition to everything you mentioned, I’m impressed at the authority IU has over the recording process. Most other groups are driven by the studio engineer but she’s built up so much experience and knows her own ability that she drives. Love to see it.

IU is truly an amazing artist 🥰💜

Thank you for the explanations, I enjoyed learning on how she sings and the technical aspect, I can never explain it or even fully understand lol

Really enjoyed your insight. IU has a very tight schedule with music and acting and preparing for her world tour this year. It's pretty much back to back. I really want to see her in july 🥲

She has a drama, album, and upcoming concerts. Everything is laid out and cant be delayed. On top of that she has CF and events she needs to attend to. She is just so professional and indeed incredible human being.

IU has been an artist for 16 years, and when she was interviewed for this album, she was able to confidently say, "I won the battle with myself every day," meaning that she is where she is today because she has overcome her circumstances and situations over the years. She said that it would have been best if she could have had a leisurely schedule with plenty of rest, but she had to fit in with the schedule of the M/V director and V, and above all, she didn't want to make her fans wait any longer. From a fan's perspective, I think the best thing to do is to respect her choice and recognize the hard work she put into this album.

I almost teared up when you said that IU was a blessing to her fans 🥺 she is indeed! I have never looked up to someone until I started being her fan. I've been watching your reactions for a long time now and I just realized that I wasn't subscribed. You just gained a new subscriber 💜 I hope everyone who wants to attend her concert will be able to secure their desired seats, including you! I really hope you attend at least one of her concerts. I'm pretty sure by just the way you react to her MVs, IU gained another UAENA 🥺🫶🏻

As a ueana, we also don't want to see she sing to harm herself, this song will be a legend. We love IU

always really enjoy your reaction, all your analysis abt IU's singing skill and vocal always so detail, i learned so much, thank you! and yes shes is insane! 🔥

She got sick during the mv recording. This was done right after that.

The director had to shoot super fast, (he opened a window in his schedule), and V was going to join the army in a week, so it seems like everything had to be finished before that. All these people had to thank IU a lot!

OMG! I can't waitttt.... 💜💜💜💜

Thank youu for ur reaction to iu ❤ i really enjoy 🎉

She almost always has a pretty packed schedule but I think in the mv she also said she had already rescheduled three times and really didn’t want to force them to reschedule again?

Love your reaction and we're learning a lot from you. Thank you ☺️❤️

As a UAENA this is so painful to watch😢😭

I just wanted to add that you look so healthy and shiny, love your eyes makeup too ❤ I'm happy to see you're doing good, and as always love your voice, its so relaxing to me.

Waited for. Thank you IU for coming again 💜💚💗

Really love this reaction, thank you 🤩

I love this girl so much. She is very professional. She is absolutely amazing. This album of IU's The Winning is absolutely the winners❤

They were rushing because she was filming a dorama at the same time, so they had to take advantage of the days off from filming that they had. Then to shoot again, and then go to LA to take the photos for the album. By the way, thank you very much for your reaction and explanations, I really enjoyed the video, I loved it 😍

Thanks for this video! I appreciate how a great artist IU is 😭 This is very educational. The techniques and every details! Wow! I am mindblown 🤯

Been waiting for your reaction for this.. thank you.. IU really worked hard for this album.. it breaks our heart watching it but we are proud of our bub 😍 she always takes pride of her work no matter how hard it is 😊

From what I can gather from all the behind the scenes: - V was to join the military the week after. He likely only had those 2 days to shoot the video. - The recording was done the day immediately after the second day of the mv shoot with V. (She got sick on the first day of the mv, this was 2 days after that) - As people have commented, this month was one of the busiest ever for IU. Likely she had not a single other day she had the possibility to do the recording, without completely messing up the schedule for either her mini album or the drama she was acting in.

On her channel, there's a behind the scenes for the MV.

Thank you for your pointers for this. I’ve already watched all the behind the scenes since the MV, so I find your comments interesting! IU is also a producer for this song, so she had a lot of say during this recording and how she wanted to hear it being sung. She was incredible to push through like this with her extremely busy schedule having caught the flu during the making of the MV and need to get the song released on time. What a fighter! She’s funny, sincere, and very professional with a voice that makes you feel! I listen to her though I’m ARMy and watched the MV for V. I hope the 2 of them do a collab someday 🫶🏼💕

Wow yes 🎉🎉🎉

There are some incredible live singers in korea. Some of them are not well known outside korea. IU is a legend in korea but her style is not that popular in west. I love her voice especially the way she emotes through her songs. Another one I was blown away by was Lee Seung gi . I always thought he was an actor but he is an incredible live singer. then I came to know that Lee Seung gi is incredibly popular in Korea and is known for his live singing.

I love Queen IU so much and I love how you comment on her, and because of that...I subscribed🥰

I've been waiting for this reaction. Finalyyyyy

So true. I am in complete awe of her talent, work ethic, and being a one woman show. She’s such a BOSS.

Yess... Finally....🎉❤❤

IU foi muito guerreira de gravar uma músic doente! Eu a admiro tanto 👏🏼💜

The end result was very lovely. I would never have guessed she was sick. Same with Holssi. Both great songs ♥♥

Apart from all that I just want to give her a big hug every time I see her videos :) a petite little angel

배우와 가수를 병행하는 아이유는 진짜 너무 바쁘고 힘든 일정 속에서 완벽하게 이루어내고 있다ㅠ 좋은 리뷰 잘 보고 갑니다💜

Yes yes yes...!!!!!! I commended dis video on ur last reaction,yaaaaayyyyy!!!!!! So glad ur gonna do dis....tnx....!!!!

She has a world tour

I was actually planning on performing this at a function, and even though I only watched this as something to pass my time with, I learnt so much and honestly I feel the improvements really hit hard.

Loved this vid. You just earned a new subscriber :)

That's such a beautiful song. I can't believe she was sick while recording it. She sounded so beautiful. The music video was beautiful, too.

Thank you, it was a good review 고마워요 좋은 리뷰였어요

1:19 i haven't yet watch the rest of your reaction, but already the beginning is absolutely on the oposite of smth that other "vocal coach" said. He was so condescending, basically calling her unprofessional just in other words, that dhe doesn't know how to take care of her voice that she didn't warm up etc, like i couldn't finish the video. And from you start of the video i see that you understand what it takes for artist at her level

Sidebar: you are glowing in this video!!! So beautiful 😍

Hi and thanks for sharing your knowledge, I wonder, this song seems like a building up of drama so the music and voice are ascending. So am I correct supposing the more the recording goes on the harder it is? Unless they are recording in a different order than the actual song.

even though she was sick, she still sounded so angelic

Love IU so much. Have you seen her acting in My Mister? You will bawl your eyeballs out. Impeccable acting.

This song makes me teary. IU is just a beautiful and so professional. I love her too,

I was very lucky to be able to watch her sing live on the HEREH tour in Jakarta last April. Her voice was amazing. And when she sang this song, I was crying while holding my lightstick. I love her so much ♥️♥️♥️

Thanks for your reaction to this wonderful soloist. IU is a truly special person in the KPOP world. BTW, I used to remember when you were doing reactions to Dimash..lol, which was a while ago.

Yeah right, in between concert she or after concert she not talking at all, she saving her voice hahaha she’s amazing singer❤

IU를 사랑하고 또존경합니다.잘보고갑니다.감사합니다❤

IU is just amazing... and yeah... my heart breaks for her to be working while sick....

wah! this is a struggle to watch! but I also worked in a production whereas we needed recordings, and all schedules are already set and under-pressure. our talent wasn't necessarily sick, but mostly their voices are a little hoarse due to continuous rehearsals and other media schedules. it's hard but we know that we can't have any more delays or everything will fall-apart!

Throw back to my high school choir teachers who told me it was a good lung-strenghening exercise to sing while being sick...

번역이 될 지 모르겠네요.. 한국말은 감정 공감 마음등 보이는 것보단 느끼는 표현이 많습니다. 정해진 기교나 발성 호흡 가사만으로 음악을 전달하기엔 한국사람들은 노래를 잘 하는 사람이 너무 많아요 ^^ 아이유는 독보적인 가사 전달력이 있는 아티스트입니다. 그래서 좋아하구요~♥

Can you please react the cover version of this song, which cover by Doh Kyung Soo? Actually it's not a cover but live duet between Doh KyungSoo and IU in her Pallete talkshow 1:39

I can’t wait to hear this song in concert ❤ I just know am gonna cry like a baby 😊😩😭😭😭💕

Are you going to see her on tour???!!

A primeira vez que escutei essa música eu senti exatamente isso: dor, compromisso, exaustão... Tadinha da bonequinha! ❤

This song has to be one of the most difficult song I tried learning because of the breathiness. The amount of control this song needs is insane

I can honestly say that I am very proud and amazed of IU. Why? Because you can can see and hear that she is sick. She continued for us, the fans. To give her best even though in her condition. Thank you so much, UI! ❤❤❤

I feel like I'm listening to a sport commentary and IU is the incredible athlete!

Love Wins All randomly played on my Spotify playlist and when she got to the chorus, tears fell from my eyes without me even realising. I was going through a rough patch and studying abroad, far from my family and friends back home, added to the whole loneliness. But knowing that even IU had to go through heaps of obstacles to get a recording done to perfection, it gave me reassurances that I have to push myself.

You need react to ep 100 Lee Mujin Service, it sooooooo beautiful!!!!! My favorite episode. I fell in love with Lily again

❤❤❤

I understand the “try not to do a full cough” bc that’s also super damaging

I heard she was busy at that time and sick ... she worked hard, kudos 👏

i never get how she does that like 70% air 30% tone but she's so good at it!!! her breath is always so stable and her transition from airy to more vocalized notes are so seamless. even when she's sick she sounds so good 😖

You are a good reactor, so I decide to subscribe and put like. What if a girl group? Can I make a request?.. please make a reactions to a Filipino girl group 4TH IMPACT sings NEVER ENOUGH.

Hello! Can you also do a reaction video to Lee Mujin Service ep 100. It's a special episode and the guests are Minnie, Lily, and Bang Yedam. They're so good!

❤❤❤❤😊😊😊

I'm really surprised. It's mind-blowing how she's able to hit those notes while sick! It's crazy! Like you said, it's difficult to hit some of those notes while healthy but she's recorded this song when sick.

Ur voice tho😩❤

IU so amazing.

ella siempre fuerza demasiado su voz, espero que no se lastime

this is why i've always had more respect to IU as a vocalist than any other idol. i'm not even a fan, tbh, but its impossible for her not to amaze you. if you listen to this and say she's just okay singer, you're lying. IU also is confident in her voice which i think is her greatest advantage.

When IU sings " 산산히 나를 더 망쳐 ruiner, 너와 슬퍼지고 싶어 my lover" by the end of the song, I love how her voice crack worked in her favour. It made it sound more sad than sick.

Hi. I do hope you could also react to D.O.s version of this song on IUs palette. Lookinh forward to it.

Does being sick like this actually help with the texture of the sound?

"I miss your reactions to iu I hope you have more reactions for IU's other live concert performances."

She hits that triple high note in one of her concerts. I think I seen it In her 10 year anniversary concert. I'm a newbie to IU, but I'm sure the Uaenas will let you know.😁

In her MV bts she said she had actually delayed it like 3 times so like woah she's tough for this

I think one of the reasons they were in such a rush because V had to start his military service in the mid December and they needed to shoot the MV before it😅. It’s unbelievable for me how she could sing so beautifully in her condition 🥹. Amazing artist ❤️can’t wait for her tour and hope I’ll be lucky enough to get a ticket😅

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I learn some techniques how to sing properly 😍
