iu is both endearing and cute. The nation’s sister can even tulis her own songs! I’m not even ashamed to admit that I’m a fan of her as a vocalist.
She has secured a large male fan base, and has also picked up a lot of support from female fans. iu has managed to come out unscathed from a scandal, and is now one of the puncak, atas stars when it comes to marketing and advertisements.
Even though a name is common, anda might not know how populer an artist really is until anda directly dig into it. When we looked into IU, her popularity turned out to be a lot greater than we expected.

Royalties higher than “Cherry blossom Ending”
iu didn’t necessarily have what anda would call a strong start to her career. Her debut judul track “Lost Child (MIA)” debuted at number 60 on the charts, and never rose higher than 54. However, in just a few years, iu is now an artist whose releases are now expected to land at number 1.

We researched IU‘s musik success through Korea’s biggest distributor, MelOn which oversees lebih than half of Korea’s 8 musik charts. These days, staying within the puncak, atas 100 on the charts for a long time is lebih valuable than reaching number 1 for a short while. Her hit songs “Good Day” and “YOU&I” both stayed in the puncak, atas 100 on MelOn for 28 weeks.
Even lebih impressive, her self-composed track “Friday,” which was released in 2013, is still sitting in the puncak, atas 100 right now. Like a ikan salmon, salmon swimming back home, IU’s “Friday” has a way of finding its way back to the puncak, atas of the charts even after an entire year.

To really know how crazy this is anda have to realize that even the biggest hit song of 2010, “Gangnam Style” and one of the craziest hits recently “Some” lost to IU‘s songs’ persistence.
link
As of September 10th, 2015, including IU’s mega-hit “Friday,” there are 20 copyrighted songs that have been written, composed, and/or arranged oleh IU.
link
Particularly, IU’s lyrics are both realistic and promote a sense of wonder, while stimulating good feedback from listeners. Her lyrics are backed oleh down-to-earth expressions and distinctive figures of speech.
With words that won’t touch my hands
Do not make me wiggle
Even if I go out, there’s nothing much
– “Not Spring, Love, atau ceri, cherry Blossoms”
All day, my jantung rides on that clock hand
Getting closer to anda with each tick
– “Friday”
But honestly, don’t anda have a little responsibility
For making me so confused?
– “Voice Mail”

Acting? Variety? That’s easy.
There is rarely a group without an actor these days. With the exception of the group members with great vocal ability, everyone is trying to assert their presence in acting.
But iu is already bernyanyi and akting very well, and has also shown a lot of diligence. People used to get angry for casting IU, but eventually compliments began to pile up.

Let’s take a look at IU’s participation in other forms of entertainment. She was a long-time MC for SBS Inkigayo with populer stars such as Lee Jong Suk, and she showed off her personality through SBS’s variety shows Kim Yu Na’s ciuman & Cry and Heroes.
These moves turned out to pave an elite course that has led her to stardom.

– May 2011 – July 2011 / SBS Kim Yu Na’s ciuman & Cry contestant
– June 2010 – May 2011 /SBS heroes member
Concerts Ads Sell So Well
There aren’t many idols that could hold a national tour (and even less when it comes to a female solo act!), but iu has completed many successfully.

– November-December 2013 – iu Solo Concert, ‘Modern Times’ – Seoul, Busan

iu has also proven herself in her ability to help market goods.

My Chew was IU’s only endorsement in 2010, but five years later and anda can see her face at the bottom of soju glasses. Isn’t it amazing?

link
She has had many scandals, such as her being spotted with 2PM‘s Woo Young and her sensitive SNS scandal, but many of her fan consoled her and her fan even increased. This is because most of her fan cinta her for who she is and her music, not her surface.

Fandom’s As Solid As Concrete
iu fan are loyal and even myself felt touched at some of the episodes between her and her fans. Her fan trust her and this is probably why her fandom is so huge for a solo female artist.
IU’s fan in her fan cafe rival that of Girls’ Generation, which is unheard of for a solo artist.
link
To find out how populer she really is I researched what may be the most populer hashtags on Instagram. #InfiniteChallenge was 160,000, Kim Soo Hyun was 200,000, and Kim Woo Bin 120,000.
Last year, she was unrivaled in the amount of artikel that mentioned her.

Finally, note the number of followers she has on SNS such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

For fun I asked iu fan why they like iu and they said, “Do anda need a reason (Eeyoo) to like IU?”
link
This is it, iu has become a bintang that people need no reason to love.
Tickita match the rhythm and spin, the guitar~

Recently, Unionbay released a set of foto of the pair getting close and comfortable with each other while they modeled apparel from the casual clothing brand. The stars wore jeans of every shade and even a few bright colored shirts and jackets. The well known celebrity friends recommended each other for the modeling gig, and now they are both reaping the rewards.
iu and Hyun Woo even admitted that they would like to work together if a good project comes their way.
I don't know about you, but I'm wholeheartedly rooting for these two to date. They are adorable together! The young stars, who are both 21 years old, are already good friends, so cinta should naturally come next.
