practice



이지은
Phew..

???
Ji-eun! You did really well.

???
I think I could do with just a little bit of dance practice


이지은
thank you!

???
Then shall we go record?


이지은
yes

???
Ji-eun, what's the name of the song?


이지은
It's a 'magic shop'

(BTS does not appear)

???
It's a magic shop... isn't it great?

???
Then shall we give it a try?


이지은
"I know you're hesitating, but even if I tell you the truth, it all comes back to me as scars."


이지은
"I won't tell you the obvious things like, 'Cheer up,' I'll tell you my story. I'll tell you my story."

???
The lyrics are so good?

???
Let's try the back


이지은
yes


이지은
"I want to take away your sadness and pain. The days when I hate being me, the days when I want to disappear forever."


이지은
"Let's create a door in your heart. Open it and enter. This place awaits you."


이지은
"It's okay to believe, the Magic Shop will comfort you"

After the recording is finished

D-day

The debut date has arrived

Ji Eun-in debuted as IU and became a hot solo singer.

???
Hello IU!!


아이유
Yes! Hello

???
Today, you just need to answer questions about IU.

???
Are you ready?


아이유
yes!

???
First, a question.

???
Your debut song is called "Magic Shop"

???
I was asked, "I want to know what this song is about."


아이유
I've never been asked this question before, but today I'm going to answer your question.


아이유
This song speaks to students who are being bullied.


아이유
"Let's create a door in your heart. Open it and enter. This place awaits you. Trust me, it's okay. The Magic Shop will comfort you."


아이유
In these lyrics, the people who are being bullied are going to the magic shop


아이유
Wow.. it's a pretty and nice place and let me tell you about the light.. haha

???
Hmm... there was such a nice place

???
I want to go there too

Last question turn

???
Last question.

???
The name is IU. I want to know why it's called IYoon.


아이유
If you translate this into Korean, it would be "me, you", "me and you are the same", "we all did well", etc. I wanted to be a non-discriminatory person, so I chose IU.

This is a made-up story, not a true one.

???
IU is really pretty

???
Ah... unfortunately, this is the last one.

???
Bye then~


아이유
Hello~

There are so many people who like me.

It's so good...

but..

When I go to school...

Will it be right again?

I... hate school.

Should I tell you that I'm IU?

If I say IU...

The kids think I'm a celebrity and not Lee Ji-eun..

I think it will work out well.

but...

They could threaten you by saying they are friends with a celebrity...

I won't... say...

Do the kids like me... no, IU?
