[NEWS] IU's solo concert, rather than showing how much she improved, making everyone anticipate about her future

"Out of all the 20 year old solo female singer's concerts in Korea, how many of them will be able to hold a concert this successful?"

On the 3rd at the Peace Hall in Kyunghee Unviserity, IU held her first nation-wide solo concert.

From IU's amazing vocals and a fairytale-like stage to the large orchestra and band and their splendid performance. Although it seemed like the echos from the music were fighting with IU's singing, it did not negatively affect the overall performance.

'Cruel Fairytale', 'You and I', 'Peach', 'Nagging', 'Every End of the Day', 'Marshmallow' and other various hit songs got a lot of cheers from the male fans and all the fans were on the edge of their seats when watching IU dance to Black Eyed Pea's 'Boom Boom Pow', Rain's 'Rainism' and Hyuna and Jang Hyunseung's 'Trouble Maker'.

Even though it was IU's first solo concert, she was able to control her audience well. Through her witty comments and variety of expressions, she was able to give off the impression of a older sister, little sister, and a daughter all at once. Although on stage there was only 1 IU, the emotions that each audience member felt were all different.

IU was very considerate of everyone who was there. She considered how the male fans would feel, she frequently gave little speeches that were aimed towards the female fans, and she paid close attention to the people who were sitting on the 2nd and 3rd floor since they would have a hard time looking at her. Although there were a lot of young fans, she sang couple of old songs in order to please the older fans who were also present. Going a step further, she even thought about the fans that weren't able to attend her concert by creating a phone call event.

In most concerts, time to time singers use different facial expression to take over the concert arena, however instead of using this technique, IU created a comfortable and emotional atmosphere in the concert arena.

Most of all, instead of showing the difference between the past and the present IU through her songs and dance, IU showed how much more she could improve in the future. Although 2AM and Lee Seunggi did perform as guests, IU was able to make people throw away their worries of how a 20 year old singer could lead a concert by herself.

Starting in Seoul, after her 6 city tour ends, we wonder how mature she would become when she gets back on stage.
