IU LOVE, POEM IN MANILA

South Korea’s Best-Selling Female Solo Artist, Certified Hit Chart-Topper, Best Actress, and Nation’s
Sweetheart, IU is set to bless the Philippines with a best day as she embarks for her solo concert
tour in the country!
Filipino Uaenas, the time has finally come for us to meet IU! In a night full of enchantment and love
presented by PULP Live World, prepare to meet IU at the 2019 IU TOUR CONCERT <LOVE,
POEM> IN MANILA. The show takes place on December 13, 2019, Friday, 7 PM at the Araneta
Coliseum.
Debuted in 2008 at the age of 15, IU definitely gained over-flowing experiences from her first-ever
musical stint up to the popularity she is being poured with now. Known to all, her career was not an
overnight success. She debuted with her first album Lost and Found. Although it was liked by her
fans, it was only until the release of her follow-up albums Growing Up and IU…IM that she gained
mainstream popularity. From then, the crowd’s attraction to her significantly grew. Her following
song “Marshmallow” was a smashing track in South Korea immediately after its release, and soon
after, through her song “Good Day” that she achieved the golden national stardom. From then on, IU
has soared high and retained her dominance in music charts with a certified chart all-kill tracks.
Throughout the 11 years of her career, IU has successfully released four studio albums and nine
extended plays which includes three number-one albums and twenty number-one single or chart-
toppers on the Gaon Music Charts. IU has also been known for writing and producing her own songs
and is also considered as a musical genius by most of her fans. Her self-written three latest albums
which are A Flower Bookmark (2014), Chat-Shire (2015), and Palette (2017), depicted a more
matured vibe as she intentionally deviates from the typical K-Pop style of music.
Aside from music career, IU has also taken the spotlight in hosting, radio, film, and TV dramas. She
starred in various Korean Drama series such as “Dream High”, “My Mister”, “Scarlet Heart Ryeo”
and the recently concluded TvN’s highest-rated drama “Hotel Del Luna”. She has also been given the
Top Excellence Awardee at the 2018 APAN Star Awards for her exceptional portrayal for her role in
the drama “My Mister”.
IU is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Since her debut, IU gained over 190 nominations and
won approximately 70 of them. These include five Daesang, the Grand Prize Awards, from various
award shows while at the same time, consistently topping all music charts. With this immense
recognition, she has been recognized by Billboard as the all-time leader of its Korea K-Pop Hot 100
chart with the most number-one songs. This year, she is set to earn more recognition from both
fans and award-giving bodies as she gears up to release a comeback mini-album titled “Love, Poem”.
Returning to the grand stage with her new concert tour, IU hopes to take her fans to a magical
celebration of her career while at the same time, create a new chapter that marks her 11 th
anniversary as an artist.
This December, profess your love for IU as she lands to the Philippines to finally meet and serenade
her beloved Filipino Uaenas. This is a show that you have all been dreaming of so be present as we
all witness the grandeur of IU. 2019 IU TOUR CONCERT <LOVE, POEM> IN MANILA happens on
