On the last night of THE GOLDEN HOUR concert in Seoul, popular singer IU announced that she had sought treatment for her hearing problem. At the two-day solo concert, the 29-year-old vocalist gave the audience special performances. Her statement at the end of the event surprised many people because singer LILAC hit a high note right before her announcement.
Fans expressed their love and support for singer LILAC. They also applauded her for having the courage to speak openly about her own problems in the ZLATNI SAT play. Following her announcement, Twitter was flooded with messages of encouragement for her. No matter how epic THE GOLDEN HOUR concert was, IU admitted that he was “extremely nervous” while preparing for it. The soloist’s recording includes songs with a hint of dance, allowing the focus to be on her vocals.
“It’s Scary To Watch”: IU’s THE GOLDEN HOUR will be remembered as a breathtaking yet melancholy concert.
On September 17 and 18, 2022, IU, also known as the Queen of K-pop, completed her two-day solo offline concert at the Seoul Olympic Stadium. She delivered incredible performances, with breathtaking costumes, epic stages, hot air balloons, drone shows and more. IU was diagnosed with Eustachian tube dysfunction, a condition that allows people to hear their own voice. According to Verywell Health, this is an uncommon disease, affecting only one in 10,000 people.
This condition can be compared to a blocked ear. There is no single reason for this. Risk factors include rapid and significant weight loss, anxiety and stress, jaw problems, and fatigue. According to Hankyoreh, the singer shared her problems with fans after playing Love Poem. She added that it got a little worse on the second day and that preparing for the show became more difficult for her.
IU stated:
“I was really sick with my ear so I was scared and was getting ready for this performance.” It’s not life threatening, but I had trouble getting my lice under control about a year ago. My ears have gotten a bit worse since the end of the show yesterday, so I guess I had a slightly bad practice day last night and today.”
She continued, saying she couldn’t hear the audience well, but thanked them for their support:
I barely heard from you today, but I got the impression that they were supporting me and congratulating me on my 14th wedding anniversary.
UAENAs, IU fans, also noted that her documentary Pieces sheds light on the same issue. The documentary follows singer Palette to the clinic, giving fans an insight into her hearing condition. Naturally, fans have fallen in love with the actress, who has been the most successful and popular female solo artist in Korea for over a decade. The GOLDEN HOUR event was IU’s first offline concert in three years, and she went above and beyond to give her fans a great experience.
After IU shared about her health during THE GOLDEN HOUR performance, fans wished her a speedy recovery and encouraged her to take care of herself. Meanwhile, IU announced that she will no longer include Palette and Good Day in her concert repertoire, making THE GOLDEN HOUR the last time fans will hear the two songs live. About 85,000 people have experienced the singer’s magic, including several K-pop celebrities.
