K-Pop Queen IU Serenades Muang Thong Thani in the Awaited Bangkok Concert — Surprises Cover of Popular Thai Song

Vocal Queen IU, top K-POP solo female artist, brings all her hit songs to the “2024 IU HEREH WORLD TOUR CONCERT IN BANGKOK” on 29 – 30 June at Impact Challenger Hall 1, Muang Thong Thani.

The stage opened with the songs “Holssi” and “Jam Jam“. After her impressive performances, IU greeted her fans, whom she hadn’t seen in over 5 years. She said in Thai, “Hi, BANGAENA! I miss you so much, how are you? I haven’t been here for a long time, but everyone still comes to support and cheer me up. Thank you. Five years ago, I came to Bangkok during the Christmas period. At that time, I was very happy, but today we will create a new historic together.” Fans’ hearts fluttered as IU practiced Thai throughout the concert. IU’s mother also prepared a special gift to distribute to every seating zone. This kind of sweetness made all the fans love her a million times more.

The atmosphere of the concert elevated as both artist and fans didn’t miss the chance to sing the lyrics of “Ah puh“, “BBIBBI“, “Obliviate“, and “Celebrity“. The chant loudly filled the hall with the song “Blueming“, which IU sang again with fans after 5 years, followed by the hit songs “eight“, “I stan U“, “Coin“, “Havana“, and “Meaning of You“.

Screams immediately arose when the melody of a very familiar song was heard. It turned out that IU had prepared a cover of a popular Thai song “First Love” (original song by Nont Tanont) to surprise her beloved fans. As soon as the song ended, fans gave a loud applause as they were very impressed with her cover. Continuing the slow mood of the concert, “Through the Night” was performed before changing the mood to the fun rhythm with songs that awakened the energy of fans, making them sway along with “Shopper“, “Above the Time“, and “YOU&I“. The concert closed with the slow song “Love Wins All,” in which IU encouraged everyone to have good love and give love to each other.

But at that time, BANGAENA did not let the concert end easily, they shouted her name passionately until she return to the stage for the encore. The singer came back to the stage, performing “Shh..“, “Twenty-three“, and “Holssi”. Just giving happiness through music wasn’t enough; IU also doubled her cuteness to make Thai fans smile and even happier. She brought ‘Tae Bangi‘ (an elephant doll wearing a northern hat) that Thai fans had given her, bringing it back again. IU also performed random songs according to fans’ wishes, gifting them with performances of “Drama,” “LILAC“, “Friday“, “Palette“, “Someday” before saying goodbye to the fans to conclude the concert.

It can be said that over the past 5 years, both artist and fans have collected precious memories together. When they had the opportunity to meet each other, they expressed their feelings fully, making this concert end perfectly.
