IU expressed her feelings on the success of her latest album 'Palette'.

On the May 11th installment of 'Picnic Live', IU was featured in an interview with lyricist Kim Eana. Kim Eana asked her how she felt about the love she's receiving for her 4th album, and IU responded, "Of course, I'm really happy. I'm happy, but I'm also a very lonesome." The lyricist commented, "I think you get lonely when you succeed. You have to know how to enjoy it," giving advice to the fellow songwriter.

IU added, "I enjoy it when I do, and I try to. This time, I'm lonesome though."

Did you enjoy IU's 'Palette'?

She should have a dinner with GD for sure :)

To be so famous and in such a spotlight must be very tough. Money, success and having so many fans doesn't guarantee happiness. Hope she finds the things that will make her heart feel full.

Get a tamagochi, you can take it to all your appearances and performances and never be lonely.

Girl, how are you lonely when you have that FINE-ASS bodyguard????!!!

Her manager is pretty cute too

After Jang Kiha, homegirl’s craving for that dick. That’s why she’s feeling ’’lonely’’. And dumb delulu SoSo/Lee Junki-IU shippers’ dreams are already crushed because LJK is dating the beautiful goddess Jeon Hye Bin... :)

mocchimar1 Longan_Lychee • Thursday, May 11, 2017

So much salt lol and JHB isn't a natural goddess but OK.

Longan_Lychee mocchimar1 • Thursday, May 11, 2017

So what if she isn’t a natural goddess? You do realize that in a look-centred industry, a lot of female celebrities resort to aesthetic surgery and JHB isn’t the only one. That doesn’t make her any less goddess or beautiful lol

makan Longan_Lychee • Thursday, May 11, 2017

Everyone has their own favorites and JHB is both talented and beautiful. But come on... IU is.... well, IU... There's just something special about IU.

Longan_Lychee makan • Thursday, May 11, 2017

IU is a beauty too and the queen of writing and composing k-ballads, but SoSo shippers should give up on their hopes of IU and Junki becoming a couple..

mocchimar1 Longan_Lychee • Friday, May 12, 2017

Her saying she's lonely doesn't necessarily mean she's hungry for dick ok. And it's LJK' s loss if anything...I wish him nothing but happiness with that goddess but IU is in a league of her own

Don't worry even losers feel lonely it has nothing to do with success

IU should consider to 'get together' with SULLI and GOO HARA (KARA) ; who would probably welcome IU's company. And IU could 'circulate' with them and 'check out' some NEW 'Male Marriage Material' prospects. I do *not* see much 'problem' with IU being able to find MALES who are VERY INTERESTED in a possible personal relationship (dating) with IU.

lmao

Ineul_Ze krell • Thursday, May 11, 2017

Well, her and Sulli are already friends so I can see it happening - maybe not with Hara though.

krell Ineul_Ze • Thursday, May 11, 2017

Anyway, that IU is NOT able to find MALES who would wish to DATE her ; to me, is ABSURD. But 'going out' with some other 'female friends' in a Group, is common strategy. IF you meet up with a MALE who seems interesting ; good news. If NOT, you still enjoy the company of your FEMALE friends anyway.

kentv krell • Thursday, May 11, 2017

Sadly a lot of guys are likely intimidated by a successful woman, and some women likewise can't get past a man not being more successful than they are if they are going to date. I don't think in her case that it is the latter problem as her last boyfriend was obviously not in her class from an earnings standpoint. She'll find someone eventually assuming the private person is at all similar to the public persona. On a side note, what she said sounds very similar to things that Taeyeon has said over the years about the loneliness of performing. Someone who knows them both well should introduce them. I have a feeling they might become good friends.

its actually very normal to feel lonely after something that you plan and devote yourself for a long time. Its the same as with any big project, all musicians and athletes say the same thing. When you release what you cherished for a long time onto the world, you are very happy but yet sad and lonely once it is no longer just yours. Pretty sure Taeyeon and IU know each other.

kentv judyi • Friday, May 12, 2017

I imagine they know each other, but sometimes they don't know each other except pretty formally. They need that mutual friend of both to get them together informally at times kind of like how Tiffany almost certainly knew Bora, but it wasn't until Bora became good friends with Hyoyeon and Sunny through IY2 that they realized that Tiffany and Bora would probably like hanging out together a lot and ended up becoming really good friends.
