As the video gained momentum, IU personally reached out to this devoted fan, extending an invitation to her concert. Taking to her Instagram story, IU wrote: "Hi grandpa! Your videos made me happy. I want to make you happy for a long time. I really appreciate your smile. And.. I'd like to invite you to my concert in the America. My office will contact you, so please come."


She also added an adorable note, "That outfit really suits you. Please enjoy my new album 'The Winning.' Thank you so much."

Upon hearing this news from fans, the grandfather couldn't contain his joy and shared a moment of overwhelming happiness. He expressed his gratitude, saying he just couldn't believe it. He also wrote in his captions on the YouTube video, "IU is such a sweet person. As great as her talent is, so is her heart. Thank you so much, IU. This means so much to me."
