Rough Translation of IU & GD talk at Palette Concert [20171209]

IU: I want to introduce someone who especially came today, it's GDragon~ GD: Hello, I'm GDragong. It's been a long time. IU: It really has been a long time. Have you been well? GD: Ah, I've been well. IU: Your hair colour has changed. Back then it was red. But really, when I suggested for you to guest on my concert back on the stage (at his concert) and we made that promise, I really want to thank you for keeping the promise and comming~ GD: Honestly IU-ssi guested at my first and also last concert. I came with a really thankful heart. I haven't guested at other artists concert before but it feels nice~

IU: I am going to say it for the first time today, I have also recieved a really great gift from GD. I'm really thankful. It is a really good gift. Can I talk about it? (starts talking about it but then stops) Do you have time? (GD is confused: Time?) Do you have time? Can I talk a lot today? Do you have to travel abroad or something? (GD: Ah you mean right now? It's okay) IU is talking about the present that seemed to be a CD. She thought it is a DVD or something but it was twinkling. It turns out that it was IU's Palette album that GD has "tuned" :D (she didn't know how to call it) He decorated it with stickers and other stuff. 

IU: I didn't know if I should recieve such a great gift. Did you really make it? GD: I was bored so I made it~ But IU-ssi gave me a present first. Can I talk about it? IU: Aren't you talking about the soju? GD: So I still am drinking that~ The album is called Palette (so he decoreted it with that feeling)

IU: It really is one of the best three gifts that I have recieved. While preapring the album Palette and expecially the song I have recieved a lot of help and advices (GD: Me?) Yeah~ I am really thankful. Thank you really~ (GD: I am tahnkful~) IU: Can I brag with you gift? Like upload it on instagram? (GD laughs: Yes) I'm really thankful~

IU (when the fans asked for her to sing some songs): We really don't have the MR prepared ... what do you want to listen to? (trying to catch what the audience is saying) What do you want to listen to? .. We really have no MR for this (sulking) 

Look at how manager oppa was gone but quikly came back (giggling) ... We really do not have the MR .. how about I sing it like that? What do you want to listen to? But in return you have to promise that after the event you have to get some chamisul. Are you promising?

IU: This is really, sincerly a promise!

Audience: YES! 

IU: I'll sing everything~ What sould I sing? But you guys really all want something else .. I'll just sing anything

Melon Radio Ep. 2 Part 1 [Rough Trans!] IU: When I think about Spring the song Not Spring Love Or Cherry Blossoms comes to my mind. I really like that song. I listen it a lot. I felt a great pressure while writing the lyrics. And worried a lot. IU: My album is also coming out in spring. It has a lot of spring - like songs. There is only one week left to my album~ it will do well right? Melon Radio Ep. 2 Part 2 [Rough Trans!] (The flute player is at the studio once again) IU is playing a quiz game with the PD of Melon Radio. She has to guess people based on a description of that person's face. The first person is about a person she has sung a duet with but isn't a singer. IU thought that it is Gain but then she guessed right by saying it's Kim Yuna. The second person is someone who is a male and keeps their promises well. He is loved well (by the public) and writes his own songs. IU: the candidates are .. first it's Oh Hyuk .. who else? Someone else doesn't come to my mind. It's Oh Hyuk! (But it turned out wrong) Ah, wait. Can't you give me another hint? PD-nim chancen? PD: it's a sunbae in the music industry IU: Park Jiyoung sunbaenim? (Everyone laughing) PD: 1. Lee juk 2. Song Si Kyung 3. Kim Chan Wan IU: Kim Chan Wan sunbaenim! No? It's wrong~ then Lee Juk sunbaenim! PD: Yeah that's right but we can't count this answer. So you have guessed one answer right. Here comes the third person. IU: I'm going to guess it right~ (talking to herself) Someone who has a lot of tears, has a v-line, listens to others well ... (guesses someone but it's wrong) can't you give my a hint? PD: it's not a singer and he is the same age as you. IU: Yoo Seung Ho! (Right answer) Yay~ I've guessed it right. The hint that the person is the same age helped me. PD; here comes the last person .. IU: I'm going to guess it right~ (After listening to the description) it's really hard. (Gets the hint that the person is a celebrity but not if a singer or actor) park Myung Soo sunbaenim? (Right answer) PD: When did you get the feel of the answer? IU: When the small eyes were mentioned PD: How did you like the quiz? IU: it is really new. From now on you can do this all the time. It was really fun. (IU gets a prize for answering 2 out of 3 questions right. It's lip balm. She said that she wanted to buy those) IU: thank you, I've had a fun time~ The next song is "Thinking Bout You" by Frank Ocean. While preparing for the album I've listened to a lot of genres. So I wanted to let you listen to the song. Melon Radio Ep. 2 Part 3 [Rough Trans] IU: I have received messages from you regarding your experiences with my songs. (She is reading out the messages) Someone went to the karaoke bar and has sung Meaning of You with their father. IU said that it warms her up to hear those kind of stories. The song was well loved. Someone said that they have listened with their boyfriend to IU's songs but broke up. Then voice mail came out. IU: I hope you will get the chance to listen to my more love filled songs like Boo with your partner~ (singing a bit of Boo) IU: Why are all your nicknames so hard to read? She reads out two stories about people who have experienced a break up at a cafe. One has listened to Through the Night and said that she really felt the lyrics and cried. The other one listened to the story only I didn't know. IU: the person before also broke up at a cafe. Could you be that couple? I'm getting goosebumps~ The lyrics of The Story Only I didn't know are really sad .. let's read one more~ (reads it) IU: I feel the most happiest when people say that they got comforted by the songs that she has written. Thank you so much~ don't be too upset. The day that you will do well will come. On those days listen to Bad Day. IU: the person who gets chosen will get a free CD but who do I choose? I've decided (the story about one sided love) that was fast kekeke IU: From now on I will keep on wiring good songs. Thank you very much~ The next song is The Shower. Melon Radio Ep. 2 Part 5 [Rough TRANS] (Part 4 skipped because it was some kind of dubbing of a story) IU talking about the Moana dubbing and saying that she got strength from the part "I am Moanaaa~" IU: People who say that it's childish to watch animated movies,should try it out. You get strength/energy from them .. IU: IU's melon radio show is now coming to an end~ (flute and piano playing Heart) How did you feel during the radio show? I'm glad that you have enjoyed it. Next time it will be more fun. It will be last time though. The last song will be "Meditation". Bye~ [Those are only rough translations of the parts that I have understood ]

[ENG TRANS] IU & Lee JoonGi win the best couple award at 2016 SBS Drama Awards

MC: Did you know that you would win the award or didn’t you? Please answer honestly.

LJG: We wanted it.

IU: We really wanted it.

LJG: Therefor, this morning I came from Goryeo. For my undying love, I wanted to be with Haesoo.

MC2: Where did you come from?

LHJ: I came from Goryeo.

MC2: The doctors over there, please treat this patient. (Yoon Yeon Seok and  Seo Hyun Jin are acting out as doctors and the MC asks them for help)

LJG: Therefore I’m really happy. For us it is a big award.

MC2: Please say something too Jieun

IU: I wanted this award also really badly. But the nominees were really amazing so we didn’t expect much. Also receiving such a big award, I’m feeling really happy. For making my character Haesoo so beautiful, I want to thank Lee Joon Gi sunbaenim.

MC2: You two are a bit suspicious? You are not ...? 

IU: Yeah?

MC: Ehh~. I have something really interesting here. Whenever the cast of Scarlet Heart meets up, IU and Lee Joon Gi drink a lot of alcohol. That’s what I heard from Hong Jonghyun. Why do you drink so much?

LJG: (towards Hong Jonghyun) What’s wrong with you?

We are getting along quite well with the cast. Strangely, drinking the alcohol Haesoo, Jieun looks so beautiful to me. I can’t help but talk even more.

MC2: Anyway, we will continue to be suspicious of you two. Well what kind of alcohol do you drink?

IU: isul ..? (note: you can not name just any product brand during a live broadcast :D) 

MC2: Isn’t this just now an ad? I’m sorry! Please look nice upon us.

MC: She says that she can do it!

MC2: She is determined .. 

MC: She wants to sit down no matter what.

MC2: I thought that she wouldn’t be able to do it but she said that she will do so.

MC: Honestly there is a skript prepared in case she wouldn’t be able to do it. (?)

(turning the massage chair on)

MC: I want to congratulate you once again for winning.

From now on, will you take on any role and any drama no matter what?

IU: Yeah, I will work hard! Thank you.

MC: Why don’t you say a few words to your family and fans?

Hi~ during sbs gayo, do you know where the other idols where sitting? I would love to see the reactions during IU's performance

Sorry for the late reply! I just saw your question. 

I guess they were sitting where the interviews where held. The performance of IU that was broadcasted was filmed a day ago. IU sang during the live broadcast aswell though.

“As your calm eyes fall upon me, 

will I still be able to smile serenely like before?

I think I’m tired. I’ve held on for really long. 

I wish there were a shortcut for me to return to you.” - IU (Knees)

151008 Jang Kiha Fancafe Post about IU

Hello, this is Jang Kiha. I′m writing because I wanted to address today′s articles, concerning IU and me, directly. Yes, we are happily dating! I met IU for the first time in October 2013 when she appeared as a guest on a radio show I used to host. We talked then, and I thought ′This person is really awesome.′ After talking to her later, I learned that I, surprisingly, had made a good impression on IU that day as well. Two years have passed already since we confirmed our feelings for each other. IU is someone I′m really thankful for and really dear to me." She′s a warm companion, who is my greatest strength when I′m going through a hard time, and someone I have a lot to learn from when it comes to life and music. We will continue to date happily and not cause those who care for IU and me to worry! We will encourage each other and make music that is better than before! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone for your interest. From Jang Kiha
