Recently, IU, who received much love from viewers through the Netflix original series 'When Life Gives You Tangerines', proved her popularity by achieving a staggering 10 million subscribers on her YouTube channel.
Previously, IU showcased another transformation in her acting through the Netflix original series 'When Life Gives You Tangerines'. Demonstrating exceptional acting skills, IU took on dual roles as both the young Ae-sun and as a mother in her middle age with a daughter named Geum-myeong. Above all, in Act 1, the charming chemistry between IU and Park Bo-gum exploded, thrilling viewers across the globe.
Perhaps that's why IU's popularity, already a global star, soared even higher, which was evident through her YouTube channel. As of the evening of the 6th, IU's official YouTube channel 'Izikum [IU Official]' announced reaching the milestone of 10 million subscribers.
On that day, the YouTube channel posted a short video titled "10 million YouTuber Izikum," in which IU watched the subscriber count reach 10 million in real-time. Seeing the milestone right before her eyes, IU exclaimed, "10 million subscribers achieved!" appearing surprisingly delighted. Her wide eyes added to her cuteness.
Especially, achieving a subscriber count of '10 million' on a YouTube channel is not a common occurrence. Recently, Choo Sung-hoon, who experienced explosive reactions immediately after starting YouTube, also reached 1.5 million subscribers; however, he expressed disappointment, noting, "After receiving the gold button, when I bragged about it to my daughter Sarang, her reaction was lukewarm." It turns out, the channels Sarang subscribed to had subscriber counts of millions or even over 100 million. Choo Sung-hoon said, "Sarang told me not to be satisfied with 1 million but to aim for 10 million. I will strive for that 10 million."
But IU, who accomplished that difficult feat, reflected in the video, "I have become a YouTuber with over 10 million subscribers and have the diamond button," adding, "I will strive to become a YouTuber creating more entertaining content. I would like to express my gratitude once again to the 10 million subscribers who supported me."
Meanwhile, starting with the first act (episodes 1-4) filled with spring on the 7th of last month, a total of 16 episodes were released over 4 weeks, with 4 episodes each week. It ranked first in the global Top 10 series (non-English) in its third week after release, and after the release of Act 4, it recorded 6,000,000 views (the total viewing time divided by the total running time of the work), achieving a third place in the global Top 10 series (non-English) and concluded with great results.
