We all know that there is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hate for no reason. Korean female artist Kim Taeyeon personally criticized another female artist IU. The reason is nothing more than fame and fortune.
1. Kim Taeyeon and IU
Kim Taeyeon and IU are both Korean female soloists. Female solo is a term used in the Korean entertainment industry, which means a female singer who releases works and performs under a single name. Kim Taeyeon was born in Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea. She is a member of the girl singing group Girls' Generation. She debuted very early and won the first place in the 8th SM Youth Singer Competition. She then entered SM Entertainment Co., Ltd., one of the most famous management companies in Korea, as a trainee, and later officially debuted as a member of Girls' Generation. Although she is a member of Girls' Generation and has served as the leader, Kim Taeyeon often releases songs alone. She once won the Popularity Award at the 23rd Korea Golden Disc Awards for her song "Can You Hear Me".
IU, formerly known as Lee Ji-eun, is a female singer born in Seoul, South Korea. In 2008, IU officially debuted with "Mier" on the music program "M! Countdown". In 2011, IU quickly became popular in South Korea with the title song "Good Days". On December 6, 2020, IU won the 2020MAMA Best Vocal Performance SOLO, Best Female Singer, and Best Collaboration Awards.
2. The beginning and end of the "war of words" between the two people
Ordinarily, Kim Taeyeon and IU are both famous singers. It is impossible for Kim Taeyeon to come out and tear IU apart for no reason, which is full of explosive atmosphere. "War of words", so what exactly is the "war of words" between the two pljjs?
The cause of the matter is this. IU left a message on the social platform of Hongttochi, a professional keyboard player, saying: "Ah... just do IU's performances." '' Kim Taeyeon then left a message below saying: ''Ji Eun (IU's real name)... I'm sorry... but hongttochi is mine. '' This keyboardist named hongttochi opened a personal social platform account as early as 2015. The first post she posted was about a concert for IU. Later, she also sent posts about concerts for other artists. But obviously, this keyboard player is not exclusive to a certain artist. She has cooperative relationships with many artists. It is just a matter of time.
But IU’s message made her fans think that the keyboard player was a member of IU’s team and had interacted with IU on social platforms before. Kim Taeyeon's message directly pointed out that this keyboard player is not exclusive to IU. Kim Taeyeon's fans also believe that IU's behavior is completely "green tea" behavior. Because the main character personally came to the stage to start the fight, fans from both sides were also very quarrelsome.
It is reported that the reason for Kim Taeyeon's move is that both of them are Korean female solos and are often compared with each other. They also often compete for resources. All along, the two of them have been fighting for "Korea's number one female solo artist". The title of SOLO'' has been secretly in contention. Before this incident happened, fans of the two started a "war of words" over the TV series "Hotel Del Luna". The reason was that the TV series "Hotel Del Luna" starred IU, but its OTS had "Hotel Del Luna" sung by Kim Taeyeon. A Poem Called You. After "Hotel Del Luna" became popular, fans from both sides had a dispute over whether "the TV series drove the songs" or "the songs drove the TV series." 3. The singing skills and influence of Kim Taeyeon and IU
In fact, I think both Kim Taeyeon and IU’s singing skills are top-notch, and their popularity and popularity are also the "top" in Korea. , there is no need to fight for a keyboard player. After all, the title of "Korea's No. 1 Female Solo" does not depend on the keyboard player, but on the singer's own singing skills.
Among the two, Kim Taeyeon's voice is very recognizable, especially the "slight sadness" in her voice when she sings ballads. Many people were attracted to her on stage. The beautiful atmosphere of singing has attracted fans, and he is a capable and hard-working singer. In addition, Kim Taeyeon has lent her voice to many TV dramas and has sung in countless OTS. Except for "Hotel Del Luna" mentioned above, every album she released is also remarkable. Her album "Purpose" not only ranked No. 1 on major music and record charts, but also topped music album charts in 25 regions, setting a record for the No. 1 album by a Korean solo female singer.
IU’s singing skills have never disappointed. She is also very well-known in Korea. Although she is alone, she has taken on the role of a "girl group". IU’s musical ability, It’s to the extent that passers-by will be moved by the catchy melody when they hear her songs. Generally people who are not her fans will listen to her songs. The most important thing is that IU is also a singer-songwriter. She is a real talent, and her ability in writing lyrics and music is also recognized by the audience. Since her debut, IU has won six major awards for her music. Her popularity among the people is not unusually high. IU's music style is relaxed and cheerful, and she is good at using falsetto. Listening to her songs, you will have a clear atmosphere and immersion. The light jazz style makes people feel a kind of comfort and confession from young singers. It is unique in the mature Korean music atmosphere.
This time, Kim Taeyeon personally went out to confront iu, which undoubtedly completely broke the previous mild competition. In this regard, I can only say that wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and the entertainment industry is no exception. Of course, competition between singers ultimately depends on their works, and it is useless to just engage in a "war of words."
