[Jang Giyong, the model in the 'Friday' MV, received a proposal to be casted by IU herself]
In an interview with Snap on 2nd Jan, model Jang Giyong said, 'There were barely any NGs for the kiss scene in the 'Friday' MV. IU wasn't very nervous and was immersed in the filming to do a good job" and "right after we finished filming, I asked the director about it. She said IU brought an old copy of my Maps photoshoot (and showed it to her). The director also had a good feeling about me the first time we met. This was a good chance for me. This is the start, so I thought to myself that I had to work harder," explaining how he got cast for the MV.

200:00:04,26 --> 00:00:14,28<i> -Finally, the concert has ended- </i>
300:00:17,50 --> 00:00:23,68<i> -Not sure when it all started- </i>
400:00:28,25 --> 00:00:30,10As I was performing on the first day of the concert
500:00:30,40 --> 00:00:32,25Until the point when the curtains went up
600:00:32,55 --> 00:00:37,00All I could think about was ëI wonít make it.í 
700:00:37,10 --> 00:00:41,90In fact my mind was blank,It was as if someone turned off a switch in my head
800:00:41,90 --> 00:00:44,25I was in a state of vacuum
900:00:44,50 --> 00:00:48,45My bodyÖ But it was really like magic.. 
1000:00:48,55 --> 00:00:49,00The curtains went up 
1100:00:49,20 --> 00:00:39,20And it was really amazing
1200:00:50,35 --> 00:00:54,30But the strength I got from the stage and the audienceÖ 
1300:00:54,55 --> 00:01:00,20Itís a kind of strength thatís unexplainable
1400:01:00,35 --> 00:01:04,10Now the concert has ended, 
1500:01:04,25 --> 00:01:05,45I really canít believe it. 
1600:01:09,00 --> 00:01:12,50<i> -A starting full of impossibilities- </i>
1700:01:15,00 --> 00:01:19,28<i> -At that moment when her mind was in a blank- </i>
1800:01:21,00 --> 00:01:24,28<i>-Almost like magicÖ-</i>
1900:01:26,00 --> 00:01:28,60<i>-A moment that was unbelievable-</i>
2000:01:34,00 --> 00:01:38,00<i>-The curtains to the splendid stage closeÖ-</i>
2100:01:39,35 --> 00:01:41,90If I were to be honest, now that Iíve come this far,Iíd like to say thisÖ
2200:01:42,00 --> 00:01:45,55It was so tiring I thought I was going to die kekeke
2300:01:47,10 --> 00:01:49,65Really, It wasnít just ìIím so tired Iím going to dieî 
2400:01:49,75 --> 00:01:53,30But to the extent of ìam I dead right now?î *laughs*
2500:01:53,40 --> 00:01:56,25My body was really really worn out 
2600:01:56,40 --> 00:01:59,05It was really tiring and my schedule right now is tiring too 
2700:01:59,15 --> 00:02:03,35Moreover, after having activities continuously

2800:02:03,40 --> 00:02:08,50Without any break for the past 5 year
2900:02:08,60 --> 00:02:12,00I think Iím feeling the aftereffects nowÖ 
3000:02:12,10 --> 00:02:14,60So after my drama and concert activities this time
3100:02:14,70 --> 00:02:17,55Iím determined to have a good break no matter what now
3200:02:17,65 --> 00:02:20,00It was tiring for me stamina-wise
3300:02:20,00 --> 00:02:22,70But after overcoming all that
3400:02:22,80 --> 00:02:25,20Somehow it feels much more
3500:02:25,25 --> 00:02:26,10satisfyingÖ
3600:02:27,00 --> 00:02:28,82<i>-Not the end but the beginning-</i>
3700:02:29,40 --> 00:02:31,14<i>-Now fantasy becomes reality-</i>
3800:06:47,15 --> 00:06:50,40Initially, before I sang ëBetween the Lipsí and ëObliviate' 
3900:06:50,50 --> 00:06:50,40I came up with the idea (of the intro perf) 
4000:06:52,22 --> 00:06:56,00We actually wanted it to be of a higher level 
4100:06:56,85 --> 00:06:58,93<i>-After the spring of the twenty year oldÖ-</i>
4200:07:00,35 --> 00:07:02,80<i>-Finally the girl becomes a lady-</i>
4300:07:04,30 --> 00:07:06,15the rating of my concert (as in like PG-13, RA, etc.)Ö
4400:07:06,25 --> 00:07:09,70I think I forgot about that for a momentÖ
4500:07:09,80 --> 00:07:12,00so it was a bit of a pity. 
4600:07:12,12 --> 00:07:15,50Next time, Iíll go with a rating suitable for 14-year-olds 
4700:07:15,60 --> 00:07:17,30and do a more classy concert. 
4800:07:18,65 --> 00:07:20,70<i>-Everyone has secrets-</i>
4900:07:21,28 --> 00:07:29,98<i>-If you know what it is, you might faint-</i>
5000:07:24,50 --> 00:07:29,30<i>-The shining girl who has secrets-</i>*whispers* Gidalyeo ( Wait a little )
5100:14:17,90 --> 00:14:21,10Oo~ I was troubled as to how to go about doing this
5200:14:21,15 --> 00:14:24,45ëBad Dayí is a song that is quite large-scale
5300:14:24,50 --> 00:14:25,80Since itís my own song...
5400:14:25,86 --> 00:14:28,20I thought it would be good if I played the guitar along to it
5500:14:28,25 --> 00:14:30,60I feel really comfortable playing the guitar while I sing as well, 
5600:14:30,70 --> 00:14:31,90so I decided to play the guitar andÖ 
5700:14:36,00 --> 00:14:40,00*IU is preparing to sing~~ kekeke XD*
5800:14:48,25 --> 00:14:58,90<i>-ëForgotten Seasoní sung by IU-</i>
5900:20:08,78 --> 00:20:13,90<i>-IU moves to front stage with her session members-</i>
6000:20:28,10 --> 00:20:30,15It was really great
6100:20:30,20 --> 00:20:31,86It was a pity that 
6200:20:31,92 --> 00:20:34,66I could only do the small theatre concert for

6300:20:34,72 --> 00:20:37,15ëLove of Bí and I really wanted to do a small theatre concert
6300:20:37,21 --> 00:20:40,48I thought to myself ënext time Iíll really do a small theatre concertí
6400:20:40,55 --> 00:20:42,70But before that happens
6500:20:42,85 --> 00:20:45,08This is kind of likeÖ 
6600:20:45,15 --> 00:20:47,45A preview? 
6700:20:47,55 --> 00:20:50,00The performance for ëLove of Bí was prepared with such a mindset. 
6800:20:55,65 --> 00:20:58,65-A performance to get closer to the audience-
6900:20:59,90 --> 00:21:01,90*I love this part kekeke XD*
7000:24:14,90 --> 00:24:18,06<i>-An even more tiring day than ëBad Dayí-</i>
7100:24:20,30 --> 00:24:23,70<i>-Even with everything memorised in her heart-</i>
7200:24:26,87 --> 00:24:32,95<i>-A stage that was more scary than exciting-</i>
100:24:42,00 --> 00:24:44,75As I was preparing for this concert, this thought came to mind.
200:24:44,80 --> 00:24:50,65ëWill I be able to put on a satisfactory concert before I die?í 
300:24:50,65 --> 00:24:55,35ëAre concerts supposed to be like that?í 
400:24:55,40 --> 00:24:47,18ëAre they supposed to leave you with regrets?í 
500:24:57,23 --> 00:25:00,50As I keep putting on concertsÖ 
600:25:00,55 --> 00:25:02,26Somehow I always felt that I was lacking in some areas, 
700:25:02,30 --> 00:25:04,35I wondered myself,ëIs it really alright to keep putting on concerts like that?íÖ 
800:25:04,40 --> 00:25:06,90Before I step onto all these stages, 
900:25:06,95 --> 00:25:08,60I wondered about these things, 
1000:25:08,65 --> 00:25:12,18But when I actually stepped onto the stage, 
1100:25:12,22 --> 00:25:15,80I donít have such thoughts at all. 
1100:25:15,85 --> 00:25:19,35I felt that itís not about whether
1200:25:19,40 --> 00:25:23,08Iíll be satisfied or not with my performance, 
1300:25:23,13 --> 00:25:25,05But this is just something I have got to do. 
1400:25:25,10 --> 00:25:27,60Thatís what I thought as I did this concert. 
1500:25:27,65 --> 00:25:33,50So it seems Iíll just have to keep performing. keke
1600:25:33,55 --> 00:25:36,85Itís not about whether Iím satisfied or not, 
1700:25:36,90 --> 00:25:38,85But something that I have to do in order to stay alive. 
1800:25:38,90 --> 00:25:41,86While having funÖ 
1900:25:41,91 --> 00:25:48,10I think my future concerts will have a certain philosophy too. 
2000:25:48,15 --> 00:25:50,90Theyíll carry more weight... 
2100:25:50,94 --> 00:25:55,22And I think Iíll become a more confident singer
2200:25:55,27 --> 00:25:58,06Really confindent in singing
2200:25:58,12 --> 00:25:59,85With a higher self-esteem as well...
2300:25:59,90 --> 00:26:01,90Thank you everyone who joined me for this concert. 
10000:26:08,80 --> 00:26:15,50<i>-ìWhen I walk around and hear my songs being played, I feel really blissful.î (From an interview during IUís debut 2008.9.24)-</i>
10100:26:18,75 --> 00:26:20,52<i>-From a girl who has always loved to sing-</i>
10200:26:21,32 --> 00:26:23,25<i>-To a lady who now knows how to enjoy the stage-</i>
10300:26:26,62 --> 00:26:28,97<i>-To a musician who says music is her lifeÖ-</i>
10400:27:00,20 --> 00:27:02,80*Jieun So Cute~ ><*

Guys...I just received my iudotcom calendar today. You know iudotcom is the fanbase that support IU and also provided the buffet for IU a few day ago. I contributed to this group and they gave this calendar in exchange. Thanks @squishy for sending this to me from Singapore. I'm really appreciated it. The calendar is really cool and I like it a lot.
This is the picture of the last page of this calendar. There is IU's autograph on it.

"IU wasn’t quite the image I expected of a young girl. With matured thoughts, she seemed like a precocious child who could almost become a director? She was carefree, unlike other celebrities who wear masks to hide their true selves. A very thoughtful friend. A celebrity with a different concept."

140110 Yoo Inna Turn Up the Volume - IU as short-term part-timer

[AUDIO/TRANSLATION] 140110 Yoo Inna Turn Up the Volume - IU as short-term part-timer

A listener asked whether IU will be a regular guest on the show keke you guys are curious right? I really wish we could do the show together everyday. We’re planning to use IU as a short-term part-timer. She was on her knees begging us to take her, how could we not? But when she has to leave, I think I’ll be the one on my knees, begging her not to go keke We’ll use her as a short-term part-timer and more details will be revealed next time. I’ll have to discuss with the boss first, not the KBS boss though, but the Pretty Boy Gift Shop boss, Lee Jihyung. I guess there’s no reason he’ll object to it, right? It’ll be really funny, like ‘Sorry Inna, I don’t think that will be possible’ Anyway, I’ll have to go settle it with the boss first.

(Note: ‘Pretty Boy GIft Shop’ is a segment of the radio show every Monday, with singer Lee Jihyung.)
