On November 22, outlets revealed the reigning K-pop Queen IU’s highly-anticipated return to the MMA stage after her last performance in 2017. The singer-songwriter bid goodbye to her 20s with her album LILAC, which offered more glimpses into her personal diary than just being an album. She then welcomed her 30s with open arms and a much more mature and wiser sense of life, through her single strawberry moon.
IU’s MMA 2021 stage will reflect her perspective on crossing the bridge over to the third decade of her life. The theme of the performance is described as “a door connecting the end of her 20s with the beginning of her 30s.” She will perform strawberry moon with a live eight-member band. Fans can expect the instrumentals for the band version to be slightly different from the standard release.
An insider from the awards show explained the stage,
“The entire story will fit the story of artist IU, so it’ll feel as if you’ve come to an IU concert.”
The song strawberry moon, released on October 19, was written and composed by IU. The song claimed its fourth music show win on Inkigayo on November 21. It even maintained its No. 1 spot on Soompi’s Single Music Chart, November Week 3.
