She gave larger-than-life performances, complete with her grand outfits, huge stage, hot air balloon, drone shows and many more things.IU was diagnosed with Patulous Eustachian Tube Dysfunction, a disorder that causes a person to hear their own voices loudly. As per Verywell Health, it is described as a rare condition that affects only 1 out of every 10,000 people.The disorder is similar to having clogged ears. There is no specific cause for the same. Some of the risk factors include rapid and significant weight loss, anxiety and stress, conditions with the jaw, and exhaustion.ᵗᵃˢʸᵃ🐥@_fairyfelixxShe proved us that she's still THE SINGER who could sing 3 octaves easily MAD RESPECT 🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️1U4ENA UNDER THE ORANGE SUN FOREVER WITH 1U4ENA #My_Youth_for_14Years_is_IU #오렌지_태양_아래 #The_Golden_Hour #The_Golden_Hour_Day2 #IU #아이유 2184533She proved us that she's still THE SINGER who could sing 3 octaves easily 😭😭😭 MAD RESPECT 🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️1U4ENA UNDER THE ORANGE SUN FOREVER WITH 1U4ENA #My_Youth_for_14Years_is_IU #오렌지_태양_아래 #The_Golden_Hour #The_Golden_Hour_Day2 #IU #아이유 https://t.co/qCrFgyD2HFAs per Korean outlet Hankyoreh, the soloist revealed her struggles directly to fans after performing Love Poem. She mentioned that it had become a bit worse on the second day and that preparing for the concert was tougher for her.She said:“I actually have a bit of a problem with my ears, so I was nervous and prepared for this performance. It's not serious, but there was a situation where I couldn't control my ears well over a year ago. Since the end of yesterday's performance, my ears have gotten a little worse, So I think I had a little hellish day while rehearsing last night and today.”She added that she could not hear the audience properly but thanked them for their support as she continued:“I barely heard you today, but I felt like they were cheering for me and congratulating me on my 14th anniversary.”UAENAs, IU’s fandom, also observed that the singer-actress’ documentary, Pieces, shed light on the same subject.
