Singer and actress IU has achieved 10 million subscribers on YouTube and received the Diamond Button.
On the 14th, a video titled “Unboxing the Diamond Button of 10 Million YouTuber IU” was released on the YouTube channel ‘Lee Ji-geum’.
IU drew attention by certifying the box containing the Diamond Button, saying, “It came with a certificate.” She then took out the Diamond Button and expressed her happiness, saying, “If you look at the back, it says ‘Lee Ji-geum’. I will carry this around like a Teletubby.”
IU added, “This is the Diamond Button we created together,” and said, “I filmed a live video when the subscriber count hit exactly 10 million, and I felt really good at that moment. I was glad to witness that moment.”
She playfully remarked, “I guess I’m already a bit used to it?” and explained, “Many people around me congratulated me. I realized the impact was significant. I felt proud.”
Her next goal is to achieve 50 million subscribers to receive the Ruby Button. IU expressed her ambition, saying, “I thought the Diamond Button was the end. But when I asked the PD, I found out there’s something next. Now that I know there’s a Ruby Button, I think I should aim for that.”
