New Album Release (Expected late August 2026)

Noong Abril 4, 2026, ang IU mismo ay nag-announce sa MBC show "Ping Gyeonggo" na plano niya ay ilabas ang bagong album sa summer-fall ng 2026. Sabi niya na "malaking bahagi ay na-complete na," kaya inaasahan ang release noong late August, bago ang September concert.

Will there be a 2026 World Tour?

Hanggang ngayon (April 2026), ang world tour dates ay hindi pa officially announced. Pero batay sa mga dahilan sa ibaba, napakataas ang posibilidad na magkaroon ng world tour pagkatapos ng bagong album release.

2. Album → Korea Concert → Overseas Tour Pattern

Kung titingin sa kamakailan na activity cycle ng IU:

3. Rapid Growth ng International Fanbase

Dahil sa worldwide success ng "Love wins all," international popularity ng "Perfect Crown," at ang energy ng fans sa 2024 world tour, ang international awareness ni IU ay tumaas pa lalo. May demand mula sa Asia, North America, at Europe.
