IU held a two-night concert at the Seoul World Cup Stadium in Seoul, South Korea on September 21 and 22, celebrating the conclusion of her ‘HEREH’ world tour. On the first night of the shows, IU surprised fans by debuting an unreleased song titled ‘Bye Summer’.
However, the K-pop star told the audience that she had no intention of releasing, saying that it was “made just for the encore concert”, according to Koreaboo. “I don’t usually like summer. But this summer, when I was on tour around the world, has been one of the best I’ve had. It felt longer than usual, so I wrote this song,” IU said.

원래 여름을 싫어하는데 월드투어를 다녔던 이번 여름이 최고였고 유독 여름이 길었던 느낌이라 쓴 노래래
발매 계획은 전혀 없고 이 콘서트만을 위해서 동환님과 만들었대

IU’s massive 2024 ‘HEREH’ world tour – originally titled ‘H.E.R’ – kicked off on March 2 at the KSPO Dome in Seoul, South Korea, where she played four concerts over two weekends, featuring special appearances from NewJeans, Park Bo-gum and more.
The tour was in support of IU’s most recently released project, her sixth mini-album titled ‘The Winning’ that released in late February this year. The album boasted two title tracks: ‘Shopper’ and ‘Holssi’. The accompanying music video for the former song was notably narrated and produced by DPR Ian, who also made an appearance.
