As a special treat, the “Love Wins All” singer returned to the stage and accepted multiple song requests. Ballads were the crowd favorite, and she was happy to oblige.

Just as IU was surprised by her Uaenas that night, they were equally shocked by her cover of the Filipino OPM song “Pasilyo.” Her fluent accent and unparalleled voice made the performance absolutely perfect!
