Pieces (IU) ended the notion that IU will bring any song and make a hit

Can't find Kep1er

And Wa Da Da peaks are

[CHARTS] #Kep1er “WA DA DA” — 23:00 KST

#96 MelOn [+4] (new peak)

#133 Genie [+26] (new peak)

#34 Bugs [+30]

So no, music show wins aren't going to matter to the Senior Singer

Am checking what was the lowest Gaon peak of any IU headed song since Nagging(?).. And it is Pieces-You at #28.

If your worst performing song in a decade worth of songs still hits #28 on the charts with thousands of songs and at least few hundreds in immediate time, that's gold,

The worst performance metric is probably as important the number of #1s she has.

pieces was literally a bunch of rejects

Her rejects chart better than 99% the best of most acts.

Even IU said as much - she didn't even release a music video. Of course they performed great for what were essentially 10 years of b-side rejects.
