IU introduced her radio show with a heart swelling with joy, gushing, "Hello. This is Melon Radio Star DJ, IU. It's great to meet you all. I've been dreaming about presiding over my own radio show for quite a while now, and I've got butterflies in my stomach, it feels strange." 

In the special corner dedicated for her to introduce her favorite songs, IU recommended Zion.T's "Zero Gravity," evincing her deep love for the soulful singer's music. She said, "While preparing my album, ever time I would lack the spirit or the energy, I would listen to Zion.T's music fot motivation. I worked on my album with the burning ambition that I must make cool music like that of Zion.T's." It looks like IU's plan worked, because her music is currently sweeping the charts!
