The title "eight" refers to IU and Suga's age of 28 (in Korean system), according to IU. It's also revealed that 28+28 = 56. That's why the song was released on 5/6. Also the number 8, when seen horizontally, represents infinity (see the scene when IU transitioned into her memory in the MV). It also echoes the theme of "forever young". This was repeated multiple times in the MV.

This was a sad song. One with a message about loss and remembering loved ones. I've seen lot of theories about it but it seems to boil down to her friends who committed suicide and how she remembers them in the islands of memories that she has when thinking about them. How they stay forever young within that context. My take is that she's aware in her dreams, which are those beautiful moments together, that she'll have to wake up to the nightmare of the loss. It's like those dreams you have of someone you've lost and see but that moment is fleeting and you chase them only to wake up with that feeling of loss still so poignant. But the music and vocals really were incredible...I enjoyed this. Be safe.

Accdg to what I watched from DKDKTV’s “explained” video, this song was supposed to be another one of the “age songs” of IU like her songs “Twenty Three” and “Palette” (her age was 25 then). But other theories say that this is about her friends who passed away.

It hasn’t been confirmed but many speculate that the song is partially dedicated to 3 of IU’s very close friends who have unfortunately commit suicide. The lyrics are extremely sad and I honestly cry every time I listen. The dragon type animal is thought to represent Jonghyun and the girl in white Sulli, two of her best friends who don’t live in the real world anymore but still in her memories. That could be why she asks “are you happy now, finally happy now” at the beginning. Wanting to know if her friends are free from the pain they suffered in real life. It’s also about her experience growing up and reaching the age 28. The lyrics are really great and I recommend you reading them.

She wanted to record what she feels on her 28th year that's why she made this song, the feeling of lethargy and helplessness which may come from her own personal feelings or how the society is now. You may want to check out the making of this video on her account and she released a live acoustic version of this song on her birthday May 16.

No, it's not. IU never confirmed that. It was a rumor started by an army own interpretation of the mv/song. Please stop with that.

Stop saying like it's a fact. Stop with the bandwagon. Neither suga or iu confirm that, it is just speculation among uaena and army or merely theory. If this is your own theory then you should've worded it better, dont say it lightly this is a sensitive topic. Please respect them who commit suicide, iu, and their fans who have lost their idols.
