Favorite K-Pop songs 2019
As I dive deeper into K-Pop, I discover more interesting and fun songs. These are the ones I listened to most and/or regularly this year. A good number of them are on the dance, funk/pop side as I am not a big fan of urban, hip hop-influenced singles. Again most of them are from girl groups. |
1 | TWICE Fancy
Funny how a song from a group I didn't like before became my #1. This is an addictive tune and I like them heading into a more mature territory (although baby steps). |
2 | DIA Woowa
Underrated group that has taken the more mature route lately as well. This song and 'Woo Woo' are their best singles so far. |
3 | EZUZ Latte Is Horse
Beside the peculiar title, these guys have produced a great tune. Gyeong Ree appears on it and that's a major plus. They are an underground act at the moment, I hope they get more attention. |
4 | CLC Devil
Another underrated girl group, the song is awesome. |
5 | Apink Eung Eung
Another group that turned towards more mature content, the tune is damn catchy. |
6 | Red Velvet Umpah Umpah
The best single since 'Bad Boy', they are one of the tightest groups in the genre today. |
7 | TWICE Hot
Featured on the Fancy You EP, this is really cool. |
8 | Taemin Want
Some heavy George Michael grooves here. |
9 | DALsooooobin Katchup
Slightly different format from your usual k-pop single, but really nice. That stage name change was a bad decision tho. |
10 | TWICE Feel Special
Respectable follow-up to 'Fancy', but nowhere near as great. |
11 | BTS Boy With Luv |
12 | EXID Me & You |
13 | SunMi Noir |
14 | Mamamoo Hip |
15 | AOA Come See Me |
16 | Chung Ha Snapping |
17 | Hong Jin Young Love Tonight |
18 | BOL4 Day Off |
19 | DIA I Will Not |
20 | CLC I Need U |
21 | (G)I-DLE Lion
Whoever came up with the English "translation" for the group's name was on drugs. |
22 | BOL4 Wondering |
23 | Red Velvet Psycho |
24 | WooSung Face |
25 | AOA Sorry |
26 | Mamamoo Gleam
Vulgar display of sponsorship in the music video, but the track is actually nice. |
27 | NCT 127 Highway to Heaven |
