GREEN APPLE’s “Que Sera Sera,” which portrays the belief in a bright future, is a perfect song for fun dance time.
The choreography also expresses fun with movements like spreading your arms wide and light steps, enhancing the mood of the song.
If matching the song’s rhythm makes the movements too intricate, try simplifying by making one move over two beats, so more people can enjoy the dance.
It’s also important to be mindful of facial expressions and use your whole body to convey a joyful atmosphere.

MOMOLAND’s “BBoom BBoom” is also loved as a staple dance number.
By the way, the Japanese version of this song was their Japanese debut single.
“BBoom BBoom” expresses the thrill of budding romance using the onomatopoeic word in its title.
Since many of the moves match that onomatopoeia, the choreography is easy to pick up intuitively.
It’s designed for multiple dancers, so feel free to adapt it flexibly as needed.
I’m So Hotmomoland
Released in 2019 as MOMOLAND’s first single under their new lineup, “I’m So Hot” features a comfortably electronic sound, with lyrics that depict the excitement of dancing and a rising body temperature.
The choreography focuses on hand movements, making it easier to dance even for those who might get winded by more intense routines.
There’s also a Japanese version of the song, so you can choose that one if you prefer.
ultramarineYOASOBI
Inspired by the manga Blue Period, this song by YOASOBI celebrates a passion for self-expression and the courage to take a new step.
Its powerful melody and IKURA’s clear, airy vocals bolster the resolve of young people facing towering challenges.
Released in September 2020, it was used in Bourbon’s “Alfort Mini Chocolate” commercial and was also chosen as the theme song for Nippon TV’s “Dance ONE Project ’21” in 2021.
With its rhythmic, refreshing sound, it’s perfect for those who want to express themselves through dance or performances.
Why not take that first step forward, carried by its vibrant, dynamic melody?
It’s a sweets-ful time!Tokyo Dizunīrando
This is a lively dance track starring Vanellope, a character from the movie Wreck-It Ralph.
As a song themed around a world of sweets, both the music and costumes are colorful and cute.
The dancers are dressed in candy- and cake-inspired outfits, creating a fun atmosphere just by looking.
If you include it in recreational activities or a school sports day program, it’s sure to send kids’ excitement soaring.
Many of the choreographed moves are light and in sync with the rhythm, making them easy to learn.
Since there’s also a narrative element in the background, adding creative touches to the costumes and staging will produce a cohesive, unified performance.

Its lyrics capture the sense of liberation on the dancefloor, and DJ Snake’s exceptional production truly shines.
It’s a perfect pick for anyone looking to energize a party scene—great for dancing and having fun with friends.
