Addictively Catchy K-POP Special (51–60)
STRANGERSUNMI
Sunmi, formerly of Wonder Girls, has continued to thrive as a solo artist with a unique concept.
This dark, hip-hop-tinged track feels fresh, especially with the parts where the music drops out during the calmly repeating refrain.
The way differently toned sections flow together so naturally is another point of appeal.
While the lyrics depict elements of romance, the title also evokes meanings like “outsider” or “stranger,” inviting a range of interpretations depending on the listener.
Above all, Sunmi’s rich low register is incredibly cool—an addictive track.

A sub-unit born from the popular Korean group SUPER JUNIOR, SUPER JUNIOR-L.S.S released this track in February 2024.

Love Me Like ThisNMIXX
“Love Me Like This” is an irresistibly catchy hip-hop tune from the six-member girl group NMIXX.
The chorus, especially with its repeated title, is so memorable it loops in your head over and over.
The bouncy, funk-like beat feels great, too, and before you know it you’ll want to start dancing! The whole track is meticulously structured, and the way it slows down a bit in the pre-chorus before launching into the chorus gives you goosebumps.
MONEYLiSA
Lisa, known as a member of BLACKPINK.
While BLACKPINK is a stylish group with hip-hop influences, Lisa’s solo work explores a more authentic hip-hop style.
Among her tracks, the one especially popular on TikTok is MONEY.
The song is primarily rap-based, but the chorus is sung melodically.
Its catchy chorus has led to widespread use as background music for dance videos in many countries.
