Packed with powerful impact, overwhelming group choreography, addictive hooks, and a stylish, high-energy vibe—this is a super track that distills all of SEVENTEEN’s strengths! It’s catchy and unforgettable after just one listen, and it’s ranked high on the charts in Japan.

Released in 2023 as one of the double title tracks from their 10th mini-album FML.

Singing about Sun Wukong (the Monkey King) is such a fresh twist, right? The forceful kick rhythm, breakneck melody, and call-and-response vocals will turn up the heat.

When you think of TWICE, you think of summer songs.

Their 2021 track “Alcohol-Free” is a number that sings about the thrill and intoxication of love when you’re with someone you like, with a bossa nova flavor that creates a pleasantly mature mood.

Park Jin-young wrote and composed the song.

While their intense dance numbers are cool, these more relaxing tracks might be TWICE’s true forte.

The romantic lyrics and Latin-tinged, melancholic melody seem perfect as background music for a date or a drive.

The moment it starts playing, it’s a captivating song that feels like a spell is being cast.

He wrote and composed it himself.

It’s a song that says, “Let’s just enjoy the music!” and it has a catchy, easygoing feel that makes you want to hum along.

The laid-back vibe is irresistible.

Zico’s dance challenge video with Lee Hyori became popular, and I bet some people tried to imitate it.

It’s a track that’s more fun as a pair than solo.

Included on their second album, “Revolution,” it was released as a Japanese-language single in 2010.

The sexy hip-swaying choreography became the group’s calling card, and the song became a social phenomenon, achieving over a million full-track mobile downloads.

The title track of their 8th mini album “Your Choice,” the brisk, exhilarating rock number “Ready to love.” With lyrics that depict swelling feelings of longing and vocals that convey a straightforward passion so intense it feels like it might burst at any moment, it radiates a powerful, beautiful color.

It will especially resonate with anyone who’s fallen for someone they once thought of as just a friend.

It wraps you in a fluttery, heart-racing excitement.

And SEVENTEEN, dripping with water, look fantastic.
