Among IU’s many hit songs, this one stands out as especially wonderful.

IU herself wrote the lyrics and composed the music, packing the moments of her 25-year-old self tightly into it.

The track also boasts a luxurious feature from BIGBANG’s G-DRAGON.

IU’s soothing vocals and G-DRAGON’s warm, effortlessly relaxed voice blend gently together.

Japanese DJ tofubeats, active across various scenes, also selected it as one of his Top 5 songs of the first half of 2017 on the music program “Kanjam.”

MR.TAXIGirls’ Generation

[FANMADE] | Girls’ Generation – Mr. Taxi (Korean Ver.)
MR.TAXIGirls' Generation

The queens of K-POP, Girls’ Generation, and their hit song.

It’s a slightly older track, but isn’t it one that even people who don’t know much about K-POP are familiar with? The dance performed by Girls’ Generation members dressed like yellow taxi drivers is addictive.

The album it’s included on features production by Teddy Riley and many other renowned composers.

EVERYDAYWINNER

WINNER – ‘EVERYDAY’ M/V
EVERYDAYWINNER

This is the title track from the 2018 album EVERYDAY.

The song topped not only Korean music shows but also reached No.

1 on iTunes in 18 countries! WINNER is a quintessential YG Entertainment group, with members who actively participate in songwriting and embody an artist-driven spirit.

Their charm lies especially in crafting chill tracks.

They may look relaxed, but their cool, effortless performances actually hide how challenging the songs are to sing—the members’ skill is truly impressive.

A unit that debuted in 2016 and has been releasing one hit after another.

Their danceable tracks overflow with wild energy—pay special attention to the rap part by Yuto, a Japanese member from Nagano Prefecture! You’ll also be moved by the powerful vocals of Jinho, the oldest member who worked as a vocal trainer at their agency before debut, and the leader Hui.

MiracleGOT7

“Miracle” is a song by 7GOT, a seven-member South Korean male idol group that has even topped the Billboard World chart.

The acoustic, gentle sound—featuring strings and piano—is easy on the ears.

It’s the kind of track that can quickly soothe your mind when you want to relax, such as before going to sleep.

Event HorizonYounha

There are times when a breakup leaves you feeling down, right? In moments like that, I recommend listening to “Event Horizon.” It’s a song by YOUNHA, a singer who enjoys great popularity in Japan.

The track is a gentle, encouraging ballad for those who are feeling worn out.

The album it appears on, End Theory, features many songs with celestial themes.

And “Event Horizon” refers to the spaceship that appears in the movie.

Oh!GGGirls’ Generation

Oh!GGGirls' Generation

Released in 2018.

It’s the debut single of Girls’ Generation’s sub-unit, Girls’ Generation-Oh!GG.

The members are Taeyeon, Sunny, Hyoyeon, Yuri, and Yoona.

The Japanese translation means “Touch me a little.” Unlike the cute and poppy image of SNSD up to now, this one gives off a much cooler vibe.

The lyrics sharply express a girlfriend’s candid frustration with a boyfriend who won’t give her much attention.
