WaveWaySAY MY NAME
A song by Say My Name, a newly debuted seven-member girl group from Korea in October 2024.
It’s a hope-filled track about overcoming days that undulate like waves.
The kitschy sound and breezy melody leave a strong impression, with a distinctive sine-wave tone adding color throughout the piece.
The lyrics capture the feeling of riding the “waves” and moving forward while having fun.
It became a hot topic, with the music video surpassing 10 million views.
It’s a fresh, optimistic song befitting the group’s launch, led by former IZ*ONE member Hitomi Honda.
Blending elements of indie pop and electropop, its light, buoyant beat and melody are perfect for when you want to feel that weekend sense of freedom.
NEMONEMOYENA
A breezy electropop number by the popular Korean singer Yena.
It’s the title track of her third single, released in September 2024.
It uses the motif of a “square” to express the frustrations of love, reflecting modern dating realities.
While the sound is bright and poppy, the lyrics carry complex emotions.
The charm lies in the gap between Yena’s cuteness and the intricacies of romance.
It might be the perfect song when you need a boost of energy or when you’re wrestling with matters of the heart.
The dance challenge has also become a hot topic, so it could be fun to look it up on social media.
People Pt.2Agust D, IU
Suga, a member of the seven-member boy idol group BTS.
His solo release as Agust D, “People Pt.2,” is a cool number featuring IU, a hugely popular singer-songwriter in Korea.
The medium-tempo, R&B-like track pairs beautifully with Agust D’s impressive vocal prowess as he switches between rap and singing—it’s truly moving.
Adding IU’s vocals enriches the song even further, giving it an even more nuanced and flavorful atmosphere!
Kitschive
IVE is a six-member girl group.
Their 2022 release “After LIKE” was a huge hit, and they even performed at the 73rd NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen that same year.
Their 2023 track “Kitsch” takes a more aggressive turn compared to their earlier image.
Its standout feature is the drop in the chorus, a technique similar to what BLACKPINK used in “Pink Venom.” Be sure to check out IVE’s new song, which taps into the latest K-pop trends!
Super TunaJIN
This fun track by Jin, an artist from South Korea, stands out with its powerful rhythm and lively melody.
A devoted fishing enthusiast, Jin drew inspiration from his hobby to create this piece.
Originally released in December 2021, the song was re-released as a full version in October 2024.
Set to a light, trot-inspired groove, the lyrics brim with the joy and humor of fishing, making them especially appealing.
Beloved by fans around the world, it even reached No.
1 on the iTunes charts in 57 countries.
It’s the perfect song for a quick mood boost or to enjoy with friends.
DIVETwice
While keeping its pop and catchy charm intact, this track conveys a sense of fresh challenge.
It’s the lead song from their fifth full-length album in Japan, “DIVE.” The water-themed concept feels innovative, and the visuals—expressed through mermaid-like costumes—are striking.
The lyrics, which convey deep love, resonate emotionally.
Released in July 2024 to celebrate the 7th anniversary of their Japan debut, this work is likely to hold special meaning for fans as well.
It seems like the perfect song for making summer memories.
Say My NameSay Yes
The Korean online audition program BOYS PLANET.
From its artist battle came Say Yes!’s “Say My Name.” This song is a pleasant number that blends their fresh voices with an upbeat mood.
As a synth-pop track with a swinging groove, its irresistibly dance-inducing feel is a major draw.
The members’ performances in school uniforms are also cool, so be sure to check out the videos on YouTube!
