[2026] K-pop Christmas Songs: Korean Tracks That Color December (21–30)
I’m all earsTaeyeon
A deeply moving ballad sung by Taeyeon, the main vocalist of Girls’ Generation.
It was included as the closing track on the album “This Christmas – Winter is Coming,” released in the winter of 2017.
The lyrics are truly warm, as if gently listening to someone’s pain and assuring them, “I’ll stay by your side through the night.” It overflows with a kindness that feels like wrapping a shivering body in a blanket.
There may be no flashy production, but Taeyeon’s delicate vocals—so nuanced you can almost hear her breathing—stand out, and every listen brings you close to tears.
About a month after its release, a special video for the song was also unveiled.
On nights when you’re going through something hard, or when you just want someone to listen, play this softly.
It will surely make your heart feel lighter.
Merry XmasBoA
A Christmas classic by BoA, well-loved in Japan too.
Because it’s in Japanese, it lets you feel the world of the song more up close.
“Meri Kuri” sings about the happiness of being with a loved one, and the wording of the lyrics is truly beautiful.
Through music, it offers encouragement; the falling snow seems meant to bring lovers closer; it celebrates the fun of shopping together.
Those relatable expressions fit perfectly with BoA’s voice back when she was in her teens.
It warms both heart and body on a cold winter’s night.
Last KissTHE BOYZ
A heartwarming Christmas song from THE BOYZ.
As their final work with IST Entertainment, this piece features moving lyrics that evoke both farewell and a new beginning.
Released on December 2, 2024, the track was unveiled as part of their annual holiday single series.
Set to a melody that captures the warmth and atmosphere of winter, the voices of the eleven members gently resonate.
Marking a milestone as THE BOYZ embark on a new chapter, this song is sure to remain in the hearts of fans.
Funky Glitter ChristmasNMIXX
“Funky Glitter Christmas,” a song that sings of a Christmas overflowing with happiness around the world, was released in 2022 by the Korean girl group NMIXX.
Opening with spoken-style lines that feel like the start of a party, it unfolds into rich chorus work set to a danceable beat.
Its lyrics and melody convey the joy of celebrating a special day with loved ones—family, friends, and partners.
Why not enjoy this irresistibly groovy dance track during the Christmas season?
The StarEXO
A stylish R&B-style Christmas song.
The key point is that it doesn’t use jingles or strings.
It has a mature, cool finish, but the content is quite romantic.
A dazzling star shining on a winter night—that refers to a single woman.
She isn’t looking at just one man.
Even so, it feels as if her gaze is fixed only on me.
You could call it a love that’s out of reach.
