사랑은 늘 도망가임영웅 Lim Young Woong

[M/V] 임영웅 – 사랑은 늘 도망가 :: 신사와 아가씨(Young Lady and Gentleman) OST Part.2
사랑은 늘 도망가임영웅 Lim Young Woong

Love Always Slips Away, which became a big hit in 2021, is a cover by Lim Young-woong—who won the audition show Mr.

Trot and became a popular singer—of the original 2011 song by singer-songwriter Lee Moon-se.

It’s a gentle ballad that portrays a bittersweet love.

The relaxed pace, minimal ups and downs, and relatively clear Korean diction make it highly recommended for singing along.

It’s perfect for when you want to calm down, and it’s an easy classic to try even if you’re not used to Korean songs.

보고싶은 날엔박지헌

When you think of Korea, you think of richly emotional ballads.

One such song is the mid-tempo “On Days I Miss You,” released in 2007.

It’s a solo track by Park Ji-heon, the leader of the popular R&B group V.O.S, known for their powerful vocals.

The love lyrics evoke a melodrama-like nostalgia that tightens your chest.

The chorus features a consistent ending sound that gives it a rhythmic, singable melody with an addictive quality.

It might not be an exaggeration to call it a top choice for a song you’d want to sing when you’re overwhelmed with longing.

What Even Is Love?So Hyonjin, Yu Sun’u

What Even Is Love?So Hyonjin, Yu Sun'u

Seo Hyun-jin and Yoo Seung-woo’s “What Is Love” was used as an OST for the drama “Another Miss Oh.” With its charming melody and lyrics, it’s a fun song to sing and a great pick for karaoke.

There isn’t much pitch variation, so it’s easy to sing.

위아래EXID

[EXID(이엑스아이디)] ‘위아래’ (UP&DOWN) MV
위아래EXID

A signature song that shot EXID to stardom by climbing back up the charts.

It was also chosen as their debut single in Japan.

The sound has that distinct EXID trickiness that’s so appealing.

Since EXID focuses on making songs easy to sing along to, it feels familiar and accessible—the “wi, are” hook in the chorus is something everyone will want to hum, and it’s sure to lift the mood of any crowd! LE’s rap part is admittedly tough, but enjoy it with the Japanese version or just go with the flow and have fun!

무조건박상철

[HIT] 가요무대-박상철(Park Sangcheol) – 무조건.20141208
무조건박상철

It’s a Korean enka-style trot song released by Park Sang-chul in 2005.

It’s super rhythmic, catchy, and really addictive! The lyrics sing about feelings for a loved one being unconditional, and you can catch a glimpse of a charming side, too.

It makes you want to hum along, and I’m sure it creates a fun atmosphere! In fact, Crazy Ken Band even did a cover in Japan.

In 2020, parody versions of the song were popular as well.

Overall, it’s bright and upbeat—a track that lifts your spirits even during tough times.

CatallenaORANGE CARMEL

Want to hype things up with a comical song? Then I recommend “Catallena.” It’s a 2014 track by Orange Caramel, a sub-unit of After School formed in 2010 that drew attention for their unique style.

Once you hear it, you won’t be able to get it out of your head—and the music video’s goofiness is irresistible.

The title means “someone you want to get close to.” So sing it together with someone you’re interested in or want to get closer to and have fun! The choreography and melody are cute and easy to pick up, too!
