BANG BANG BANGBIGBANG

In 2015, BIGBANG—renowned among K-pop boy groups for their outstanding presence and quality—made a comeback after three years with a project called MADE SERIES.

As it was their last promotion with all members before military service, both the members and fans were especially fired up.

Among the tracks, this song stood out for its hype and power.

It’s a high-energy song that keeps you pumped from the very beginning without any breaks.

The title “BANG BANG BANG” is the onomatopoeia for a gunshot, and it also appears in the lyrics.

This is the Japanese version of the love song “What is Love?” by TWICE, a constantly evolving girl group popular with a wide audience.

It’s a catchy, song-focused track from the period when they incorporated social media trends, making it one of the easier TWICE songs to sing.

The original Korean version is also very approachable, which is great.

Its positive message and sweet vibe are super cute.

It’s perfect for karaoke as a couple, and also recommended as a song that will happily lighten the mood!

It’s a cute song, very Red Velvet, that likens feelings for someone special—the thrill of a crush and love—to a “red flavor.” With adorable motifs like strawberries and candy and a summery, popping sound, it’s sure to be a hit at karaoke.

Be sure to sing the chorus together and have fun!

When it comes to idols who broke out from Korea and succeeded globally, it’s undoubtedly BTS.

これは、彼らの金字塔的なアルバム『LOVE YOURSELF 轉 “Tear”』からのシングルで、彼らを初めてNo.に到達した韓国アイドルにしました。

1 on the Billboard charts.

It’s a song that perfectly embodies BTS, who fight on the world stage with their music as their weapon—a declaration that “we’re here to make music.” No matter how popular they become, I hope they never lose sight of themselves and keep staying true to what makes BTS, BTS.

When it comes to K-pop, many people probably think of the horse-riding dance in “Gangnam Style,” right? This is a track from Psy’s 2017 release “4X2=8,” the artist behind “Gangnam Style.” It’s a fresh, fun song overflowing with fluttering hearts and excitement.

Psy’s songs are addictive in both rhythm and melody, and they’re a blast—so it never hurts to master one for karaoke!

Speaking of Korean idols who broke out in 2018, it was unquestionably MOMOLAND.

My first impression was, “Huh? This group?! Are the members even cute?” But this song—mixing a retro vibe with current trends—was irresistibly bright and addictive, and member JooE’s personality really stood out, propelling them to success.

Anyway, it’s a fun track you can sing and dance to on vibe alone, in both Korean and Japanese.

The title ‘Bboom Bboom’ is the same way—it’s fun to enjoy the words as sounds, and it’s extremely easy to sing.

VERY NICE(아주 NICE)SEVENTEEN

VERY NICE(아주 NICE)SEVENTEEN

This SEVENTEEN song is a peppy, clean, and refreshing love song that perfectly captures the vibe of “the quintessential boy idol.” The title ‘아주 NICE’ is read as “Aju Nice” and appears repeatedly in the chorus.

In Korean, ‘aju’ means “very” or “super.” If you remember this word first, you’ll find yourself enjoying the song even more.
