Daydreamj-hope
The music video begins under a blazing, scorching sun.
It carries a vibe reminiscent of Middle Eastern pop with a hint of searing heat, blended with a house music feel.
He is J-HOPE—one of the members of BTS, the group that came to represent South Korea in 2018—and an artist who thrives as a solo singer as well as a composer.
This track is distinctive, isn’t it? With its dynamic shifts in rhythm and melody, clever reuse of samples, and a clear concept, the theme stands out, making it very accessible music.
All Minef(x)
It’s an uptempo EDM track by the girl group f(x).
The brisk, straightforward rhythm stands out, and as the song progresses the sound becomes increasingly vivid, reaching a peak at the final key change.
The lyrics express that heart-bursting feeling of being in love, like you’ve captured the whole world.
It’s also interesting that the music video unfolds through the members’ self-shot footage.
It’s perfect as a summer BGM.
DarlingGirl’s Day
A track released in 2014.
It’s a catchy, super-cute summer tune crafted by Duble Sidekick.
The light, bouncy rhythm and bursting fun are just the absolute best! It’s refreshingly breezy, with a candy-like sweet-and-tangy vibe at the same time.
It portrays the feelings of a shy girl in love, and the way it’s expressed is just so wonderful it makes your heart flutter! When it’s hot, this song, “Darling,” makes me want to cool off.
It’s highly recommended for fans of pop songs, too!
BBoom BBoommomoland
A nine-member girl group that debuted in South Korea in 2016, with an explosively popular song released in January 2018.
It’s like a cute girl’s love-strategy song.
The dance is a bit different from other idols’—goofily cute—and before you know it, you end up hitting repeat.
They’re a highly addictive group.
What’s fun about them is the huge popularity of JooE, who’s also goofily cute (not a classic beauty) but dances her heart out and has a blast.
When you’re feeling down, go for MOMOLAND—highly recommended on hot summer days!
