K-pop unrequited love songs you’ll totally relate to! Tracks that won’t let the heartache and excitement stop

Song request(신청곡) (Feat. SUGA of BTS)Isora (I Sora)

[M/V] LeeSoRa(이소라) – Song request(신청곡) (Feat. SUGA of BTS)

This is a love ballad by Lee Sora, a veteran Korean singer whose trademark is a closely cropped very short hairstyle.

It’s a sad love song about turning on the radio on a sleepless, solitary night and making a song request.

“Hey DJ, play me something fun so I can smile,” is one of its strikingly poignant lines.

The track also features SUGA from BTS, who is active as a music producer as well.

[MV] BOL4(볼빨간사춘기) _ Some(썸 탈꺼야)

BOL4 radiates charm with solid talent, rich musicality, and stylish flair.

This song from their 2017 debut mini album “Red Diary Page.1” has a cute, sweet vibe that captures “some”—the stage between friends and lovers.

BOL4’s songs are so comfortable you can’t help but hum along.

You want to confess your feelings, but you’re shy… That fluttery, anxious mood overlaps perfectly, giving it 1000% sweet-and-sour feels.

If you’re ready to take a step forward from a one-sided crush, this one will resonate even more!

Fall in LoveGFRIEND

GFRIEND – Fall In Love, 여자친구 – 물들어요 [정오의 희망곡 김신영입니다] 20160713

A track from the 2016 album LOL.

It’s an exceptionally poppy, bright number that makes a blue sky float into your mind as you listen.

I never believed in love at first sight, but this song overflows with that happy feeling of falling for someone and having your emotions soar! It also has that adorable quality that ties into GFRIEND’s group name—the wish to be a beloved girlfriend from a guy’s perspective.

Above all, the lyrics are truly wonderful.

The way they capture a fluttering heart is so beautiful it makes you swoon.

It’s a song that really stays close to those tingling, excited feelings.

And the fact that it can be read as mutual love is a nice touch, too!

STAYBLACKPINK

BLACKPINK – ‘STAY’ M/V

BLACKPINK has now become a charismatic artist drawing attention from around the world.

“STAY” is a medium-tempo acoustic pop track from 2016’s SQUARE TWO, a beautiful song that resonates with aching feelings of love and has enjoyed unwavering support since their early days.

It’s wonderful to have someone who makes you feel this way, isn’t it? “I don’t ask for much—just stay by my side.” The song embraces that sentiment.

Its slightly languid yet somehow bright atmosphere may help ease your anxieties.

This track can suit not only someone who feels out of reach like a flower on a high peak, but also a love where feelings are starting to drift apart.

It’s a profound love song that can be overlaid onto many forms of unrequited love.
