TT -Japanese ver.-Twice
You just can’t leave out K-pop! Personally, I think K-pop gets everyone the most hyped when taking purikura.
The vivid, cute visuals, the catchy songs, and easy-to-learn pop dances—lots of young women probably love K-pop, right? This song made waves with its “TT pose” in the chorus and became the catalyst for TWICE’s popularity in Japan.
The lyrics vividly depict the confusion and emotional swings a woman feels when she makes a move on someone she likes.

The song “Soda” sticks in your head with its striking, rhyming phrases.
You can’t help but find yourself humming it—even while doodling on a purikura photo.
This track is by sumika, a four-piece rock band.
They’re known for music that’s rock but not too intense, with a gentle, uplifting pop feel.
“Soda” also has that buoyant, feel-good sound, but in fact, it’s a breakup song.
It’s also a song where feelings for someone you love grow stronger.
BawereIZ*ONE
The song “Beware,” which plays as the doodling BGM on the hugely popular purikura machine Q Nana Percent known for its perfectly effortless vibe! It’s sung by IZ*ONE, a 12-member Japanese-Korean girl group, and was included as the lead track on their first Japanese album released in 2020.
When you take purikura, you definitely want cute music to boost your mood, right? This pop number lifts the energy during doodle time, helping you lock in precious memories on your perfectly posed photos.
Cheerful goodbyeIZ*ONE
“Goodbye in High Spirits” by IZ*ONE, the idol group born from a Korean audition program.
It’s a song about using feminine strength to overcome the pain of heartbreak! No matter how messy the breakup was, listening to this track somehow turns it into a sparkling, drama-like memory, doesn’t it? When you part ways with a lover, you really come to appreciate the importance of those strong friends who stay by your side and cheer you up.
With friends to share your sadness, you can get through anything! It’s the perfect song to play when you’re taking purikura with your best friends!
I Really Like YouCarly Rae Jepsen
This one song I want to dedicate to girls in love is Carly Rae Jepsen’s “I Really Like You”! It’s a track that sings about the frustrating feelings of a one-sided crush.
Speaking of Carly Rae Jepsen, her cute love songs like “Call Me Maybe” are the best, right? It’s no exaggeration to call her the epitome of girl power—there’s no singer who speaks for a girl’s heart better than she does! Use the moment to subtly hint at your feelings to the guy you like!
ColorsIZ*ONE
This is a song released in 2018 by IZ*ONE, a joint Japanese-Korean idol group.
It sings about the desire to be with someone you love and the beauty of being in love.
It resonates with both women who have a crush and those who have a boyfriend, making it a love song that brings happiness.
It’s not an upbeat, high-energy track, but one you can calmly focus to while shooting.
The lyrics evoke a beautiful blue sky, which can lift your spirits.
If you’re shooting with friends who like IZ*ONE, definitely use it as background music.
Go! Go! Even more!A Pink
The string-based arrangement gives it a somewhat J-pop-like vibe! Apink’s hugely popular K-pop track “More GO! GO!” is a must-listen for every girl who wants to make the most of summer! There are times when work or school keeps you so busy that you feel like, “I haven’t done anything fun at all!” When that happens, put this song on and start planning your summer vacation! It’s an unbeatable track that fuses J-pop’s cute elements and beats with the cool, heavy bass of K-pop.
