EXO Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)
Baby Don’t CryEXO1rank/position

EXO is a boy group that presents a global world with a planet-themed concept.
This song is included on their 2013 first album, XOXO (KISS & HUG), which became a million seller.
It’s a love song that draws you in with a heartrending piano line, lyrical melody, and unison vocals.
Its tumultuous beauty leaves a strong impression.
Inspired by The Little Mermaid, the track overlaps with an unfulfilled love that brings tears.
Even if the tragic ending is unavoidable, the heartfelt wish is that the one you love won’t be sad.
Love ShotEXO2rank/position

The title track of the repackage of their fifth full-length album, released in 2018, “DON’T MESS UP MY TEMPO,” is “Love Shot.” Chen, known for his captivating high notes, and Chanyeol, the group’s rapper, participated in writing the lyrics.
Centered on the theme of the “meaning of love,” the song is filled with the mature charm of EXO.
TempoEXO3rank/position

EXO debuted simultaneously in South Korea and China in 2014, and then made their Japanese debut in 2015.
Their “Tempo” is the lead track from their fifth album, DON’T MESS UP MY TEMPO, released in 2018.
The flow from the catchy vocal melodies into the powerful hook never gets old no matter how many times you listen! The mid-song break where it’s just the vocals also feels very fresh and really sticks in your head.
It’s a thrilling song with rapid-fire shifts, and once you get hooked, there’s no getting out!
GrowlEXO4rank/position

EXO is a K-pop group that’s also popular in China.
They specialize in dance-pop that incorporates R&B and hip-hop, and their high-level performances have earned them strong acclaim.
Among their works, one song that became especially popular is Growl.
It’s not explosively hyped like a BIGBANG track, but its R&B-infused sound will definitely lift your mood.
Be sure to give it a listen.
MonsterEXO5rank/position

Songs with a mysterious vibe are perfect for Halloween, aren’t they? One I’d like to introduce is “Monster.” It’s a track by the boy group EXO, included on their album EX’ACT.
The song portrays a monster manipulating the person he longs for and eventually claiming them.
You could interpret it as horror-themed, or as a depiction of pure love.
It’s also an up-tempo hip-hop song, so it seems great for getting everyone hyped up.
Sing For YouEXO6rank/position

A heartwarming ballad perfect for winter nights has arrived.
Released in December 2015 by the popular Korean group EXO, this song is distinguished by the gentle tones of acoustic guitar and the members’ soft vocals.
Its lyrics, which portray a bittersweet longing and the desire to convey feelings that words alone can’t express, resonate deeply.
Included on the album “Sing For You – Winter Special Album, 2015,” it’s an ideal track for the Christmas season.
Shortly after its release, it climbed to high positions on Korean music charts and captured fans’ hearts.
If you’re looking for a song to play on a cold night when you’re thinking of someone, this is a perfect choice.
CALL ME BABYEXO7rank/position

When it comes to K-pop boy groups, their name is guaranteed to come up—they’re extremely well-known and popular.
They’re beloved not only in Korea but across Asia.
Recently, each member has been expanding their career by appearing in dramas and films.
This song is one of their hits.
It’s overall a high-pitched piece, but it does an excellent job of showcasing their talent.
UniverseEXO8rank/position

Released in December 2017, this is a ballad that overwhelms you with EXO’s beautiful vocals.
Although it’s included on an album themed around winter, its worldview—depicting the diverse, complex emotions of “love”—also resonates with autumn’s nostalgic mood.
Days when you argue, days when you laugh together—each one is a priceless treasure.
Even when you grow apart, there’s a longing to make things right, and the grand, cosmic metaphors in the lyrics convey feelings for their fans as well.
With its warm atmosphere, it’s a song you’ll want to listen to slowly while sipping your favorite drink.
The First SnowEXO9rank/position

Like the first snowfall that heralds the arrival of winter, this song leaves a lasting impression with its beautiful melody and lyrics that seep into the heart.
EXO’s powerful yet delicate vocals brilliantly convey the bittersweet feelings of longing for a lost love.
Included in the winter special mini-album “Miracles in December,” released in December 2013, the track has continued to be cherished over time, even reaching No.
1 on Melon’s Top 100 chart in 2023, ten years after its release.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a heartwarming ballad perfect for the Christmas season.
Call Me BaybeEXO10rank/position

It’s a dance number included in LOVE ME RIGHT, released in 2015.
It’s brimming with the overwhelming coolness of EXO as a super performance group! Their dancing is wonderful—fluid and gentle, yet powerful.
Personally, I find the steps somehow fun to watch!
