K-pop You’ll Want to Dance to at the School Festival! Easy, Hype Dance Numbers [2026] (21–30)
Next Levelaespa
Debuting in 2020 as a girl group launched by SM Entertainment, aespa is a four-member female group that has gained popularity for its multifaceted musicality—true to their concept of “meeting an avatar that is another self and experiencing a new world”—and the members’ high skill level.
As you’d expect from an SM Entertainment group, their highly technical dance performances are very cool and impressive; some people may have wanted to try covering them but given up, thinking they’d be too difficult.
The song introduced here, “Next Level,” was released in 2021 and, as of 2024, has reached 290 million views on YouTube—one of their hit tracks that helped propel their breakthrough.
It was also popular for dance challenge videos at the time, and the choreography is relatively approachable and easy to imitate, so it’s recommended.
A hallmark of their songs is a section where the vibe shifts dramatically partway through, and the dance feel changes along with it, so try practicing with that point in mind!
Fighting (Feat. Lee Young Ji)BSS (SEVENTEEN)
For those who want to put on a performance that energizes the audience, “Fighting (Feat.
Lee Young Ji)” is also a great pick.
This song is a collaboration between the boy group BSS (SEVENTEEN) and rapper Lee Young Ji.
Its lyrics cheer on people who are doing their best in their everyday lives.
The choreography matches the theme, evoking cheerleading.
It also features moves—like high-fives—that are only possible when performing with friends, which is another highlight.

MiracleNCT DREAM
NCT DREAM, a sub-unit of the popular K-pop group NCT, originally had the concept of being a group limited to teenage members, but the graduation system has since been abolished and they are now a seven-member group that’s hugely popular here in Japan as well.
In June 2024, they held their first dome tour in Japan, which was a huge success and still fresh in our memories.
Their catchy songs seem perfect as dance tracks for school festivals, don’t they? This time, I’d like to introduce “Miracle” as a song recommended for beginners.
In fact, this track is a cover of a song by their seniors, SUPER JUNIOR.
With its bittersweet melody and relatively relaxed tempo, it’s easy to dance to as long as you grasp the basic techniques.
The members themselves have also released a dance video, so take your time watching it and do your best to recreate it well!
HAPPY HAPPYTwice
TWICE is a girls’ group with a unique pop sound and fans not only across Asia but around the world.
Their 2019 release “HAPPY HAPPY” is recommended for anyone looking for colorful K-pop that’s easy to dance to at school festivals and cultural events.
You’ll swoon over their irresistibly cute vocals as each part unfolds.
The bubbly, rhythmic sound is perfect for a festive atmosphere.
If you’ve ever thought, “I want to dance like an idol!” be sure to check it out!
FanfareTwice
Cute, fun, and easy to dance to—that’s TWICE’s “Fanfare.” Released in 2020 by the group that made waves with the “TT Dance,” this track will light up any school or cultural festival.
The choreography uses lots of arm movements, so start practicing those first; after that, just add in the footwork while planning your formations.
It might look difficult, but if you carefully follow TWICE’s moves as you practice, you’ll be fine.
It’s the perfect song for anyone who can’t tackle complex choreography but still wants to put on a joyful, energetic performance!
고민보다 GoBTS
BTS commands immense popularity and influence not only in their home country and Japan but also around the world.
With all members having begun their mandatory military service in 2023, fans are eagerly awaiting an early return to activities.
Their choreography—renowned for its extraordinary synchronization and intensity—is not easy to imitate, but a relatively beginner-friendly song to try is “Go Go” (Korean title: “고민보다 Go”).
Also known in Japanese as “悩むよりGo,” this track is included on their 2017 mini-album LOVE YOURSELF 承 ‘Her’.
Compared to many of their other songs, the movements are relatively relaxed and don’t demand as much aggressive power, making it easier to identify each motion and practice.
That said, it features a lot of isolation, so you’ll want to have the basics of dance down.
There’s also a Halloween-themed dance video performed by the members themselves on YouTube, so it’s fun to match the costumes and dance along!
WA DA DAKep1er
“Very Very Very” is sure to get everyone hyped if you try it with friends.
It’s a track from I.O.I’s second mini album and is well-known in Japan as an assignment song on the audition show “Nizi Project.” The lyrics depict the push-and-pull of romance between a man and a woman.
The choreography features many soft, fluid movements for a girly feel.
In particular, the chorus move where you sway your head from side to side is guaranteed to stand out when performed by a group.
