ABCDNAYEON
“ABCD,” a dance track that’s gone viral on TikTok with its rhythmic beat, was released by Nayeon—who also shines as a member of TWICE—in June 2024.
Its bright, up-tempo sound resonates with energy, matching lyrics that highlight the importance of living true to yourself.
Her vocals, delivering positive choral lines, evoke a confident, self-assured mood.
Paired with her cool, striking choreography, it’s a number that fuses dance music and pop.
Its catchy appeal makes you want to listen with friends, and it’s also recommended for lifting your spirits when you’re feeling down.
HOTSEVENTEEN
“HOT” is a track that’s used across a variety of videos on TikTok.
It’s a song by the boy group SEVENTEEN, included on their fourth album, “Face the Sun.” The track has a driving feel without being overly intense, which makes it easy to match with many types of posts—hence its widespread use.
By the way, SEVENTEEN’s official account has also shared behind-the-scenes footage from the music video shoot.
Be sure to check that out as well.
DolphinOH MY GIRL
OH MY GIRL’s “Dolphin” became a long-running hit despite being just an album track, thanks to its popularity as background music on TikTok.
The “splash dance,” where you move your hands like waves, also got everyone hyped.
No matter how many times you hear it, the repeating hook in the chorus is seriously catchy.
It’s an adorable song about the butterflies you get when you unexpectedly run into your crush on a day you weren’t prepared.
It perfectly balances OMG’s cuteness and playfulness, while packing in the approachable charm that only a group can deliver.
Talk that TalkTwice
TWICE is a globally popular girl group.
Their recent world tour is still fresh in our memories.
The lead single from their 11th album is “Talk that Talk.” In the song, there’s choreography where they use their hands to spell out the word LOVE to match the lyrics.
Videos recreating that part have gone viral on TikTok.
The track also stands out for its catchy melody and strong vocals.
I hope you’ll give it a listen and experience how great it is.
MANSAESEVENTEEN
SEVENTEEN, whose recent dome tour in Japan is still fresh in our memories, have a track I highly recommend for enjoying the vocal skills of all 13 members: “MANSAE.” You’ve probably seen this song a lot in TikTok dance videos.
In particular, videos that recreate the chorus—featuring the memorable side steps—have gone viral.
The choreography is relatively easy to imitate, so give it a try.
There are also videos that break down the moves, so it might be helpful to use those as references.
