Fighting (feat. Lee Young Ji)BSS (SEVENTEEN)

The 13-member boy group SEVENTEEN includes a three-member unit called BSS (BooSeokSoon), made up of Hoshi, DK, and Seungkwan.

Their track “Fighting (feat.

Lee Young Ji)” features powerful, motivational lyrics that cheer on anyone giving their best—just like the title suggests.

The song also features Lee Young Ji, who became the first female rapper to win the popular Korean show High School Rapper 3.

Her rap, which bursts in during the song’s climactic latter half, delivers a punchy groove that completely flips the mood up to that point and grabs your heart in an instant.

It’s a top recommendation when you want to boost your motivation for studying, work, or anything else.

In the fall of 2023, the hip-hop track “Smoke (Prod.

Dynamicduo, Padi)” has become a hit in Korea.

It’s a song from the dance survival show Street Woman Fighter Season 2, which has become a social phenomenon, and it’s spreading on social media as a dance challenge.

Many K-pop idols, including BTS’s V, have joined in and boosted the hype.

Dynamicduo’s creative power and headstrong style shine through in the lyrics, and the cool rap by the popular female rapper Lee Young Ji stands out.

Since around the summer of 2023, “KIDDING” has been lighting up Korean charts like Melon.

It’s sung by the virtual idol group Isegye Idol and seems to be drawing attention in Japan within the VTuber community as well.

They debuted in 2021.

You can watch the cute characters dance, but what really stands out is the surprisingly natural, human-like cute pop sound.

It evokes the vibe from the era when Girls’ Generation and KARA were in the spotlight, and from the rise of groups like TWICE and GFRIEND.

It’s a simple, purely enjoyable, adorable song.

CRAZYLE SSERAFIM

The title track from LE SSERAFIM, a group from South Korea, released in August 2024 as part of their 4th mini album.

It features an EDM sound rooted in house music and, notably, their first attempt at voguing dance.

The lyrics, which celebrate free self-expression and a sense of liberation, are striking, and together with the addictive melody, they captivate listeners.

The repeated phrase “All the girls are girling girling” is also appealing.

The music video, which showcases performances in distinctive locations such as a public bathhouse and an aquarium, has been drawing attention as well.

It’s an energetic song perfect for when you want to take a step beyond the everyday.

ETANewJeans

Get Up is an EP released in 2023 by the Korean girl group NewJeans.

The title track, ETA, is an irresistible number featuring their characteristically expressive vocals and a rhythmic groove.

Notably, the track has a calm, chill-out vibe.

While K-pop often leans toward busy, densely arranged productions, their track offers a mellow, nighttime mood that’s wonderfully pleasant to listen to.

LALALALAStray Kids

Stray Kids “Rock (樂) (LALALALA)” M/V
LALALALAStray Kids

Stray Kids is a boy group that’s been exploding in popularity worldwide and in Japan, even earning their first appearance on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen at the end of 2023.

This track, which colors their November 2023 album “樂-STAR,” is a rock tune bursting with powerful appeal.

The pleasing cadence of the line endings makes you want to hum along, and the surge of momentum that kicks in at the chorus is exhilarating.

It’s got that signature Stray Kids addictiveness, too.

Despite its hardness, it feels approachable, and the choreography featuring hand-wave motions has also become a hot topic.

It’s an anthem that cheers you on to cut loose, making it a great party song as well.

A truly outstanding classic whose sheer fun perfectly embodies its title!

A track included on the 2nd full album “2” by the five-member South Korean girl group (G)I-DLE.
