Easy-to-Sing K-pop That Gets the Crowd Going at Karaoke [All Songs Japanese Versions] (1–10)
ELEVEN (Japanese ver.)ive
It was a massive hit in Korea and has been released in a Japanese version, so even K-pop beginners can handle the lyrics steadily.
I mostly remember hearing it on cable radio, and the chorus kind of stuck in my ears.
There are many places where the melody line is sharply cut, so the key is to keep the rhythm from slipping.
Since there are also bouncy rhythms, it helps to use your body well and keep a fine, precise pulse.
Also, the section before the chorus slows down, then it picks up speed from the chorus, so be careful not to rush the tempo.
If you consciously sing with a bright tone at all times, you can switch more easily without your pitch dropping, even when the rhythm or melody changes!
Love 119 -Japanese Ver.-RIIZE
The Japanese version of “Love 119” has been released.
It’s a song with a tempo and vocal range that are comfortable to sing, and although the same phrases and melodies repeat, making you think, “Is this a long song?”, it’s surprisingly short at 2 minutes 53 seconds.
Even first-time listeners of “Love 119” will likely find it easy to remember since it’s catchy and the melody isn’t difficult.
In particular, the chorus is structured to build excitement as more members join in, which can cause the tempo to speed up while singing.
Try to stay calm and keep your pace.
To lock the lyrics into the rhythm, taking finer counts at double-time should make it easier to sing!
WANNABEITZY
ITZY is a girl group that has gained popularity for their music focused on self-affirmation and woman power.
Their style embodies female strength, so they have many female fans and are popular in Japan as well.
Their song “WANNABE,” released in 2020, is one of the easier tracks to sing among their catalog.
The vocal range is mid A# to high E, which is quite narrow for a female vocal song, and overall it features a strong rap-oriented character, making it generally a very singable track.
Since there’s room to lower the key, if it feels high, don’t hesitate to drop it.
MY TREASURETREASURE
TREASURE is a 10-member boy group from YG.
While K-pop idols often lean heavily toward R&B and hip-hop, they incorporate those elements yet tend more toward electropop.
Their hit number “MY TREASURE” exemplifies this.
Positioned between hip-hop and R&B, it features a somewhat ennui-tinged vocal line.
In practice, there aren’t many parts that require extensive use of mixed voice; as long as you can sing up to the mid-to-high range, the vocal line is sufficiently achievable.
WA DA DAKep1er
A seven-member girls’ group, Kep1er.
They were originally formed as a project group active for only two and a half years, but due to their overwhelming popularity, they are still active today.
Their hit number “WA DA DA” is a prime example.
Released in 2022, it spans a slightly wide vocal range of mid1 F# to hi D#, but since the pitch movement is relatively gentle, it’s overall an easy song to sing.
It’s got an excellent groove, so be sure to add it to your repertoire.
FIESTAIZ*ONE
IZ*ONE is a 12-member Korean-Japanese girl group.
Known for their glamorous musical style, they’ve produced a string of hits with catchy melodies.
Among their works, a particularly recommended track is “FIESTA.” It has a somewhat synth-pop feel; while the chorus features slightly dramatic pitch changes, the verses and pre-chorus are quite straightforward.
If you set the key around the chorus, it’s a very singable song overall.
LOVE SCENARIOiKON
iKON is a boy group that showcases a wide musical range, from poignant heartbreak songs to tracks aimed at appealing to teens.
Their music is characterized by melodies rooted in hip-hop, and that distinctive style is clearly reflected in “LOVE SCENARIO.” Although this song features falsetto, the pitch movement within each phrase is relatively gentle, so it isn’t particularly difficult to sing.
If you adjust the key to make the falsetto easier, most men in their teens and twenties should be able to sing it without trouble.
It’s a crowd-pleaser with women, making it a great choice for livening up a group date.
LATATA(G)I-DLE
(G)I-DLE is a girl group known for its strong self-produced style.
It’s pronounced “jee idol.” Their track LATATA, released in 2018, features a somewhat Latin-influenced rhythm.
The pitch movement in the hook is relatively gentle, and most of the low-register sections are rap parts, so the range may feel narrower than the actual vocal range.
If you want a song that combines coolness with an infectious groove to hype up a karaoke session, be sure to add this one to your repertoire.
DolphinOH MY GIRL
OH MY GIRL is a six-member idol group formed in 2015.
Their music is rooted in orthodox K-pop, and they’ve gained popularity for their quintessential idol appeal.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Dolphin.
It has a slightly tropical house vibe, featuring a smooth, level vocal line without dramatic peaks.
The mixed-voice section right before the chorus can be a tricky spot, but since it doesn’t require belting, anyone should be able to sing it if they adjust to a suitable key.
Boy With LuvBTS
BTS is a boy group popular not only in South Korea but also in Japan and the United States.
It’s no exaggeration to say they helped create the current K-POP boom.
Among their works, the one I especially recommend as easy to sing and sure to get the crowd going is “Boy With Luv.” While it features prominent high notes characteristic of BTS songs, the vocal range falls into the relatively narrow mid1E to hiB, making it much easier to sing than it sounds.
If you slightly reduce your volume, it becomes easier to produce a mixed voice in the build-up sections, so keep that in mind while you sing.
