K-pop pumps out new music like a beast, and with the industry oversaturated with songs, it’s no wonder that some otherwise amazing tracks fall by the wayside. Here are 5 K-pop gems that might have slipped under your radar:
“Y” – MBLAQ
From the breathy beginning up to the hypnotic chorus, “Y” grabs your attention and holds on all the way through. This song by the now-defunct MBLAQ also packs a lot of nostalgia factor.
“Queen” – HISTORY
BTS might have popularized the strong hip-hop image, but let’s not forget the HISTORY also had a hand in the game with this powerful hit.
“What U” – SPEED
An off-shoot of the co-ed idol survival program “Co-Ed School,” SPEED made Heelys cool again with this dance practice version of “What U.”
“No No No” – Apink
This feel-good bubblegum pop track made Apink’s popularity balloon after its release, and years later, it’s still a girl group classic.
“Black and White” – G.Na
G.Na hasn’t been very active in K-pop as of late, but we’ll never forget that she gave us hits like “Black and White.”
