[K-POP] Korean Songs You’ll Want to Sing at Karaoke: All-Time Popular Hits (81–90)
FanfareTwice
A classic, catchy cheer song that shines with TWICE’s signature upbeat energy.
Among their Japanese tracks, this one is especially beloved and a must-pick for karaoke! While the pitch is high, the overall range is relatively narrow, giving it that familiar Japanese-pop feel that makes it easy to jump into.
It should be especially easy to sing for people with higher voices or those confident in their singing.
Above all, the super groovy rhythm makes it perfect for getting the crowd hyped! Splitting the parts like the members’ line distribution would make it even more fun to sing together.
웨이백홈SHAUN
A relaxed, laid-back track Sean released in 2018.
Its mellow vibe feels so good.
It sings about the joy of reuniting with a loved one after a long journey, with a slightly wistful yet warm atmosphere.
It would fit perfectly for a resort getaway too—you’d probably end up singing it if your accommodation has karaoke.
Whether with someone you like, with friends, or on your own.
Just let the sound carry you and enjoy singing in your own way! In karaoke rankings, it held 17th place on JOYSOUND in 2019, and climbed to 8th in the first half of 2020, showing its enduring popularity.
WA DA DAKep1er
Kep1er’s “WA DA DA” is my top pick to get the crowd hyped.
Released in early 2022, it became a huge hit and really blew up in Japan through TikTok and other social media! The edgy rap parts and pulsing groove could even transform the atmosphere on the spot.
The chorus packs a punch too, highlighting the song’s cute charm.
Singing it is sure to put you in a great mood! It’s also a top recommendation because you can get pumped watching the members’ high-energy performance footage, and it’s easy for everyone to dance along and have fun together.
응급실IZI
This is a song by a band called Izi that debuted in 2005, and it was included on the soundtrack of the drama “Delightful Girl Choon-Hyang.” The band doesn’t seem to have been very active afterward, but this 2005 release is still a frequently sung ballad at karaoke.
Because of that, some people say they know the song but don’t know the singer.
It’s a classic ballad—a poignant breakup song from a male perspective, essentially saying “Don’t leave me behind.” It’s the kind of song you sing with your heart rather than technical prowess, so take your time listening closely and then give it a try.
Hype boyNewJeans
An emotional love song that expresses a yearning so strong that every day turns monochrome without someone to have feelings for.
It’s a track by NewJeans, a leading figure among 4th-generation girl groups that shines with a fresh, unprecedented charm, and it ranked 6th in the 2023 JOYSOUND first-half K-POP category.
The R&B-tinged melody, reminiscent of Western pop, is easy on the ears and irresistibly singable.
Beyond its huge popularity, it’s very much a vocal-driven song, which makes it highly recommended for karaoke as well.
NewJeans are an emblem of aspiration too, and there’s something to admire about casually nailing this refined song.
Perfect NightLE SSERAFIM
An English single released in October 2023 by LE SSERAFIM, a rising star in K-pop.
It’s a lively track that captures a carefree girls’ night out with an upbeat rhythm.
The exhilaration of spending a night with friends is conveyed through refreshing vocals and a catchy melody.
Known as a collaboration with the video game Overwatch 2, it became a long-running hit that charted for an extended period and sparked buzz in multiple countries.
With its approachable melody and English lyrics, it’s a song you’ll want to try at karaoke.
Perfect for when you want to hype things up with friends or switch up your mood.

F*ck My LifeSEVENTEEN
The song I want to introduce as a moving, uplifting anthem is “F*ck My Life.” It’s the first track on the mini-album “FML.” In the beginning, it conveys anger toward the world and oneself with rather intense words, while in the latter half it shifts to a more positive mindset.
It’s a somewhat powerful ballad, so it’s also recommended for those who want to show off their vocal strength.
Plus, the intonation is clear, making it easy to sing even for those who aren’t used to Korean songs.
