[K-POP] Korean songs you’ll want to sing at karaoke: All-time favorite hits (41–50)
STAYBLACKPINK
Many women want to try singing BLACKPINK’s cute yet cool songs.
Jennie’s and Lisa’s rap parts raise the difficulty, but since this is a ballad, it might be easier to sing than their other tracks.
Overall, the chorus and other sections have very catchy, easy-to-understand melodies.
You can study and understand each word as you practice, or if you just want to sing, don’t rely only on romanized lyrics—first, listen carefully to the pronunciation with your own ears! There are sounds that are hard to write out in Japanese, so I think it’s best to listen and copy directly.
CASE 143Stray Kids
Among K-pop songs that fire up the karaoke room, CASE 143 stands out with overwhelming presence.
Packed with Stray Kids’ distinctive charm, this track lodges itself in your head with its catchy hook and original rhythms.
In the chorus, numbers are used like a cipher for “I love you,” turning it into a secret code.
The rap parts and melodic sections blend exquisitely, making a powerful appeal to the listener’s heart.
How about diving into Stray Kids’ world and singing it with passion?
눈,코,입TAEYANG
A classic ballad released in 2014 by BIGBANG’s SOL, Taeyang.
The lyrics, infused with Taeyang’s feelings for his former lover, are so heartrending they’re enough to bring you to tears.
His emotive vocals are wonderful, too.
It set a new record at the time by topping the Gaon karaoke chart for 11 consecutive weeks, and even in 2020 it ranked sixth in JOYSOUND’s midyear rankings in Japan—a song that’s been loved for a long time.
It’s the kind of track that makes you want to sing alone at karaoke, softly yet as if pouring your heart out.
울고싶지 않아SEVENTEEN
SEVENTEEN’s 2017 hit that opened up a new frontier at the time.
This song portrays facing sorrow and growing from it, and I’m sure many were drawn in by the members’ expressive vocals and beautiful sensibility.
It’s recommended for when you’re feeling wistful, want to sing a ballad, or create a slightly mellow mood.
Renting a slightly larger room to dance could be nice, too.
Singing it solo is great, but teaming up with fellow Carats or friends might deepen your bonds.
Precious LoveTwice
It’s a track included on the 2016 album “PAGE TWO,” a remake of Park Ji-yoon’s 1998 original with added rap.
It might be a bit niche, but it’s a masterpiece I’d recommend even to those who don’t know it.
The melody is poppy and easy to get into, and the vocal range isn’t very high, so it’s great for people who struggle with high notes.
The rap part may be challenging, but it’s melodic.
Karaoke often has lots of hyped-up moments, but this is a heartwarming number—try singing it as a little breather.
Wakey-WakeyNCT 127
The perfect song to hype up a karaoke session—that’s NCT 127’s “Wakey-Wakey”! Included in their first Japanese full-length album “Awaken,” released on April 17, 2019, this track invites listeners into a brand-new world.
With its energetic beat and catchy melody, it delivers explosive fun even inside a karaoke box! Its cool, up-tempo vibe is ideal when you want to sing along with friends and keep the energy high.
Shouting out the wake-up call in sync with the lyrics gives you a thrilling feeling, like snapping out of a dream! It’s great for solo sessions, of course, but also perfect for enjoying with your closest friends.
I AMive
Since their debut, IVE has been energizing the K-pop scene both in terms of records and memories.
Their 2023 release, the first full-length album “I’ve IVE,” features a title track that became so popular it even ranked on domestic karaoke charts, which are mostly filled with ballads.
The group’s confident performance in this song is seriously cool, overflowing with a sing-along power.
While it’s on the difficult side, it’s a track that lifts your spirits whether you sing it or listen to it—so definitely pick it to hype up the crowd!
