My TOP 60 KOREAN SONGS for 2016

Oraenmaniya chinggudeuls! Can't remember the last time I posted here. I'm just too lazy nowadays especially that I am already employed. But since it's end of the year, I want to make a list of the songs that got stuck on me this year. Yes, as you can read on my title, below is my Top 60 Korean Songs for the year 2016 *woot woot* These are songs released from January 1 to this day, December 30, 2016. It's really so hard ranking the songs. Some are even not included since I need to pick only 60 songs. It's so hard to be a multi-fangirl guys. And this does not include OSTs, FYI, I'll be making a separate list for that.

Disclaimer: This list may be a bit biased since this is MY list. I prioritized my biases of course *wink*

So let's get this started!

#60
Come Over by BTOB


This song is from their mini-album NEW MEN. I really like this song because Ilhoon is singing the chorus. I told you this list is biased (lol). But c'mon, this song is really good.

#59
Noona Neo Malya by CROSS GENE


I actually love their mini album PLAY last year so I'm really excited about their next mini album GAME, but really, I got a little disappointed especially when they released the YIN YANG album. The song that stuck on me from their songs this year is just Noona Neo Malya, I'll Be Fine, and Love Game. I still love Cross Gene and Yongseok though <3

#58
You Bad! Don't Make Me Cry by MATILDA

I feel really sad when Kiss&Cry disbanded. Their debut song Domino Game is very lit af. They can be compared to Mamamoo TBH. So I'm very glad that Haena debuted again. Matilda's Macarena is so okay, Summer Again is really good but I tend to forget about it that's why it's not included in this list, this one is very good and have a really chill vibes. And Saebyeol is really pretty, she's my bias.

#57
Queen by HISTORY


This song is really sexy. They are all sexy. *drools*

#56
Cider by Yezi

Yezi is my ultimate female bias next to IU and I'm so happy that she's now recognized and Fiestar. Though not really since LOEN is shitty in promoting their artists SMH. I love History and Fiestar but they are just so underrated. I want to tell the world how awesome they are!

#55
How's This by Hyuna

This song is cool, so Hyuna-ish but it just doesn't level to her other songs IMO :)

#54
Call You Bae by Jimin (AOA) and Xiumin (EXO)


This song is Xiumin's first song without his group. I'm so proud of my fluffy Xiumin.

#53
Fanfare - SF9

Just for the information of those not informed, SF9 is a rookie group. Haha. I almost became their fan because of this song. I tried to memorize their names but I really forgot. I only recognize Juho.

#52
Mirror by Fiestar


I love their Black Label album so much. I'm kinda disappointed with A Delicate Sense, I only like the song Mirror. And their single Apple Pie is really catchy. Gosh, I hope they'll comeback with a full album soon. Fiestar fighting!

#51
No Oh Oh by CLC

Man, I almost forgot about CLC I was just shocked they became a 7-member group. Lol. CLC is very underrated, though even when they are from CUBE. Ugh, CUBE.

#50
Star by Heize

Heize's voice is so aesthetic and she's pretty I ship her with DEAN.

#49
Hard Carry by GOT7

I love GOT7 but lately their songs are meh. Whenever I hear this song, it always remind me of Fire by BTS.

#48
Rough by GFriend

I'm so sorry. I know many are saying that this song should win an award but for me this song just doesn't last on my head, I can't even remember the tune unless it's played. But their choreography is really great, as usual from GFriend, they have some awesome choreographer and props to them for slaying the choreo given to them.

#47
Hit Me by MOBB (feat. Kush)

This is the kind of song you want to play on New Year's Eve


#46
I Like You Too Much by Sonamoo

I really like the rookie Sonamoo, so badass. Idk what happened but this song, even not badassed, is still very catchy and I like it too much.

#45
Molae Molae by I.B.I

I haven't watched Produce 101 but they got some really talented girls. Even these girls are not on the top they still got some talent.

#44
The 7th Sense by NCT U

IDK but this song is really sexy for me.

#43
Without You by NCT U

This NCT Project is very confusing. Why not debut them together, SM?

#42
Letting Go by DAY6

Let's just all take a listen for this underrated band from JYP

#41
BOOM BOOM by SEVENTEEN

I'm not a fan of Seventeen but I got two songs from them in this list.

#40
Sentimental by Winner

I got really sentimental when Nam Tae left :(

#39
Liar Liar by Oh My Girl

So many are sleeping for these amazing girls :(

#38
Knock by KNK

Girl, I checked on this song very late because I thought it's another cutesy concept from a rookie group hahaha I'm so sorry for being judgmental

#37
chase by Yezi & Babylon

Props to Babylon's amazing voice. And yaaas, Yezi is singing and rapping here oh my gush

#36
Can You Feel It by Pentagon

C'mon CUBE, you have so many amazing and talented artists, please don't waste them again. We love them so much, so please take care of them for us. Thank you! *u*

#35
Pricked by Mino & Nam Taehyun

I can't describe what I'm feeling whenever I listen to this. MINO IS FREAKING SINGING.

#34
Why by Taeyeon

Taeyeon has been releasing many songs since 2015, SM should stop for now lol

#33
Decalcomanie by Mamamoo

As usual from my moms, they've been giving us amazing songs since forever.

#32
Fxxk Wit Us by Lee Hi

This is swag Lee Hi. Seoulite is an awesome album but there's really something with this song.

#31
Beside Me by Davichi

The only ballad song on this list. This is my favorite song from them so far except for their OSTs.

#30
Hate by 4Minute

Yah, I hate that they disbanded. It's so sudden!!

#29
Fresh Adventure by LABOUM

I got LSS to sangsanghae

#28
Good Luck by AOA

This is my favorite song from AOA I think. I'm not a fan of them btw

#27
The Eye by INFINITE

#26
Gorilla by Pentagon

I like their choreo for this song, very accurate lol

#25
Windy Day by Oh My Girl

You need to see their live performances for this song! The choreo is amazing!

#24
L.I.E by EXID

Their performances in SBS Gayo Daejun and KBS Gayo Daechukje for this song is daebak! Solji was not able to perform with them though but I'm sure she's very proud of her girls.

#23
Boombayah by Blackpink

I was so hyped when Blackpink debuted, they are so talented and very promising, plus they are from YG. BTW, my bias is Jennie Kim

#22
HookGa by High4 20

That sub-unit name though 😁 anyway I don't know why I so like this song, maybe because I miss High4 so much. I hope they will comeback soon.

#21
I Am You, You Are Me by Zico

I can't also explain why I like this song. It's so chill and sexy for me whenever he sing the chorus.

#20
Very Nice by Seventeen

I told you I'm not a fan of Seventeen, but this song is Very Nice that's why it's in #20

#19
Fxxk It by BIGBANG

I feel hyped whenever I hear this song, but idk, Bang Bang Bang is still my fav song from their MADE album

#18
Whatta Man by IOI

Yoojung's rap, plus Chungha's choreo. I haven't watched Produce 101 but I love IOI

#17
Hey Mama by EXO-CBX

Chen Baek Xiu killing me with their vocals. plus BAEKXIU'S RAP

#16
Don't Forget by Crush (feat. Taeyeon)

Ah Crush's voice is so nice in ears

#15
Pick Me by IOI

Omg, you can judge me but this song is really cute. This reminds me of Kawaii songs lol

#14
Save Me by BTS

sallyeojuseyo~

#13
Russian Roulette by Red Velvet

I love all Red Velvet's songs 💓

#12
TT by Twice

You know when this was released, it's on loop for the whole day haha

#11
Very Very Very by IOI

Who can't sing and dance with them whenever they sing neomu neomu neomu~ and jakku jakku jakku~??

#10
Whistle by Blackpink

Make 'em whistle like a missile bomb!

#09
Bermuda Triangle by Zico (feat. Crush, Dean)

Man, this is so dope!!!

#08
A Lie by B1A4

I've been waiting for their comeback since their last comeback. You feel me? 😀 And then they gave me a full album, isn't it amajing?? Anyway Good Timing is very good, BANA love you B1A4 <3

#07
Monster by EXO

Well, I've been a fan since their debut so no need to explain.

#06
Pray (I'll Be Your Man) by BTOB

Finally, they came back with a dance track. As usual they are slaying us all with their vocals. Just so you know my ultimate bias is Ilhoon. He's just so amazing I can't describe why I love him so much. I'm waiting for his solo album, that's gonna be dope! And Peniel, we're so proud of you boy.

#05
Playing With Fire by Blackpink

This song is just so good. Jennie's been slapping me how perfect she is. Rose's voice, Lisa's rap, Jisoo's visual and voice, c'mon, who would not love them.

#04
Fire by BTS

I never get tired listening to Fire. I feel like I'm a dancer whenever I hear this because it makes me dance lol

#03
Cheer Up by TWICE

This year is TWICE's year, there's so denying it. Cheer Up is a 2016 phenomenon, it's not musically very good but you can get LSS when you hear it. And whenever I listen to this, I always dance especially on chorus. But, it's not my #1 song, yeah, you might get shocked what my #2 and #1 are.

#02
Galaxy by Bolbbalgan4

Discovering Bolbbalgan4 is been the greatest feeling I had in my 2016. When I was playing an IOI song in Youtube (thanks IOI btw lol), it's on Autoplay so it automatically play their next recommended songs until it played this song! I immediately checked Youtube what it was playing and it's them. I listened to their full album, and all songs are amazing! Those who don't know them yet, you should check them out now! They were even nominated as Best New Female Artist in MAMA2016, sadly though they didn't won.

#01
Fighting Day by Bolbbalgan4

Hell yeah it's another song from Bolbbalgan4! I think Galaxy is what made them popular, but I love this song more than Galaxy. This song is my most played song in my phone so need I say more? I badly want to put all their songs in this list but I have other priorities also haha. Anyways, Jiyoung's voice is so aesthetic I love it so much and Jiyoon should sing/rap more though.


That's it! I'll post my Top 20 Korean Drama OSTs maybe on first week of January. Have a wonderful New Year everyone! Saranghaeyo~
