Gosh our internet connection here in our house has been crappy lately. Anyway, Happy Lunar New Year! The Year of the Rooster has officially started so I wish us all good luck!
Today I'll share to you my Top 30 K-drama OSTs of 2016. K-dramas had made a very big impact here in Philippines last 2016 since Descendants of the Sun aired. Many Kdrama pages in Facebook popped out of nowhere. Some even asked me what are some other good series to watched, and I happily suggest them my favorites of course. As a Kpop and Kdrama fan, I am glad that happened but I lowkey hate it also. It's like we are just few who have been living in an unknown quiet planet and then all of a sudden the planet just became crowded because it became popular and people want to live there too because it's "popular". But well, I'm still thankful though because I can now fangirl without being judged.
So much of the intro part, here now are my Top 30 Kdrama OST's for 2016:
Disclaimer: This list consists of OST's from the dramas I watched. I might talk about the drama as well.
30. Monsta X - The Tiger Moth (from Shopping King Louie)
This drama was my stress reliever after I watched Scarlet Heart Ryeo. I love all the characters here and Louie and Boksil are sooo cute and innocent.
29. Umji (GFriend) - The Way (from Shopping King Louie)
Umji's voice is really cute, it fits the song and the characters in the drama very much.
28. Yezi & Jung Chaeyeon - Shadow (from Wanted)
This song is an exception. I haven't watched Wanted but I tried to listen to this because of Yezi and I just fell in love. And Chaeyeon's voice made this song sounds sad.
27. BTOB - For You (from Cinderella and Four Knights)
I know, the drama plot of this is very cliche but I still enjoyed this though.
26. EXO-CBX - For You (from Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
It's another FOR YOU! Gosh, I will talk about this drama later.
25. Han Hee Jung - Dream (from Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo)
Ah~ This drama, I can't explain how I love this so much. It is very light but has many lessons. And Jung Joon Hyung is such an ideal guy.
24. Wendy & Seulgi - Don't Push Me (from Uncontrollably Fond)
I'll talk about this drama later too.
23. Taeyeon - All With You (from Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
Later~
22. Tearliner, 5urprise - Fill You, Erase You from (Cheese In The Trap)
I'm watching Cheese In The Trap again because I missed Kim Go Eun as Hong Seol. And the annoying characters still annoy me especially Baek In Ha. Gosh, Lee Sung Kyung is such a good actress. I also didn't realized earlier that Seo Kang Jun is a member of 5urprise.
21. Chen & Punch - Everytime (from Descendants Of The Sun)
Will talk about this later, too~
20. Kim Kyung Hee - And I'm Here (from Goblin)
Oh God, Dokkaebi. I'll talk about this later too.
19. Jung Joon Young - Where Are U (from W: Two Worlds)
This drama has a really unique plot. Props to writer-nim for being so creative. You can never guess what will happen next, it just keeps on surprising you.
18. Yoon Mirae - Always (froms Descendants Of The Sun)
Yoon Mirae is such a queen. She's the Rap Queen and OST Queen for me.
17. Bolbbalgan4 - Dream (from Hwarang)
This is also an exception. I haven't watched Hwarang yet, but come on, it's Bolbbalgan4!
16. Crush - Beautiful (from Goblin)
Almost everyone are complaining about how CJ E&M changed the original singer for this song. But Crush really did an amazing job here.
15. Lee Hi - My Love (from Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
Later again~
14. Davichi - This Love (from Descendants Of The Sun)
DOTS has many great OSTs
13. Lee Sun Hee - Windflower (from Legend Of The Blue Sea)
This song is really sad. Their love story also is very sad. I haven't finished watching it yet but I know writer-nim made a happy ending for them because fans will freak out if not hehe. Anyway, this drama is very popular here in Philippines because hey, it's Lee Min Ho and Jun Ji Hyun, who can't resist them?
12. Basick, INKII - In The Illusion (from W: Two Worlds)
Songs like this are just my type, sad rap with sad singing voice, and the deep lyrics, it's just so beautiful.
11. Midnight Youth - Golden Love (from Uncontrollably Fond)
10. New Empire - A Little Braver (from Uncontrollably Fond)
Uncontrollably Fond may be so underrated but I don't care, I love how tragic this drama is. Woobin and Suzy played their roles very well. And it has a realistic ending.
9. Ailee - I Will Come To You As The First Snow (from Goblin)
This song is just so sad.
8. Tearliner, Kim Go Eun - Attraction (from Cheese In The Trap)
I never knew that Kim Go Eun sang this, I just found out super late. Never thought she had an angelic voice, now I have more reasons to love her! Anyway, Tearliner had made an amazing job for Cheese In The Trap OSTs. CITT is one of my top fave dramas because it's like a YA novel (which is my favorite novel genre). The main characters are both not perfect, and because of that they complete each other. I'm not very satisfied with the ending though so that's why I decided after I finish re-watching this series, I will read it's webtoon because it's still ongoing.
7. Heize & Han Soo Ji - Round And Round (from Goblin)
When I first heard this song, I actually wanted a full version immediately. And it's not just me, almost all who watched Goblin waited for it. When it was released, many were disappointed because it sounded different, including me. Well, I like Heize and I know this is not her fault but in my opinion Han Soo Ji's voice suited the song more. It's still very good though. That's why it's in number 7.
6. Beige & Hwang Chi Yeul - I Miss You (from Moonlight Drawn By Clouds)
Yes, I like both versions. To be honest, I stopped watching this drama on episode 16 because I was too focused on watching Scarlet Heart. One sad drama is enough for me that time. But I plan on finishing it, I just don't know when 😇
5. Mad Clown ft. Kim Na Young - Once Again (from Descendants Of The Sun)
I was so hyped to watch Song Joongki again in a drama. I was very happy when he came back from the military and will be having a drama with Song Hye Kyo. I never thought DOTS would be so popular internationally esp. here in PH. I just love this so much despite the hate they gave. Jin Goo and Jiwon's characters are very adorable also.
4. Epik High ft. Lee Hi - Can You Hear My Heart (from Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
3. Chanyeol & Punch - Stay With Me (from Goblin)
2. Lim Sun Hae - Will Be Back (from Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
Only God knows how much tears I cried throughout this drama. I really thought this drama was fun at first, turned out to be very tragic, but despite that I still watched it till the end. I really don't like the ending though because I hate open endings. And this song, gosh, there really is something in this song because whenever I hear this, my heart just aches, remembering all the deaths that happened.
1. Sam Kim - Who Are You (from Goblin)
This song is everything.
After CITT, I watched some movies which starred Kim Go Eun. And hell, she's a very versatile actress and suddenly became my favorite actress. So I was very happy when she was chosen as the lead actress for Goblin together with Gong Yoo. And not just that, also Lee Dong Wook, Yoo In Na, and Yook Sungjae are in this drama so I was way more excited. Every episode of Goblin never disappoints me. I really thought Grim Reaper would be the bad guy here but nah, he and Goblin are so adorable whenever they fight childishly. And for Goeun and Sungjae, I am just so proud of them both. The plot, the OSTs, the characters, are so on point in this drama and I'm so glad it has a happy ending.
