2022 Kpop binge list
This year Dreamcatcher was the biggest surprise, I love the Apocalypse: Save Us album and seeing them live kept that momentum strong. Weirdly enough until now I could not get into them. |
1 | Dreamcatcher (KR) Starlight
Best song for me this year, the 80s influence makes this a really catchy, lovely tune. |
2 | MAISON
The single off the Dreamcatcher album is just as good. |
3 | IVE Love Dive
Awesome song by these newcomers, it's something different than yer usual Kpop singles. |
4 | KEP1ER WA DA DA
Infectious song. |
5 | VIVIZ Bop Bop
Half of Gfriend returns as VIVIZ and do an excellent job. |
6 | TAEYEON INVU
Not much of a Taeyeon fan, yet this track is lovely. |
7 | SUNMI Heart Burn
Sunmi can do no wrong. |
8 | Dreamcatcher (KR) Beauty Full
Solo song from member Dami brings the blink-182 sound. She should do an EP of this stuff next time. |
9 | Cherry
Solo song from member JiU with some city pop touches, very catchy. |
10 | LE SSERAFIM Fearless
Another great song from newcomers Le Sserafim. |
11 | fromis_9 DM
Noice |
12 | TWICE Talk That Talk
A slow year for TWICE, yet this one keeps the good times going. |
13 | Brave Girls Whistle |
14 | KEP1ER Up! |
15 | LOONA Flip That
Wild year for LOONA, but this song is nice. |
16 | WJSN Chocome Super Yuppers! |
17 | VIVIZ Loveade |
18 | Dreamcatcher (KR) VISION
Not as catchy as MAISON, but the EBM vibes are tight. |
19 | BoA (KOR) Forgive Me
BoA tries the pop rock trend that seems to seep in Kpop as well and does a good job. |
20 | Brave Girls Thank You
City pop city pop city pop |
21 | IVE After Like
Perhaps too pretentious with the I Will Survive sample, but good song overall. |

Three releases in a year, decent quality overall. |
29 | Cherry Bullet Love in Space |
30 | TWICE Queen of Hearts
Some pop rock here too, decent overall. |
31 | BLACKPINK Yeah Yeah Yeah
Maybe the only one redeemable from that album. |
32 | EXID Fire |
33 | LE SSERAFIM Antifragile
Wild change of style after Fearless, but it slowly gets under yer skin. |
