A K-pop act’s title track isn’t always the best song on their album, even if it’s the one most people will hear. Sometimes, b-sides deserve recognition too. In the singles-oriented world of K-pop, I want to spotlight some of these buried treasures and give them the props they deserve. At this point, it seems as if I’ll be reviewing every new TWS track. They haven’t yet released a song I’d rate below an “8” and that track record continues with new anime OST N.O.S.A. I can’t for the life of me figure out what those letters stand for, but the…

We haven’t had a Korean comeback from IVE since January, but their Rebel Heart has remained on Korean charts since then and new mega-hit hit single Golden (from the K-pop Demon Hunters soundtrack) has been widely compared to IVE’s past hits. In other words, the group hasn’t exactly been absent from public consciousness. Now, they’re back with Japanese single Be Alright. IVE’s last J-pop single was released about a year ago and leaned heavily into their pop side. Be Alright takes a similar approach, offering sugary sweet melodies over buoyant rhythm guitar and an energetic beat. It’s quite straightforward, content…

Just a day after her fellow Sistar member Hyolyn released a new single, Soyou is back with new music of her own. Two summers ago, she carried on Sistar’s sonic legacy with the excellent Aloha, but like Hyolyn she’s decided to explore different summer sounds with PDA. PDA feels much more indebted to the early 2000s in the way so much recent K-pop has been. Its sprightly beat has that familiar ‘Neptunes meet Jersey club’ sound, hitting softly even as the tempo remains brisk. It’s a production that could have backdropped so many recent K-pop singles, making it amorphous when…
