The Top 50 Best K-Pop Songs of 2024 (50-41) + honourable mentions
Whilst unproductively and erratic posting schedules have become quite the hallmark of this blog over the past few years, 2024 dare I say reached levels of barren that even I wouldn't have imagined. With only two or three posts over the course of the past twelve months, KBopped in many ways could have been considered … Continue reading The Top 50 Best K-Pop Songs of 2024 (50-41) + honourable mentions
Best K-pop Songs of 2024 (Mid-Year)
In my review for Riize's Impossible last month I had stated quite clearly that I had "fallen out of love" with K-pop. And while I do still hold that statement (to a certain extent) to be true, 2024 has delivered quite a few gems. In fact, it wouldn't be a far cry to call 2024 … Continue reading Best K-pop Songs of 2024 (Mid-Year)
Song Review: RIIZE – Impossible
Whether it be a result of my own tastes changing or a general disconnect with the direction that the industry as a whole is heading, I've recently come to terms with the fact that I've fallen out of love with K-pop. A sentiment that is pretty noticeable when looking at the current state of the … Continue reading Song Review: RIIZE – Impossible
Song Review: TXT – Back for More (with Anitta)
With the unbalanced Sugar Rush Ride and cloying pop jingle of Do it like that, 2023 has seen me feel more disconnected than ever with TXT's musical output. I've been a pretty staunch admirer of all of the groups work since their debut but with shifting trends and my general disinterest in the Korean musical … Continue reading Song Review: TXT – Back for More (with Anitta)

Other times, I want to revisit some albums or tracks that I missed reviewing upon their release. Looking back can really change your perspective on projects and with this segment, i will be highlighting … Continue reading Retrospective Review: Jung kook (BTS) – My Time
Song Review: RIIZE – Get a Guitar
The debut of a new SM group, let alone a new SM boy group, is always a monumental event in the K-pop calendar. As the agency's first new act since Aespa in 2020 and their first boy group since NCT's landscape defining introduction back in 2016, RIIZE arrive with a bucket load of expectations, destined … Continue reading Song Review: RIIZE – Get a Guitar
Song Review: NCT U – Baggy Jeans
At this point, I honestly cant tell where to draw the line between serious and novelty for these NCT tracks. The boys over at Neo Culture Technology have given us some absolute gems in the sphere of wacky, offbeat title tracks over the past few years, most notably curtsy of subunit 127. Songs like Kick … Continue reading Song Review: NCT U – Baggy Jeans
Song Review: TREASURE – Bona Bona
With every passing preview of its many album tracks, TREASURE's ambitious 2nd full album "REBOOT" quietly became one of my most anticipated releases of the year. Each track seemed like a breathe of fresh air and brought a sense of personality that resonated with the kind of energy I had been craving for recently. And … Continue reading Song Review: TREASURE – Bona Bona
Song Review: from20 – Beat It
As one of my favourite discoveries of the past year, from20 and his accompanying label, The Faker Club, have been firing on all cylinders as of late, consistently delivering some of the strongest and most satisfying k-pop singles in recent memory. April's Bad Revenge was a certified smash which makes it an even bigger surprise … Continue reading Song Review: from20 – Beat It
