9 Underrated Tracks From Popular K-Pop Groups You Should Definitely Listen To

Unless you’re a full-time stan, it’s easy to accidentally miss a release—even from a really popular K-pop group! Whether it’s underrated B-sides or older title tracks that don’t get as much attention these days, there are so many songs out there to enjoy. Don’t worry though. Your FOMO stops here! These are some of the best tracks from popular groups that you might have missed.

TWICE – “GO HARD”

“GO HARD” has been going viral thanks to some incredible performance videos from TWICE’s world tour! It’s a certified banger from their 2020 album “Eyes Wide Open,” and fans are happy to see it getting its time in the spotlight. With an addictive beat and sultry vocals, it’s a great addition to a K-pop dance playlist.

ATEEZ – “MIST”

ATEEZ is known for their electronic K-pop sound and intense stage performances, but they still know how to slay an emotional ballad like “MIST.” A hidden gem from 2019, the unbelievably powerful vocals on this track are some of the group’s best. Don’t sleep on ATEEZ ballads!

Red Velvet – “On A Ride”

If you’re a big fan of Red Velvet’s older music, “On A Ride” might surprise you. It’s a B-side from the group’s latest album “Birthday,” but it totally sounds like it would fit right in with the Red Velvet classics. It’s quirky and fun but still supported by strong vocals and bouncy rap.

TXT – “Can’t We Just Leave The Monster Alive?”

With all of the bright energy you’d expect from the early days of TXT’s career, “Can’t We Just Leave The Monster Alive?” is a fun song with a surprisingly deep message. It’s a B-side from their 2019 album “The Dream Chapter: MAGIC,” and it has been experiencing newfound popularity thanks to TXT’s ongoing world tour.

ITZY – “365”

If you’re not a big fan of bubblegum when it comes to K-pop, “365” from the group’s 2022 album “Checkmate” is an excellent choice. The heavy beat and electro-pop sound make this a song that will have you grooving in your seat, and it’s got just enough of the ITZY flair thrown in to make it feel unique.

Stray Kids – “Mixtape: OH”

Originally released as a single in 2021, “Mixtape: OH” might not be the standard Stray Kids fare, but it is just so good! It’s got a bit of an acoustic sound that feels fresh, and layered with the sweet vocals and rhythmic rap sections, it’s total perfection. Plus, the music video is just too cute.

(G)I-DLE – “Uh-Oh”

It’s been almost four years since this song was released, but it’s still every bit as good as it was back then! With a ’90s hip hop groove that’ll have any playlist bumping, there’s an air of nostalgia to it. “Uh-Oh” might be a throwback for longtime (G)I-DLE stans, but new fans should definitely hear it too!

BSS – “Just do it”

The SEVENTEEN unit BSS took the world by storm with their latest release “Fighting,” but OGs will remember their very first release from 2018—”Just do it”! New fans will be pleased to find that it’s every bit as energetic and quirky as the trio themselves, and even those who aren’t seasoned stans will love it.

STAYC – “LIKE THIS”

It’s hard to believe that it’s been two and a half years since STAYC’s debut, but this song is still fantastic! The companion track to their very first single release, “LIKE THIS” has the strong vocals and smooth rap that fans have come to expect from the group, with a light melody running through the backing track that makes it feel unique.

BTS – “Save ME”

This is one that newer ARMYs might not know, but it’s a BTS classic! Released in 2016, “Save ME” is the basis for one of BTS’s most popular B-sides—”I’m Fine.” The track is so easy to get stuck in your head, and the choreography is stunning. That’s not to mention how gorgeous the vocals are, and of course the rap is perfect as well.
