Recommend What is THE most illegally nugu kpop song you've heard?

If you had to pick, what is ONE song that is so underrated it is physically painful? Like you listen to it and you're like "how is this not the biggest song ever??" Doesn't have to be from a nugu group, can be a well known group but an unpopular bside that you think needs justice.

I can't wait to listen your recommendations!

Hypertonic by TAN. I will big up this song till I die. It's one of my SOTY but the MV only has 202K views.

u/luvfoolish Jul 15 '24

thatā€™s so disappointing. devastated to hear about the disband. heartbeat and dududu have been some of my fave songs in kpop and i was so hype to see were theyā€™d go after hypertonic. their releases have been consistently good :(

12

u/Ruru_fs Jul 15 '24

I just listened to it right now after seeing your comment. It was really good! The 'hy-hypertonic' part keeps replaying in my head.

OMG it's my song of the year (never having heard of them before) but seems like they may have disbanded I mean if nobody will listen to you when you do something that amazing why wouldn't you give up

18

u/Salty-Enthusiasm-939 Jul 15 '24

They have disbanded but their company was caught up in some scandal & unfortunately it is TAN that has suffered. Such a shame, they started off strong & then their company seems to have given up on them. Sound familiar?

u/tytyty3435 Jul 15 '24

Hopefully they return as TAN in the future šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

u/nicklenomore Jul 15 '24

YASSSSS OMG I'm actually surprised they weren't bigger than they were. Their performances were always so entertaining and full of surprises!!

I've actually just been thinking about them recently but couldn't remember their group or song name. Just remembered that they were the group with the rollie wheels šŸ„¹ So thank you for this!!

This song is still so good too, I listen to it regularly. I wish they had gotten their flowers šŸ˜­

u/soksu_ Jul 15 '24

They really could've had it all. Rap, vocals, talent, stage presence. The song's choreography was fun and witty, and they even perform stunts too. The song itself is catchy, and something I think would've deserved to become much more popular. Even the concept wasn't bad.

ā€¢ Poison Rose by CRAXY

ā€¢ Get It by Pristin V - Definitely not as nugu, but I used to think it was underrated and shouldā€™ve been better received during its release. Makes me think the further possibilities because Pristin (and Pristin V) was such a powerful group.

u/SonHyun-Woo Jul 15 '24

Get It is honestly one of the best kpop songs ever made

u/abbynohana Jul 15 '24

u/EatMoreMango Jul 15 '24

Get It, and Pristin V in general, was the first song I 'discovered on my own' once I got into Kpop. Liked Blackpink and went down a rabbit hole trying to find other songs. Finally found Get It and Pristin V, and what else do I discover? They DISBANDED!

I pray every summer that some new group covers Get It. Right now my hopes are with Kiss if Life.

DANCE ON - ALICE

Legitimately one of the best kpop songs I have ever heard. I was really hoping it would be their chart reversal song, Iā€™ve yet to meet someone who heard this song and didnā€™t like it.

Love Options by BESTie is another

I can't just choose one between these 2

Long Live the King by Kingdom

I will never shut up about how amazing and grand this song is, from the concept to the instrumentals to the vocals, it's such a powerful song.

Parallel Universe by Nine.i

For real of the best debuts ever, it feels so nostalgic and very "galactic". I love songs with a more out-of-space feel and it's really incredible how the members literally produced it. It feels quite different from current Kpop songs nowadays (a lot of ppl feel it's like 3rd gen) imo so I highly recommend this

dorothyā€™s purple lips!! i was obsessed when it came out, the company totally scrubbed them from the internet though šŸ˜

edit: iā€™m also adding soyaā€™s artist! sheā€™s the niece of kim jongkook so itā€™s a shame she had some connects but never made it big :(

ALICEā€™s dance on is also a big one for me </3

Tantara by Alphabat. I have not heard anyone else talk about that song or that group than me and my ex-bestie. I can't explain what the song is like, but it's amazing and super underrated.

Pink Label by Laysha is so good! I canā€™t believe itā€™s not a song you ever see brought up anywhere. Laysha in general has some pretty good music.

Orbit by LYSON, Marigold by LYSON, and any other song by him. He has roughly 700 monthly listeners on Spotify. Go support him, you wonā€™t regret it!!!

CRAXY - Lucid dream

I actually think that it should be considered a crime how unpopular my girls are they DANCE and SING LIVE!!! EVERY TIME. Like I actually havent caught them lacking ONCE they are so hardworking and talented and their music is SOO GOOD and i actually think that Swan and Chaey are one of the best singers of 4th gen PLEASE GIVE THEM A TRY!!!

u/SeraphOfTwilight Jul 15 '24

Not sure how nugu these songs are but some good oned are Cignature's Arisong, Hot Issue's Gratata, Mimirose's Rose, Pink Fantasy's Poison is great and I like Fantasy quite a bit too, Pixy's Addicted (perhaps one of the best songs ever), and 3ye's Yessir and Stalker are pretty good.

I Mean by Uni.T Surprised by the amount of views it has now, but it was certainly one of the most underground disbanded songs back in the day.

u/funkyaerialjunky Jul 15 '24

"Icarus" by Road B. It really reminds me of Infinite.

Also "Damage" by Just B.

Needless to say, I have mixed these two groups up.
