Eerie or unnerving kpop songs?

  • I've been really liking GFriend's Apple because while it is sexy and sleek, it has some undercurrents of something eerie, sinister, or otherworldly going on... I can't explain it but I feel like something bad is about to happen?? but I love it and I can't stop listening to it.

    Another example would be Red Velvet's Ice Cream Cake, it just sounds wrong in the best way (this is a compliment). The "la la la la la" parts specifically in the prechorus is so unnerving although I don't know why.

    An incorrect example would be Irene and Seulgi's Monster. It does have a monster/horror concept, but it's not unnerving/eerie imo.

    Any recommendations (bg, gg, or solo) would be appreciated! Thanks :)

  • This is what came to my mind when you said eerie, and its a freaking bop

    It still intrigues me to this day. It's also why it's one of my favorite NCT b-sides.

  • Apple.. Paradise Lost....



    Seems like the creepiest k-pop songs are on that Milton shit.

    Here's another.

    A fitting ost for a very unnerving series

  • I kinda see what you're talking about. Like halloween-ish, dream-like type of songs, right? Gotcha.

  • Oh, I get what you mean!

    I actually felt the same way about Blackpink's Ice Cream.


    these are the skz songs that came to my mind:

    Side Effects - the entire concept of the song is burnout, but not just lyrically as one would expect, the song was intentionally composed in a way to unnerve the listener.

    3rd Eye - it's slow, minimalistic, yet rather eerie (at one point, just creepy)

    Chronosaurus - a song that likens time to an otherwordly monster chasing one. It has beautiful vocals, but feels very eerie.

    Astronaut - this one is more similar to the songs you mentioned; it's a cute and bright song, not dark at all. But I still feel like there's something …unsettling about it? Especially the autotuned part at the beginning.

    The Tortoise and the Hare - it's kind of unpredictable and feels eerie at times, but imo the ending is kind of wholesome?

  • Closer is one of the most haunting yet beautiful KPOP songs.

    So is Winter Flower by Younha ft. RM. The vocals are heavenly and the rap adds a lot of depth to the song <3

    Kidding's kinda upbeat but some parts of the song like the piano and vocal layers post-chorus sound horror-esque

    Dia literally buried alive (actually real), more grudge zombie sounds, gasps, blood, butterflies on fire, Satbyeol demonic sounding prechorus. Also honorary mention to Pixy's debut song Wings with the unnerving scream in the middle of the song and the mildly disturbing choreo that goes along with it.

  • I've been really liking GFriend's Apple because while it is sexy and sleek, it has some undercurrents of something eerie, sinister, or otherworldly going on... I can't explain it but I feel like something bad is about to happen?? but I love it and I can't stop listening to it.

    Another example would be Red Velvet's Ice Cream Cake, it just sounds wrong in the best way (this is a compliment). The "la la la la la" parts specifically in the prechorus is so unnerving although I don't know why.

    An incorrect example would be Irene and Seulgi's Monster. It does have a monster/horror concept, but it's not unnerving/eerie imo.

    Any recommendations (bg, gg, or solo) would be appreciated! Thanks :)

    I think this is similar to what you are looking for
