what is your favourite Kpop English release this year?

gone was actually so damn good

. . . Paint Me Naked is so good

Quote from MissBehave

I picked Middle of the Night from that list, but it was actually released in 2020. This is Monsta X's most recent English title track off the album The Dreaming which dropped last week.

Middle of the Night was actually 2019

Anyways:

Butter but I enjoyed PTD, MU and the feels too

Butter

Moonlight- TWICE

The lack of Rose

Imagine not including the best English release of the year Rose

Rose - Kyungsoo (D.O) (vocals on point!)

But I also liked Butter and The Feels (both are very very catchy) !

If Jackson Wang can be included (ik he is Cpop but he is a Kpop idol as well), then LMLY ( a whole sad bop)

Also Air by BamBam ofc

also one of the best b-sides of the year.

The only English release I still listen:

Thirding Rose because

Does the English version of Beautiful Beautiful count becauseeee

This no question. Most unique atmosphere in a song for a long time. They recorded the English version first so there is nothing jarring or awkward compared to the KR version, in fact, they said it was the KR version they altered the diction to feel more like this one as it came out so well. Also none of the girls are fluent but you would never guess - they worked so hard.

If I have to pick from the list then i'd say The Feels. Pop perfection and it didn't feel like they changed their concept or sound to be more palatable to westerners. This was Twice on top of their game imho. I do like Rosie's solos too.
