2018: A Year of Kpop discovery

Looking back at 2018, I realised 1) I discovered new groups. BTS, EXO and SHINee comebacks didn’t make it to my list. 2) I prefer hard rock over soft pop (I don’t even know the terms – help out a classical musician!). 3) A girl group made it to my list @mindy! 😀

1. iKON- Love Scenario
2. PENTAGON- Shine
3. iKON- Goodbye Road
4. Wanna One – Boomerang
5. Stray Kids – My Pace
6. NCT U – Baby Don’t Stop
7. EXO CBX – Blooming Day
8. Stray Kids – District 9
9. Mamamoo – Starry Night
10. Seventeen – Oh My!

    GOOD. Top 10 lists without a single female artist make me angry.

    Love Scenario is good, too.

      Hmm, well, making lists is a subjective exercise. I like songs based on their musical quality and appeal, doesn’t matter who sings it, new or established singer, male or female… so don’t be angry. Also note this is a list of groups, not soloists. Otherwise IU would be up there.

    From your list, I love:
    1. iKON- Love Scenario
    2. PENTAGON- Shine
    3. iKON- Goodbye Road
    5. Stray Kids – My Pace
    9. Mamamoo – Starry Night

    Which is half your list! HAHAHA

      Fab! I guess the other half of your list includes some BTS, right?

        Yeah. These aren’t my top 10 tbh. I’d need two lists. 1. BIG LOVE – will be a lot of BTS, some Winner, a little iKon. 2. Non-BTS & YG – Stray Kids, Key’s solo, LocoXBaekhyun collaboration, Mamamoo yes, Imfact’s NANANA & a few others. 😅
