“Hot summer, hot hot summer!” What song describes Korean summers better than this song? I remember back when Simon and Martina of Eat Your Kimchi were still reviewing K-pop music videos and they were like “Why is Krystal wearing leather skinny pants in a Korean summer? It’s too hot here for that.” Which, highly accurate! 17.
I mostly remember going to a bar one of my last nights in Seoul and this suddenly playing and all of us getting excited haha. It might’ve a special thing for fans but I remember them being at a resort and having to run around because every time I whine about being hot, I mimic Jessica being dragged by Yoona and Seohyun while she just goes “Airconnn, airconn.” It’s a whole mood if you’ve never seen it! Anyway, “Echo” itself is very fresh and probably one of the cutsier songs on the list. I think the video for this song was released as part of some sort of variety for SNSD.
I could best describe this song as cheeky rap/pop? 12.

You know when you learn a new language and you have that moment of suddenly understanding a line in a song or on TV? Hearing “집에 가지마” was that moment for me! This is one of my favorite songs to come out of Big Bang crew both full group, duet, and solo singles. Yoona, Seohyun, and Yuri play lifeguards with 2PM’s Taecyeon, Nichkun, and Chansung at Caribbean Bay, Everland’s water park with a cute little love story between Yoona and Taecyeon. The only commercial song on this playlist! 2PM and SNSD collaborated for this song and everyone in the music video looked GOOD. I think they knew it too because the music video at Lotte World with them dressed up in the most ridiculous costumes is too fun. (which stands for “Highfive of Teenagers” *cringes*) was like the Backstreet Boys of Korea and this song is pure bubblegum cheese. I love even more that Im Byeong Su has been singing it here and there over 30 years later and looks like he’s having the time of his life! 2. Ice Cream Love by Im Byeong Su (1985)įirst heard this song in “Reply 1988” when Dukseon claims she knows Spanish and then she and Dongryong bust out a bad rendition of “Ice Cream Love”! A mix of Korean and Spanish, this song is exactly what you’d think an 80s pop song from Korea would sound like, and I love it.

Had to go back in time a bit, especially because the “Reply” series introduced me to such great throwbacks from the 80s, early 90s, and late 90s! Of course, my earlier Korean music knowledge is a lot sparser, so I’m sure I’m missing a bunch.
