yeah, #1 and #2 were pretty much locked for the entire year. they'd rank super high regardless, but being the breakout hits of 2 of my favourite groups (for momoland esp.) gave them an extra boost tbh.

oh for sure. idols are under unreasonably long contracts and trainee debt a lot of the times, and it does prey on young people's dreams.

here's g.o, formerly of mblaq, talking about how rookies get scammed in particular:

i don't know if this ever popped up in your youtube recommendations, but this cuck philosophy video is good background:

we have almost the same number of artists represented, so your list is plenty varied! some stuff i've never heard, some because i don't pay as much attention to the rock side. that voisper song is good, and i totally meant to give that a shout when i was doing that the last two weeks. also yesss, honey popcorn.

i was actually thinking that nio, the 'i don't like your girlfriend' appreciator, probably likes 'la la la' when i was listing it under worst song, so cool to see it there. several on my worst songs list there in fact, but it's cool when our tastes diverge.

oh wait, i blocked red velvet's 'power up' from memory. consider that an honourable mention. 'really bad boy', too.

man, i hope 2019 is better for red velvet.

'idol' ended up growing on me, too. it's a fun song.

agreed about the blackpink album. YG groups are generally better the further they are from the yolosweg that is their brand. been a while since i've listened to 'square up' but i think the most dire for me was the "i gotta know that you're for reealll' section in 'really'? that said the synth hook in 'ddu-du ddu-du' is so good that it ended up on the longlist anyway.

worst songs is tough. there's probably worse stuff i had no expectation for and promptly forgot and low budget stuff i ignored, but without thinking about it too hard:

5. Wanna One - Boomerang
anyone could have guessed that wanna one was going to be a low effort cash grab, but 'energetic' gave me hope, damn it.

4. S.I.S - Say Yes
they had a really good song last year, one where there voices weren't overproduced to the point where they all sound the same.

3. Weki Meki - La La La
i almost forgot this was this year. it's like their debut song, but i don't think it's even a guilty pleasure for anyone like that one was. they made good with 'crush' at least.

2. Stray Kids - N/S
i'm sorry stray kids, i hate this and skip it every time, but they looked like they were having fun in the video they filmed for it at least.

1. Winner - Everyday
see above about YG and yolosweg. fuck all the autotune, and this chorus. winner went trendy last year too, but still had some good songs. they were my favourite YG group at debut, because they were like a ballad group that accidentally debuted under YG, and took on just the right amount of the brand.

BTS's output didn't resonate with me as much this year, but i'm glad i got at least one in there.

agreed on e'dawn, since his parts were the highlights of several of my favourite pentagon songs, but their latest album was still good, and no sense getting hung up on all that. i think they've found their identity this year, and i look forward to what they do next. also, maybe a kino title track?

the drama around shaun's song really overshadowed the song itself, which is a shame.

there aren't caps or anything, but i try for a varied list where i can. a farcry from when these use to be top 20s with like 4 beast songs in the top 10.

also, some numbers:

number of artists represented: 65 (minus up to 3 if you want to combine NCTs or Loona projects)
by female artists: 60
by male artists: 40

number of b-sides: 21
most songs from one group: Golden Child at 4 songs (tied with Loona if you're combining those)
most songs from one company: Cube and SM both at 11 songs
rest of the big 3 -
JYP: 7 songs
YG: 3 songs (i guess a song from mixnine counts here)

songs from 2018 rookies: 22

noting the last one to say what a great year it's been for debuts.

i am not, mostly because there are way too many group where i don't pay attention to their japanese releases at all.

but shout-out to:

Gfriend - Memoria


and this, though a korean version came after:

Twice - BDZ

this is more to my taste than 'red', but either way yeah, great as always. 'best mistake' still reigns supreme.

other stuff:

Nature - You'll Be Mine (Genie Extreme Live)


digging nature a lot lately. going to have to learn their names soon (i only know lu).

Yesung x Chungha - Whatcha Doin'


i like yesung's voice but his solo work tend to be dull ballads and this isn't, so thank you chungha, probably.
