Underrated K-pop songs/groups or solo artists

Today, while listening to music, I realized that there are so many great songs out there, but sadly, not all of them get the recognition they deserve. Share K-pop songs, groups, or solo artists that you think are underrated. I will start first.

The Rose
Take Me Down & Red

I was so impressed when I first heard these two songs today. I was shocked to see that these two songs are not as famous as they should be,

I love The Rose, all their members got back from their military service earlier this year so they will be releasing new music, they released Childhood 6 days ago. Just in case you arenโ€™t aware their fandom name is Black Rose

I could totally spam your topic with The Rose content, but Iโ€™ll refrain. LOL

Isnt The Rose pretty popular though? Or am I just too much of a kpop addict? โ€œSheโ€™s in the Rainโ€ is a song ive heard in many places, so I thought theyโ€™re popularโ€ฆ

Bands are usually criminally underrated. N.Flying, ONEWE, The Roseโ€ฆ all really good k-bands

The Rose are popular internationally, very underappreciated in Korea, even for a band I think.

Zion T is a solo artist. Some of his songs are well known but he deserves more recognition about is talent. All his albums are awesome with a big work. Here I share an acoustic version live of all his grand songs. Please appreciate this man. https://youtu.be/cc-P6NKpMpk![IMG_20220924_114455|380x499](upload://hlBthR1dJqel5ldgfbeTNKlJISj.jpeg)

Yes! I actually heard it while I was going deep into the rabbitโ€™s hole. Such an amazing son, and their voices are so relaxing.
@vivi_1485 Actually, I donโ€™t know, but personally I had never heard of them until I came across โ€œTake me downโ€. It should be a crime to not pay attention to such amazing bands.

The absolute truth! I am a huge fan of N.Flying, and it kills me that people do not appreciate their talent more.

Great choices. Here are a couple of my faves:

This one is a love song directly to their fandom N.Fia:

โ€œE-yoโ€

And this one needs to be heard live to appreciate the full effect:

โ€œFlashbackโ€

You KNOW a group is awesome when their live performances sound better than the studio versions! :star_struck:

Is Gaho underrated? I havenโ€™t seen people really appreciate the guy as a vocalist much - though everyone knows his Itaewon Class and Start Up OSTs. I REALLY enjoy his live band singing

He keeps complaining that he is :joy:

Really? :joy::joy: Do you have any videos with him saying that? :laughing:

One of my favorite songs


His rock band versions of songs are sooo good

His latest MV:


Heโ€™s still exploring genresโ€ฆ this one seems to be electronic pop or something. I love how long it takes me to be able to sing the chorus properly :joy: So much vocal dancing lol exactly why I love him :heart:

707K YT subscribers. Iโ€™d say that is criminal.

Or that people donโ€™t recognize him face-to-face. Sometimes that includes his fans :laughing:
