Why First Songs Work Best

I’ve found that early K-pop tracks from 2009-2012 are top group picks for hidden karaoke fun. Songs like BIGBANG’s “Haru Haru” and 2NE1’s “I Don’t Care” have good speeds and clear singing lines that are easy for anyone. For pairs, try BOL4 & BAEKHYUN’s “Some” or ZICO & IU’s “SoulMate” – they’re made for taking turns singing. Big group songs like TWICE’s “TT” and Girls’ Generation’s “Gee” have easy, catchy parts that all can sing. The trick to these songs is seeing their simple ways and built-in moments for all to join in. 이 가이드에서 자세한 정보 확인하기

While new K-pop songs have big sounds and many singing bits, early stuff from 2009-2012 stays super easy for karaoke. I’ve seen that songs from groups like BIGBANG, 2NE1, and Girls’ Generation have simple tunes you can get after a few tries. The singing parts are clear, missing the fast raps or sound effects in new songs.

Take 2NE1’s “I Don’t Care” or BIGBANG’s “Haru Haru” – these tunes keep a good beat and have easy-to-remember chorus parts that don’t need you to be a spot-on singer or to mix voices. I’ve noticed these older groups put out clean, easy-to-sing lines that make casual singing fun. The music breaks also give you time to take a breath.

Also, early songs mostly stick to simple song parts, making them better to follow on karaoke screens. I keep coming back to songs like Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry” or Wonder Girls’ “Nobody” because they have that mix of fun and easy tunes without the need for big skills.

Simple Dance Moves Anyone Can Do

Three basic K-pop dance moves are everywhere at karaoke spots thanks to their easy-to-copy moves. I’ve watched many new folks get Wonder Girls’ “Tell Me” hip move, Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry” hand move, and TWICE’s “TT” hand poses in no time.

These moves work as they are much like stuff we do day by day. The “Sorry Sorry” thing is just like washing hands, while TWICE’s “TT” is the well-known crying face. You don’t need to be a dancer – just move a bit and give it a go.

I find these moves best since they focus on the upper body, letting singers stay put by the mic.

Showing pals these moves, I make it four steps at a time. “Tell Me” hip move is just two steps left and two right, while “Sorry Sorry” mixes hand rubbing with pointing. Even TWICE’s “TT” is just fingers near your eyes. These moves pull people in, changing solo bits into big group fun, looking much like how K-pop karaoke works today.

Crowd-Pulling Group Choruses

K-pop’s good group choruses bring magic when many voices mix, creating must-join moments. Songs like TWICE’s “TT” and “Fancy” are top picks for group singing, with their repeating parts that even folks new to Korean can keep up with. The tip is to pick choruses with English words set right, making it simple for all to join.

For big impacts, I say go for BTS’s “Dynamite” and BLACKPINK’s “How You Like That,” where the choruses have clear, strong sounds that make breaks easy to catch. These tunes also have back-and-forth bits, letting you split your karaoke group into sides for extra fun.

Don’t miss big-group favorites like Girls’ Generation’s “Gee” or Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry.” Their choruses use catchy sound bits (“gee gee gee” and “sorry sorry sorry”) that bring everyone together. I’ve seen these repeating bits help when you have K-pop fans and new folks mixed, as they make it easy for all to get into it and have fun.

Top Duet Songs You Might Not Know

Beyond well-known hits, some K-pop pairs have great duets great for karaoke. “Some” by BOL4 and BAEKHYUN has a nice folk-pop tune and even singing bits that don’t go too hard for new singers.

For those who want something with more going on, try ZICO and IU’s “SoulMate,” which mixes rap and singing while keeping a good middle speed groove.

If you’re sure of your singing, go for Davichi and T-ara’s “We Were in Love.” The strong ballad tune lets both singers shine without taking over each other’s spotlight.

For a modern R&B vibe, DEAN and Baek Yerin’s “Come Over” has smooth mixes and chatting-style verses that work well when you’re singing up close in a karaoke spot.

I’d practice Heize and GIRIBOY’s “DAYDREAM” if you want a mix of rap and singing – it’s set up so both can pick their style while keeping the song’s deep feel. These tunes stand out for their sound quality and easy karaoke setups, making them top for duets.

Starting to Say Korean Words Right

While those duets are great to sing, knowing how to say Korean right pushes your karaoke fun up. I’ve found that starting with key vowel sounds makes a big difference. Start with “ah” (아), “eh” (에), “oh” (오), and “eu” (으) – these are in nearly every K-pop song.

For sounds at the start of words, I try out “g/k” (ㄱ), “d/t” (ㄷ), and “b/p” (ㅂ). They come soft and hard, which you’ll hear clearly in songs. Pay special mind to the unique “ng” (ㅇ) sound often at the end of Korea words.

One trick I use: break song words into sound groups rather than single letters. For example, in “saranghae” (사랑해), focus on “sa-rang-hae” as clear parts.

I see that double sounds like “kk” (ㄲ) or “pp” (ㅃ) need a bit more push when you say them – think of them as strong types of their single pals.

When practicing, I tell people to record themselves and compare it to the original song. This shows parts where you need to fix how you say things.

Songs That Get The Party Going

When lighting up the party vibe, some K-pop tunes always get everyone moving. I’ve seen that TWICE’s “Fancy” and “TT” are great as openers, with their fun hooks and easy speed for those new to it. These songs get things lively fast without being too hard for first-time singers.

For keeping the vibe strong, I’d try PSY’s “Gangnam Style” and BLACKPINK’s “DDU-DU DDU-DU.” Their repeating parts and known dance bits pull the group together, while their steady beats keep things moving even after drinks. BTS’s “Dynamite” also fits well here, with its English words making it easy for those not speaking Korean.

When you want to really set off the party, BIGBANG’s “Fantastic Baby” and 2NE1’s “I Am The Best” never miss. Their big beats and anthem-like vibes turn any space into a dance spot. I’ve seen EXO’s “Love Shot” and Red Velvet’s “Red Flavor” work super well as ending tunes, ending on high energy with easy-to-sing tunes that leave all wanting more. Service for Your Party

How to Harmonize Even Better Together

Singing together adds a whole new layer to K-pop karaoke, making party songs group shows. I’ve found that good group singing in K-pop starts when you pick parts based on each one’s singing range. For songs with many parts like BLACKPINK’s “How You Like That” or BTS’s “Butter,” I split the verses between singers while coming together for the chorus.

When showing how to mix voices, I stress seeing the main bits of the song. In TWICE songs, for example, you split the known three-part mixes between your best singers. One should take the main tune while others add notes around. I say start with the chorus, as that’s where you mix sounds best.

For timing, I always say pick one to lead, who can give cues and keep everyone together. Listen well to the music back sounds, and don’t shy away from making big mixes a bit simple – even K-pop stars change their live shows. Start with easier songs like Red Velvet’s “Red Flavor” before trying hard ones like aespa’s “Next Level.”
