The backing track and melody are the same as the Japanese original from August. The English 'We are' turns into Korean, and the "I" and "you" the Japanese lyrics never used show up eight times each.

The second title track from KickFlip's fifth mini album. It starts on the very first line with no intro, goes empty for 3 seconds at 1:28, and flips one lyric in the last chorus.

A Mandarin-language single sung by two rock musicians from Korea and Taiwan. After "this city suffocates me," at 1:09 the sound jumps 5 dB and the song turns into what feels like another one.

YENA sings the chorus of the Block B original in place of the man who used to sing it. "You are" becomes "I am", the beat is 14% faster, and the song is 43 seconds shorter.

The kick that landed on every beat steps around it for 30 seconds from 1:52. As the bass drops out at 1:50, the performance video turns red, then black and white.

The band re-recorded 'Lie' from its June EP, playing together in Jeju. Where the original fades out quietly, the live take calls the band back in and ends at its loudest.

Right after 'How many times I stopped', the backing switches off and on in two-second blocks. Two of the song's few Korean lines sit in those gaps.

On the 'period' that closes each chorus, the drums and bass hold their breath for two seconds. At the end they never come back, leaving just one '마침표를' over the keys.

Lyrics written during military service, a title track chosen by fans. It steps up a semitone at 3:40 and sets down the drums and bass at 4:51.

'Voodoo Doll' appears 23 times in the lyrics. At 2:02 the sound drops sharply, then the final chorus at 2:08 is the loudest moment of the song. Plus the fan chant to shout at today's fan concert.

MINZY's first solo single in about four years and nine months: an R&B song where a voice that starts in a single line in the middle spreads wide with a choir. The signature move is sign language for "I can hear it".

A 2:19 battle of pride, traded back and forth in front of a single acoustic guitar. At 0:20 the guitar stops, and in the final second only the vocals remain.

A pre-release single that lays a little brass over a band sound. The chorus opens up at 0:37, and at 2:17 it spreads its widest before closing.

The sound opens wide from left to right, gathers in toward the voice, then swings wide open again at 2:52. It's the opening track of the second full-length album marking YESUNG's ten years as a solo artist.

Right before every chorus, it clears out the floor entirely, then fills it all back in at once. Listen to the eight seconds from 2:27 and you can hear exactly how this song was built.

The pre-release single that opens KIM FEEL's first full-length album in about seven years. Because the drums arrive late, the release feels wide.
