The word iconic is defined as being widely recognized by people.

There are so many songs to pick, but these are some of the most iconic ones.

(Note: The oldest songs are the ones on the top of the lists. I also don’t want to add too many old songs.)

Male K-pop Groups:

SORRY SORRY – SUPER JUNIOR

A classic, a must-listen for new K-pop fans.

Ring Ding Dong – SHINEE

To be honest, I believe it’s the group’s most iconic song.

You can also add Lucifer to this list!

MIROTIC – TVXQ!

Some K-pop fans say it’s a crime to not know this song.

BANG BANG BANG – BIG BANG

One of their very iconic songs.

Fantastic Baby – BIG BANG

Kinda like Gangnam Style, very addictive.

Growl – EXO

One of EXO’s most iconic songs!

DNA – BTS

This was very popular and contributed a lot to their popularity nowadays.

Actually just listen to most of BTS’ songs, almost all of them are iconic.

Don’t Wanna Cry – SEVENTEEN

The choreo and the song, a masterpiece. I believe this is their most iconic song.

Just Right – GOT7

You rarely see GOT7 with a cute concept. This is one of their most iconic comebacks.

Love Scenario – iKON

This song won song of the year and holds the record for the most weeks at number one, from what I’ve heard.

Energetic – WANNA ONE

The debut song of the first boy group formed by PRODUCE 101, very iconic and catchy.

Shine – PENTAGON

The dance played a huge role in this song’s success.

Love Shot – EXO

Just listen to it and watch the music video. 

Cherry Bomb – NCT 127

One of their most iconic if not the most. The song is very catchy and the choreo at the end though.

Female K-pop Groups:

Into the New World – Girl’s Generation

They call this the anthem of K-pop fans, if I’m not mistaken.

Gee – Girl’s Generation

A classic.

Nobody – Wonder Girls

Back then, I’d hear this song all the time on the radio.

I AM THE BEST – 2NE1

Very iconic. Never going to forget this song.

Bad Girl, Good Girl – miss A

I’ve seen many covers of this!

Miniskirt – AOA

The choreo of this one is really special.

One of their most iconic songs. It also hit a billion views on YouTube.

KILL THIS LOVE – BLACKPINK

Their other very iconic song.

Touch My Body – SISTAR

Like Love Shot, just watch the music video. 

Me Gustas Tu – GFriend

Their most popular song and personally, it makes me really happy whenever I listen to it.

BBoom BBoom – MOMOLAND

This song was played all around the world, it seemed like I heard it everywhere when this was newly released.

Red Flavor – RED VELVET

This was already a popular and iconic song from the first day it was released.

Their most popular song. Very cute!

Others:

PSY’s songs like Daddy, Gangnam Style, New Face

All of his songs are just iconic and popular to be honest.

A very sexy song. The vocals and dance, everything about it is hot.
