Stray Kids, TWICE, and a sprinkle of magic? Count us in! K-pop stars know how to serve iconic tracks that will sparkle during the last few days of the year. Let’s unwrap this late Christmas list, with five iconic songs that give us all the right winter feels:
05. NCT Dream – “Candy”
NCT Dream put their fresh spin on H.O.T’s 1996 classic “Candy,” giving us an upgraded dose of ’90s sweetness. This track isn’t your traditional Xmas song, but it’s got festive vibes in spades as the lead single for their Christmas-themed EP.
04. EXO – “The First Snow”
EXO brought a soft, shimmery ballad, which TikTok turned it into a viral dance trend a year ago. But don’t get it twisted – this one’s about heartbreak under a snowy sky. Perfect for crying in front of the fireplace… Or next to your fridge at midnight?
03. Red Velvet & aespa – “Beautiful Christmas”
Talk about a powerhouse collab! Red Velvet and aespa joined forces to drop this dance-floor-ready holiday bop. Bonus points for its glittering vocals that make you want to wear a sparkly dress immediately!
02. Stray Kids – “Christmas EveL”
Leave it to Stray Kids to turn Christmas into a dark party! This edgy anthem is half sassy grinch, half chaotic fun. The best part? Felix steals the show, saying “I can feel the evil coming, but Felix never bad,” a lyric for the ages.
01. TWICE – “Merry & Happy”
TWICE understood the assignment with this cozy, classic holiday track. Think jingling bells, soft harmonies, and snowy sweetness on a chilly night.
