Not sure if there's a consensus pick yet but I *still* haven't gotten over the vocal arrangements on NCT U's "Baby Don't Stop" so that's probably going to be my highest-placing K-pop pick.
Other faves, mostly the same as what everyone else has posted: Red Velvet - "Bad Boy" (a real slow-burner for me but it's now kind of my favourite RV song? Weird.)SHINee - "Good Evening" Hyolyn - "SEESEA"TWICE - "What is Love?"Pentagon - "Shine"G)I-DLE - "HANN (Alone)"SF9 - "Now or Never"April - "Oh! My Mistake"
Also was this ever posted here? TSJ reviewed this a couple of weeks ago, and it's incredible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR5CtMLuiqQ

WINNER track is really fun! Seungyoon sounds good in that range and Mino's rap is really fun at that speed.
I like the BoA a lot too, SM stays on point with the Latin fusion tracks.

@Roz
SF9 - Now or Never is nice, and I think we forgot Super Junior - Lo Siento too! https://youtu.be/odl7J8Ms6MQ

Though how legitimate a list that doesn't include NCT U - Baby Don't Stop is, I don't know.
oh i'm glad that reminded me of SEVENTEEN - Thanks, i really love that one but keep forgetting to add it to my 2018 playlist

also See Sea is just the ideal tropical house track, so effortless and i love the vocal layering in the chorus so much

kpop 2019
here's a new thread

Holy crap guys, I got sick and didn't nominate anything for the 2018 year end list :(
I'm just about to check if it's on there, but the best kpop song of 2018 is Heize's Jenga. For some reason, I'd been thinking all this time that it came out last year. Hopefully someone else nominated it.

Not there, dang :( I'll just continue to talk about it up in this thread then, maybe one day I'll be able to forgive myself for not nominating this and First Sight.
