ENHYPEN: A Career In Song Ratings

There are a number of acts who have debuted in the past few decades and have dozens of song ratings on this blog. I thought it would be fun to lay these ratings out in chronological order, line-graph style, and take a macro view of their careers so far. Then, similar to my “Underrated K-pop” features, I can average their ratings into one mega-score and place them in a pantheon alongside other acts.

As always, this feature has some rules of its own. I’m including any “Song Review” ratings as part of this graph, including Japanese releases and collaborations with one other artist. I’m not including Buried Treasures or solo/sub-unit releases. For the ratings themselves, I’m using the most current number on this blog, so if a song was part of a “Risers and Fallers” or “Legendary Songs Inauguration” post, that’s the rating you’ll see displayed here. That means there will still be a few ratings here and there I find slightly inaccurate, but it’ll mostly reflect my up-to-date feelings.

Finally, these scores are completely subjective. Feel free to agree, disagree and argue (that’s part of the fun!), but know that this chart reflects the opinion of only one person (me).

  1. Was honestly expecting a lot lower tbh, but I’m glad it wasn’t as low as I might have thought it would be. They’ve definitely dropped some total duds but they’ve had some good songs in their discography even if they’re not elite level.

  2. Ah, I was hoping Enhypen would get one of these. They were my ult group for almost two years, so I thought it might be fun to try and make one too. I’m really bad at rating songs though lol, so this was kind of difficult.

    Let Me In (20 Cube) – 8.5

    I’m assuming Nick didn’t include Loose bc it doesn’t have an MV (even though it had a review)

    BTHB almost got a ten from me bc it was by far my most played and favorite song of 2024. At the peak of my Engene era their rating average definitely would have been in the nines.

    I wish Criminal Love had an MV/review bc it really deserves to be in here; 😭 it’s one of their best. Also shoutout to my favorite Enhypen song, Shout Out, which I couldn’t include here since it’s not a single. 

    Like f(x), Enhypen is a group whose strength lies in their consistently outstanding b-sides more so than their title tracks, so I feel that their singles alone don’t fully reflect how great their discography is. Enha covers a large variety of sounds and genres, and I always say there’s at least one Enhypen song for everybody.
