Ultimate K-pop Summer Song Final Match-Up: The Winner

Posted on July 17, 2021 by Nick • 30 Comments

Over the past three weeks, we’ve been voting on a series of K-pop summer songs. Throughout the match-ups, we’ve seen titans fall and underdogs rise. It all culminated in yesterday’s final battle, where SHINee’s View went up against Golden Child’s Let Me. So… which track won? Well, the Goldenness have descended. I guess I shouldn’t … Continue reading →

Congratulations to Golden Child’s Let Me! As expected, yesterday’s match-up against ATEEZ was a tight one. Both fan bases came out, but Golden Child squeaked by with 54.3% of the vote. And with that, we have our finalists! This is the big one, folks! Today, we’ll decide on The Bias List‘s inaugural Ultimate K-pop Summer … Continue reading →

Congratulations to SHINee’s View! We have our first finalist, as the song garnered a huge 69.1% of the vote. We’ve got one more match-up before that final battle, and today we’ll decide SHINee’s opponent. Will it be ATEEZ’s Wave or Golden Child’s Let Me? I honestly have no idea. Both tracks have done well in … Continue reading →

Congratulations to Golden Child’s Let Me! The song easily moves onto the semi-final with a whopping 68.5% of the vote. Based on last week’s results, I would have expected this match-up to be much tighter. But, these polls are proving to be a bit unpredictable! We’re onto the semi-final now, with two of our heavyweights … Continue reading →

Congratulations to ATEEZ’s Wave! This was a tough fight, with Sistar leading through much of the day. But, ATEEZ turned things around and ended up snatching victory with 54.6% of the vote. Pour one out for Sistar, everyone. They would have gotten my vote! We’re down to our last match-up in this second round of … Continue reading →

Congratulations to f(x)’s Hot Summer! The girls trounced their competition last Friday with 71.1% of the vote. Next, it’s on to the semi-finals against SHINee’s View. Before that, we’ve got another big match-up on our hands. I’m very curious about how today’s battle will go. On one hand, we’ve got an immensely popular new-gen group … Continue reading →

Congratulations to SHINee’s View! With 62.3% of the vote, the song triumphed over Red Flavor and moves onto the semi-final. Even though the result wasn’t as close as I thought it would be, this was still a very tough match. I hate to see Red Flavor go, but I’m delighted for View. Today, it’s the … Continue reading →

Congratulations to Astro’s Breathless! This is a fantastic song, and a personal favorite of mine. But, I’m a little salty with this result because it happened in the exact way I’ve been trying to prevent. I’ve deliberately kept artist names and hashtags off of the polls because I didn’t want an artist’s fan base discovering … Continue reading →

Congratulations to Golden Child’s Let Me! Honestly, I was expecting the song to get annihilated by BLACKPINK, but the voting was neck-and-neck all day. Eventually, Let Me pulled ahead with 61.1% of the vote. We’re down to the final match-up in this first round of the bracket. It’s the battle of the boy groups, as … Continue reading →

Congratulations to Sistar’s Loving U! This was a slightly tighter race than I’d anticipated, but the song scored an easy victory with 64.7% of the vote. Next up, we have a duel between two tracks with quite opposite charms. It’s BLACKPINK‘s 2017 hit As If It’s Your Last versus Golden Child’s Let Me, which came … Continue reading →

Kicking off a new week, we’ve got a battle of two summer classics. B1A4’s 2014 track Solo Day squares off against Sistar’s Loving U from 2012. These … Continue reading →

Congratulations to SHINee’s View! Although the margin wasn’t quite as big as Monday’s match-up, the track beat WJSN’s Boogie Up by a convincing 69.3%. That means, next round the song will go up against Red Flavor. That’s going to be a pretty momentous match-up! Speaking of match-ups, we’re on to the third duel. This time, … Continue reading →

Congratulations to Red Velvet’s Red Flavor! The song easily bested UP10TION’s Tonight with 86.4% of the vote. Honestly, I’m not surprised. I absolutely adore Tonight, but even I would have voted Red Flavor on this one. It’s just a mammoth summer single.
