TIME revealed their top 10 songs of the year and the song ranks among big songs of the 2013 such as "Cups", "Royals", "We Can't Stop", and "Get Lucky". Girls' Generation is the only Korean artist on the list.

The nine-woman South Korean group Girls' Generation is a ridiculously effective hook machine, and a major phenomenon in Asia, whose biggest pop acts make One Direction and Katy Perry sound like audience-alienating avant-gardists. If you like songs that do everything at once, go straight to YouTube and call up the over-the-top video for this monomaniacally charming hybrid of bubblegum, dubstep and hard rock, whose Korean lyrics are sprinkled with incongruous English phrases ("Ayo, stop, let me put it down another way").
