K-pop songs that sound like a Cartoon Show OST

When you listen to K-POP songs, sometimes -- don't you feel like they just belong in an animation? Particularly, it should probably be the opening song of an Asian (or non-Asian) cartoon animation song! Today, we'll be checking out a few songs that just belong in animated cartoons as their OST (original soundtrack!) 

Imagine you are back in your adolescent days and think you're in front of the television, watching a Korean animated show. If you have no idea what that looks like, it can be any animated cartoon show! Then play these songs -- one by one, and think if they actually belong in a cartoon show! Let's check out the list below.

SEVENTEEN - Run to You

When this song was first released, people were in awe at how it matched the Japanese animation "Kimino Nawa!" Check out this song if you're into those vibes.

DREAMCATCHER - Fly High

Dreamcatcher is already famous for their angelic song, but this one HAS to be one of the most cartoon-OST-esque songs released by the group.

GFriend - Rough

Gfriend's Rough was one of the biggest hits in 2016, reaching #1 on Melon's Year-End charts. One of the many reasons the song was popular was because it really reminded people of their school days and the animated cartoon themes from the mid-2000s.

ONF - New World

The hopeful lyrics and melody make this a perfect song to see in a cartoon as its opening song!

N.Flying - FLOWER FANTASY

This song definitely belongs in an Asian cartoon show -- it's a flower fantasy that no one can resist.

Oh My Girl - The Fifth Season

This song made people think of an animation cartoon so badly that one person uploaded a perfectly synced animation opening matched with this song. And the most shocking part -- that video itself has 1.5 million views. Check out that video here! 

TXT - Can't You See Me?

A perfect song that describes the thrill and nervousness when the magical moment ends, and we're in front of the burning world! 

Lovelyz - Destiny

Another great song that a fellow K-POP listener mixed and matched with the oh-so-popular Sailor Moon!

What are your thoughts on this list? Do you think these songs really make you think of cartoon shows? Nevertheless, these are some great tracks to check out when you're feeling excited. They are all definitely hopeful and maybe get you to turn on your favorite childhood animated cartoon show!
