The 2018 K-Pop anthem, ‘Love Scenario,’ is back on the trends once again!

iKON ended 2022 and welcomed the new year 2023 with a bang as they left YG Entertainment and signed together at 143 Entertainment as a group, which is definitely a bold move and probably one of the most historical moments in the K-Pop scene. As K-pop fans can attest, what iKON did — leaving together and signing together in one company without having to rebrand is not a common thing to happen in the industry. This new chapter of iKON has been nothing but a promising start, with an announced April comeback under the new agency and a rumored Asian tour. 

Since iKON left the company, they’ve been noticeably trending without them having to do an effort for it, which might be the universe’s way of telling the group and their fans that only good days await them. To mention one, iKON’s 2018 hit song ‘Love Scenario’ is currently trending on the social media platform TikTok, thanks to a new dance challenge started by a user. The dance challenge even made the official Twitter account of TikTok Korea summon the iKON members to do the challenge themselves, to which member Kim Jinhwan was happy to oblige!

‘Love Scenario’ remains the biggest hit song of iKON to date. But if you’re going to ask fans what is their top favorite iKON song, you might not hear the 2018 hit song as their answer, which led us to write this list. iKON has a very diverse discography. And if you are particularly a sucker for mid-tempo Hip-Hop songs and songs with nostalgic feels, which are the main characteristics of ‘Love Scenario,’ then iKON still has many to offer. Without further ado, here are other iKON songs you can add to your playlist if you enjoy listening to ‘Love Scenario.’

1. FOR REAL?

The newest offering of iKON on the mid-tempo Hip-Hop genre, ‘FOR REAL?’ is wrapped in a rhythmic guitar and smooth percussion, carries the ear-worm of the song you can never escape (good luck on getting rid of the tatata~ from your head). The sweet vocals and laid-back rapping will make you giggle, and unlike ‘Love Scenario,’ which is actually a breakup song hidden in an upbeat track, ‘FOR REAL?’ will also make your heart flutter with its lyrics.

2. BUT YOU

Speaking of a nostalgic song, the title track of iKON’s latest album ‘FLASHBACK’ might be their representative. ‘BUT YOU’ embodies this sad and longing love but masked as a fun dance track, and this contrast, the fun, upbeat song with sad lyrics is actually iKON’s blueprint.

3. All The World

A fun and lively song that tells a story about a love that feels like an addiction, ‘All The World’ captures that passionate young love packaged in its poetic lyrics and in its melodic and rhythmic track. Take a look at the romantic and cheesy side of iKON with ‘All The World,’ is very different from the Hip-Hop image the group usually carried.

4. Holding On

Another song of iKON that brings out nostalgia, ‘Holding On’ tackles a story of moving on over a painful breakup though it was barely just holding on. However, you won’t really realize ‘Holding On’ is actually a breakup song on the first listen, which is its charm. The lively and vibrant track is too refreshing of a breakup song, and its catchy and trendy instrumentation makes it easily a favorite song, whether you are going through a breakup and just holding on to something or not.

5. Rubber Band

Another breakup song disguised as a lively upbeat track, ‘Rubber Band,’ likens a relationship that is on the verge of breaking up to a rubber band that is about to snap hence the song title. However, the bright tone and playful performance might fool you of the actual subject matter of the song, as if iKON is not singing about a falling apart relationship. This actually makes 'Rubber Band' more beautiful.

One of the delights of being an iKON enjoyer is that we get to enjoy different genres from one artist, and this is why iKON’s discography deserves a little dig. ‘Love Scenario’ is definitely a good start into stanning iKON!
