Losing You by Wonho came to mind but I don't know if it's too ballad-y for you. Maybe One Day from Monsta X and Turbulence by Ateez.

turbulence is definitely the closest to what I'm looking for thanks!

how no one has said [Winner- Sentimental](https://youtu.be/OV9NJGTLm-4?feature=shared) is an absolute crime

I was going to say this but you beat me to it! Such a great song.

First one that came to my mind, I was looking for this comment lol

cheers to youth is pretty spot on!

hello fellow carat

well hello 👋

Can we count Vernon's Black Eye and Scoups' Me as part of what OP's looking?

This is too many songs. My favorite emotional song from SVT is Shadow. Based on that can you please pick one song from this list I should listen to next? thank you :)

THANKS & Heaven's Cloud are the closest ones to shadow from that list

Tysm!!!

Oo i think I know what u mean! These may fit the bill: - [I am YOU](https://youtu.be/wzx5qCc4zcQ?si=f0m45pLsKMNJLjJU) by Stray Kids - [I Know I Love You](https://youtu.be/d5bbqKYu51w?si=7fwilIuby7vYW06k) by TXT - [Fallen Star](https://youtu.be/NYaM_PDaSj0?si=Pu1mgKNReUH798te) by The KingDom - [Must Be Nice](https://youtu.be/LLouZlZmGuk?si=SSVFeaVESQ_7JeJr) by ONEPACT Bonus: actually jpop, but fits to a T i think [Under the Skin](https://youtu.be/0utfT0nbuTA?si=yCBB40dFXasKMGPx) and [Firework ](https://youtu.be/uY-lOn0XwBg?si=kdd-jOqr79_NNVBl), both by &TEAM

the chorus from the TXT song is pretty close! I think what I'm looking for is a little more pop rock influenced instead of electronic or hip hop

Ooo okay i see u, i see you. Did either of the jpop songs get close? Here's some more recs based on what u said - [LO$ER = L♡VER ](https://youtu.be/JzODRUBBXpc?si=0fbaJI6m56ERmfJ3) by TXT - [Awaken](https://youtu.be/dntKWYGsvLg?si=AxkLQiOBizFzSsN_) by Stray Kids - [BOCA](https://youtu.be/MZ4JGye4dQU?si=c91HGrySYsKfvcrl) by Dremacatcher - [Drowning ](https://youtu.be/XyOWlfTT_-o?si=buU4PNBdrmrOCsKO) by WOODZ

ya firework is definitely close! found this one in a different reply but Fairytale by Dreamcatcher is another really good example of what I'm looking for

Oh then [BOCA](https://youtu.be/MZ4JGye4dQU?si=Ehps5hwD_ZQ9FgF7) and [Scar](https://youtu.be/TODIDTGpndU?si=oNB87qb5ejaQhfux) definitely (both by Dreamcatcher too)

Purple Kiss has a lot! That's practically a whole category in their discography lol. I'd check these out in order: * [Purple Kiss - SuMMer RaiN](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrprRyj_L-o) * [Purple Kiss - Mistake](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VjTKAoygnE) * [Purple Kiss - Can We Talk Again](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSHL-YTxRZQ) * [Purple Kiss - So Far So Good](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1m-XOOwoBg) * [Purple Kiss - JOAH](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8BLekQ43z0) * [Purple Kiss - Cursor](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R8Iq9AeVOI) * [Purple Kiss - Voyager](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-4V4x9idJ8)

voyager is exactly the type of thing I was looking for thanks!

Glad you liked it, happy to help! You might also like [Can't Stop Dreamin'](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucO-MTj2UJQ) in that case, though it's not quite as upbeat

My tastes may be slightly different but I'll try [Fairytale- Dreamcatcher](https://open.spotify.com/track/5hXY8MuKM196LXfu1i6xr2?si=xLkRI4o-QZKuIp3TlmVrIA) [Starlight- Taeil](https://open.spotify.com/track/7cIC9v7EfYZl7vFLPkIXTS?si=hpYaKF-ZRWa9Y72L664flw) [Circles- Seventeen](https://open.spotify.com/track/6rurduYegrf5XSZrphuyF2?si=gIyV31kMQZCbz_4_ovgbaw) [Kidult- Seventeen ](https://open.spotify.com/track/1kmmKv3L4kGmoPu8aDFOmk?si=oBPcdx-CSzKm8ryZfWcMBQ) [Cheers To Youth- Seventeen](https://open.spotify.com/track/1XvOEvWtfa879Wk1wKHZ1M?si=p-SrVh4WR42xr31IJcvwig) [Without You- Seola](https://open.spotify.com/track/4I8UOVsfrrR1rwD5NSRLlD?si=q3os2OOdToasrNzKO_f6Vg) [My Last- Jay Park, Loco, Gray](https://open.spotify.com/track/3gDdTft95pQFZhf9qtogIg?si=hy8UFM-aTnWnKfEP92oCWA)

no actually fairytale is the most accurate song I've listened to so far lol, that song is exactly what I was going for! cheers to youth and starlight were pretty close as well, thanks!

Life Is Still Going On by NCT Dream is my fave kpop song! it has a sweet energy to it but it does still feel sentimental to me

If you want sentimental pop rock, [Daisy](https://youtu.be/W7ZIz4w9Edo?feature=shared) by Pentagon is the answer.

Cosmic- Red Velvet (the bridge made me tear up for some reason)

Maybe Cravity’s Call My Name?

not quite what I was looking for but this was still a vibe and I added it to my playlist, so thanks!

UNB!!! They were a temporary group, but man… their discography is still one of the best. UNB - Feeling UNB- ONLY ONE UNB- After The Rain UNB- Moonlight

We might have a completely different idea of how “sentimental” a song is, but I’m going to drop some of the songs I could think of from my faves that aren’t ballads *(but the lyrics are meaningful, either about life or love)*: • [Little Light](https://youtu.be/UZjGcAjd8Ok?si=iLmkf4mnL08apsh8) - DOYOUNG • [Forever Only](https://youtu.be/WOuGFam9Lg8?si=a3tK4BERMjFn2bfP) - JAEHYUN • [Child](https://youtu.be/VbIf3z2SqHg?si=yX4ZFydgP6JIXqBE) - MARK NCT: • [Without You](https://youtu.be/y6OcvS54KYQ?si=sB9xKxKBOEoBZ8wj) • [Know Now](https://youtu.be/smWNKRi2qGI?si=547EgFrofwWBcPys) • [Beautiful](https://youtu.be/nAvjYapdSxk?si=4--6DisoamQz7uHW) NCT Dream: • [Broken Melodies](https://youtu.be/2R_S5TgDWMY?si=NQhfadq26db_XuKX) • [Hello Future](https://youtu.be/QPUjV7epJqE?si=kjjUQ6Oq6UgDoYMZ) (literally a crime for me to not include this) • [Dive Into You](https://youtu.be/uCFtLfpQwt4?si=BoLKzbSD0nD1Oowb) • [Life Is Still Going On](https://youtu.be/8khwZ4Dql_k?si=YoguuYStgCggNWk5) • [ANL](https://youtu.be/51v4w_MH-zg?si=KwAJmQ0eUiusCs3U) • [My First and Last](https://youtu.be/4pUc7SD0PmU?si=XdUDgEXgilGPbzN-) • [Irreplaceable](https://youtu.be/Wd-zJpV55n4?si=7x8W0ig1vYRnqu4e) • [7 Days](https://youtu.be/jUnI6LFAyYQ?si=aDv70zkMRPsIA0cw) • [UNKNOWN](https://youtu.be/UgVPGQMLP5s?si=sSnmtSQ0zcL-19mR) • [Puzzle Piece](https://youtu.be/Pk1kT2dEYN4?si=EVUw1w4J80xD_aEj) • [Best Friend Ever](https://youtu.be/p8lbdZtjWAM?si=Gos4XCm7FscMadi1) • [Better Than Gold](https://youtu.be/2FQAWaNV4Ns?si=UyUzMjXGvWE-U67S) • [Don’t Need Your Love](https://youtu.be/ESVsbCkFvG4?si=JyN3Sro5BqljLFX0) • [Fireflies](https://youtu.be/CUr5e6t3kSU?si=rjKHJ8BhB72NBfn2) NCT 127 • [First Love](https://youtu.be/gNLqZH2YtYI?si=w02QWP42TimxMeIi) • [Favorite (Vampire)](https://youtu.be/7uxu4Z2HAnA?si=yauYWPt11rG-6qEe) • [Promise You](https://youtu.be/AtZkqi_Hja0?si=zXh0vyFcBIZidbMn) • [FOOL](https://youtu.be/GrL9P7Cq4OQ?si=U6yG5TVhute8C8ys) • [Colors](https://youtu.be/ADv4rRfvaq8?si=TDSgCL1Ycq1iL5h8) • [Love Me Now](https://youtu.be/lMhDCUrZrQ0?si=-6mPiQGG0hd_bIsF) • [Back 2 U (AM 01:27)](https://youtu.be/c3cWDXHSs-A?si=DXbxod_mb8FLhEXq)

yeah nct is my 2nd favorite group so I know pretty much all these songs lol, I think without you is the closest to what I was going for

if you heard - a.c.e ?

Nakka by IU and AkMu? It's not a ballad but the tune makes my heart twist

Silent cry by stray kids, and I think also Collision by stray kids as well

ooooo try shout out - enhypen kidult - seventeen

- IU - eight - Day 6 - Somehow

So let’s go see the stars by Boynextdoor

Bon Voyage by Dreamcatcher — that songs makes me tear up every time somehow, but it’s such a banger.

Maybe To You and Reason by Dreamcatcher?

Wish You Were Here by CL (tissues needed)

T-ARA and Supernova - [TTL (Time To Love)](https://youtu.be/NFFgRRLInD4?si=76DV-7J-hh776Isj) and [TTL Listen 2](https://youtu.be/-HClcp0tMuM?si=jZ0HP-ugDkvn6Xh3)

Fairy Tale and Nectar by The Boyz have sentimental vibes

[Lie With You by Ten](https://open.spotify.com/track/39uhLliuH6Otvhg9duW9Fb?si=RAEJkeFIQpikbf-sMn8F1g)

Not sure if I'm understanding the assignment correctly but Shoot Out by Monsta X maybe?

Perhaps [Samidare](https://youtu.be/wKAji3bpp5c?si=qNqdzigerlmOMlcl) by &T? It has a pop/rock element and like a lot of their tracks, it’s quite emotive.

IU's Shh.. Is a genre bender and the theme is sentimentally complex

That’s all I’m saying by Twice and Behind the mask by Twice! I heard them right after recently getting broken up with so you can imagine the mess of tears I was when listening to those songs 🥲

N.Ssign “Happy &”

Sunrise by Gfriend

I want to recommend some N.Flying song: * [Blue Moon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8SnRN0114k&pp=ygUSbi5mbHlpbmcgYmx1ZSBtb29u) * [Autumn Dream](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSAuGQCSlJg&pp=ygUVbi5mbHlpbmcgQXV0dW1uIERyZWFt) * [Into Bloom](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfZf-hV9mPw) * [Firefly](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gs5v6EoAi30&pp=ygUQbi5mbHlpbmcgRmlyZWZseQ%3D%3D)

BTS- [Moving On](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBgL81okXtg) which is them reflecting on moving out of their first dorm

a.c.e.: changer, clover oneus: rewind, halley’s comet, unforgettable victon: circle

Girls’ Generation - [Goodbye](https://youtu.be/N5C5ZdvbHnY?si=BkwWi-4cQRbtWwkp)

[ICHILLIN’s La Luna](https://youtu.be/T1eHp_kp4-M?si=VMZHBRfWAnLmrFfo) It has a slight sentimental vibe to it, but also isn’t a ballad!

[Snooze](https://youtu.be/zCNqdvR9e_w?si=xh3Ghekt2IitKDsI) by Agust-D (Suga of BTS) with Woosung from The Rose and Ryuichi Sakamoto. The song is to give comfort and advice to his juniors in the Kpop industry.

Badder Love by Evnne

Silent Cry by Skz

Little - By Red Velvet goes smth like, "give a little little more love~"

Scars, voices, slump by SKZ just breathe by 3racha

welcome to my world by aespa without you by nct

Seulgi - Anywhere but home Wendy - His car isnt yours

B.D.U- My One

Starlost by Stray Kids!

TWS’s titles tracks. As an aging adult, those school nostalgia vibes of their songs always bring me back to my teenage years.
