                        Favorite 2022 Korean Album Releases

khamat — hunjiya

this album is sonically so so beautiful! the r&b-pop hybrid is trendy (which can be a strength and a weakness) but this album has amazing build up that i cannot ignore. the narrative of zillennial’s blustery self-assuredness with the tracks all in capital letters - ending with last month’s rent in lowercase as the dawning realization of adulthood and growing out of friends and your childhood home. yeah...i’ll drink to that. the best engineered album of the year.

neap paradise — shin hae gyeong

one of my faveeee rock releases of the year. the arrangement of this album is so pleasing as you delve longer and longer in its psychedelic soundscape. it’s also a little reminiscent of korean indie sounds in the early 2010s which mayhaps colored my bias to this album. in addition, there are sooo many individual hooks across this album: when the guitar solo ripssss in Vandalism? the toy laugh at the end of Kaleidoscope? the descending chords in My Chronos? *chefs kiss*

piece of space — kaiavant

this album is soooo sexy...like how can you make marimba in the opening track sound alluring? she did it though! speaking about a shattered, unstable relationship, this alt-r&b is splendidly built and shows so much potential for kaiavant. the track woo hoo (feat. kid milli) is a star. if you’re a fan of bibi’s sound, do check her out!

evergray — jiwoo

his previous album ‘esprit’ got him on my to watch list and he delivered this year!! moody, introspective, and downbeat, this album is wonderful for those searching for a slow night and jiwoo’s voice perfectly emulates the toxicity of lust, love, and breakups. like a dark curtain of rain, it ensconced you in the melodrama if you let it.

nameless things — xeuda

decided to check this album since it was co-produced by cacophony and it didn’t disappoint! if you decide to listen to this album in one sitting, it’s so artful at how it slowly unravels from being defensive in sharing to you the true nature of its artist (her anxiety) and slowly opens up to a crescendo of a frenzy and ends like a grey cast in the aftermath of a storm.

life goes on — orange flavored cigarettes

might be a ~vibey entry to the list but the funk production flares (the underwater effect in kontrast, the reverb in that’s all i want) makes it distinct against its similar bands. this was in constant rotation for the summer for the slow summer nights with its ambient vocals. highly rec check out their other 2022 singles, especially noah.

a.k.a YAYA — yaya kim

this is an insaneeeee album from start to finish. with 33 tracks (yes that’s right!!!!), this album is indulgent, effusive, and operatic in its splendor. it’s magnificent, dark, and seductive which completely matches yaya kim’s husky voice. a concept album for a noir film that doesn’t exist, if you will. from the opening track, it asks you to let down your apprehension and enjoy the velvet-textured, wonderfully performed ride to its completion.

damage — kim doeon

i do love me some experimental albums and this album introduced me to the delightful name of the genre ‘folktronica’. while it’s more ambient than what i prefer, i’ve had this album on replay to able to parse something new with each listen. it’s soooo funky, fresh, and pleasant and it’s production is very evocative of a charming indie pixel game. Green Screen is my fave track of the year.

ㅠㅠ — gonggonggoo009

when this album starts, it does not let up! it’s 40 mins long album and uses it  expeditiously and excellently. the tracks are delightfully groovy at times, addictive in a few, and GOES HARD that you will not fatigued by the end of the runtime. and i know the man has become persona non grata (for good, good reasons) but it will be remiss not to mention the influence of kanye’s my beautiful dark twisted fantasy in this album’s production (the tracks monster, walk and polar bear are pretty obvious - and no, it’s not just because of the autotune). however, as the album goes on it does evolve to take on more of kendrick’s work (concentration is the best track imo). fave khh album of the year, don’t miss out.

♡ ♡ ♡ 

honorable mentions: all of ive’s singles, conch’s hurry up!, kwon eun bi’s lethality, slom’s weather report, rocket punch’s flash, bibi’s lowlife princess: noir, youha’s love you more, newjeans’ hype boy, baek yerin’s pisces, lucid fall’s voice beside guitar, dpr ian’s moodswings in to order

yknow what am finally gonna make a pinned post

if you like bts + similar artists (including more alternative/indie Korean artists and some Chinese artists) and/or pride art in general stuff (esp fandom related) then check out my shops! 💜 I have MANY different things on my redbubble and etsy both designs and product options wise; I also have some of my flags I've made uploaded on my redbubble as pins and stickers! My etsy is mostly pride flag kandi/beadwork (+ rainbow loom now), bts kandi, and some print-on-demand stickers and pins! :] I have a lot of stuff that is bts/kpop related but also a lot that isn't! But almost everything is queer related. :D

yujihi: empty love english translation

lyrics:

알고 싶어요 무슨 생각 하고 있는지 듣고 싶어요 내게 차마 하지 못한 말 i want to know what you're thinking about i want to hear the words you couldn't bring yourself to say to me 나는 너무 못돼서 늘 실수만 하죠 다들 나를 알고서 떠나고 싶어 해요 because i'm so inadequate i always just make mistakes after getting to know me everyone wants to leave

또 무언가 사라지는 소리가 들린 것 같아요 또 누군가 울고 마는 소리가 들린 것 같아요 왜 난 할 수 있는 게 없죠 i think i hear the sound of something disappearing again i think i hear the sound of someone crying again why is there nothing i can do

보고 싶어요 나를 볼 때 그의 표정을 안고 싶어요 아무 일도 아니라는 듯 i miss the expression on your face when you see me i want to hug you as if nothing's wrong

난 늘 그래왔어요 채워지지 않아요 떠오르는 마음은 가라앉혀야 해요 난 더 비워둬야만 해요 i'm the same way i've always been it's not filling up the feelings that are coming up have to calm down i have to empty them out 또 무언가 시작되는 소리가 들린 것 같아요 또 누군가 떠나가는 소리가 들린 것 같아요 아 난 할 수 있는 게 없죠 i think i hear the sound of something beginning again i think i hear the sound of someone leaving again ah, there's nothing i can do

또 무언가 끝이 나는 소리가 들린 것 같아요 또 누군가 찾아오는 소리가 들린 것 같아요 아 난 더 나아가고 파요 i think i hear the sound of something ending again i think i hear the sound of someone coming by again ah, i want to move forward
