This list was formed by Do Heon Kim (music critic, ex-editor in chief of IZM, Korean Music Awards selection committee member), and Jang Jun-hwan, another well known Korean music critic. Its of course just one list among many coming out this time of year, but there were some interesting choices that I didn’t see on other lists, and I also thought a list made by Korean critics would be worth sharing

1. NMIXX – Papillon
-A couple surprises for me were Groundwork being the choice for KiiiKiii, and Come Over being Le sserafim’s entry rather than for ex HOT or Ash but still good choices IMO. I also preferred H2H The Chase over Focus.
-NMIXX had a hell of a year all around didn’t they? A lot of recognition from critics and of course on the charts with Blue Valentine.
-Happy to see Ten’s Stunner on here, great song and my solo artist SOTY.
They also have a video where they discuss each choice in more depth (in the link with the text list)
