2014 Top 50 Korean Songs

To all the KPoppers who survived 2014's Kpopcalypse, congratulations! To all who did not survive, may your KPop fan-phase rest in peace. In spite of all the scandals and tragedies that have occurred the past year, let us look back on the positive things that Korean music has brought us this year and hope for a better year in 2015.

Last year I had done a Korean Music Video Countdown. But as I was looking through all the releases of this past year, there were just too many songs I could not pass up on mentioning. So I decided to do a Top 50 Countdown of what I deem to be the best songs of this year, based on my personal standards. This list includes mostly KPop, but also a mix of ballads, OSTs, hip hop, trot, and other genres.
