the iconic nugu songs every nugu stan should know 

playlist of the songs if anyone wants! open.spotify.com/playlist/7JbgEtIhsuEjY4eDhlcxeM?si=FGsbmq6pSlOoP6psjvHi7A guys please i know minx are deukae + many of the 2nd gen groups were more mid-tier than nugu in their prime. please read the disclaimer in the video 😭

"stand up if kville entertainment raised you" when i tell you i SCREAMED

and if I say 3rd gen era was the golden age of nugu bops

it's so funny how specific of an experience being a nugu stan is 😭 like even if you might not actually know everyone / aren't "that much" of one, even though everyone will come from different sides of the internet (not even twt necessarily), it's like these are somehow still all agreed upon

KNK was THE group back in the day

omg HINAPIA 😭 one of the worst casualties of the lockdown disbandments for sure. $5 and a dream 😭 RIP Pristin and Hinapia

I cant wrap my head around how dreamcatcher used to be minx back in the day , the concept change omg💀

Nature - Girls one of the best kpop songs ever i will not be taking any questions

This era of nugu boygroups is like... boy group royalty to me. I don't think a boygroup can release a catchier song than UNIQ's eoeo or Boys Republics' Get Down.

THE FACT THAT I KNOW 95% OF THESE SONGS IS JUST SAD, all of them deserve so much

Speed snuper & trcng biggest fumbles in history

People DO NOT understand how devastating the Hot Issue disbandment was. To this day I can't listen to kiof songs because of how badly that company treated Hot Issue.

BVNDIT was my ult, their discography is so small but full of absolute bangers

hot issue could've been so big, makes me want to cry when I think about it HOT ISSUE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS

NOBODY UNDERSTOOD SPICA LIKE I DID. I MISS THEM EVERY DAMN DAY.

jail for not adding nugudom by craxy, the song name speaks for itself it is THE nugu anthem

the way i listen to almost all of the ggs and had no idea they were nugu??? like wdym wooah, bestie, 9muses, alice, berry good, dalshabet, rainbow, laboum and secret are nugu with the absolute bangers they released…

I came here expecting to be disappointed but I was NOT. Seeing 2nd gen and 3rd gen nugu CLASSICS, my god I was SEATED for nearly all of them (and they real life hit me and I could no longer keep up with new releases). Kyungri my absolute KWEEN. Also I was there for HISTORY DEBUT!!!! I wasamong the very first ones!!!! So much of what you said is true though, we let all of them down I'm so sad.

Dr Feel Good went 65th platinum in my room. Rania deserved better (actually everyone in this list does, we were ROB of so many good groups...)

4:01 Ik you're looking at my APPLE HIIIIP remains iconic

NOT NEONPUNCH MY QUEENS😭😭YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED

iriwa was my intro into kpop girl groups and it still remains as good as the first day i heard it,, pink fantasy you are missed everyday🕊️💔

The nostalgic feeling that I have with this video omg 1team we will miss you😩

Honey, Demian deserves every sort of recognition istg. Omgt is THAT song, it's so quirky and different. And Senorita, I wasn't even there when it happened and the impact it had on me was HUGE.

Ofc Minx became dream catcher lol

this video made me realize that I actually listen to a lot of nugu

history's songs are so good

Seeing Secret, Sonamoo and TRCNG on the nugu list…TS really did all their artists dirty 😢

THERE R SO MANY SONGS I USED TO SHAKE MY ASS TO AND I FORGOT THEIR NAMES 💔💔 GLADLY THIS VIDEO MADE ME REMEMBER THE SONGS I USED TO LOVE

speaking of alice, summer dream is soo good (back when they were elris) like that is a summerbop song omggggggg. theres also this one laboum song , journey to atlantis it was and still is so good. shouldve secured their first win 🌝 i used to b so obsessed w bad girl by wooah and sometimes i get into my obssesed phase again

Superfly- 24K and Get Down - Boys Republic, were some of my kpop OG songs. And Knock? PURE GOLD

24K being blacklisted by the Korean president at the time was truly a cultural loss

black tinkerbell went platinum in my 15 year old bedroom!!! my obsession with that song is actually unhealthy!!! that song is the first nugu song i show any new k-pop stans i meet.

I'd also add Redsquare - Colorfull, it made everyone shook with the faceless MV and all their live stages were amazing!! The energy, the vocals...

9muses was not really a nugu group back then but their fame faded the time went by. Bestie has all the potentials: sing, rap, dance, stage presence. It’s such a shame they can’t make it big 😢. Maybe it’s because they’re under a small company. Also Hinapia, they’re so good that I wanted to scream the moment they announced their disbandment.

zea could write literally all her albums but could taylor swift write friday, saturday, sunday, mazel tov... didn't think so

MINX are Dreamcatcher before redebut. The nugu queens and more underrated girlband is 9MUSES. Their discography is gold.

Bro trust me I will NEVER get over Don't Tease Me

she bad is such a delicious song

that adya x ice spice remix was everywhere dawg... and i was a little obsessed idk!

the amount of lost talent and squandered potential in this video is INSANE. like nugudom truly is the backbone of the kpop industry and the best groups ever are paid DUST

watching this vid is so bittersweet omg all these groups deserve sm better and you have immaculate taste

i'm not ashamed to say that I know every single song that was in this video

the kyungri into laboum into ladies code had me GAGGED

this is so nostalgic and specific i love it. You reminded me of some songs that I've already forgotten :D

omg i need a playlist of all these songs so i can listen to them more often, these songs sound freaking amazing

The Unit that debuted UNB introduced to me some of the groups mentioned in this video such as Boys Republic, Imfact, A.C.E, U-Kiss, etc though I've already known Hotshot due to two of their members that were in PD101. Edward Avila's videos introduced me to VAV. And yes, Kville Entertainment's use of Cross Gene's song as their intro really made search what was the name of this catchy song. I first saw KNK when they were in Weekly Idol with Astro and another kpop group during their rookie days. I discovered History's "죽어버릴지도 몰라" and Uniq's "EOEO" when they were usually in the same list of videos titled "underrated kpop songs" or something similar. For The Ark, I found out about them when one of their members Kim Euna participated in The Unit as well and that she's really good in what she's doing. Their debut song "The Light" was amazing to listen to and it was very emotional to think that this was a debut song. I searched on why weren't they huge with their song and there were speculations that because of the Sewol Ferry tragedy (2014), their MV (2015) reminded people of that unfortunate incident so it wasn't a big hit at that time (( though a few years later when people were healing, the song caught people's eyes from what i've read online )) and also because one of the members injured their vocal chords (?) if I can remember that correctly. Pink Fantasy was because one of their members participated in one of the I Can See Your Voice episodes with Mamamoo as the guests.

la la la scratches my brain in the right way idk

GWSN MENTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is like the most comprehensible list of elite nugu songs how tf did you remember to put them all omg

So happy to see Dalshabet here JOKER YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS(also adding a fewnof these on my playlist and r.i.p hot issue)

Being into nugu groups is so painful, in the last 2-3 years I’ve watched like 5 of my favorite groups disband just because they weren’t popular enough. SKYLE is one of my absolute favorites and even though they have only had 1 true comeback other than their debut, they are most likely about to disband because they haven’t come back in almost 2 years (dangerous territory). Da da da is such a masterpiece from them, it is so sad to watch groups like these disband when they have such good music. Some of my favorite groups were Bling Bling Hot Issue Pink Fantasy Bugaboo GWSN (though could be argued not nugu) Although there are also some that are on the verge of disbanding such as SKYLE Ichillin Lightsum Weeekly (though also maybe not considered nugu, just sad after their success with After School) DreamNote (their song “Wish” is what got me into them and was so good. Luckily, they have just announced their next comeback so hopefully that means they won’t disband, although we won’t know until after this next comeback) It is so sad to watch these groups go after you grow such a connection to them. All you can do is wish the members luck on their future endeavors after disbandment, as sad as it is.

so many of these are absolutely essential kpop songs to me, i can’t imagine not listening to them

The TASTE in this video, my gods. TShit really could have had so much respect and instead they ran all of their idols into the ground

Majors's discography is immaculate. They were my go-to group whenever depression hit to get that bit of energy ... and Giddy Up, Salute and Dancing on my starlit night are just so freaking good

say my name by ans makes me unironically cry i loved them sm

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS

Snuper Platonic Love, Bigflo Upside Down, and Arario Topp Dogg are some of the best Kpop songs ever. Also, Bestie Excuse Me, BIG 123, Cross Gene Play With Me, UNIQ EOEO are some of the kpopiest songs. Just wanted to mention Halo OMG, Hinapia Drip, KNK knock, Playback Want you to say, Seven o Clock Echo, UNB Feeling are amazing.

Road Boyz - Show Me Bang Bang MVP - Take It Dorothy - Purple Lips Favorite - It's Mine Tahiti - Oppa You're Mine TST - Love Story Everything from Snuper before Tulips era S.I.S - Always be your girl

Oh the way Bappi has been on repeat since I first listened to it

i am a child of kville

i completely forgot dpr ian was in c-clown, i just remember jaejun lol

Fiestar's rapper was and is an amazing vocalist! Her solo songs are insane, I recommend gravity

this video just reintroduced me to some classics I'd forgotten about! 😭 9muses are still my ultimate nugu queens, they deserved so much better!

Well, minx becomes dreamcatcher is the best breakthrough to get out from nugudom. They did it tho

snuper’s platonic love remains 🔛🔝

I was a hardcore kpop stan till 2017 and then I stopped listening to music for a few years. I love how this video is so new, yet it almost perfectly summarizes many of my favorite bops from that time

I’ve had Bazooka stuck in my head since 2021.

I've never seen your channel before, but I wanted to let you know that your video is super awesome! I got into K-pop a year ago. I love nugu music! There are some artists in your list that I don't even know yet! Most of your songs are already on my playlist! And congrats on the number of views! What an enormous number of comments you have, too! Subscribed! 😄💕🎭🎶✨

thank you for promoting our nugu queens and kings

9:12 i have this in my playlist, woo ah has an immaculate discography, started stanning them before blush, best decision

I’ve been a K-pop fan since 2009 and I gotta say this is one of the best compilations I’ve seen. Like you’re REALLY a K-pop fan. Keep it up! ❤

Me waiting for bvndit's songs: 🤡😢

ALICE was one of the first groups I started listening to and I was so surprised when I realized they’re nugu 😅 bc I was like “well if *I* as a new K-pop fan know of them and their music is good they must be really popular hahaha (My bias was Karin)

ANS - Say My Name is another level

i loved all the songs mentioned here and the nostalgia hit so bad with some of these im crying can’t mention nugu gg excellence without mentioning fanatics… we love u milkshake and vavi girl also some more nugu 4th gen bg music including newkidd (rip shooting star and tu eres) plus bdc (my children) shoot the moon will always be remembered

feeling my beloved. one of my fav songs of all time ngl.

"touch" by anda was one of my favs

Every single one of these groups slayed and deserved SO much better!!!😭💕

sebin thumbnail = i click 😭

0:40 THE BEST✨✨❤️‍🔥

I saw Platonic Love on thumbnail, I click. Btw, minx redebut as dreamcatcher 😊 Halo has a lot of good songs! Also The Ark is legend🥹 VAV should be recognized more! As a longtime nugu stan, I'm so happy to see this content

i'm so happy to know a lot of them bc i literally exist for nugu group and their banger 😭😭😭

thank you for reminding me of these songs, just made a playlist. summer vibes all over ✨

honestly nugus have made the best kpop songs a lot of the times and i will never not be grateful for the nugus for still trying even while being on nugudom

Minx jumpscare 😳

Also, Tan's disbandment has hit me hard. They were supposed to be famous. I can't believe we lost them😭

I miss GWSN so much. Their discography is so good, no one understands me.

c-clown mentioned 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

you just made me remember so many songs omg…

Demian and tan are the best nugu for me

BLACK TINKERBELL!!! Chocolat had so much potential :(

CRAXY nugudom is a crazy good nugu song aswell, such an amazing group

gwsn dropped the best most cohesive while experimental redvelvet-esque discography, nobody cared and then they disbanded

And y'all can't tell that hyeonju from UNIS was on two of those mentioned groups (good day and cignature)

superfly seemed like a fever dream to me bc I remember listening to it back in 2017 (also, thanks for the video I'm adding everythiing to my playlists yaaay)

As a Dreamcatcher fan was not expecting to see Minx. Jump scare 😂

c-clown was soo good

the only group missing is pixy

Putting Love Shake on this was a calculated move. Also rip ANS and Majors you deserved better
