K-POP Songs IT Engineers Should Listen To

5 recommended K-POP tracks featuring IT terms and cyber concepts. Picks include aespa's metaverse, NCT DREAM's glitch, and STAYC's "GPT" — music where you can feel technology through visuals and sound.

Published: Updated:

I love K-POP. So here’s a spontaneous selection of K-POP tracks I’d recommend to engineers.

aespa - “Savage”

aespa is a girls group from SM Entertainment with an early concept of “real-world members and virtual-world avatars synchronizing (SYNK) over a network.”

SYNK (synchronize), Avatar, and metaverse are the key terms. Note it’s SYNK, not Sync.

404 (NewEra) - KiiiKiii

A girl group from STARSHIP Entertainment. 404 - Not Found.

NCT DREAM - “Glitch Mode (버퍼링)”

NCT DREAM is an NCT sub-unit under SM Entertainment, the same label as aespa.

Glitch (malfunction, bug), Buffering.

STAYC - GPT

Titled after ChatGPT, with lyrics that fully push an AI-inspired concept.

YENA - NEMO NEMO

8-bit game style. Has an anime song vibe.
