I’ve listed my “top tens” for many artists, but it’s time to rummage through entire discographies and rank every single from worst to best. This feature will primarily tackle groups who have disbanded or gone on indefinite hiatus. It’s a way for me to re-evaluate my initial thoughts on their singles run. Don’t be surprised if the order has changed from past countdowns. These things are always in flux!

15. Running To Future (2026)
A non-event of a pre-disbandment anthem. (full review)
14. Roses (2026)
A more rousing iteration of a pre-disbandment anthem. (full review)
13. LOVEPOCALYPSE (2026)
A “meets expectations” disbandment anthem. (full review)
12. Yura Yura (2024)
Leans into their cutesy side for a convincing bid at the Japanese market. (full review)
11. Slam Dunk (2025)
Yeah, it’s a bunch of shouting with basketball noises, but I guess it’s kind of fun. (full review)
10. Iconik (2025)
It’s heart is in the right place, but the funk beat doesn’t hit hard enough and the whole thing feels a bit sterile. (full review)
9. Feel The POP (2024)
This one actually grew on me (probably after seeing it peformed at KCON over and over again), even if the melody is a bit gimmicky and one-note. (full review)
8. Melting Point (2023)
This follow-up track didn’t get nearly enough attention. The chorus is pretty strong and compensates for its subdued, loungey sound. (full review)
7. Crush (2023)
This was not the right choice for their first comeback at all, but it’s also a bit underrated. I’ve really come around to its skittering percussion and clumsy drop-style chorus. (full review)
6. Doctor! Doctor! (2025)
The group’s strongest promoted ballad because it adds a great groove and shines focus on their strong and diverse vocal tones. (full review)
5. Now Or Never (2025)
It’s a shame they never got to expand their Japanese discography further because this rock-tinged single pointed toward a promising direction. (full review)
4. Sweat (2024)
I’ll always be drawn toward summer singles and this special pre-release eclipsed many of their actual title tracks. (full review)
3. In Bloom (2023)
It was a surprisingly lowkey start to their discography, but one that improved with time and set the overall tone for their sound. (full review)
2. Blue (2025)
They really hit their stride in this era, capitalizing on their fresh image for anthemic pop hooks that felt both trendy and timeless. (full review)
1. Good So Bad (2024)
For me this is ZEROBASEONE’s crowning achievement — at least where title tracks are concerned. Enlisting K-pop legend Kenzie to co-write the track turned out to be a masterstroke. Good So Bad is celebratory and uplifting and boasts the best melodies of the group’s career. If only they could have made a dozen of these! (full review)
