K-Pop Mixtape: Best Anti-Valentine's Day Songs

Not really feeling the love this Valentine's Day? Trust us -- you're not alone. Feel free to leave the romantic ballads to everyone else and instead crank these K-pop hits on February 14.

'I Don't Need a Man,' miss A

This song starts out by announcing it's "for all the independent ladies." It goes on to remind women who are making it on their own -- without the help of parents or a significant other -- have a lot to feel good about.

'Dirty,' Miryo

Got some pent-up anger or maybe even some revenge fantasies towards an ex this Valentine's Day? Yeah, this is your song.

'Don't Touch Me,' Ailee

I mean...the title and lyrics of this song really speak for themselves. "I don't need you so go away, far away/Don't touch me...I don't love you. I'm out! I'm out!" This one makes the list because it gets the point across in a way that makes you want to dance (or do a kickboxing workout) instead of wallowing in bed.

'I Will Show you,' Ailee

Ailee's so good at working out heartbreak that she made our list twice. In this upbeat power ballad, she imagines a scene where she shows a former flame dumb enough to drop her who's the real loser in the situation. It's a great song to blast when you're fantasizing about making an ex's jaw drop when they see you looking better, more successful, and happy after the relationship ends.

'All Alone,' Kim Jaejoong

This isn't the most upbeat option on this list, but there's something slightly comforting about the way this song plays out -- his silky voice and the swelling orchestral background feels less like an exercise in self-pity and more like a promise for a more couple-y Valentine's Day in the future (if you're into that.)

'I Feel Good,' EXID

Topping off this list with a song about a bunch of girlfriends working hard by day and creating their own party at night -- the kind of plans that would make for a perfect Valentine's Day.
