7 K-pop Songs From 'Less Famous' Boy Groups That Would've Gone Viral If Released by 'Big 4'
There are many good to great K-pop songs being released that go unnoticed because the group has fewer fans.
Though they are well-appreciated by the group's fans, many of them think that some of the songs would have gone viral, win trophies, or would be really well-known among other K-pop fans if it was released by a boy group from the 'Big 4' companies.
Here are some of the songs that we think would have so many listeners:
VICTON "What I Said"
Although VICTON has more fans than 'less known' boy groups, their songs are still not that famous. Their song "What I Said" has more than 25 million views on YouTube but it would have gone viral if it was sung by TXT or NCT.

The song's addictive beat and chorus make it even more a perfect item on this list as their fans are totally hooked on the song.
ONEUS "LUNA"
The next boy group on our list is ONEUS. Their song "LUNA" is a song with a dark concept that would have been really famous if it was released by EXO or SEVENTEEN.
ONEUS
With the traditional hanbok with a modern twist as their costumes plus the traditional sound placed during the dance break of the song and the choreography itself of ONEUS, it would definitely be praised by experts and non-fans alike if it was performed by those two boy groups.
SF9 "Memory"
The third song on our list is this song from SF9's 10th mini album "Rumination". "Memory" is a slow song that has R&B undertones and would have been really famous if it was sung by Enhypen.

Moonbin & Sanha (ASTRO) "WHO"
This comeback song of ASTRO's subunit, Moonbin & Sanha's "WHO" deserve so much more. The dark mysterious vibe and beautiful voices of the two ASTRO members made the song really stand out.

However, that was not enough to make it viral or famous. If it was sung by SHINee's Taemin or EXO''s Kai, it would have more views and streams on online music sites.

BLITZERS "Hit the Bass"
This is a type of 'noise' music that many people would have appreciated if it was released by YG Entertainment's latest boy group, Treasure.
BLITZERS
The repetitive English lyrics that can be easily sung by international K-pop fans, the choreography that can be a hit on Tik Tok, and the music video itself are all great.
It is such a waste that this boy group is not that well-known. The music video for BLITZERS' "Hit The Bass" is more than 10 million but that is nothing new as K-pop is so widespread.
Listen to their song here and tell us what you think of it.
CIX "Movie Star"
The slick, sexy, and cool debut song of the rookie boy group CIX is also part of our list. The song "Movie Star" can be easily an Enhypen song and nobody would bat an eye.

With only 21 million views on their official YouTube channel, CIX's debut song deserves more love and attention. If it was released by one of HYBE label's boy groups, it would have topped the charts and gone viral on Tik Tok.

P1Harmony "Scared"
This year-old release song from FNC's latest boy group, P1Harmony, would have garnered more attention if it was released by JYP Entertainment's boy group Stray Kids.
The rap-focused song is perfect for Stray Kids as it is their forte. P1Harmony's song will be more appreciated and loved if that was the case.
