From an over-abundance of debuts to a handful of career-defining comebacks, 2012 has been a big year for K-Pop. But what were the best, most important songs of 2012? Here at allkpop, we’re trying to answer that question with our ‘Top 50 K-Pop Songs of 2012‘!
We combed through this year’s many, many releases to bring you a list of fifty of the year’s most noteworthy songs. Check in every Wednesday between now and January 2nd for the next group of songs in our ranking. Today, we bring you the ranking for numbers forty-one through fifty on our list.

MBLAQ is known for going big and dramatic, and “This is War“- from the rather odd inclusion of audio clips of a Malcolm X speech in the intro to the bullet-bending video – is their biggest and most dramatic release to date. Not really a ballad or a dance song but a more of an epic war-cry, “This is War” was a risk for the group- one that paid off with two ‘M! Countdown’ wins during their four-week promotion cycle, and further cemented them as one of K-Pop’s premiere male groups.
This is just the beginning- check back next week on Wednesday, December 12th for songs thirty-one through forty!
