The year-end is the time when people look back at the past year and prepare for the new year.

This is the same in the music industry as listeners, fans, and artists look back at the year and review all the songs that have been released. Thereafter, the best songs are chosen and recognized for their contributions to making the year that much brighter.

Recently, one online user explained that there wouldn't be a change in the top 10 songs of the year on Melon unless a new song suddenly skyrockets up the music charts. The user also listed the songs that are anticipated to be in the top 10 songs of the year.

So here are the predictions for the Top 10 songs of the year on Melon Music:

1. IVE's "Love Dive"

Although it is a dance song, "Love Dive" showed a crazy trend because it was not a seasonal song and is a high candidate to be at No. 1 for the song of the year on the Melon Music chart. This is the first girl group song to win #1 in 6 years since TWICE's "Cheer Up" in 2016.

2. (G)I-DLE's "Tom Boy"

"TOM BOY" is a strong candidate for rank 2, and it is also the first time in 6 years that two girl group songs are in rank 1 and 2 since 2016 when TWICE's "Cheer Up" and GFriend's "Rough" were rank 1 and 2 respectively.

3. Melonance's "Drunken Confession"

Was released in December 2021 but is a song that remained on the music chart for a long time.

4. Melonance's "Love, Maybe"

5. Lim Young Woong's "Love Always Flees"

This is the song that showed what happens when it gains popularity when a large fandom and the public.

6. IVE's "Eleven"

IVE's debut song showed comparable popularity to "Love Dive." This is also the first time in 6 years that a girl group will have two songs in the top 10 after TWICE's "Cheer Up" (rank 1) and "Like OOH-AHH" (rank 9) in 2016.

7. Big Bang's "Still Life"

The group's first song as a whole in five years.

8. GyeongseoYeji and Jun Gun Ho's "If you lovingly call my name"

9. Psy's "That That"
