10 K-Pop Songs that Hit Different when it's Raining

Rainy days have a way of stirring particular emotions—whether it’s craving a warm drink, reminiscing with a favorite meal, or just getting lost in a tune. For many K-pop fans, certain songs become the soundtrack to those quiet rain-soaked moments, enhancing the mood perfectly. If you’re looking for your next rainy day playlist, here are 10 K-pop tracks that capture that gentle, reflective vibe that only the sound of raindrops can bring out.

Starting with the heart-tugging group I.O.I and their track “DOWNPOUR,” this song fits well with those times you’re curled up indoors, feeling a little introspective. The bittersweet melody matches the weather outside—soft but full of emotion.

Then there’s “RAIN” by BTS, which plays with the metaphor of rain in a fresh, energetic way. Its upbeat rhythm contrasts beautifully with the gloom of rainy weather, almost turning the rain into something to dance under rather than escape.

Next up, HEIZE’s “ON RAINY DAYS” brings that calm, sultry atmosphere. It’s the kind of song you want on repeat while watching raindrops race down your windowpane, blending perfectly with a slowly brewing cup of coffee or tea.

THE ROSE delivers a deep emotional punch with “SHE’S IN THE RAIN,” a powerful track soaked in sincerity and longing, perfect for those moments that feel heavy yet somehow cathartic.

If you’re after something soft and tender, IU’s “LOVE POEM” is like a warm hug in musical form. It’s a track that doesn’t just fit rainy weather—it feels made for it, wrapping you in comfort with every note.

On the more contemplative side, “WHEN IT RAINS IN NIGHT” by PENTAGON captures a nighttime rainy vibe that’s both moody and beautiful, ideal for letting your thoughts wander while you watch the world outside dimmed by rain.

“ON RAINY DAYS” by BEAST is another classic for stormy weather. With its heartfelt lyrics and soothing melody, it’s a natural companion to the sound of rain tapping on your window.

Meanwhile, “RAIN” by SOYOU featuring BAEKHYUN combines soulful vocals with smooth production, creating a rainy day anthem that’s both emotional and mesmerizing.

Each of these songs taps into the different shades of rainy days—from melancholy to hope, loneliness to warmth. The rain might be outside, but with this playlist, you’ve got the perfect soundtrack to match how it makes you feel inside.
