While some of these covers may be challenges during show programs and YouTube events like “Try-Lingual,” the other full-covers from concerts or studio performances prove that K-Pop idols can do (and sing) just about anything.

Taemin – “Despacito”

SHINee’s Taemin has got the sauve swagger that makes any Spanish fan say “Que fuego!” The viral song “Despacito” took the world by storm and Korea was no exception. While many people jumped on the trend, Taemin completely made the song his own and dominated the stage at Music Bank Chile. The fans scream and chant alongside Taemin who keeps quenching our thirsts with his sexy dance moves and smooth vocals.

ATEEZ – “Wonderland”

Boy group ATEEZ really took on the challenge and did their best to sing “Wonderland” in Spanish. While some members may have had panic written all over their faces, other members like Yunho and Jungho have smooth pronunciation and really master their parts! Hopefully, the boys can practice together and do a full cover in the future.

EXO – “Sabor A Mi”

Without a doubt, the most famous cover of any Spanish song by a K-Pop idol is “Sabor A Mi” by EXO. This list would not be complete if EXO didn’t get a shout out. From the way they sing the heartfelt lyrics to the flawless pronunciation, EXO are a fine example of how to master singing in another language. Can we say Legends?

KARD – “BOMB BOMB”

It seems KARD were probably the most successful with their “Try-lingual” challenge as they hit all the notes, kept the flow, and BM especially rapped his heart out when it came to his parts in Spanish. Perhaps KARD should consider having full releases in Spanish? Check out more about BM’s solo interview here!

Super Junior – “Ahora Te Puedes Marchar”

In 2019, Super Junior truly showed their love for their Latin American fans after releasing “Ahora Te Puedes Marchar,” an upbeat song that has blaring trumpets, festive beats, a spicy electric guiter rift, alongside an extremely catchy chorus. The full-Spanish release is the first of its kind in K-Pop that features a MV and pays homage to Luis Miguel (the original singer) and it proved to be popular. Although I love the live-concert performance, the MV is a must-see! THE WIGS!
