You can find all our “Mood Playlists” by clicking here! This week’s “Mood Playlist” is dedicated to cat lovers all over the world. These adorable little babies work hard all day at the biscuit factory and can still brighten up your mood with just a little snuggle. If you’re looking for some Korean songs that celebrate cats and all their quirks, we have the perfect playlist for you! Here are some songs with cats as the main characters that we guarantee you’ll fall in love with!
Sunwoojunga - ‘C A T’ (Feat. IU)
‘C A T’ by Sunwoojunga and IU embodies the very essence of feline mischief. The music video tells the story of an alley cat and a house cat and their extraordinary adventures outside of the mundane whereas the lyrics sing of an unlikely yet addictive companionship. We just can’t get enough!
ONF - ‘Cat’s Waltz’
‘Cat’s Waltz’ by ONF is the perfect representation of the cautious yet curious nature of cats. If you’ve been looking for a manual to make a kitty love you, this song is exactly what you need!
ATEEZ - ‘The Black Cat Nero’
This iconic rock opera by ATEEZ has more origins than one. ATEEZ reinvents Turbo’s song ‘Black Cat’ which, in turn, was remade from the Italian children’s song ‘Volevo un gatto nero’. Any cat lover would enjoy the original story behind the song and ATEEZ’s reinterpretation just makes it even better.
Nell - ‘cat’
Nell’s ‘cat’ holds layers of meaning that transpose into our daily lives and relationships. He plays the ‘cat’ and sings from its perspective, highlighting the way humans project their emotions onto their pets. However, it also posits the pains of a limiting relationship where one’s desire for self-expression is subdued. Either way, ‘cat’ strikes a familiar chord and leaves a lasting impression.
Casker - ‘The Cat and Me’
Perhaps the sweetest ode to the gentle warmth of cats, Casker’s ‘The Cat and Me’ is as enchanting as it gets. The whimsical vocals accompanied by the meaningful lyrics make the listening experience incredibly memorable, especially if you have a kitten of your own. ‘The Cat and Me’ is a reminder of the silent love these little ones give us, even if we may not always pick up on the same. Needless to say, this song is one of a kind.
APINK - ‘Cat’
Nothing captures the playfulness of a cat better than APINK’s ‘Cat’. Portraying the excitement of a chase, APINK teases us with the most thrilling proposition, and before we know it, we’ve fallen head over heels. If that’s not an accurate portrait of cat lovers with cats, we don’t know what is!
Bonus!

CODE KUNST, meenoi - Take Me (with 11Kitties)

If the music video reaches 5 million views in 2 weeks, the donation amount will be doubled.
