On Monday, Jan. 25, Reddit K-Pop released their "Top Album Tracks/B-Sides of 2020" list. The list contains their top 50 selected songs. Keep on reading to see which ones made it to the rankings.
The number one song on the list is "Star" by LOONA, which earned 625 points. "Star" is a song from LOONA's third mini-album, "[12:00]", and was released on Oct. 19, 2020.

It is the first time LOONA released an all-English song as a whole group and is actually the English version of the song "Voice." The song was released as a single to thank their global fans for the love and support they received.

Sadly, members Cheng Xiao, Meiqi, and Xuanyi were not present in this song, nor the other songs in the album, due to their conflicting schedules in China.

The song is part of DAY6's sixth mini-album, "The Book of Us: The Demon," and was released on May 11, 2020.
