But beyond simply casting, K-Pop fans also feel that many of their favorite artists would have made great additions to the movie’s soundtrack.
Here are seven songs K-Pop fans think would be a perfect inclusion in the Barbie movie.
1. Fanatics’ “V.A.V.I. GIRL”
The upbeat, catchy song is not only about being a “shining doll,” but the music video captures the very essence of Barbie.

2. Taeyeon’s “Weekend”
Watching the music video for Girls’ Generation Taeyeon‘s “Weekend” feels exactly like being transported into a Barbie world, making the addictive song an ideal addition to the soundtrack.

4. BTS’s “21st Century Girls”
Not only is “21st Century Girls” a fun song that perfectly suits an upbeat, playful scene, but the song itself is about female empowerment making it the perfect choice for Barbie.

5. Bella Poarch’s “Build A B*tch” featuring Rosé
BLACKPINK‘s Rosé astounded fans with her self-written verse for Bella Poarch‘s viral song. And given the doll theme of the original music video, the song would be perfect for possibly a darker turn in the Barbie movie.

6. TWICE’s “
Although almost any TWICE song could be an excellent inclusion in the soundtrack, their hit song “Fancy” would encompass Barbie’s playful, elegant, and confident vibe.

7. Yeeun’s “Barbie”
CLC Yeeun‘s solo song “Barbie” is perfect in every way for the film; from the title to her stage outfits and the lyrics, this song would have been a perfect addition.
