"Instagram" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song recorded by South Korean musician Dean. It was released on December 26, 2017, by Universal Music Korea and distributed by Joombas Company. An R&B and soul track, it deals with the "stuffy, gloomy" feeling of scrolling through one's Instagram feed late at night.
Despite a lack of promotional activities, "Instagram" topped South Korea's national Gaon Digital Chart and peaked at number two on Billboard magazine's K-pop Hot 100. The single sold over 2.5 million downloads domestically, earning Dean accolades such as the Best Composer of the Year award at the 2018 Mnet Asian Music Awards and R&B Track of the Year at the 2019 Korean Hip-hop Awards.
