KickFlip is a seven-member boy group under JYP Entertainment. Four members—Kyehoon, Amaru, Keiju and Donghyeon—were selected through the 2021 audition program Loud; Donghwa, Juwang and Minje joined the final debut lineup after additional training. The group takes its name from a skateboarding trick. Its January 6, 2025 pre-release “Umm Great” introduced the group ahead of its official debut on January 20 with the mini album Flip it, Kick it! and lead track “Mama Said.”

Their debut record topped the Circle Album Chart. The group followed it with Kick Out, Flip Now! in May 2025 and My First Flip in September, moving from the rebellious energy of “FREEZE” toward the first-love themes of “Band-Aid” and “My First Love Song.” Members contributed to the writing of all seven songs on My First Flip. Their first year also brought a Lollapalooza appearance and rookie recognition at the Seoul Music Awards and Asia Artist Awards.
In January 2026, KickFlip marked their first anniversary with fan concerts and the two-unit digital single From KickFlip, To WeFlip. March’s “Twenty” led into April’s My First Kick, another Circle number-one EP. Amaru remains a member while on a health-related hiatus; JYP confirmed its continuation on September 1, 2026. As of September 9, the group has announced KICK OFF THE WALL Pt. 1 for October 6, with two title tracks and a first music-video release planned for September 28.
