한 KickFlip

KickFlip (킥플립) is a South Korean Boy Group that debuted in 2025. They consist of 7 members: Kyehoon, Amaru, Donghwa, Donghyeon, Juwang, Keiju and Minje.

Formed by JYP Entertainment, has one of the longest and most anticipated formation trajectories in the K-Pop scene of 2025. The group was initially conceived through the survival show "LOUD" (SBS), aired in 2021, where the agency selected the members who would form its next global ensemble. After a period of training and refinement lasting over three years following the show's conclusion, the group finally made its official debut in January 2025.

The recruitment and formation process of the septet combines finalists from the television competition with trainees kept under wraps by the agency. Kyehoon, the group's Leader, is one of the company's most resilient talents, having joined JYP in 2016 and training for approximately nine years before debuting. During "LOUD", he was highlighted as an ace for his well-rounded skills in dance and rap. Alongside him, Amaru and Keiju, both of Japanese origin, and Donghyeon were the other members selected through the competition. Amaru brought with him the experience of being a former YG Entertainment trainee in Japan, while Keiju had already demonstrated his potential in other dance programs before joining the agency.

The final lineup of KickFlip was expanded beyond the original show winners. During the final preparations in 2024, JYP Entertainment integrated three new members who had been kept as private trainees: Donghwa, Juwang, and Minje. This strategic decision aimed to balance the group's vocal and performance dynamics, and the complete seven-member lineup was officially introduced to the public only in the weeks leading up to their first release, consolidating an identity that values versatility and active participation in songwriting
