JYP Entertainment rookie KickFlip marked a meaningful first anniversary memory with their first solo fan concert.
KickFlip held a total of four performances as part of the fan concert '2026 KickFlip FAN-CON "From KickFlip, To WeFlip"' (From KickFlip, To WeFlip) at Blue Square SOL Travel Hall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, on the 17th at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. and on the 18th at 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. The Seoul show, which opened the door to the group's first fan concert tour in celebration of their first anniversary, drew strong interest from WeFlip (fandom name: WeFlip) and sold out all performances. The final show was held offline and simultaneously streamed live as a paid online broadcast via the Beyond LIVE platform so more fans could join.
From. KickFlip, the rookie mail carriers who deliver happiness to WeFlip
Like the concert title about rookie mail carriers delivering gifts to WeFlip, the fan concert unfolded as a journey full of the members' passion to give WeFlip a special time. Starting with the game 'Open the road to WeFlip village' where they struggled to become excellent mail carriers, various segments reflecting the mail carrier concept were held. Playful skits with the members immersed in their mail carrier roles made the audience smile, and their earnest efforts in each game produced small bursts of laughter.
A talk segment titled 'Operation gather delivery energy' followed, in which the members read letters fans had sent to start the skateboard that would take them to WeFlip village. Messages filled with affectionate feelings for KickFlip provided a moving moment. Having recharged with WeFlip's great love, the members, grateful, moved through the audience and handed out signed balls in person, creating precious moments that will be long remembered by each other.
To. KickFlip's special musical gift for WeFlip only, the "next-generation stage masters"
They also delivered solid professional moments befitting the moniker of 'next-generation stage masters,' showing abundant spirit and strong skills. They energized the stage with album 1's track "응 그래" and the title track "Mama Said (뭐가 되려고?)" (Mama Said), and the mini album 2 title track "FREEZE" (Freeze), and they premiered the stage for "특이점" for the first time to raise the mood. They presented varied stages—from powerful performances to refreshing vocals—with fan-loved tracks such as "Like A Monster," "Electricity," "Gas On It," and "언젠가 태양은 폭발해," and delivered a heart-fluttering mood and pleasant energy with "처음 불러보는 노래," the song that won them their first music show No. 1 on terrestrial broadcasts.
Gyehun, K.Joo, and Donghyun's sparkling charms shone in a cover of Red Velvet's "Peek-A-Boo," Donghwa, Juwang, and Minje's bright and lively sides were highlighted in a cover of SEVENTEEN's "Mansae," and a lively, fresh KickFlip energy blended into a surprise full-group cover of GOT7's "A," drawing enthusiastic cheers. The newly debuted unit songs also received a hot response. Juwang and Donghyun's "Good Night" captivated with sweet tones, and Gyehun, Donghwa, Minje, and K.Joo's "Hyper Slide" drew a reaction with its energetic vibe.
With love. sincere words to WeFlip who will be together under the name 'we'
WeFlip responded to KickFlip, who gave every stage their all and delivered highly polished performances, with unreserved cheers. Reflecting on the past year with WeFlip, video content conveying the members' heartfelt thanks to the fans who have always been a steady source of support added warmth. KickFlip shared affectionate eye contact and hand waves with WeFlip and left a warm afterglow by performing "악몽을 꿨던 건 비밀이지만," "How We KickFlip," and "내일에서 만나."
The members said, "It feels like just yesterday we first greeted everyone at the debut showcase, but it's already our first anniversary, which doesn't feel real. Everything was unfamiliar when we debuted, but the looks from WeFlip who watched over us were a great source of strength, and when the precious name WeFlip first came into being during our mini album 2 promotions, we were happy to be able to keep calling that name. We're happy to be able to see WeFlip up close at our first fan concert for our first anniversary. Thank you for giving us a happy day. We hope today remains a great gift for WeFlip as well. We want to be with WeFlip in the coming year and beyond. We have many more things we want to say, so we hope to be together until the eok anniversary. We always love you."
Riding the momentum, KickFlip will carry out a fan concert tour across five cities and a total of 12 performances: Busan on the 24th, Gwangju on the 31st, Cheongju on Feb. 21, and Daegu on the 28th. Since officially debuting on Jan. 20, 2025, with the mini album "Flip it, Kick it!" KickFlip has released three albums that members participated in creating, achieved a No. 1 on terrestrial music shows, won rookie awards at major music award ceremonies, and performed at large global festivals, and expectations are high for the group's activities and achievements in the new year.
The digital single "From KickFlip, To WeFlip," which includes the two new unit songs showcased at the fan concert, will be available on music platforms at 6 p.m. on the 20th.
