"K-pop super rookie" KickFlip is set to make a comeback in October.
On the 31st, OSEN reported that KickFlip is preparing for a comeback targeting October.
KickFlip's comeback comes about six months after the release of their fourth mini album "My First Kick" in April. At that time, KickFlip set a new record with first-week sales of 456,167 copies. In particular, the title track "I want to be annoying to the eye," full of "kickral" (KickFlip-style cheerfulness), performed well on major domestic and international music charts and proved its popularity by earning two music show wins (MBC M "Show Champion"·KBS2 MUSIC BANK).
Having successfully concluded activities for their fourth mini album "My First Kick," which achieved their own first-week sales record and success on music shows, KickFlip also completed a nationwide fan concert tour, "2026 KickFlip FAN-CON
They also achieved success globally. Maknae Donghyun collaborated with British singer-songwriter Etham and released the collaborative single "Breathe" on the 14th. Donghyun participated in the song's lyrics, composition and vocals, showing a special musical chemistry.
Debuting in January 2025, KickFlip drew attention as JYP Entertainment's youngest boy group. In particular, since their third mini album, the members have been actively involved in the production of all tracks on the albums, including title songs, earning them recognition as skilled self-producing idols.
As a result, in August 2025, just six months after their debut, they were invited to the major U.S. music festival Lollapalooza in Chicago. They also swept awards such as the 34th Seoul Music Awards' new male artist, the Asia Artist Awards' best new artist, The Awards' Rima prize and discovery of the year, achieving outstanding results.
Following April, with a second comeback scheduled for October, attention is focused on what further achievements KickFlip will use to demonstrate their growth this year.
