JYP ENTERTAINMENT’s new group KICKFLIP has unveiled a new digital single to celebrate the first anniversary of its debut.
On January 17 and 18, KICKFLIP held their very first fan-concert, titled “2026 KickFlip FAN-CON From KickFlip, To WeFlip,” with a total of four shows at the Blue Square SOL Travel Hall in Yongsan District, Seoul.
They met the fans who passionately supported them throughout their debut year in 2025, a year in which they showcased their strong skills and established themselves as true “K-pop super rookies.” At this special concert celebrating their first debut anniversary, they performed two brand-new songs for the first time. The group is officially releasing their new digital single “FROM KICKFLIP, TO WEFLIP,” featuring the tracks “Hyper slide(Sung by KYEHOON, DONGHWA, MINJE, KEIJU)” and “Good night(Sung by JUWANG, DONGHYEON).” This single highlights both the group’s vibrant energy and their soft vocal harmonies. The members also took part directly in creating the songs.
“Hyper slide(Sung by KYEHOON, DONGHWA, MINJE, KEIJU)” captures the personality and energy of the four members. It is a dance track that blends a drum-and-bass rhythm with digicore sounds and a hyper-emo vibe. KYEHOON participated in writing and composing, while MINJE contributed to the lyrics, adding a heartfelt touch. The lyrics compare this moment to standing at the top of a skateboard ramp and deliver the message: “Beyond worry and hesitation, let’s trust each other and move forward together.” The song offers WeFlip a message of hope and determination.
“Good night(Sung by JUWANG, DONGHYEON)” is a pop ballad that showcases the emotional sensitivity and vocal abilities of the two members. The song starts softly with piano and gradually builds, creating a dynamic atmosphere. The chorus reaches a powerful emotional peak. The track expresses the wish for the end-of-day greeting “Good night” to last forever, promising to stay together for life. Both members are credited for the lyrics, and this marks Juwang’s very first songwriting participation.
To celebrate its first anniversary, KICKFLIP is giving this musical gift to its fans. Following the successful Seoul concerts, the group will begin a national fan-concert tour across five cities: Busan on January 24, Gwangju on January 31, Cheongju on February 21, and Daegu on February 28, for a total of 12 performances. After a remarkable 2025 filled with three mini-albums, major international festival appearances, and several rookie awards, anticipation for the group’s activities in 2026 is high.
KICKFLIP’s new digital single “FROM KICKFLIP, TO WEFLIP” will be available on all music platforms on January 20 at 6 PM KST.
