Group KiiiKiii has officially announced their debut and embarked on full-fledged activities.

 

KiiiKiii (Jiyu, Isol, Sui, Haum, and Kiya) held a media showcase at the Blue Square Master Card Hall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, on the 24th afternoon, launching their debut mini album 'UNCUT GEM' and marking the beginning of their formal debut steps. The showcase was hosted by comedian Jae-phil Yoo.

 

The first impression of KiiiKiii at the showcase was 'approachable without hesitation.' Although they verbally expressed nervousness, they seemed to enjoy the moment with a very joyful and amazed expression, reminiscent of high school students excitedly departing on a school trip.

 

This bold and unreserved demeanor is also a charm that KiiiKiii pursues themselves.

 

Sui explained, "KiiiKiii is a name that feels friendly to anyone. It contains the meaning of showing our various sides and giving happiness and laughter."

 

Then, Ha-eum clarified where KiiiKiii's aspirations lie, saying, "KiiiKiii wants to show an unorthodox charm. Instead of conforming to given situations, we try to show our natural selves."

 

At the showcase, KiiiKiii revealed the stage for their pre-debut song 'I DO ME' along with the track 'BTG'. Particularly, 'BTG', which was unveiled for the first time on this day along with its music video, differs from 'I DO ME' with its fast hip-hop beat and electronic sound, presenting a unique style.

 

Despite the excellent results achieved through 'I DO ME', continuing activities with a completely different style of song is also noteworthy.

 

Jiyu expressed her excitement about showing the 'BTG' stage for the first time, saying, "I am happy and thrilled to be able to present the 'BTG' stage for the first time. We poured a lot of passion into preparing this stage. We will continue to be a KiiiKiii that meets expectations, so please give us lots of love."

 

Sui added, "If we showed a comfortable and natural side in 'I DO ME', in 'BTG' we aim to present a cool performance and a free, cool appearance. We want to give a refreshing feeling. We will work harder to be a KiiiKiii that meets expectations."

 

However, while the style of the songs may differ, KiiiKiii's goal is the same. They aim to be a group that brings laughter and happiness.

 

Jiyu said, "Each of our individual personalities shines, but when we come together as a team, we create more synergy. We want to be a group that continues to bring laughter to many people," and Isol emphasized, "Our strength is our unorthodox charm. Based on this charm, we want to be artists who bring happiness."

 

'UNCUT GEM' is like a declaration of KiiiKiii's charming and unpolished debut. The album's six tracks pose KiiiKiii's cheerful questions towards youth. Each member's unique vocals express the tracks, raising curiosity and anticipation for their future music.

 

'UNCUT GEM' includes the pre-released title track 'I DO ME', the minimal and sophisticated beat 'DEBUT SONG', 808 bass and vintage synthesizer sound 'GROUNDWORK', vintage instrument sounds and vocal chop sampling 'THERE THEY GO', the genre-blurring 'BTG', and the retro Moog Synth and solid Bass/Kick harmonious 'ONE OFF'.
