KickFlip's Full Discography on One Stage Is the Best Preview Yet of Their April Comeback

Ahead of the April 6, 2026 release of their fourth mini album "My First Kick," JYP Entertainment boy group KickFlip made their full discography available in a single place: a KBS Kpop stage compilation video stretching from their January 2025 debut pre-release "응 그래 (Umm Great)" through their current promotional single "Twenty." The clip runs nearly half an hour, covers ten performances across fifteen months of activity, and functions as something between a career summary and a pre-release campaign — a way for fans to retrace the group's trajectory just as they stand at what looks like a turning point.

The compilation has circulated widely in the weeks ahead of the album drop, and its reception offers a useful metric for where KickFlip stands heading into their fourth release. The group debuted in January 2025 — a launch slightly delayed from the originally scheduled date, following the Jeju Air Flight 2216 crash — and has moved quickly through a discography that spans energetic debut material, a Stray Kids cover, and a pre-release single that has now been approved for broadcast and promoted across every major Korean music show. Watching those performances back to back makes an argument the individual clips do not: this is a group that has been improving at a rapid clip.

What's in the Compilation

The ten-performance playlist runs in approximate chronological order, beginning with "응 그래 (Umm Great)" — the pre-debut single released January 6, 2025 — and advancing through "Mama Said (뭐가 되려고?)," "락(樂)" (a performance of Stray Kids' original track, a choice that tested the group's range while connecting them to one of JYP's most prominent acts), "Knock Knock," "제끼자," "FREEZE," "Electricity," "반창고 (Band-Aid)," "처음 불러보는 노래 (My First Love Song)," and finally "Twenty," the pre-release track from the forthcoming fourth mini album.

Each performance documents a moment in the group's development. The early stages show a six-and-seven member lineup executing debut-era choreography with the controlled precision of recently-trained performers. The more recent stages, particularly "Twenty," show something looser and more assured — the kind of stage presence that emerges when the anxiety of early performances is replaced by the muscle memory of accumulated broadcast experience.

Notably, member Amaru has been on hiatus since September 17, 2025, for health reasons and is not participating in the "Twenty" promotions or the forthcoming fourth mini album. The KickFlip performing in the recent broadcast footage is a six-member unit, and the compilation captures both the seven-member and six-member configurations across its runtime.

KickFlip's First Year in Review

KickFlip is a seven-member (currently active as six) boy group under JYP Entertainment, with members Kyehoon, Amaru, Donghwa, Juwang, Minje, Keiju, and Donghyeon. Three members — Amaru, Keiju, and Donghyeon — came to the group through the SBS survival program LOUD, giving the ensemble a foundation of performers who have navigated competitive visibility before. The group debuted officially on January 20, 2025, with the mini album "Flip It, Kick It!" following the pre-release single that established their initial public presence.

In terms of commercial trajectory, KickFlip has moved steadily through their first year without the single dramatic breakout moment that dominates some debut narratives. Their releases have been reviewed positively by specialist K-pop criticism platforms — The Bias List covered "Twenty" upon its March 9, 2026 release — and the group has maintained consistent music show presence. "Twenty" charted on iTunes K-pop charts in Finland, Canada, and Japan following its release, suggesting the international reach that JYP's global infrastructure typically activates for its groups' releases.

The Stray Kids cover in the compilation — a performance of "락(樂)" — is a pointed detail for fans aware of the JYP family context. Covering a label senior act on a broadcast platform is both a compliment to the original and an implicit statement about the covering group's own ambitions. KickFlip's execution of the track, according to fan response captured in the clip's comment section, held up in the comparison.

The Fourth Mini Album and What "Twenty" Sets Up

"Twenty" was approved for KBS broadcast on March 4, 2026, and its music show run across M Countdown, Music Bank, Show! Music Core, Inkigayo, and Show! Champion was completed by March 19. The pace of that promotional cycle — seven music show appearances in under two weeks — reflects standard JYP promotional infrastructure for a group approaching a full album release.

The album title "My First Kick" follows the pattern established by their debut record "Flip It, Kick It!" in centering the group's name motif in the release title. Thematically, the "first" framing aligns with a consistent thread in KickFlip's output: the experience of beginning, of stepping into something new without the guarantee of how it lands. "Twenty" — the age, and the song — applies that lens to the threshold between adolescence and early adulthood, a subject that has proven commercially durable in K-pop across multiple generations.

The Music Bank compilation, timed to coincide with the album's pre-release campaign, positions every previous performance as prologue to what arrives on April 6. That framing is deliberate: a discography that reads as a straight upward line is the best advertisement for whatever comes next. By that measure, KickFlip's compilation does exactly what it needs to do.

What Fans Are Watching For

The comment section of the compilation video reflects what KickFlip's NovA — their fanbase — expects from the fourth mini album: the tighter, more confident stage presence visible in "Twenty" extended across a full release, with the kind of coherent thematic package that groups typically produce when they have had enough runway to understand their own identity.

The six active members heading into "My First Kick" will be performing without Amaru, who has been missed in the compilation's later entries. The dynamic of a temporarily reduced lineup is one that K-pop groups navigate regularly, and fans tracking KickFlip's output have noted the adjustment in the more recent broadcast footage captured in the KBS Kpop video.

April 6 is close. The compilation has given fans the context. The next stage — literally and commercially — begins in one week.
