KPOP DISCOVER's KickFlip note
Two things hold KickFlip together: a bold leaning towards performance, and a youth concept that runs across releases. Including members out of LOUD, the seven-piece debuted from JYP Entertainment in January 2025 with Mama Said, and the group name comes from a skateboard trick.
Treating Umm Great as the pre-debut song and Mama Said as the formal debut makes the flow easy to follow. My First Flip and My First Kick form a continuous youth concept dealing with first love and the spring of turning twenty, and taking in the dance practice and the performance versions alongside the music video brings out the strength of the performing.
The catalogue is not large yet because the debut is recent, but everything from the pre-debut work to the linked youth concept can be followed in one line. Mama Said first, Umm Great second, My First Flip third gives the debut, the pre-debut stretch and the youth concept.
Editors' take Mama Said / Umm Great / My First Flip — a bold performance leaning and a youth concept in three songs, from a seven-piece on JYP.
Trivia worth knowing
Name
KickFlip takes its name from a skateboard trick, matching the bold performance instinct behind the group.
JYP
As a new-generation boy group under JYP, the official discography and video record have been in place since debut.
Entry point
Treat Umm Great as the pre-debut release and Mama Said as the official debut, and the early sequence falls into place.
Youth
My First Flip and My First Kick run as a continuous coming-of-age concept about first love and the spring of turning twenty.
Videos
Beyond the music videos, the dance practices, performance versions and STUDIO CHOOM clips are where the strength of the choreography shows.
Line-up
Amaru went on a break around the 2026 releases, so only officially announced participation can be taken as settled.

Japan activity score
KPOP DISCOVER original metric
No. 122/ 241 groups
No. 122 of 241 groups with recorded activity in Japan (top 51%)
- 0Japanese releases
- 0Japan-related tracks
- 2Members from Japan
- 2Official Japanese accounts
The denominator is the 241 groups, out of 564 covered by KPOP DISCOVER, whose raw score reaches at least one point. The score adds 10 points per Japanese-market release, 3 per Japan-related track, 12 per member from Japan, and 8 per official Japanese account. Japanese-market releases carry the most weight because they are the most direct evidence of activity; related tracks add track-level detail; members from Japan stand for Japanese-language communication and continuity; official accounts stand for a permanent point of contact. The weights are an editorial judgement, not a statistical optimisation, and the ranking tracks release volume in Japan closely.
