JYP Entertainment's promising new boy group, KickFlip, has officially announced their successful comeback by topping domestic album charts for two consecutive days with their third mini-album, 'My First Flip'.

The album, released on September 22nd, features a total of seven tracks, including the title song 'First Song I've Sung'.

The album, which explores the fresh emotions of first love, has been met with an enthusiastic response from fans, immediately clinching the number one spot on various album sales tracking sites.

The title track, 'First Song I've Sung', co-written and co-composed by member Donghyun, has been praised for its evocative melody and lyrics, painting a picture of confession under a sunset sky. It impressively reached number one on the Bugs real-time chart within six hours of its release, with all other tracks also charting in the top rankings.

KickFlip debuted in January 2024 and has actively participated in songwriting and composition for all their albums, including this third mini-album, fostering their musical capabilities.
