KickFlip Announces 1st Anniversary FAN-CON ‘From KickFlip, To WeFlip’ in Seoul with Four Shows in January 2026

Rookie K-pop boy group KickFlip has announced their first fan concert, set for January 2026 in Seoul, marking the group’s first anniversary since debut. On December 1, JYP Entertainment unveiled the main poster for ‘2026 KickFlip FAN-CON “From KickFlip, To WeFlip” in Seoul’ via its official social media channels, branding the event as ‘KickFlip 1st Fan Concert’ and signaling a milestone celebration with their fandom, WeFlip.

According to Korean media reports and JYP’s announcement, the FAN-CON will take place over two days at Blue Square SOL Travel Hall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, with four shows in total: 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on January 17, and 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. on January 18, 2026. Having officially debuted on January 20, 2025 and quickly risen as a ‘K-pop super rookie’, KickFlip is returning to Seoul right around their first anniversary to create special memories with WeFlip.

The slogan ‘From KickFlip, To WeFlip’ highlights the concept of moving from the stage toward their fans, with the poster’s airplane and stamp motifs symbolizing a journey from 2025 into a new year. Notably, the design includes stamp-like marks bearing English names of Korean regions, which Korean outlets interpret as a hint at potential nationwide fan-concert stops, further fueling anticipation for future dates beyond Seoul.

Tickets for the Seoul shows will be sold via NOL Ticket, with a two-step system: a fan-club presale for WeFlip from 8 p.m. on the 8th to 11:59 p.m. on the 9th, followed by general sales beginning at 8 p.m. on the 10th. Details on seating, entry guidelines, and fan support rules will be updated through KickFlip’s official social media channels and the NOL Ticket website, and fans are encouraged to check the latest notices before purchasing.

Within just a year, KickFlip has established a distinct identity through multiple releases. From their debut album ‘Flip it, Kick it!’ to their third mini album and latest record ‘My First Flip’, the group has impressed both on streaming platforms and on stage with sharp choreography and strong live performance skills, leading Korean media to describe them as ‘born performers’. The upcoming FAN-CON is expected to serve as a highlight reel of this first year, revisiting key stages and fan-favorite tracks from all three mini albums.

In 2025, KickFlip quickly expanded onto major global stages, performing at festivals such as ‘Lollapalooza Chicago’, Japan’s ‘Summer Sonic 2025’, ‘Summer Sonic Bangkok 2025’, and the ‘2025 TIMA (TMELive International Music Awards)’. At each stop, the group showcased tightly executed stages that highlighted their performance skills. They also took the stage at the ‘2025 MAMA AWARDS’ held at Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Stadium on November 29, delivering a dynamic set that drew attention from both cameras and the live audience, further solidifying their status as a ‘super rookie’ act.

Against this backdrop, the Seoul FAN-CON is seen as a homecoming moment where KickFlip brings the experience gained on global stages back to their domestic fanbase. By blending concert-scale performances with fan-meeting elements, the event is expected to combine songs, choreography, talk segments, and interactive corners, allowing WeFlip—who have supported them throughout the year—to enjoy the members’ charm up close while setting the tone for any future nationwide fan-concert expansion.

As 2025 draws to a close, the first-anniversary FAN-CON also signals how KickFlip plans to approach 2026. Commentators note that the group has already proven their stage capabilities through three mini albums and numerous festival appearances, and that larger-scale tours and concept-driven projects could further cement their reputation as a group that ‘wins you over the moment you see them live’. For fans watching the rise of a new generation of K-pop boy groups, ‘From KickFlip, To WeFlip’ functions both as a wrap-up of their breakout year and a launchpad for the group’s next phase on the global stage.

## KStarLoud Insight: KickFlip’s first-anniversary FAN-CON channels ‘global rookie’ momentum back into an intimate home base. By locking in four shows across two days at Blue Square rather than leaping straight into large-scale arenas, KickFlip is prioritizing depth of connection over sheer venue size. This multi-show, mid-size venue approach is often the most efficient path for emerging boy groups: it stress-tests real ticket power, generates word of mouth, and lays groundwork for potential nationwide or overseas fan-con tours. The inclusion of multiple Korean region names in the poster design, combined with a résumé that already spans Lollapalooza, Summer Sonic, and MAMA, signals a clear strategy—positioning KickFlip not only as a staple on global festival lineups but also as a team ready to redistribute that performance energy back into Korea and the broader Asian market. In effect, ‘From KickFlip, To WeFlip’ functions as a hinge point that connects high-exposure festival stages with more intimate, fandom-centered experiences.
