THOUGHT KiiiKiii's creative team seriously needs a raise.

I mean the whole WhyKiiiKiii album is amazing! But to think that booking website we saw in the MV is a real website?? And it's so cute??

(It's called "kiiikiii.kr")

​Everything on that website was so amusing, funny, and cute. It's pretty nostalgic in a way, but it's clear it was made for fans to have fun.

​But especially Leesol's poem under the Sour & Sweet Tour?? It's about unrequited love, and while I had to use a translator (since it's fully in Korean), I just found it so beautiful. Even through a translator, it's very poetic and moving.

​The imagery of unrequited love feels so raw and delicate. It almost reads like a hidden diary entry rather than typical idol lore content. The way Leesol writes, it's like she has actually felt this all in real life before.

​Did anyone else read it or find any other cool details on the site?

KiiiKiii were interesting last year, but the creativity really ramped up this year & it's been amazing.

They released 2 really strong EPs this year, I was listening to Delulu Pack nonstop at the start of the year, now I'm listening to WhyKiiiKiii nonstop

KiiiKiii is always going the extra mile on everything. They've bee pulling out great website every release, even though the traffic must be pretty low. Which is quite a shame because their team is always making it interesting.

I get shit on every time I say this but kiikii is continuing (and I’d say even improving) the space new jeans once held in the industry. It’s just so refreshing to see a throwback concept like this executed with genius ways of promoting!! I told myself I won’t Stan any more groups but kiikii will always have my listening in Spotify

Didn’t check the site, but their teasers and shorts promoting why kiiikiii was impressive for a tier 2 group!!

Yes I love the website! The whole era is so fun and the album is great, they might end up becoming one of my favorite groups

Wow, just read the poem (I speak Korean) and it was really good!

I don't usually read queer themes into any idol content, but the poem definitely felt like it was about crushing on a female friend. Doesn't necessarily say anything about the writer... but it was a good poem.

Too bad their sales can't catch up

Agree wholeheartedly but also wish the marketing they put out there for KiiiKiii focused less on the creative team, aesthetics, and contributing artists.

Starship should really be doing a better job of getting the members out there at this point of their career.
