On February 10, 2025, Starship Entertainment opened the group’s social media accounts. On February 12, 2025, it was announced that KiiiKiii would debut in March, followed by the announcement of their debut EP Uncut Gem on February 16, 2025.

What’s special about KiiiKiii is that the group seemingly appeared out of nowhere and was introduced with a creative and humorous teaser campaign. The teaser images released by Starship Entertainment are often intentionally vague or quirky, sparking curiosity and interest among fans.

The combination of cryptic and funny images along with the sudden announcement helped generate a lot of attention and anticipation for KiiiKiii even before their debut.
