Kiya, a member of the group KiiiKiii (under Starship Entertainment), showcased her unique variety skills and musical prowess.

Kiya appeared on tvN's 'Amazing Saturday' (hereinafter 'Amazing Saturday'), which aired on the 25th, to participate in the '2nd Jewelry Box Special.' On that day, Kiya drew attention with visuals reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn and performed a dance medley of KiiiKiii's hit songs. After introducing herself as "KiiiKiii's youngest and 'Amazing Saturday's' youngest," she told Taeyeon, "All pretty people are older sisters," revealing her natural sense of humor.

Kiya referred to herself as an 'Amazing Saturday kid,' saying, "It's a program I've watched and grown up with since I was young. There was even a trend of initial letter quizzes at school. From the time my memories began, 'Amazing Saturday' has been with me." She also added, "I learned how to boldly pick up correct answers. I will show the spirit of youth."

Kiya joined Shin Dong-yup's 'Yeop-i Yeop-i' team and participated in the 'Six Hearts' game. She demonstrated her ace qualities by guessing unknown song titles through quick thinking and observation, or explaining them to her teammates through dance, and gained attention for her unique reactions.

Especially, to help teammates who were confused about the correct answers, she strategically moved around to deduce the answers, and Shin Dong-yup praised Kiya by saying, "You're growing so much that you'll chew up the variety industry."

Facing difficulties with high-difficulty music quizzes, Kiya instead enjoyed a one-shot chance and became the protagonist of the 'Kkot-deut-chan' (chance to hear the answer) opportunity. Eventually, she caught the crucial keyword and succeeded in guessing the correct answer.

After correctly answering the initial letter quiz, Kiya performed Lee Young-ji's 'Small girl' live. Showcasing her unique vocal tone, she received high praise, with comments saying, "She looks like someone born to be an idol." At the end of the broadcast, Kiya said, "It's the first time I'm doing variety alone without my members, and I think I'm having a lot of fun. I will show you many good performances in the future, so please give us your interest and love."

Meanwhile, KiiiKiii will hold their debut fan concert, 'KiiiKiii FesTiiival (KiiiKiii Festival),' on May 16 and 17.
