Profile
KINO (Kang Hyung-gu) is a dancer, vocalist, composer and choreographer associated with PENTAGON since its 2016 debut. His songwriting and choreography have contributed to the group’s identity.
He debuted individually with the digital single POSE in August 2022. After setting up his own label NAKED in 2023, he developed a solo discography including the 2024 EP If this is love, I want a refund, the 2025 EP EVERYBODY’S GUILTY, BUT NO ONE’S TO BLAME, and Lost and Found in April 2026.
KINO’s NAKED team coordinated PENTAGON’s 2026 seven-member anniversary project. He co-wrote and produced the group single Coward; a production credit on a group song must not be counted as a separate KINO solo release.
