빅플로 소개

BIGFLO (빅플로) is a four-member South Korean boy group under Madewell Music. Originally debuting as five members, they released their first mini album, First Flow, on June 23, 2014.

The group was formed after Jungkyun, a former member of N-Train, was given the opportunity to debut again under HO Company. Auditions were held in 2014 to complete the lineup, with HighTop, Ron, Z-uK, and Yuseong joining him.

BIGFLO made their first appearance on M Countdown shortly before releasing First Flow and its title track "Delilah". They returned later that year with their second mini album, Second Flow, led by "Bad Mama Jama".

Their activities expanded into Japan in 2015 with the release of "Delilah (JPN ver.)", which they promoted through events in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka. Kichun joined the group that June, expanding the lineup to six members. Their third mini album, Incant, followed in October with "Obliviate" as its title track.

The lineup went through major changes in 2016 when Z-uK and Kichun departed for personal reasons and Jungkyun began his mandatory service. Euijin, Sungmin, and Lex were later added to the group ahead of their next comeback.

After a year-long break, BIGFLO returned in February 2017 with their fourth mini album, Stardom. Yuseong did not participate in the comeback after going on hiatus due to health concerns.

Later that year, several members auditioned for KBS2's survival program The Unit, with Lex and Euijin becoming contestants. Lex was eliminated in 44th place, while Euijin finished second and earned a place in the project group UNB. Former member Z-uK also competed and was eliminated in 56th place.

BIGFLO returned after another lengthy break with their fifth mini album, Emphas!ze, in August 2018, featuring "Upside Down" as the title track. Around the same time, Jungkyun and Yuseong disappeared from the group's official Naver profile, indicating that they were no longer part of the lineup.

Yuseong later addressed his departure through a now-deleted Instagram post, explaining that his hiatus was originally supposed to be temporary. He claimed that problems with the company prevented him from returning to group activities and that he only discovered he had been removed from BIGFLO after seeing the change to their Naver profile.

By the end of 2018, Ron and HighTop had also decided not to renew their contracts, while Jungkyun confirmed that he was officially a former member. Several current and former members reunited the following year for the fan-organized According To BIGFLO photo exhibition celebrating the group's fifth anniversary.

With Euijin, Sungmin, and Lex remaining, BIGFLO gradually shifted away from group activities as the members focused on their individual careers. Their official social media accounts became inactive in January 2020, leaving the group's future uncertain.

Four of the original members—Jungkyun, Ron, Kichun, and Z-uK—eventually reunited in 2022 as WE:A.
