media release: KIIRAS Makes Explosive Debut, Storms Malaysian Music Charts with ‘KILL MA BO$$’
Rising K-pop girl group KIIRAS is already making waves in the music scene, landing impressive chart positions in Malaysia just days after their debut. Their debut album, KILL MA BO$$, clinched the No. 5 spot on the Malaysian iTunes Top Album Chart upon its release on June 13.
Dubbed as the “5th generation super rookie,” KIIRAS is a six-member multinational girl group composed of LingLing (Malaysia’s first-ever K-pop girl group idol), Kurumi from Japan, and Harin, Kylie, Doyeon, and Roah from South Korea.
The group has gained widespread attention not only for their impactful debut but also for their electrifying live performances and commanding stage presence on major Korean music programs.
Musically, KILL MA BO$$ is a genre-blending pop track rooted in country, layered with R&B and hip-hop elements. The song’s modern “Western” twist introduces a fresh sound to the K-pop scene. Lyrically, it delivers a daring message, calling out outdated norms as “the BOSS,” and signalling the group’s intent to break boundaries and redefine standards with bold energy and flair.
Ahead of their debut, KIIRAS also turned heads with a visually striking concept teaser for KILL MA BO$$, shared via the group’s official social media platforms. The concept showcases a playful and kitschy cowgirl aesthetic set against a vividly colourful desert backdrop. From western-inspired outfits to eye-catching props, KIIRAS presents a bold and refreshing visual identity.
In the teaser images, the members balance innocence and mystique, exuding dual charms of youthful vibrancy and fierce confidence. This contrast is further highlighted in the teaser video, where soft, sunlit scenes shift into high-fashion denim looks and intense expressions.
With momentum building, KIIRAS is expected to rise even further on the charts. The group is already planning to expand their presence across Korea, Malaysia, and other global markets.
