Ezaki Hikaru

Ezaki Hikaru (江崎ひかる, 에자키 히카루) arrived in Kep1er as one of the clearest performers to come out of Girls Planet 999. Born in Fukuoka and trained through Avex Artist Academy before joining WAKEONE Entertainment's project-group lane, she built her reputation on fast attack, sharp rap phrasing, and choreography that always reads bigger than her frame.

Since Kep1er's January 2022 debut, Hikaru has been central to the group's performance identity across First Impact, Doublast, Lovestruck!, Magic Hour, Kep1going On, TIPI-TAP, Against the World, and Bubble Gum. She is often labeled a main rapper and main dancer, but the more useful read is tempo control. When Kep1er needs intensity, precision, or a harder edge, Hikaru usually drives the shift.

That mix has helped her hold real cross-market pull in both Korea and Japan. Her personal Instagram and Kep1er's official Japanese channels now give fans a direct line into comeback schedules, fan meetings, and performance-era rollouts, but the core of her appeal is still on stage. Hikaru makes high-speed choreography feel deliberate instead of chaotic.
