Haum

Haum (하음), born Kwak Ha-eum (곽하음) on November 14, 2006, in Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, is the kind of member who makes a five-person group feel like ten. As vocalist, rapper, and dancer in KiiiKiii, the girl group under Starship Entertainment, she debuted in March 2025 with their EP Uncut Gem and immediately established herself as the group's most versatile performer. Before KiiiKiii, Haum studied acting at Lila Art High School and trained at Dream Vocal Academy. Her childhood dream was ballet, but learning K-pop choreography pulled her into the idol pipeline. Her first audition song was Lee Hi's "1,2,3,4." That versatility is not decorative. Haum switches between singing and rapping within the same track, and her dance execution keeps pace with dedicated performance members. On KiiiKiii's pre-release single "I Do Me" and follow-up "Dancing Alone," she demonstrated a range that most rookie idols spend years developing. The group's second EP Delulu Pack (2026) pushed further, with title track "404 (New Era)" giving Haum more room to flex across all three lanes. "I Do Me" won KiiiKiii their first music show trophy on Show! Music Core in April 2025. Haum has already caught the fashion world's attention. Harper's Bazaar Korea, Allure Korea, and AR Magazine have all featured her, praising the Y2K aesthetic she brings to her visual identity. She appeared as a special MC on Inkigayo in April 2025, and KiiiKiii's commercial portfolio now includes KakaoBank, Burger King Korea, Thursday Island, New Era, and a Seoul Color ambassadorship. At 19, she is building a profile that positions her as KiiiKiii's anchor in a 5th-gen landscape where specialization is the norm.
