Hyui

Hyui, born Komori Yuhi on May 11, 2007, is the main rapper of NEXZ and one of the members most closely associated with the group's future creative upside. He trained under JYP Entertainment for roughly three years before Nizi Project Season 2, then debuted through Ride the Vibe after making the final seven as one of the youngest members in the lineup.

The appeal with Hyui is not just age or rookie momentum. He already carries a distinct music-minded identity inside NEXZ, which is why fans often tie him to the Melody Maker tag. As the group moved from Nallina into O-RLY? and Beat-Boxer, he increasingly read like the member to watch if the project grows beyond performance strength into deeper in-house creative character.
