Taki

Taki (타키) is a Japanese vocalist and dancer in &TEAM, the nine-member group formed through HYBE Labels Japan's &AUDITION survival program. Born Takayama Riki (高山りき) on May 4, 2005 in Kanagawa Prefecture, he first appeared on HYBE's radar as an I-LAND contestant in 2020. He did not make ENHYPEN's final cut, but the experience sharpened what he came back with two years later.

Taki entered &AUDITION: The Howling in 2022 and secured his place when the group was announced September 3. &TEAM launched December 7, 2022 with First Howling: ME, and he has since anchored the group's performance lineup as one of its most technically sharp dancers. His stage movement is fluid and deliberate, a quality that made him a fan focus early on.

Height 173 cm, MBTI ENTP, blood type O. His representative emoji is a cow. Among the group's Kanagawa-born members, Taki and Harua formed a natural unit frequently paired in content. The nickname Takoberry, derived from the Japanese word for octopus, became a fixture in the LUNE fandom community.

The group's Korean crossover came October 28, 2025 with Back to Life, their first Korean mini album. The title track earned &TEAM their first Music Bank trophy on November 7, a milestone for a group that built its foundation in Japan. Taki continues under YX Labels as the group expands across both markets.
