King & Prince is a two-member Japanese idol group under Starto Entertainment (formerly known as Johnny & Associates) that debuted in 2018.[1] Their debut was announced at a press conference on 17 January 2018 along with the establishment of Johnny & Associates' new record label under Universal Music, Johnny's Universe (now Project K&P), with King & Prince becoming the first artists to sign under the label.[2] They have sold 12.3 million physical copies in Japan.

The group used to have six members: Sho Hirano, Ren Nagase, Kaito Takahashi, Yuta Kishi, Yuta Jinguji and Genki Iwahashi. However, Genki Iwahashi withdrew from King & Prince on 31 March 2021 due to anxiety disorder. Three of the remaining five members left the group on May 22, 2023. Sho Hirano and Yuta Jinguji left the agency on the same day, while Yuta Kishi remained until fall of 2023.[3]

History

[edit]

2015 - 2017: Beginnings

[edit]

Johnny & Associates announced the group's formation in a press conference on 5 June 2015. The group was formed to be special supporters for TV Asahi's Summer Station event.[4] Mr. King vs Mr. Prince was divided into two subgroups: "Mr. King", consisting of Sho Hirano, Ren Nagase, and Kaito Takahashi and "Mr. Prince", consisting of Yuta Kishi, Yuta Jinguji, and Genki Iwahashi.[5] Producer Johnny Kitagawa chose their name in hopes that each member would "spark off each other" and "improve themselves through friendly rivalry".[6] The group's first original song, "Summer Station" was used as the official theme song for the Summer Station event, which ran from July to August 2015.[7] The group was meant to disband after the event. However, in August 2015, the members announced that they would continue activities as a group.[8]

By 2016, Mr. Prince had changed their name to "Prince" and the six members predominately worked within their respective units.[9] Mr. King released a photo book and were special supporters for Summer Station 2016,[10] while Prince performed in the Johnny's Ginza musical and started to host their own variety show, Mayonaka no Prince. In September 2017, the six members performed in the Johnny's Jr. concert Summer Sta (Kimi ga) King's Treasure. After the concert, they asked Johnny Kitagawa to let them debut together.[11]
