Hype Boy (Group 1)

HypEST performing "Hype Boy"

"**Hype Boy**" is a song released by NewJeans for their debut Korean extended play *New Jeans*. It was initially released digitally on August 1, 2022 before its physical release on August 8, 2022.

The song is covered by **HypEST** and Kokuhaku Renshuusei during the group battle evaluation in PRODUCE 101 JAPAN THE GIRLS.

## HypEST

HypEST is one of two groups that performed "Hype Boy" in the group battle evaluation. The team is composed of Kikukawa Aki, Tanaka Koto, Tanaka Yuuki, Nakano Kokona, Bando Fuka, and Murakami Rinon.

During the selection of members, Bando Fuka was drawn by lottery to choose who she wanted to perform on stage with. She chose Tanaka Yuuki first, followed by Nakano Kokona, Murakami Rinon, Tanaka Koto, and finally Kikukawa Aki. Their team was able to obtain "Hype Boy" and chose to go against Kokuhaku Renshuusei. When choosing positions, Tanaka Koto was chosen to be the leader and Nakano Kokona was chosen to be the center.

During the Produce camp, Nakano Kokona felt conflicted about being center, having low self-confidence. After reassurance and encouragement from the others, her passion is reignited.

HypEST was the seventh team to perform in front of the audience that night. They won against Kokuhaku Renshuusei, and all HypEST members received 3,000 bonus votes.
