JK21 was an idol group. Their name stands for Japan Kansai 21.
Originally, they contained the trainee group PuchiJK (プチJK). They became Puchikko (プチっ娘) in September 2010. At this point, some members were separately called Kenkyuusei.
In January 2016, the existing group became Osaka team JK21R, and the alternate Tokyo team JK21G was formed. JK21R disbanded on August 31, 2018, but JK21G continued until December 15, 2019, when the only remaining member graduated.
In July 2022, a search for new members was started, with the group being renamed JK21+. On January 2, 2023, it was announced that Suga Mizuki would be graduating from momograci in preparation for the revival. On June 1, 2023, it was reported that plans for revival were ended with Suga moving to Kanto.
