Superkind is ananagram of the words "Nuke", "Prid" and "S".Nuke are the virtual members,Prid are the real members, andS is something "mysterious" that unites them. The name reflects the group's quest to find the letterS and complete the anagram.^{[1][unreliable source?]}

In 2019, Deep Studio Entertainment presented their pre-debut project calledYours Project. The company, which has specialized indeepfake technology since its founding in 2017, had intended to debut a virtual idol based on the 1998 virtual singer, Adam.^[2]

The company began recruiting real trainees for the project, in order to find out what fans wanted and how they should interact with them, to enhance the success of their project. The project was governed by fan voting, who could select which trainees they wanted to see on fancams and talk to them through aDiscord server. However, the project was canceled in 2021 after the departure of several trainees.^{[3][unreliable source?]}

In late 2021, the company replacedYours Project's social media withSuperkind's, and revealed the virtual member of the group, Saejin, in November.^[4]
