Kim Ju Yeon, formerly known professionally as Riko, is a South Korean singer, dancer, and former member of RANIA (라니아).

She made her debut in April 2011 as the group's leader and lead vocalist with their first mini-album,"Teddy Riley, The First Expansion In Asia". The group did not have much success and underwent constant lineup changes and delayed comebacks.

In December 2012, she started being absent from all group activities, and after the promotional period of their latest material ended in March 2013, she never returned to the lineup. In May 2014, DR Music (디알뮤직) announced she had been on hiatus due to her studies. However, it was later revealed that she had requested the agency 3 full years off so she could focus on her education. The agency denied the request and put her on hiatus before forcing her out of the group in October of that year.

She is out of the entertainment industry.
