In February and April 2021, Krystian performed his own songs for the first time on the show. These songs were called "Inverse" and "yAo."
The final part of Youth With You 3 was canceled in May 2021 because of some issues. This meant no new group was formed from the show at that time. However, on July 25, 2021, the top 9 contestants were announced as a group called IXFORM at a music festival. Krystian was not part of this final group.
