Kyaeen (キャイ〜ン, Kyaīn) is a Japanese comedy duo (kombi) consisting of Udo Suzuki (ウド鈴木) and Hiroyuki Amano (天野ひろゆき). They are employed by Asai Kikaku, a talent agency based in Tokyo.
Their kombi name was inspired by the happy squeals of female characters in manga. Amano thought of the idea, and Udo added the tilde which is used as an extension of a syllable in Asian cultures.
