Kun is an informal honorific suggesting the addressee is younger than the speaker. One female equivalent would be chan, although it is not used in the same ways as kun and suggests a little girl.
Younger female employees are sometimes also addressed as -kun by men of senior status.

Is Ritsuka-kun a boy or girl?
It's obvious when it stands -kun behind the name. Ritsuka-kun is a boy. Well, I'm going to change this answer. Just because the name is Ritsuka-kun doesn't mean it's a boy. It goes the same way for "chan," because it is used for little girls/boys aka Tadashi-chan can be a boy even though "chan" is in the name. the suffix "kun" for girls can be used when a male coworker is addressing a younger female coworker, or when a girl is a tomboy. (ex: Akira-kun) I hoped this helped. :)

What are the differences between san Chan and kun?
All of the surtitles are used for addressing different people and genders. -San is used for our equals or superiors, both female and male. EX: peers, non close friends, acquaintances, coworkers, etc. -Chan is often used exclusively for young girls or children (babies). It is used among very close friends to add endearment to their names. It also makes their name "cuter" so it is often added to the end of children's' (girls) names. -Kun is used exclusively for young boys. It is used as -san is used for adult men and women. However, boys are only addressed as "-kun" until their early 20's, or sooner, and then people will begin to call them "-san."
