For many years, the world has followed countless K-pop groups dominating the music industry inside and outside Korea.
In 2018, the K-pop industry met another boy group full of charisma, talent, and charm slowly dominating today's music scene, JYP Entertainment's eight-member group Stray Kids.
The “MANIAC” and “God's Menu” singers, composed of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, and I.N., are now gearing up for the Philippine stop of the group's third world tour, “dominATE.”
They are set to perform this Saturday, November 23, at the Philippine Arena in Bocaue, Bulacan.
While waiting for Stray Kids' heartstopping concert, get to know them better in this gallery:
Stray Kids debuted on March 25, 201, with their mini-album, I am NOT, where the group showcased their hip-hop, rock, and EDM influences.
Like their senior group, TWICE, Stray Kids was formed by JYP Entertainment through the survival reality program Stray Kids, which aired from October 17 to December 19.
Originally, Stray Kids was a nine-member boy group until Woojin left in October 2019. Today, they are thriving with eight members composed of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, and I.N.
According to online reports, the group's name Stray Kids was coined by the members with the intent to express their determination to break the “existing mold,” stray away from expectations, and be extraordinary.
Stray Kids' fandom's name is called Stays, who are all over the world, sending love and support to the K-pop group.
Some of the best albums by Stray Kids are NOEASY, Oddinary, Maxident, 5-Star, Rock-star, and Ate, which have achieved top positions on global charts, including Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200.
After years of hard work, Stray Kids achieved their first-ever million-selling album with NOEASY back in 2021. It was also reportedly the first-ever JYP Entertainment album to do so.
Some of the hits released by Stray Kids are “God's Menu,” “Back Door,” “Thunderous,” “Miroh,” and the viral TikTok Christmas song “Christmas EveL.”
Stray Kids members are also active in writing and producing songs for the group.
Stray Kids' last appearance in the Philippines was their attendance at the Asia Artist Awards in December 14, 2023, at the Philippine Arena.
Stray Kids is ready to raise the roof of the Philippine Arena with thousands of Filipino Stays with their “dominATE BULACAN” on November 23, 2024, at the Philippine Arena.
