You have a lot of questions so I'll answer the best that I can. Stray Kids (SKZ) is not a boy band, is a kpop boy group. Skz has 8 members and they just celebrated their 6th anniversary of the group. They are actually really popular outside pf South Korea, they have a lot of awards, lest year they won Best K-pop at the VMA and Top K-pop Album at the Billboard Music Awards. We dont have dates yet, but they are doing their third world tour this year. They headline the Lolapalooza Paris last year and will headline Lolapalooza Chicago this year, among others music festivals in Europa. So they are in high demand this days 😂😂😂. Is really common in kpop to switch languages, sometimes the lyrics suits better in English, besides most of the members of Stray Kids are pretty fluent in english, 2 of them are australians. They have so many good songs: MEGAVERSE, TOPLINE, S-CLASS, MANIAC, VENOM, FREEZE, Gods Menu. I could list songs forever lol, but this ones have MV's. In fact, you can activate the subtitles, they have translations for their songs. You can find more of his songs on JYP Entretaniment (the yt chanel of the company they work for) or on Stray Kids (the group's yt channel where they post official and unreleased songs, covers, vlogs, their variety show called SKZ CODE, they do lives and many other things)

61 y/o guy here, lifelong music fan across most genres, I absolutely LOVE Stray Kids! The fact that they write and produce their own music, and always have, was important for me when I first gave them a listen 4 years ago. They just make great music. Seeing them live, where they shine even more, has been among the greatest concert experiences ever for me, and I’ve been to 100’s of shows in my life. Whatever category people put them in, I think they’re outstanding!

Your most viewed video to date! Stray Kids are pretty popular especially growing exponentially since 2022. So cool to see so many 30+ Stays here. SKZ is not just for teens! FYI they sing in Korean and English (not American). Also K-pop is more the name of the industry than it representing a single genre. K-pop is huge and is from South Korea. As you can tell for this one Stray Kids song, they mix genres within songs, have high energy, hard raps, rock, vocally driven ballads. Each K-pop band is different. K-pop has sold the most physical albums in the US in 2023 I believe, SKZ being part of this, only after Taylor Swift.

I think it's really cool you decided to try a new group just because. Stray Kids are a kpop group based in South Korea. Kpop is currently becoming one of the biggest music genres in the world- you might have heard of groups like BTS or Black Pink who were pretty much the first ones to make a big impact on the mainstream American music scene. Kpop has generations- sort of like eras of development and different groups. BTS and Blackpink are 3rd Generation Kpop, Stray Kids are 4th Generation Kpop, so a younger group. They started becoming really known internationally in 2020 with their song 'God's Menu'. They debuted in 2018 and only really got one year of touring in before Covid so had to grow a lot of their presence through videos and livestreams. They started touring again last year and their popularity keeps growing and growing. They had two Billboard no. 1 albums last year. Stray Kids are really prolific. They're a self-produced group so they make the beats, the lyrics, the sound. They're also known for incredible stage performances. Kpop groups are more performance groups than bands broadly speaking (though there is a lot of range in the genre). They are often highly skilled dance crews who can sing and rap as well and some like Stray Kids also produce music. Kpop MVs have 'lore' which is like a whole storyline and plot that fans have to piece together which is another fun element of the genre. Stray Kids are one of the most internationally popular groups and their fanbase has grown so much even over the two years since I've been a fan. Kpop as a whole tends to create really dedicated fanbases and a lot of groups are getting international attention now but Stray Kids are one of the most known I would say. To give an example- one of the Stray Kids members Felix debuted as a model at fashion week this year and he got almost the same amount of press and social media attention as Zendaya. Stray Kids have released about 17 full and mini albums in the past 6 years. They release music in Korean, Japanese, and English- which are languages all the members speak to some level. They actively study languages to better communicate with fans. They have made songs in pretty much every genre and coined their own style called 'mala' that basically experiments and mixes all types of music. They even release youtube only songs on their youtube channel that the members have written as solos or small units to experiment and grow in their skills. As for their fans, it's all age and quite mixed gender-wise, especially for their international audiences. I'm in my 30s. Stray Kids fans are known as 'Stays'. I really hope you check out more Stray Kids and discover this really cool world of music and artistry. I recommend Megaverse (the MV and the live stage performance on the JYP youtube channel), Hall of Fame, and Topline if you liked this. Try to check out their live stages wherever you can they're really something.

They are most definitely IT. Stray Kids are next level. I'm 53 and never listened to kpop then I discovered Stray Kids last year and I was done for. I devoured their discography and all of their content. I think they are musical geniuses, tbh. They write and produce all of their music which is rare in kpop. And yes they GO HARD. When they first debuted alot of people called their music "noise music" or "construction music" and honesty they leaned into that big time....and have produced banger after banger. Highly recommend checking out Megaverse, Venom, Easy, Cheese, Freeze, Topline, Get Lit, S-Class, and The Sound

You’re DEFINITELY missing out on Stray Kids if you stop with this song! They produce banger after banger, and no two are alike. I recommend: God’s Menu Maniac Easy Thunderous Topline Megaverse to name just a few. Btw, they are Korean (K-pop) & they use some English because it’s spoken around the world. Also, the leader and chief beat maker, Bang Chan, is Australian so he’s an English (& Korean) speaker. Another member, Felix (people always recognize Felix first… you’ll understand if you watch more MV’s) is Australian as well. P.S. I’m in my 50s & have been a fan of SKZ since 2021.

@2:47 on your video..... "So how big are these guys?" They are a multi-award winning and record-setting (as far as pre-release / post-release album sales) group who perform in countries around the world in completely filled stadiums that hold upwards of 50K / 60K people, as well as performing incredible, bring-down-the-roof performances at various awards shows. They have been featured in Rolling Stone magazine, Billboard magazine and Time magazine, among many, many others. One example: in 2020, Time Magazine said they had one of the top 10 songs of the entire year. They were the only K-pop group on the list. They have won rookie / male group / album / dance performance / single song / global artist and producer awards at the MTV VMAs, the Billboard Music Awards, MTV Europe Music Awards, the People's Choice Awards, the IHeartRadio Awards and many, many awards shows throughout Asia. They received a special award from the Prime Minister of South Korea. They consistently are among the top groups to be played on Spotify and other streaming music platforms. Some of their songs have been on Billboard's Hot 100 and Global 200 charts, and four (4) of their albums have been no. 1 on Billboard's top 200 album chart. .......just to give you an idea. In other words, Stray Kids are BIG.

I hope you continue to react to them! You asked about their popularity, for kpop fans they are actually known as one of the most popular groups in the Americas and Europe, but kpop is still niche overall so being very popular for kpop still doesn't reach a massive audience, as other comments mentioned 2 of the members are Australian, so it is kind of easier for western audiences to warm up to them, plus they are heavily involved in the creative process of their music, not very common in kpop but it is happening more and more.

I'm 56 years old and I freaking LOVE Stray Kids, I grew up listening to metal and rock. I'm going to see them in London in July. There are so many good songs to check out. Some of my favourites are Venom, Thunderous, God's Menu, Easy, Side Effects,m Double Knot (and so many more!) They also do solo or unit songs that are published on the Stray Kids channel under 'SKZ Record' or 'SKZ Play', as well as the 3 producers in the group (3Racha) have several songs that they published before the group was chosen by the leader Bang Chan (aka Chris, as he grew up in Australia). They write, produce, and compose most of their music themselves, as well as contributing to the choreography. The members of 3Racha are some of the most credited 4th gen Idols by the Korean copyright body KOMCA with Bang Chan having something like 185 credits at the moment (3rd most credited) and Han and Changbin both having over 140 as well. They also do a LOT of wordplay in their lyrics. There is another reactor who speaks Korean and English who did a breakdown of the lyrics of this song and explains a lot of the wordplay in the lyrics of this song kzitem.info/news/bejne/o2Zn3WyCqGVmm4I

I am 30 years old. I had never listened to K-pop before, but I knew about it, I knew what songs were meant by K-pop, since my sister has been a K-pop fan for 10 years. and I never liked this genre of music. but that year I discovered Stray Kids. I was shocked to find out that it was K-pop, I didn’t think that K-pop could sound like that. Later I realized that I can’t call it K-pop, like many fans, it’s Stray Kids. This is not Kpop. This is Stray Kids. They have a unique sound and they are unique as individuals and as artists. They even created their own genre MALA TASTE in 2020(21). listen to the song God's Menu. They write their own music, they are a self-producing group. They are so talented that they can sing, rap and dance. They also know how to write and arrange their own music. they really can do everything and most importantly they are good at it all. I'm still shocked how talented they are. also getting to know their personalities I completely fell in love with these guys, they are amazing.

Stray Kids fandom name is called STAY (Like Taylor Swift fans are Swifties. Naming their fans is common in KPOP), and as a 47yo woman I am absolutely in love with this group. I went to their encore concert tour back in March of last year and they are absolutely just as good, if not better, live. They put on a SHOW and it was THREE AND A HALF HOURS LONG. They had the stadium shaking for everyone jumping up and down together. And I would say the only American groups I know that are this big are Imagine Dragons, Cold Play, and of course Taylor Swift. As far as other KPOP groups that fill stadiums overseas are Black Pink, Twice (both female groups), and ATEEZ (another boy group who also happen to be besties with Stray Kids), and TXT. And of course, the KPOP group that did a lot of trail blazing on our side of the pond was BTS. That group is on hiatus right now because they are serving their mandatory military duty all men in South Korea must do. JYPE also just debuted a North American girl group called "VCHA" (which sounds like the Korean phrase for 'to shine a light').

We couldn’t see the video😢. I’m 65, grew up with The Beatles, my teens with Yes, Pink Floyd, my baby making days with Pearl Jam, Linkin Park and went musically dormant for many years after that until Stray Kids woke me up to music again. They are giving me hope and joy. For me, they beat all the bands I mentioned above. Even though they are part ok Kpop, they have their own unique sound that I never get tired of hearing. They all rap, sing, dance, compose, produce but the main one that made it possible is their leader Bang Chan who is the main producer and does most of their beats. They are doing a world tour and I definitely plan on experiencing it at least once in my life. I am a proud Stay and subscribed to watch you discover them. I hope you fix the problem that we can’t see the video.

Speaking as a child of the 80's who grew up listening to AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Metallica, Journey, Queen....and so on, I discovered Stray Kids this year and was immediately drawn in. I have NEVER been into a "boy band" in MY LIFE. I hated rap. On the surface, I don't seem like I have the musical taste to fall in love with Stray Kids. My go-to playlist for decades has been an 80's playlist. The last concert I went to was Metallica in 2008. But Stray Kids performed at the VMA's in September, and I watched that performance of S-Class with my jaw hanging open, it was so electric. From there, I found Maniac and watched it, asking myself questions like "DO I LIKE RAP NOW? I THINK I LIKE RAP NOW." It was a deep dive after that, and now my main playlist is all Stray Kids. They are Korean, btw. A Korean k-pop group. But two members are Korean-Australian, their leader Bang Chan, and Felix, the blond with the deep voice who, if you watched more Stray Kids, you will be sure to notice. People get drawn into the fandom for his deep voiced vocals. IMO, their music is well worth checking out more of. If you enjoyed LALALALA, you should check out God's Menu, S-Class, Maniac, Thunderous, Venom...so many more. They are a self-produced (meaning three of them write and produce all of their music) 8-man group, and EVERY SINGLE one of them is SO talented and good at what they do.

Yeah, I don't know how I turned from a rock anthem, hair band loving fangirl, into a Korean k-pop rap fangirl, but here I am, lol. Now every time they release a new song and Binnie starts it off, I know we're in for a ride!

47 year old fan of Stray Kids here :) While it's true that there are many teenaged fans, there are also a substantial amount of grown-up fans! 😊 I can see that several people have already explained a lot about the group. I admire that they write and produce all their music. They are incredibly prolific, and have written songs in so many different genres. It's obvious that they really know what they are doing. K-pop is known for having close parasocial relationships with their fans, which means that we get to see a lot of hpw they are as people off stage as well. And even taking into account that we of course always will get a filtered version of their personalities, it very clearly shines through that these young men are some very emotionally mature and kindhearted young men, as well as being really silly and funny and making us laugh a lot 😂 Their MV's are always amazing, you will probably see them spoken if as "kings of transitions" . Good examples of that could be "Thunderous" and "Back Door". I also like the MV's to "Maniac", "The Sound", "S-class", "Case 143", "Megaverse", "Venom"...just to name a few 😊❤ Have fun. Will subscribe and hope to see more Stray Kids!

Love rock but tell you, these guys are major talented and mix multiple genre of music into their songs. (If you didn't have subtitles on, try it out with the music video). Their songs also have layered meanings as well as the music videos. It's been fun to research and discover them. Their themes will sometimes delve into mental health subjects (something hardly ever touched by other Kpop groups) and we love them for it! They've literally saved lives, just ask Stay.

Seungmin and I.N While the songs are hype they always have significant meaning to them. Their lyricism is always insane. Lalalala for example is about overcoming things like anxiety and sadness until only joy is left. Hence the characters disappearing over their heads. Going back and forth between between Korean and English is normal in KPop. It has a lot do with rhyme scheme. Since they are so experimental their sound has its own genre and they have a very diverse discography. Example... Gods Menu, Back Door and Case 143 all completely different sounds. Gods Menu is their most popular highly recommend Age range I've seen anywhere from 12 - 86... no lie, lol. They are insanely talented and worth checking out more.

I just turned 41 and found Stray Kids almost 2 years ago and I can't get enough. I grew up listening to rock and metal and still do but these guys are different. You would be surprised I have found so many fellow metalheads that love this group. They are very big internationally and are actually a headliner for Lollapalooza in August. They performed at last year's VMA's and won, Billboard Music Awards and won, they just won an award at iHeartradio awards as well. This group has been different from the start. Bang Chan the leader was allowed to pick the members which doesn't happen. Kpop is usually the company choses think BSB and Nsync type of creation. But from the beginning, they have also written and produced their music as they have 3 members of the group that go by 3Racha who handle that. They do have other producers they will include for certain tracks but it's them. As time has gone on though all the members have started to get more active in producing. Idk check out more songs by them. Some songs: Gods Menu - this was a defining moment for them and their career. Easy Megaverse District 9- Debut track to see where they started Thunderous Venom Social Path - feat Lisa All My Life (remix) Lil Durk feat Stray Kids. -no mv

First it’s Korean. Second it’s English not American. They do it to widen their audience I think. But pretty much every K-pop song cuts back and forth between Korean and English. Even when they do songs in Japanese they add English.

I love that you have reacted to something outside the western music. You can put on your English subtitles to see the translation for the Korean lyrics. For a long time, the term "K-pop" has been used to describe a "genre," when it's simply a generic, catchall term for popular music that comes from Korea. It's not an ideal word, especially since it doesn't acknowledge the diversity of musical styles within the industry and the visual elements that often go hand-in-hand with the music. BTS' Min Yoongi (Suga) articulated this challenge in an interview with the Grammy Museum “I think rather than approach K-pop as a genre, a better approach would be ‘integrated content.' K-pop includes not just the music, but the clothes, the makeup, the choreography…all these elements amalgamate together in a visual and auditory content package. It sets it apart from other genres.” That being said. Stray Kids is globally popular and sells out every concert they have. They have been featured on the billboard 200, MTV, at the VMA awards, and Lollapalooza Paris and will be at Lollapalooza in Chicago 2024. The have hit all the Japan dome concert halls and sold out there too. I am 60 yrs old and been into k-pop for 5 years now and loving every minute of it. Stray Kids are my first love to k-pop. I was luck to go to one of their concerts in Texas which sold out 30,0000 seats and everyone in the venue sung every song they played from start to finish. Stray Kids are different than most k-pop groups because they write, compose, arrange, and produce 99% of their own music, including the beat changes, the melodies and the different genres. They are a rap heavy group but don't let that fool you. They can all rap, all dance and all have amazing vocals LaLaLaLa is there most recent videos but not the video with the most views. Gods Menu is the one with over 400million views and still climbing despite it being released 4 years ago in 2020. And if you can believe it, Stray Kids put out a more rock version of this song on the album. 2 different versions. There is 8 members currently and 2 are from Australia, and there are other members that lived in US for a short period of time when they were young. Most members fluent in English and Japanese or have a very good understanding of the languages. This is common in a lot of k-pop groups to have a member from another country, because they do auditions all over the world to find the next Asian idol sensation. The deep voice blue hair member was born in Australia and when he moved to Korea to train as idol, he only knew very little basics of the English language. He had to study very hard the Korean language, and almost not debuting with the group because of it. He was 17 when he moved to Korea. I hope you explore more about K-pop and even more about Stray Kids. They are amazing and very talented young men.

They're music just hipe my everyday mood and makes me happy and energetic. Stray Kids is an 8 members group gather by the lider of the group Bang Chan (this is the only k-pop group formed this way. Usually the label company decides who gets to be the members of a group). Stray Kids are self-produced. They create 99% of they're music and are also very involved in the choreography creation. The group has debuted in 25/03/18 and the members are: Bang Chan (26Yo The Lider) , Changbin (24) and Han (23). They are also known as the producers and songwriters - 3Racha subunit. Lee Know (25), Hyunjin (23) and Felix (23) also known by the name of- Dance Racha subunit . All of them have solo songs composed by themselves. Seungmin (23) and I.N (23)as the Vocal Racha subunit. They have released solo cover songs. They all are skilled in dancing, they all can rapp or sing and lately all of them are getting intrested in songwriting and producing. Lalalala is the title track of their last came back. If you enjoyed it you should also check out some other really good music that they have such as Megaverse, S Class, Topline, Maniac, Venom, Frezze, God's Menu, Domino, All In, Social Path, Charmer , Get Lit, ITEM, Cheese, Super Bowl (eng version), Super board, Side Effects, Hello Stranger, Peacemaker, Rock, Boxer.... Etc. If you want to hear something less hard striking songs you should go on Fam, TMI, FNF, The Sound, Christmas Evel, Blind Spot, Get cool, Awkward silence, My Pace... Etc If you enjoy more soft ones you can check out Chill, Blue Print, The View, Time out, There, Your Eyes, B Me, Gone Days, I am you.....etc Songs that can crush your heart are the ones of Han and also Lonely St, Leave, Cover me, Winter Falls, Secret Secret, Levanter, Scars, Youtiful, Gone Away, I hate to admit .... Etc And if you want the hot ones i strongly recommend Red Lights, Drive, Taste (Dance performance), Connected, Woaw Mostly rap- 3Racha, Heyday, Muddy Waters (performance) Runner's High, I got it( Han), Mirror Mirror (Milli, F Hero ft Changbin), Grrr Be Awear, Zone.. Etc I also recommend they're pre-debute song Hellevator and they're debut song District 9!!! Believe me my friend... The list could continue forever cuz they're discography is no skipping song at all. Every song that you will listen will blow your mind for sound, lyrics, visuals, choreography, words play.... And also have excellent acting skills! They are amazing and i guarantee for an excellent experience 100% The fandom name is Stay. Also consider turning on the caption.

I'm 48 amd found Stray Kids trying to figure out why my daughter loves kpop so much. While i dont love kpop the way she does I absolutely adore Stray Kids. It is a different sound. (I like Ateez as well though not nearly as much). That they write and produce their own stuff and the fact that the leader Chan handpicked the members makes them feel more organic and cohesive. They are very funny off stage (and sometimes on) and they literally never stop working. We Stay (fanbase) joke that Chan has the next 20 years worth of songs already done. They actually have a rather large older fanbase as you can tell from your comments here. While some younger people do like them, a growing number of gen x have found something we have been missing is todays music. Subscribing, I hope you continue your Stray Kids journey!

This comment is really long (sorry in advance 😅) but here’s a quick intro to Stray Kids to answer your questions! Stray Kids are a Kpop group. Kpop in general incorporates a lot of English with the Korean language. But for Stray Kids specifically, they just have a lot of English in their songs mostly cause two of the members are Australian and it’s their first language. The members have written and produced their entire discography (22 albums and EPs combined. 19 in Korean, 3 in Japanese.). They have been an active group for 6 years and actually just celebrated their anniversary last week! They don’t really just stick to one genre and experiment a LOT. They’ve done everything from pop, to rock, edm, hip hop, etc. What they’re most known for are their insane music videos (very high quality productions always) and their versatility. They can all sing, rap and dance so they are able to perform any type of song. They have very hard hitting songs like LALALALA, but also beautiful ballads and some very fun and upbeat songs as well! To give you an idea of their success currently and why this music video has so many views, they’ve been blowing up a lot since 2020 and their last 4 albums debuted at #1 in the US and a lot of other countries. They are only the second korean boy group after BTS to enter the Billboard hot 100 chart with LALALALA. Their last studio album “5-star” sold over 5 million copies worldwide and was the second best selling album of 2023. They will be releasing an album in the next month or so (no official date announced yet but it should be announced any day now), and are going on a stadium tour along with that release. Let me know If you want any music recommendations!

@@HightopReacts okay here’s a small list: God’s Menu (the song that catapulted them into fame and a must for anyone wanting to do a deep dive into their discography) Topline (A collaboration with Tiger JK, iconic Korean rapper. His nickname is the godfather of Korean Hip Hop because he is the one who popularized the genre in South Korea) Megaverse (has a music video but they also released a high quality video of them performing it at a concert and I highly recommend that one!) Thunderous (my personal favorite music video of theirs) Those are all pretty intense songs so here’s a couple ballads and more lighthearted songs that I highly recommend: Leave (no music video but there is an official performance video from a concert) Cover Me (also no music video) And lastly, FAM. This one is an absolute must for beginners because the members basically introduce each other in it and their names are in the song so it’s kind of a nice way to know their names and a little bit of their personalities individually without having to watch an hour long guide video. Plus it has a really fun music video!

In fact the age doesn't really matter because Stray kids do music because they love it so they goal isn't to target an audience but to help and share through music. I'm so glad you like Stray kids ! They are a great band and i'd love to see you discover them. For LALALALA : The big creatures are the representation of stage fright and Stray Kids help the little kids beat them with their song (each stages are an emotion, anger, sadness, pleasure and happiness and throughout the music video, the emotions disappear one by one until only pleasure is left. The word for pleasure is Rak almost the same word as rock vocaly) In K-pop it's a really common thing to incorporate English word in songs. In Stray kids I think it's because two of their members are Australians. Also maybe it's for rhymes and easiest to use some words in English. If you want more info : Stray kids are a self produced group (Which is rare in K-pop ) Changbin (the one rapping on the motorbike), Han (the one tied up) and BangChan (the one having the high note at the end) are known under the 3racha name. They produce and make lyrics for almost 99% of all the songs of the group. BangChan (the leader) has more than180 credited songs (180 in november so way more now i think), Changbin and Han have almost the same count. But as of today, all members are starting to make their own songs. If you want to discover them they have a song called "FAM" where they describe each other. They are 8 members and an unique fact about them : they don't have roles because they are multi talented. (In k-pop, a group is divided in roles : vocals the ones singing, rappers the one rapping and visual, the ones better looking. It implies that if they are one they aren't good at the other twos) They were also recruited by BangChan (unique way of creating a group. In K-pop it's the agency who decides which member will form a group based on the concept of the group.) If you like their songs, they have a big big catalog and they use a lot of music styles. They also have a lot of content on youtube like behind the stage / MV or lives and a lot of covers; etc.. If the dance part interests you, they have dance practices there too ! You could check the one for "Domino","Easy" and a lot more ! You can try : Megaverse, Christmas EveL, COMFLEX, Case 143, Thunderous, Cheese, Venom, Freeze, S-class, the sound, God's Menu. If you prefer more melodic and less "noisy" songs try : Cover me, Chill, Collision, Can't stop, Limbo, Stars and raindrops, Leave, FNF, Streetlight, Youtiful and more And if rap are what you're into try : Heyday (3racha), 3RACHA, Item, Topline, We go, and so much more ! I hope you journey discovering stray kids will be fun !

You only watched one of their music video. You need to react to more of their music videos. There will be something that will grab you and hold you to become a (STAY) (fan). All ages are (STAYS) I'm 70 years old and I am a STAY. Every since I heard God’s Menu, I have been a die hard (STAY)fan. Stray Kids are on a different level of K-pop. Stray Kids Transitions, Visuals, Lyrics, Music, Beats,Vocals, Rapping and Dancing on a whole different level. Stray Kids 8 members. All 8 members are Rappers,Vocalists and Dancers. 3 members are Producers. 2 members are Visuals. 2 members are Dance Leaders. Stray Kids are considered a Self-Producing idol group as the members are almost always involved in songwriting, composing and sometimes assist in arranging. Stary Kids were trained for years. Stary Kids debut March 28, 2018, with their release District 9. Please react to.... 'God's Menu' 'Back Door' 'MANICA' 'MEGAVERS' 'TOPLINE'(Feat. Tiger JK) '(S-Class)' 'THOUNDEROUS' 'VENOM' 'FREEZE' One need to watch Stray Kids music videos to the very end. Stray Kids give clues throughout or toward end of their music videos at times for STAYS. Also Stray Kıds give clues throughout their Short Film Movies for STAYS.

HELLO! Subbing for your potential journey towards k-pop and dive into SKZ (Stray Kids) music. Funny how you say American instead of English *hehe but yes it is common for non native English speakers to add English into their work. In kpop (It's Korean btw and this is kpop) it has commercial purpose also as they aim to appeal to market outside SK. This group specifically uses more English because two of their members are from Australia. Little about K-pop. Unlike in the name it is not a music genre itself nor is it all just pop, there being as many genres within as there is groups. But its a nuanced topic as most of kpop groups do have distinct feel to them that make them recognizable as kpop. Kpop refers to typically idol groups put together by a label (there is exceptions as per usual) and they are more than just music which is where the idol term comes relevant. The fandom culture is also different and all groups call their fans a different name. (this has spread to the western world too more and more). There is eras of kpop that we call Generation where the 1st gen started in the 90's and this year we entered the 5th. Stray Kids are from the 4th gen. SKZ themselves are fully self-produced group and their leader Bangchan (main producer and does most of the composing) actually picked his own members for the group, which itself is pretty unique. Nowadays more and more artist write or take part into the music production in the k-industry but SKZ does it on another level. They are under one of the biggest labels in SK called JYP and they debuted in 2018. They have very vast discography and you will never know what you get when going into a new song. Some say that you actually get 10 songs in 1 when listening to SKZ. Hope this very simplistic text gives you little more context and hopefully you enjoy the journey and Stay ;) (SKZ fans are called STAY's)

Stray Kids are a Korean boy group, who debuted six years ago. A mix of Korean and English is expected for kpop, but they tend to incorporate more English than some others, in part because the group has two native speakers (Korean ethnically, but both grew up in Australia), and their fanbase is mostly international.

About Stray Kids: 3Racha - Stray Kids' main writing and production unit, consisting of Bang Chan (the leader of Stray Kids), Changbin and Han (two of their main rappers) Bang Chan was an idol trainee at JYP for several years. While waiting to debut with a group, he formed a rap group called 3Racha with two other trainees, Changbin and Han. They wrote and produced their own music. JYP gave Bang Chan the highly unusual opportunity to help develop his own idol group (which they did through a reality show, but Bang Chan had WAYYYY more say in picking the members than pretty much any other idol trainee in the industry), and when Stray Kids was formed 3Racha was absorbed into that group. 3Racha still performs on occasion. Several of their songs / videos are posted on KZitem. They write and produce (and often compose/arrange) the vast majority of the music for Stray Kids. But over the years the other members have also gotten involved in writing and production. ---------------------------------- Stray Kids debuted in 2018. They started with 9 members (in their early videos, you'll see 9 people performing) but Woojin left in Oct 2019. Stray Kids have been an 8-member group ever since. ---------------------------------- DanceRacha - their main dance unit (Hyunjin, Felix (the deep-voiced guy), and Lee Know). But all 8 members dance very well. ---------------------------------- VocalRacha - their main vocal unit (Seungmin and I.N). But again, all 8 members have great singing voices and they switch around on lead vocals, depending on the song. ---------------------------------- Main rappers - Changbin, Han, Hyunjin and Felix - however unlike many K-pop groups, all 8 members can and have rapped, depending on the song. ---------------------------------- Languages: Bang Chan (the leader of the group) and Felix (deep-voiced guy) are both Korean-Australian, so English is their first language. The other 6 members speak English with varying degrees of fluency. All 8 members are fluent in both Korean and Japanese. The group can sing and rap in all three languages. ---------------------------------- Not all of their music is super hard all the time. Stray Kids also write / sing beautiful ballads and have also written a few songs for K-drama, anime and video game soundtracks. They also collab with / produce for other idol groups and individual artists from Korea, Japan, China, Thailand and the U.S.

They are a 4th gen Kpop (Korean) group, they are self produced and write most of their own music (the sub unit that writes their music is called 3Racha with members Bang Chan, Han and Changbin). There are 8 members, Bang Chan their leader, Felix, Seugmin, I.N., Lee Know, Han, Changbin and Hyunjin. They are known as a “noisy” music group. But I love their music and the energy they bring. I discovered them a year ago. If you want to check out more of their MVs I would recommend God’s Menu kzitem.info/news/bejne/1HmoqpuDk2mUd34.

It is Korean so some words are in English from what I understand there is no way for it to translate some word in Korean. By the way music really doesn’t have an age limit I’m 63 and love the songs and the choreograph dance moves are excellent. I’m an old classic rock from the 70s but this shit is badass. The only thing I don’t like is they have their lyrics clean but it is a courteous country.

Their big. Their biggest music video as of the last time I checked has 400 million something views(God's Menu. The song is good in its self plus it introduced a whole lot of new people to their music which is why it has so many views). Last year, they made a song called hall of fame talking about how they were making it to the hall of fame with the help of their Fandom(stay's) and no one could hold them back from that. Just so happen recently they broke Taylor Swift's music hall of fame record she had three back to back hit albums, and just so happened this song that you're listening to is a part of the album that helped them break that record... and I would say you're missing out if you do like this song you're probably going to like a lot of their music.

리액션 재밌네. KPOP인데도 일본어인지 중국어인지 구분 못 하는 것도 웃기고ㅋㅋㅋ 그냥 진짜 딱 찐 미국인 리액션이다

its not for teenage girls. theres an insane amount of guys that are fans of them along with women of all ages. if i had to compare how big they are, id say close to one direction’s popularity but i dont like to compare the groups even that way.

This. Definitely a bigger fan base than teenage girls. The "not teenage girls" portion is at least equal if not larger. I would have gone more towards the Beatles than One Direction for popularity.. but I don't know. Was One Direction really that popular? I can't even name a single song by them and I barely recall them being around.

*English 😅Stray Kids have fans of ALL ages, last year there was a 90 year old grandma at one of their concerts and they also have a lot of fanboys too not just "teenage girls" I'm 34 and they're my favourite group, they're amazingly talented, they write and produce their own music. btw thank you for keeping an open mind if you want I recommend you to react to more of their music they are really good!

They beat one direction in some records last year and is the 5th best selling pure album of all time, beating elvis presley and under britney spears and beyonce. They created a genre and revived a dead genre. They're truly elite in every sense of the word. Bts has beaten the Beatles and skz is on their tail with bts having a 5 year head start. Not to pit them against each other but to give you the realization of how huge they are. They're about to get their 5th consecutive number 1 billboard album this month
