Stray Kids' third full-length album “5-Star” was the highest-ranked K-pop album on the 2023 Top 200 Album chart by the French record organization Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique (SNEP).
The band teased upcoming projects in a video released Monday, including two album drops, a third world tour, fan meet and greets and pop-ups in Seoul and Busan.
This makes Stray Kids the second K-pop band to record No.1 four times on Billboard 200, following BTS's six times.
The Korea JoongAng Daily will choose 15 top K-pop acts and look back to their golden 2023 and a possible Golden Disc nomination. Up next is Stray Kids, one of the fastest-growing boy bands in K-pop, whose global influence grows by the day.
Stray Kids has certainly made great leaps in the K-pop scene. A dozen ingredients could be included in their recipe to success, but members chose one particular element as key: tenacity.
Stray Kids completed its “5-Star Dome Tour,” performing in five different dome stadiums around Japan and Korea.
"Rock-Star" will be the boy band's first Korean album in five months, following the release of its third full-length album "★★★★★(5-STAR)" in June.
