Ello there! Due to the release of the Chk Chk Boom music video, I have fallen down the rabbit hole of things Stray Kids and I know you're a fan. Was wondering if you might have a primer on who they are/an overview of their history to get me started maybe? *side eye emoji*

Oh, wow, err. Okay, this is the rudimentary outline of who Stray Kids are. I'm rushing so I'm probably gonna get some things a little mixed up here, so many apologies to Stayville.

Official Channels: https://www.youtube.com/@StrayKids (Youtube) https://x.com/Stray_Kids (main) https://x.com/Stray_Kids_JP (Japan Official) (X formerly Twitter) https://www.instagram.com/realstraykids/?hl=en (main) Instagram

Members Instagram: @/3racha (for the producing unit), @/gnabnahc (Bang Chan), @/t.leeknowsaurus (Lee Know), @/jutdwae (Changbin), @/hyunjinnnn (Hyunjin), @/_doolsetnet (Han), @/yong.lixx (Felix), @/miniverse.___ (Seungmin), @/i.2.n.8 (I.N.)

Brief overview:

Debut in South Korea, under JYP Entertainment as an experimental group

Bang Chan, the leader was allowed to pick his own members to debut with

Really blew up around the time of their participation in the Kingdom: Legendary War programme in 2021

this was also where they did the Deadpool-inspired performance stage for the remixed "God's Ddu-Du Ddu-Du" - a mix of Stray Kids' God's Menu and Blackpink's Ddu-Du Ddu-Du - that caught Ryan Reynold's eye [Watch it Here because Mnet has removed the official version like the complete crapshows they are]

They don't have an official rapper, main vocalist, etc. as all of them are very well-rounded in each aspect, though you can tell that each of them have certain "roles" in songs [if it's not clear, you will be able to pick up on it once you listen enough]

They also do not have an official "sound". It's noise music for the most parts and that's their unique selling point

They're allowed quite a lot of flexibility in their production and songs because 3RACHA writes and produces their music {fun fact: JYP himself said that he is nervous about bringing any tracks to them since they do have a lot of control of what goes out under them)

Multiple members are multi-lingual or bi-lingual

They are currently the faces of Tommy Hilfiger and it was under the label that they became the first K-pop group to walk the 2024 MET Gala red carpet as a whole group

Fun Facts (my fave):

Han used to live in the Ampang area of Kuala Lumpur [which wasn't too far away from where I used to live!]

Bang Chan and Felix grew up in suburbs very near each other in Sydney, Australia but only met in South Korea when they were training

Lee Know once appeared on a NatGeo programme doing a Michael Jackson dance (I think it was)

Changbin is a wickedly fast rapper but Seungmin beat him once at his own game

Seungmin wanted to be a baseball player growing up

Seungmin is also a huge Day6 fan

Jeongin wanted to be a priest... which... :D

Hyunjin almost got roped into a cult once

Bang Chan can't handle spicy food

Changbin is quite possibly the secret member to every girl group out there

Changbin and Lee Know used to fight a bit during the early days

Han fought with everyone during the early days

Of the top of my head, Lee Know has been tapped by Gucci, Chan has been tapped by Fendi, Felix by Louis Vuitton, Hyunjin by Versace

I... am running out of time to type this out so, yeah, you can check out their wikipedia page, or watch any of the introduction videos as those will cover things about them pretty well. I hope this was good enough to get you started!

Дорогой мой Друг, я хочу сказать Тебе кое-что.

Мне, честно, Неважно, общаемся мы или нет, Ты должен знать, Ты должен Раз и Навсегда запомнить, что у Тебя Всегда есть я. Ты можешь звонить или писать мне в Любое время, если Тебе это Необходимо. Ты можешь даже приехать ко мне, если почувствуешь Себя Плохо. Я буду Долго Тебя обнимать, а потом мы будем просто сидеть Рядом в Тишине до тех пор, пока у Тебя Снова появится Силы, чтобы говорить. Ты можешь (и Всегда мог!) рассказать мне буквально обо Всём, что с Тобой случается, я, честно, готова принять это, по крайней мере, я буду очень сильно стараться Тебя понять в Любой ситуации.

Потому что мне не всё равно, правда.

Просто знай, что у Тебя есть я, даже если мы уже давно не Друзья.

I'm waiting for the time I'm not angry with them* anymore.

It’s midnight here. I wish I would be drunk but I am not. But I have watched Ladybird. 

I think it’s beautiful. It’s not a good movie but still the relationship between Ladybird and her mom was warm despite all the fights that they had. It made me realize I do the stupid things like Ladybird.  

I've got to make a life of my own, and I want to that. And I will. 

When I will success I know they will support me. At least I hope that. 

Anyway I wanna make a good life for my future.

See if it will turn into real my dreams, my plans.
