Stray Kids has achieved a groundbreaking milestone, becoming the first 4th-generation K-pop boy group to surpass 500 million views on a single music video. Their hit track "神Menu" (God’s Menu) reached this impressive number on February 9 at 8:55 p.m. KST, cementing their status as global top artists.

This record comes just days after another major achievement—on February 7, the music video for "Sorikkun", the title track of their second full album "NOEASY", exceeded 400 million views on YouTube.

Originally written and composed by 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han), "神Menu" left a lasting impact on both Korean and international fans with its addictive melody, bold lyrics, and experimental performance style. The song has solidified Stray Kids' reputation for creating their own unique genre within K-pop.

Beyond their YouTube success, Stray Kids continues to dominate the global music market. With their SKZHOP HIPTAPE '合 (HOP)', released in December 2023, they secured their sixth consecutive No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The group has also sold over 30 million albums across Korea and Japan, earned eight gold certifications from the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), and received a nomination at the US iHeartRadio Music Awards for the second consecutive year.

Their ongoing ‘Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE>’ is expected to attract 2.2 million fans, potentially setting a record for the most-attended K-pop tour in history. The tour has expanded to 55 performances across 34 cities, including stadium shows in Latin America, Japan, North America, and Europe, starting in March.

Before their stadium tour, Stray Kids will hold their fifth official fan meeting, 'SKZ 5'CLOCK', at Incheon Inspire Arena from February 14 to 16, offering fans an exciting opportunity to connect with the group.
