2017 – 2018: BEFORE DEBUT
The formation operates under JYP Entertainment, which paves the way for popular groups such as Wonder Girls, 2PM, MISS A, GOT7, DAY6 and Twice. The members of the latter were also selected by a survival show, as was the case with Stray Kids. On October 6, a pre-debut song titled “Hellevator” was released, and from the 11th, JYP introduced the members through photo series. The Stray Kids reality show was released on October 17the first part, in which we learned that an all-boy formation will definitely debut soon, but an unexpected news made the boys sad and motivated on the other hand. They learn that not all boys can be part of the next group, so the best friends will be forced to compete with each other to stay in.
In the second part, Minho unfortunately became the member who cannot become a member of the team, so until the eighth part, the formation consisted of 8 boys. In the eighth episode, the dream of another member, Felix, was shattered due to his poor Korean language skills, so there were only seven left until the last episode. To the delight of the fans and the two boys, JYP gave them a second chance, which they took advantage of. So Stray Kids will finally debut with nine members in early 2018. Their pre-debut album “Mixtape” was released on January 8, 2018 .with a name that includes their songs performed in their show.
2018: DEBUT WITH “I AM NOT” MID-ALBUM, COME BACK IN AUGUST AND OCTOBER
On March 5th, JYPE released a teaser video for their album “I Am NOT”, in which an anti-establishment speech is heard while showing the seriousness of the nine boys. At the end of the video, it was revealed that their debut showcase will be held on March 25th as “Stray Kids UNVEIL [Op.01: I Am Not]”.
On March 13, fans were shown the song list of their first album, which includes a total of 8 songs. On the 21st, the group presented short music videos featuring the lyrics of “NOT!”, “Mirror” and “District 9” . At midnight the next day, he uploaded several spoiler videos, this time “Rock, “Grow Up”for numbers. On March 24, we were able to take a look at a few seconds of the main title song, i.e. “District 9”, as well as frames of the clip shot for it. Finally, the mini-album officially debuted on March 26, and “District 9” was also uploaded to video sharing sites.
The music video reached 4.2 million views in 24 hours, setting a record among k-pop groups for the most views for a debut song, beating Wanna One’s “Energetic” music video to second place. The album is very popular, having topped the iTunes charts in 10 countries on March 27, including Canada, Thailand, Peru, Argentina and Finland.
On March 23, Stray Kids released the music video for the song “Grow Up”, and on April 22, the music video for “Mirror” was also released on video sharing sites.
At midnight on July 12th, JYP Entertainment gave fans the good news that Stray Kids will be making their first comeback since their debut on August 5th. The announcement also revealed that the name of their new mini-album is “I Am Who” . On July 16, fans could pre-order the boys’ song. On July 22, the series of teasers began, first they introduced us to the album’s song list, and then some concept photos were also published on the Internet.
Amid great excitement, the team’s official fandom name was also announced via a video, which was chosen to be Stay , the name derived from the phrase “Where Stray Kids STAY”. Finally, the Stays and of course the non-Stays could watch the video clip for the lead song of the album on August 6, i.e. the“My Pace”. The music video reached 7.2 million views within 24 hours, making it 17th on the “Most viewed k-pop music videos in the first 24 hours” list. As was the case with their debut, they shot music videos for some of their songs from the album. First, the video for “Voices” was published on August 15th, followed four days later by “MIA” and finally, on the 27th, the music video for “Awkward Silence” was also uploaded.
On October 3, 2018, at midnight, JYP Entertainment uploaded a picture to Twitter, announcing that the group’s third studio album titled “I Am You” is coming soon. The photo also stated that their first comeback performance will be on October 21st and will run under the name “Stray Kids UNVEIL [Op.03: I Am YOU] at Olympic Hall.
In the picture, the letter K in the inscription Stray Kids was now in blue, so fans already started to speculate. While on their debut, the certain letter was red, which symbolizes danger, rage and adventure, their song “District 9” fits this description perfectly. During their “I Am Who” era, the letter K changed to lemon yellow, which symbolizes energy, optimism and positivity, accordingly, their song “My Pace” turned out to be the same. So the color blue is equal to loyalty, calmness and at the same time sadness, so if everything is true, their song “I Am You” will now have a calmer style, unlike their previous fast-paced songs.
The next day, on the 4th, we also learned that, as we were used to with their previous compositions, the lyrics and music of the songs on the mini-album were put together by the members themselves, and the album could be pre-ordered that same evening.
At midnight on October 8, the tracklist for “I Am You” was made public, so we learned that we will be able to find a total of eight songs, including the title track, i.e. “I Am You”.
A day later, we were able to find more detailed information about the album, and a concept photo of the boys was also published, on which the inscription “You make Stray Kids Stay” can be seen.
On the other days, some teaser photos of the team were published, and we could also listen to the instrumental versions of the songs on the middle album for a few seconds.
On October 18, the preview of the “I Am You” music video was uploaded, and then an article was published on the Naver portal, in which details about the song were revealed. “I Am You” is a hip-hop genre song that combines powerful rap and emotional singing that suggest hope for unstable youth. For youth who are constantly searching for themselves and would love to show how they are fighting the difficulties of growing up. “
Finally, on October 22, the long-awaited clip was uploaded to YouTube.
On November 2nd, JYPE announced that Stray Kids will start their first tour on January 19th, 2019 called “UNVEIL TOUR” . Their first stop was Bankok, and they also visited Jakarta, Melbourne, Sydney, Manila, Newark, Los Angeles and Houston.

I was very happy when I found out that nine of us would debut, but I’m sorry I couldn’t defend the number nine to the end. Above all the fact that we can no longer be nine, we are in a situation where we have no choice but to accept the reality. Even today, the Stays were very worried about Stray Kids. We are fine and we hope that the Stays they weren’t hurt too much either. Although it will be a challenge to overcome this in the future, the eight members will remain strong. We Stray Kids will continue to make music and perform and be the strength of the Stays. Stay…I’m still sorry and thank you . You Make Stray Kids Stay.”
