its stray kids szn. they have to be the biggest boyband from jyp. i wonder if they can match bts over the next couple of years. jyp better put in the effort :redface:

Their records used to be limited towards 4th gen only, but they are now slowly coming for BTS' wigs. They are the only boy group closest to matching BTS' success in the future. 

 

Here are some of the things Stray Kids achieved this year:

 

- They are the best selling Kpop act this year with almost 5M sales. 

- They have the 4th best selling album of all time in Kpop history (MAXIDENT) being only behind 3 BTS albums. 

- They became the 2nd Kpop act in history to have multiple albums go #1 on BB200 after BTS.

- They are the only musical act in the world to have multiple albums going #1 on BB200 in 2022. 

- They are the first Korean act to debut their first charting albums on BB200 at #1

- They surpassed EXO on Spotify and are now the 2nd most streamed Kpop boy group of all time, being only behind BTS.

- They are overall the 4th most streamed Kpop act on Spotify of all time being only behind BTS, BLACKPINK & TWICE (The 3 biggest Kpop acts of all time)

- They also blew up in China this year, and Hyunjin has the highest C-Bar by any male Kpop act in history surpassing V.

- Felix has 4th highest male C-Bar being only behind Hyunjin, V & Jungkook. 

- Lee Know has the top 2 most viewed fancams this year outside of V and Jungkook

They probably are the most hard working group we have at the moment. 3 albums this year, countless MVs, a world tour going on where they perform over 25-30 songs every night and Maxident's promotion-circle alone was massive. 

 

 

On top of that they are the main producers of their albums. So imagine doing their regular idol job + this. 

Their promo campaign this year has been top notch, and I honestly haven't seen a group getting promoted better than them :clap3:They way they have been on EVERY VARIETY SHOW and feeding us with so much weekly content, like I can't keep up sometimes and I'm so overwhelmed:dies:

 

Like:

 

- 2 Korean albums

- Japanese album

- Maniac World Tour

- Appearing on all these big variety shows

- SKZ Talker

- SKZ code

- 2 Kids room

- Chan's weekly VLIVE

- Lee Know's MC gig on Music Core

 etc.

 

And is if they weren't busy already, they also produce all their music themselves as you mentioned :deadbanana2:

this is how i KNOW you're either trolling or only watched a shitty compilation of clips because half of those points don't even make sense. jennie especially is having the most fun i've seen her have in any of their concerts before, the girl is shining having the time of her life performing and even revealing a new song.

 

the girls are the happiest they've looked in a long time now that they're finally back on stage but you'll still find people with room temperature IQs spouting this same old nonsense :ahh: i've seen houseplants more intelligent than the people that create those videos

I mean anyone with functioning brain cells wouldn't expect an objective "review" on a BP concert from a YouTube account called "Bts forever". Any concert would look bad in a short video that only points out mistakes. Of course this blowing things out of proportions only happens to BP like I'm not even surprised anymore.

 

The girls are good and having fun which is what matters. Can we please now put this tired topic to rest my GOD it's been weeks

It's seriously impressive. Their day must have more than 24 hours for them to have time to do all these things. 

 

My only fear is that one day they may collapse.

 

I know they are passionate for what they do, for Stray Kids and all of them are living the moment of their lives.. 

 

But passion can only take you so far. They are human, after all. I hope they are resting well and taking care of their mental health in the process. 

 

By the way, do you have any idea what SKZFLIX will be about?

Well Jennie was surely enjoying the Texan air bc she looked so happy in Dallas and Houston!  All the people that attended said that she interacted so much with the crowd and her energy was so on point :jonnycat:! I guess she’s going to be even better in LA then :fan:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

b-b-but she forgot a move in the choreography

a-a-and she was offbeat by a millisecond!!!!

how can people enjoy this mess? :angry:

SKZFLIX = NETFLIX?

 

Maybe it has something to do with web drama?

I wonder if RV comeback will be pushed back. I doubt anyone would make a comeback for the whole month of November

Before the tragedy, I was thinking their announcement would come on Tuesday (November 1st).

But there probably won't be anything this week now because of the national mourning period until November 5th, which is the right thing to do.

 

If we don't get an announcement on November 7th, then I think SM has delayed it. The girls need at least 3/4 weeks pre-order time, so I hope SM doesn't use this as an excuse to do them dirty again. If they announce any later than the 7th then there's not much time till the end of the month.

 

Also KARA is coming back on November 29th, I wonder if they will postpone slightly too?

steadily :bird:1,500 preorders if it’s isn’t their debut they will eventually hit 100k I hope they focus on this sub unit first 

 

Xiaoting = Le sserafirm 

Sullyoon = IVE the way they wouldn’t threatened WY and Sakura.  
 

Stop with the fake concern most blinks who attended were happy and enjoyed the tour let’s stop with the 4 same clips.

Kim Jisoo, the woman you are today!

I'm so proud seeing the performer she has become today 

she doesn't complain, works hard and has worked hard to beat those "useless" allegations 

 

to see her blossom right before our eyes is something special

Their lore is so messy omg, like they should just drop it cause nobody understands it anyways :deadbanana2: Their team have been very bad at showcasing their lore and fleshing it out. Their small hints in their mv's have been very hard to analyze, and nobody wants to sit with a microscope just to get a small hint of what it can maybe be etc. :deadbanana2:

I believe they're unofficially officially just AKB48 with blockchain (replacing album sales) since they moved into their haus way before AKB48 announced their web3 product last month.
