Last week, Stray Kids took the stage headlining the I-Days music festival in Milan followed by BST Hyde Park in London. Next month, the group will headline Lollapalooza in Chicago on August 2nd, heating the summer of 2024 by headlining three major music festivals. Earlier this year, Stray Kids released “Lose My Breath,” an epic collaboration with Charlie Puth.
In November 2023, Stray Kids won the Top K-Pop Album Award for ★★★★★ (5-Star) at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards. This marked Stray Kids as “the first fourth-generation K-pop boy band to win the award” and also “second only to BTS in terms of all K-pop boy groups.” This year, the group has continued to dominate global awards shows, taking home Group of the Year at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards in February and K-Pop Album of the Year at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards in April.
