5 reasons to be with the Stray Kids on Saturday

Stray Kids, a 9-member boy group making headlines worldwide, will bring their fierce stages to Manila on April 27.

You’ve probably heard of the new kids shaking up the scene—Stray Kids. The nine-member boy group was formed by JYP Entertainment through a reality show of the same name in 2017. The group officially debuted in 2018 and made headlines as they showcased their own brand of fierce with tracks like “Hellevator” and “My Pace.”

 

Fresh from the release of their latest comeback “Miroh,” the monster rookies are expected to set fire to the Smart Araneta Coliseum this month,  marking their first concert in the country. Stays—it’s what their fandom is called—proved their dedication as tickets continue to sell out fast. So here are five reasons on why you shouldn’t pass up on watching them this April 27th:

Probably one of the best things about a group with nine members is the stunning formations aided by creative choreography. One of their most iconic performances was on their reality show, where they impressed fellow rookies from rival YG Entertainment with an amusing yet jaw-dropping performance in a dance battle. Keep your eye on Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix, the amazingly talented main dancers of the group.

 

  1. Five albums

 

Just over a year in the industry, Stray Kids already has five albums under their belt. Every record stands on its own and brings something new to the table. All of their past releases are characterized by their signature style. The member’s vocals, particularly Woojin, Seungmin and I.N.’s, will definitely leave you asking for more!

 

  1. The members

They’re down to earth, relatable and amusing kids—what’s not to love?

 

  1. Stray Kids will definitely make you a Stay by the end of the night.
