First, is Stray Kids are unlike most K-Pop groups; Stray Kids have a unique sound and style that sets them apart driving people from all over the world to their music. They incorporate different genres into their songs, including hip-hop, EDM, and rock. Their music is known for its powerful beats and intelligent and meaningful lyrics, which resonate with their fans.
Next, Stray Kids' have a strong and dedicated fanbase, known as STAY. Stray Kids' STAYs are highly engaged on social media and actively promote the group's music and activities with fierce loyalty and enthusiasm. This has helped increase Stray Kids' visibility and popularity *cough Deadpool cough Ryan Reynolds cough*.
STAYs agree that it's not hard to promote a group where each member is unique yet highly skilled in music production, lyricism, singing, dancing, and rapping; where each member has a very strong stage presence but together their group energy on and off the stage is mesmerizing, which makes their performances entertaining and their content memorable. Not to mention they are the most accredited youngest Idols on KOMCA with their very own members producing, writing and participating in every aspect of their discography, which help STAYs connect to their music on deep personal levels.
Stray Kids frequently create engaging content for STAY, including behind-the-scenes videos known as 'Talkers', member vlogs, live streams and an on-going web series titled 'SKZ Code'. Which allows STAYs to see Stray Kids engage in various activities and games. From camping to haunted classrooms, flying yoga to screaming matches on a flying pirate ship and even a sword fight with balloons; SKZ Code always brings the members & STAYs closer with each new episode filled with inside joke commentary, lots of laughs and lasting memories. Stray Kids never rest always making sure they are never far from STAY. This has helped build a connection between the group and STAYs, making us feel more invested in the group's success as well as their happiness.
It's because of Stray Kids unique makeup of extraordinary talent, with members who are true to themselves and committed to each other and STAY, engaging content, extensive discography filled with personal connection's that Stray Kids and STAY are a family.
So, when we see our leader keep his promise no matter what to go live for 1 hour every week just to hang out with us for over 200 weeks consecutively only missing a handful when circumstances were beyond the power of even the strongest leader and the fiercest STAYs, we return his dedication by keeping our promise; to STAY with Stray Kids!
When Lee know tells STAYs that we are Stray Kids cause Stray Kids are STAY and makes sure to send us a good night message almost every night, we return his loyalty by counting with him on bubble to see how many days are left till his birthday.
When we see our Sunshine overflowing with tears of joy because the love he feels can't be contained just like the stars that kissed his cheeks, we cry with him until the sun shines through him again.
When we see one of our youngest members stop on stage and just stare in wonder looking at STAYs with overwhelming love, we return the promise to be HERE ALWAYS cause Seungmin finally believes in eternity because of STAYs.
When we hear our Hyunjin's lyrics in #LoveSTAY then watch him get lost in the sea of lights, we return that love by being the beat of the music he always hears in his heart that he is always moving to.
When we feel Changbin's power through his voice reaching out to those who are hurting looking for solace, giving us strength, we return that strength by sticking to our Jutdae.
When we hear HAN belt out a high note that's meant to reach the heavens but it's just for STAYs because we are the ones that saved his life, we return his gift by always being his ego, his pride and his dream.
When our Maknae engraved STAY on a ring that he never takes off so we are always with him, we return that love by fulfilling his dreams of finding value in EVERYTHING that Stray Kids do.
Overall, Stray Kids' success can be attributed to their unique sound and style, strong passionate fanbase, talented members, engaging content, and global appeal but to STAYs their success is our pride because we are their Reason and they are our Promise. Our relationship with Stray Kids has been described as symbiotic, and to some that can seem unhealthy but in reality the relationship between the members and STAY is one of mutual support and appreciation. The group relies on their fans for support and motivation, while STAYs are devoted to supporting Stray Kids in their music career and personal lives, because most of us found a reason to STAY through Stray Kids. We believe that our close relationship has helped to make Stray Kids one of the most successful and beloved K-pop groups today. And we know there will never be a last 'STEP OUT', we will be Stray Kids and STAY; to infinity and beyond.
