In a week dominated by Super Bowl talks, Stray Kids went and conquered the global box office with their concert movie “Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience”, which opened to more than $19 million worldwide this past weekend, outpacing every other release at international cinemas. The documentary-style film, distributed by Universal Pictures International and Bleecker Street, combines footage from the group’s sold-out dominATE World Tour performances at SoFi Stadium with behind-the-scenes material that highlights the personal stories of all eight members — Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin and I.N. 

The 2026 Governors Ball Music Festival has unveiled its headlining sets – embracing pop, hip-hop and K-pop power in one of the most culturally diverse lineups in the event’s history. BLACKPINK’s Jennie, Harlem native A$AP Rocky and global K-pop phenomenon Stray Kids are set to top the bill alongside fellow headliners Lorde for the three-day festival running June 5–7, 2026, at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, New York City.

K-Pop group Stray Kids have done what no artist has ever done before: their latest album DO IT debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, extending their perfect run to eight consecutive chart-topping albums. This landmark achievement cements them as the first act in the seven-decade history of the chart to debut their first eight entries at the summit.

One of the largest and oldest music festivals in the world, Rock in Rio, just announced its 2026 slate of headliners. The legendary festival – which was first held in 1985 – will feature an exciting lineup that includes British living legend Sir Elton John and K-Pop boy group sensation Stray Kids. The landmark music events are set to unfold over two weekends on September 4-7, 2026 and September 11-13, 2026.

Disney’s highly anticipated Zootopia 2 is delving into K-pop land: boyband Stray Kids’ own animated alter egos, SKZOO, are officially collaborating with the film in a creative pop-up and hidden Easter-egg campaign. The announcement was made via a teaser video on November 18, where the eight-member group appeared on Disney Korea’s page to herald the surprise collaboration.

In July, boy band *NSYNC’s 2000 hit “Bye Bye Bye” enjoyed a renaissance thanks to its inclusion in Marvel’s superhero tentpole “Deadpool & Wolverine.” The song’s signature marionette dance, which appears on a key scene in the film, quickly trended on social media and became a massive viral hit. Now, the iconic song gets a well-deserved tribute at the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary.
