On the day of its release, it reached No. 1 on YouTube’s music video trending charts in 25 regions, including the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Brazil, and topped the global trending chart, proving its high level of buzz. With their comeback, Stray Kids have also kicked off their music show promotions. Starting with KBS2’s “Music Bank,” they will continue to perform their new song on shows such as MBC’s “Show!

The momentum from the new album is carrying over into their world tour. Stray Kids are currently on their new world tour, “RUN IT,” which began with a concert in Seoul, and later this month, they will become the first male artist from outside Japan to hold a solo concert at the National Stadium in Tokyo. Following that, in September, they will meet global fans at the Brazilian music festival “Rock in Rio” and their own festival, “STRAYCITY.”
