It’s no secret to anyone that the Stray Kids boys have set a milestone with their EP “MAXIDENT”, as according to reports from JYP Entertainment, the studio work surpassed 3 million copies sold, something really amazing considering it’s KPOP.
This is how STAY in the United States has been one of the fandoms base that has bought the EP the most, becoming one of the best sellers of the year in the country. But as the listing of the availability of KPOP albums in the United States during December was revealed, fans showed their anger.
Because the sabotage is clear, the album is one of the most demanded albums but the stores in the United States did not order new copies. This is how “MAXIDENT” is practically scarce in stores like TARGET, a situation that makes it impossible to increase the album’s sales and its stability in the US charts.

One fan even denounced with evidence that when she went to a Target store, the employees claimed that the album was not available, but after protesting, they searched the warehouse and surprisingly 30 copies appeared in a box, other fans also claimed to experience similar situations.

Several emails have been sent to JYP Entertainment and Republic Records to take action on the matter, as this seriously affects the group’s popularity in the United States, taking into account that KPOP is one of the genres that is currently generating more physical sales in the music industry.
