Stray Kids are still proving why they are the kings of the Kpop scene with their most recent album, “DO IT.” The idols are not only conquering the Korean market but the American one as well. There’s no doubt why the boys are earning major recognition from different media outlets and official organisations.

On November 30 KST, Forbes, known for its rankings, including the famous list of the richest Americans and the Kpop biggest idols, made a major announcement. In the newly released “Top 30 K-Idols of the Year 2025” rankings, Stray Kids skyrocketed to the top of the list!

Stray Kids’ meteoric rise this year is highly attributed to their global impact, powered by their constant media buzz, unmatched fandom support and record-breaking records during the year. One of the many achievements by Stray Kids was having back-to-back million seller releases, including “KARMA” and “DO IT,” along with eight consecutive Billboard 200 No. 1 debuts.

Ultimately, Stray Kids’ ranking on the list only shows their powerful status as one of the leading forces shaping the present and future of the Kpop scene. Do you agree with this position? Let us know in the comments.
