Stray Kids has returned with their new mini-album THIS & THAT, giving fans eight new tracks as the 8-member group continues one of their busiest eras. The album opens with the digital single RUN IT, which was written and produced by the group’s in-house production team, 3RACHA, formed by members Bang Chan, Changbin, and HAN. The track was originally released in June 2026 and focuses on Stray Kids’ growth from their beginnings in Seoul to becoming an internationally successful group.
According to the members, their message is also about overcoming challenges and continuing toward bigger goals. “It expresses our determination to overcome challenges and limitations and ultimately move forward to victory,” the group told Billboard in an official statement.
The project comes as Stray Kids keeps expanding their fan demand through major international performances. The “Case 143” hitmakers are expected to become the first KPop act to perform at and headline the Rock in Rio Brazil festival. In addition, Stray Kids are launching STRAYCITY, a series of festival-like concerts in Latin America. Their run includes shows across Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico. Set to begin on September 9, 2026, at Vive Claro Distrito Cultural in Bogotá, the Latin American run is expected to conclude on September 25, 2026, at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City.
