The group Stray Kids will embark on a new large-scale world tour, 'RUN IT,' starting with performances in Seoul this July.

Their agency, JYP Entertainment, released the first-round plan poster for the world tour 'RUN IT' through its official SNS channels on the 23rd. The tour will kick off with a total of five performances from July 25 to August 2 at KSPO DOME in Songpa-gu, Seoul. Following this, the group will hold solo concerts in locations including the Tokyo National Stadium, Nagoya, Osaka, Fukuoka, Hong Kong, Taipei, Bangkok, and Singapore, with additional venues to be announced sequentially.

In particular, through this tour, Stray Kids will earn the title of 'the first foreign male artist to hold a solo concert at the Tokyo National Stadium.' The seven performances held exclusively in Japan are expected to draw an audience of approximately 370,000. This stage comes about nine months after the conclusion of their previous tour last October, and is already generating enthusiastic responses from global fans.

Along with the tour, the release of new music also coincides. Stray Kids will pre-release a digital single titled 'RUN IT,' sharing the same name as the world tour, on the 24th at 1 PM. This song, which captures the members' energy of expanding into a larger world, will also be included in their new mini-album 'THIS & THAT,' set for release on August 7.

Meanwhile, Stray Kids are also actively performing on stages at major overseas music festivals. Having successfully completed their performance at New York's 'The Governors Ball Music Festival' earlier this month, they plan to appear at Brazil's 'Rock in Rio' and the new festival 'STRAYCITY' to be held in three regions across Latin America in September, adding grandeur to the global lineup.
