Stray Kids will demonstrate their global influence by becoming the first foreign male artist to take the stage at Japan's Tokyo National Stadium.

Stray Kids will hold performances for their new world tour 'RUN IT' at Tokyo National Stadium on the 29th and 30th. This concert carries great significance, as it marks the first solo performance at Tokyo National Stadium by a foreign male artist. Beginning with the Tokyo shows, the group will hold a total of seven performances across four Japanese cities — Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka — expected to draw 370,000 attendees.

The group's chart performance is also noteworthy. Their mini album 'THIS & THAT' topped Billboard's main chart, the 'Billboard 200,' achieving their ninth No. 1 overall and setting a new record for the most No. 1s by a group in the 21st century. In its second week on the chart, the album ranked No. 3 on the 'Billboard 200' and No. 1 in the 'World Albums' category, proving the group's solid global popularity.

This upward momentum will continue in the second half of the year. On September 11, they will perform as headliners at Brazil's 'Rock in Rio' festival and take the stage at 'STRAYCITY,' a new festival in Latin America. They will then release their fourth Japanese mini album 'SUIATSU' on November 25, ramping up their local activities.

Attention is focused on the future moves of Stray Kids, who continue to set remarkable records on the world stage.
