Stray Kids Achieve Fourth Gold Certification in France

Stray Kids are celebrating a significant milestone as they have received their fourth gold certification from the French National Syndicate of Phonographic Publishing (SNEP) for their album 'SKZ-PLAYER: HAP' (합). The announcement was made on April 10, 2025, via SNEP's official website. Founded in 1922, SNEP awards certifications based on album and single sales. Released on December 13, 2024, 'HAP' surpassed 50,000 units sold, earning the gold status. This achievement adds to their previous gold certifications for 'FIVE STAR', 'ROCKSTAR', and 'EIGHT'.

Building on this momentum, Stray Kids are set to release their third mini-album in Japan, titled 'Holo', on June 18, 2025. This marks their first Japanese release in over three years since their second mini-album 'Circus' in June 2022.

Since their official debut in Japan in March 2020, Stray Kids have dominated major local music charts, including Oricon, Tower Records, and Billboard Japan. Last year, they held six concerts at Tokyo Dome and Kyocera Dome Osaka during their world tour 'DOMINO', attracting over 315,000 fans. Recently, their Japanese single 'Scalps/Sorikkun Japanese Version', released in October 2021, achieved a cumulative shipment of 250,000 copies, earning platinum certification from the Japan Record Association, further heightening anticipation for their return to Japan.

Stray Kids are currently engaging with global fans through their 'DOMINO' world tour. They recently performed in five Latin American cities, including Santiago, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Lima, and Mexico City, drawing approximately 400,000 attendees across eight stadium shows.

On May 10-11 and 17-18, they will hold four solo concerts at Shizuoka Stadium Ecopa, marking their first performances at a stadium venue in Japan. Additionally, they will perform in Rome on July 30. This tour is expected to gather a total of 2.2 million fans, setting a new record for the highest attendance for a single K-pop tour.
