Stray Kids dominate US album charts... The only K-pop group to enter the 'Top 10'


Stray Kids solidified their status as a 'global top artist' by ranking in the top 10 for album and CD sales in the United States in 2025. According to the '2025 Year-End Music Report' released on the 14th by music and entertainment data aggregator Luminate, Stray Kids secured high positions in both the U.S. Top 10 Albums and U.S. Top 10 CD Albums charts with multiple releases from 2024 and 2025.

In the U.S. Top Albums category, Stray Kids' fourth studio album 'KARMA,' released in August 2025, sold 585,000 copies, ranking 2nd, while SKZ IT TAPE 'DO IT,' released in November, sold 460,000 copies, ranking 4th. This made Stray Kids the only K-pop artist to appear in the top 10 of this chart.

Additionally, in the U.S. Top CD Albums category, 'KARMA' ranked 2nd, achieving the highest position for a K-pop album. 'DO IT' ranked 3rd, and SKZHOP HIPTAPE '合 (HOP),' released in December 2024, ranked 6th. Stray Kids became the only artist to place three albums in the top 10, establishing themselves with multiple entries on this chart.

Last year, Stray Kids set records by debuting at number one on the Billboard 200, the main Billboard album chart, with 'KARMA' and 'DO IT' achieving seven and eight consecutive weeks at number one, respectively. They completed their world tour 'Stray Kids World Tour 〈 dominATE 〉' across 56 shows in 35 regions worldwide, earning multiple awards and achieving firsts and best results. Through this, Stray Kids have demonstrated their presence as 'history makers.'

Stray Kids also stood out in the 2025 U.S. album sales rankings, showcasing their strong global influence. They plan to continue active promotions in 2026. On the 22nd, they will attend the 'Le Gala des Pièces jaunes' charity event in France for the second time. They will headline the U.S. 'The Governors Ball Music Festival' on June 6 and Brazil's 'Rock in Rio' on September 11.

These achievements further expand Stray Kids' potential as K-pop artists and strengthen their position in the global market. They plan to continue engaging with fans through various musical activities and performances.
