Stray Kids successfully completed their solo concert at the National Stadium in Tokyo, Japan. They set a record as the first overseas male artist to hold a solo concert at this venue.

The concert took place on August 29 and 30 at the National Stadium (MUFG STADIUM) in Tokyo as part of the world tour ’RUN IT.’ This tour, which began in Japan, was significant because it marked the first time an overseas male artist held a solo concert at the National Stadium in Tokyo. Over the two days, STAYs (the fandom name) filled the venue with passionate support.

The concert opened with ″We In,″ followed by hit songs such as ″Hellevator,″ ″Side Effects,″ and ″Double Knot.″ The setlist continued with popular tracks including ″MANIAC,″ ″God’s Menu,″ ″Sori-kun,″ ″Special,″ and ″This & That.″ For the first time, performances of ″just a little″ from the Japanese mini-album 3rd EP ’Hollow’ and ″Fate″ were revealed. Additionally, the Japanese versions of ″CASE 143″ and ″Social Path (Feat. LiSA)″ were performed, showcasing songs released locally.

A total of 140,000 people attended the National Stadium over the two days. On the 30th, alongside the offline concert, paid online live streaming and live viewing were held simultaneously, allowing a cumulative audience of 175,000 to enjoy the performance. The concert concluded with a spectacular fireworks display.

Stray Kids members shared their thoughts, saying, ″It was undoubtedly a day to remember. Thank you all so much for creating such an incredible sight that made us almost doubt our eyes. We love you.″ They also spoke about their upcoming Japanese mini-album 4th EP ’SUIATSU,’ set to be released on November 25, stating, ″We are confident about the next album. We will continue to deliver the best works that satisfy everyone.″

Including the National Stadium concert, all seven shows across four Japanese regions—Vantelin Dome Nagoya, Kyocera Dome Osaka, Mizuho PayPay Dome Fukuoka—were sold out. On the final day of the concert, August 30, an additional performance at Tokyo Dome was announced on-site, with three shows scheduled from November 6 to 8.

Accordingly, Stray Kids will visit Japan’s four major dome venues in sequence: Vantelin Dome Nagoya on September 5-6, Kyocera Dome Osaka on September 19-20, Mizuho PayPay Dome Fukuoka on October 24, and Tokyo Dome in November. Including the National Stadium concert, the seven sold-out shows and the three Tokyo Dome performances are expected to attract approximately 520,000 attendees during the Japan leg of the world tour.

Stray Kids’ growth continued in their musical activities as well. Their mini-album ’THIS & THAT,’ released on August 7, achieved their ninth consecutive No. 1 on the US Billboard main album chart ’Billboard 200,’ making them the group with the most No. 1 albums on the chart in the 21st century.

The musical achievements of the group’s producing team 3RACHA—Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han—also drew attention. As of August 26, Bang Chan is registered as the copyright holder for 243 songs with the Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA), making him the K-pop idol with the most registered copyrights. Changbin and Han have 207 and 204 songs registered, respectively. The three members consistently demonstrate strong self-producing capabilities.
