Quotes

“I’ve never [received any sort of proposal on Valentine’s Day]… When I was in middle school, someone from another school sent me a letter once!”

“I want fans to say, ‘I want to come back to watch another Stray Kids concert’ after they see us perform.”

“Going forward, we’ll continue to bring you even better music! I hope this period passes soon, so we can show you lots of greater and cooler performances.”

“Because we haven’t worked on these types of love songs a lot, and we lack a lot of experience, we researched many movies, dramas, and songs related to love while working on the song. We also tried really hard to put a lot of emotions into it.”

“Fans who say they’ve seen me improve so much, it makes me really happy.”

I was once scared of making mistakes on stage, but now I’ve changed my way of thinking. I now keep the thought, ‘How can one live without making any mistakes’ in mind when practicing and taking vocal lessons.”

“I was most proud to be Stray Kids when we all came together to exchange opinions to prepare for the perfect stage.”
