Stray Kids to Release Mini Album 'THIS & THAT' on Aug. 7
'THIS & THAT' is an eight-track mini landing August 7, teased by a comeback trailer that made zero literal sense and total emotional sense. it follows June's 'RUN IT' and comes with KSPO Dome shows plus an entire world tour.
stray kids opened this era with a comeback trailer at midnight KST on july 8 that made zero literal sense and complete emotional sense, which is simply how they operate now. we watched it eleven times. we understood nothing. we felt everything.
the album is 'THIS & THAT,' out august 7 at 1 p.m. KST, and the tracklist landed on july 10: eight tracks total, including 'After You,' 'FARMING,' 'I Do,' 'Way Out' and 'Back Then' — plus a festival version of the title track, because they know exactly what they're doing to their own setlists.
'RUN IT' is on there too, the pre-release the eight of them put out back in june, so the momentum was already banked before the trailer even dropped. that's not a rollout. that's a siege.
and the teasers have not stopped since, including an 'UNVEIL' clip for the b-side 'FARMING' on july 17. eight members, one relentless content schedule, zero consideration for anyone who holds down a job.
stack the KSPO Dome dates and the world tour on top of it and the math gets simple: STAY are not resting this year. stretch, hydrate, set an alarm for august 7. 🔥

Stray Kids' Lee Know Donates 100 Million Won for Nepal Floods
the idol gave to world vision on august 28, specifically asking that it go toward food, clean water and shelter for families hit by the floods.
taking a soft moment because this one is genuinely lovely: Stray Kids' Lee Know has donated 100 million won (around $72,610) to help families affected by the floods in Nepal.
he made the donation on august 28 to the NGO World Vision, and specifically requested that the funds go toward life-saving aid — food and nutritional support, clean water, temporary housing, and sanitation and hygiene help for people who lost so much.
no big rollout, no fanfare — just a meaningful gift aimed exactly where it's needed most. that's the kind of thing that reminds you why you love these artists beyond the music.
sending love to everyone affected by the flooding, and a lot of respect to Lee Know for showing up. quietly iconic behavior. 🤍
