Stray Kids becomes first overseas male artist to successfully hold a solo concert at Japan National Stadium
Group Stray Kids has successfully concluded its solo concert at the Tokyo National Stadium (MUFG Stadium), becoming the first overseas male artist to do so. At the venue, fans were thrilled by the surprise announcement of additional concerts at Tokyo Dome in November. Following the performance, fan-cam videos and on-site photos flooded social media platforms such as X (Twitter), vividly conveying the intense atmosphere of the concert online.
Stray Kids held their Japan tour dates for 'RUN IT' at the National Stadium over two days on the 29th and 30th. This follows in the footsteps of their senior group TWICE from the same agency, which became the first overseas artist to perform on this stage. Stray Kids are now the first male artists to take the stage here, drawing a total of 140,000 attendees over the two days.
During the concert, they performed their new song 'This & That' live for the first time. Members also walked down into the aisles between seats to shake hands with fans multiple times, creating several moments of intimate connection.
Especially on the final day, Hyunjin repeatedly said "I love you" while greeting the audience, creating a touching moment. Japanese singer LiSA, who has had a long-standing relationship with the group, reportedly praised their performance as energetic yet delicate, and commended them for roaming around the stadium to communicate with fans.
Immediately after the second day's concert concluded, a surprise announcement was made that they would hold additional three-day performances at Tokyo Dome from November 6th to 8th, sending cheers in the venue to their peak. This marks Stray Kids' return to the Tokyo Dome stage for the first time in approximately two years since their 'dominATE JAPAN' tour in November 2024.
Including the schedule that took them through Nagoya's Vantelin Dome, Osaka's Kyocera Dome, and Fukuoka's PayPay Dome from September to October, this Japan tour is expected to conclude with a total of 10 performances and cumulative attendance of 520,000 fans.
This tour has garnered even more attention alongside the group's rising momentum. Their mini-album 'This & That', released on the 7th, simultaneously topped the Billboard Main Album Chart 'Billboard 200' on the 22nd for their ninth consecutive number-one position, earning them the title of the artist with the most number-one entries on this chart in the 21st century.
Riding on this upward momentum, the Tokyo concert was also broadcast live via the local streaming service Hulu.
Reactions from overseas fans were equally enthusiastic. On X (Twitter), one fan wrote, "The second day of the National Stadium concert that will go down in Stray Kids history," conveying the emotion of the moment. Another fan left a thank-you message, "Stay Arigatou," along with the song title. Some fans expressed their overwhelming feelings, saying, "Seeing Stray Kids having so much fun on stage today makes me happy too," or "This is just aura itself; all I can say is 'Hello'."
Stray Kids' official Japanese account also concluded their two-day journey by thanking fans after the concert ended: "We are grateful that even the venue, the National Stadium, was filled with the great love of STAY (their fandom name)." Stray Kids are scheduled to release their fourth Japanese full-length mini-album 'SUIATSU' on November 25th in Japan, so their upward momentum is expected to continue for some time.
