Stray Kids Achieve third Gold certification

Stray Kids has achieved their third Gold certification from the French music certification organization, SNEP (Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique), with their mini-album ATE.

According to SNEP's official website, ATE, released in July 2024, surpassed 50,000 units in sales and received the Gold certification on November 28 (local time). Founded in 1922, SNEP awards certifications based on album and single sales. With this milestone, Stray Kids adds ATE to their previous SNEP Gold-certified albums: the full-length album ★★★★★ (5-STAR) and mini-album 樂-STAR (Rockstar).

Stray Kids is also making headlines with their ongoing world tour, Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE>. As part of the tour's second phase, the group announced massive stadium performances across Latin America, North America, and Europe. 

Tickets for 10 solo concerts in cities like Santiago, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Lima, Mexico City, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, London, Madrid, and Paris sold out immediately. In response, additional performances have been confirmed: March 27 in Santiago, April 6 in São Paulo, July 19 in London, and July 27 in Paris. This cements Stray Kids' status as "global stadium artists."

With the first and second phases combined, Stray Kids will perform at 25 stadiums worldwide, holding 48 concerts across 32 cities. Their world tour showcases their dynamic global presence.

Additionally, on December 13 at 2 PM KST (midnight EST), Stray Kids will release a new type of project album, SKZHOP HIPTAPE: 合 (HOP), featuring the title track "Walkin On Water." This marks another exciting chapter in their musical journey.
