Stray Kids is breaking new records

Popular K-pop boy band Stray Kids has recently earned a new milestone in their career. The K-pop group have cemented their position as global record-breakers. They have been named the most-streamed K-pop group in France for 2025.

Billboard France released streaming rankings based on data from music analytics company Luminate, and Stray Kids surpassed heavyweights BTS and BLACKPINK to top the list of the ‘Top 10 Most Streamed K-pop Groups in 2025.’

The group has been shattering records in France, following their Dominant world tour last month. They held two sold-out concerts at Stade de France, attracting a combined total of 120,000 spectators over two days. This was the biggest K-pop concert ever in France and broke the record for the most attendance by a Korean artist at the venue.

Stray Kids have continued to build their following in France. In July 2023, they topped Lollapalooza Paris, playing to an audience of 60,000. Previously, in January 2024, they became the first K-pop boy group to perform at the Opération pièces jaunes (Operation Yellow Coin) event, with a performance that stole the show.

Their success in France musically is impressive as well. Their third studio album, 5-Star, reached 52nd position on the French Recording Industry Association Top 200 Albums of 2023, while their mini-album Rock-Star reached the 135th position. Both were the top-selling K-pop albums in France for that year.

Stray Kids will continue their success with a comeback slated for August 22, when they will release their fourth studio album, KARMA.
