Stray Kids rings in fan club STAY's birthday with vibrant new song, Party's Not Over

In a delightful tribute to their devoted fan club STAY, Stray Kids unveiled the vibrant new song Party's Not Over, marking the fan club's birthday on August 1. There's also a week-long celebration on way.

Stray Kids, the band

• The South Korean boy band Stray Kids was formed by JYP Entertainment through a 2017 reality show.

•  It comprises eight members: Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, and I.N.
• Stray Kids was originally a nine-member group, but Woojin left the band in October 2019 due to undisclosed personal reasons.

The fandom Stay

• On August 1, 2018, Stray Kids' YouTube channel unveiled the name of the group's fandom, STAY, through a video.

• In March 2019, an official fan club with the same name was launched, providing paid membership benefits. 
• To celebrate the first and second anniversaries of STAY in 2019 and 2020, special videos were released. 

• Since 2021, an annual STAYweek event has been held, offering various content to celebrate the fandom's birthday.

• The meaning of STAY: STAY has two meanings -- it symbolises a place for wanderers to find solace in and stay; while also representing the reason for Stray Kids' existence with the r in Stray denoting reason.

Fans play a vital role in Stray Kids' journey, serving as the driving force behind their presence and home, as reflected in the slogan:

"You make Stray Kids STAY."

And today marks the 5th birthday of the fan club.
