While other groups were in transition, Stray Kids spent 2025 cementing their status as the world’s premier performance act. Today, the release of their cinematic documentary, “Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience,” has sent shockwaves through the global film and music industries. The film, which documents their sold-out show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, has recorded an unprecedented 2.2 million admissions globally on its opening day. This isn’t just a concert film; it’s a masterclass in the “Stray Kids Frequency”—a high-octane, self-produced energy that resonates with a global Gen-Z audience.

The “dominATE” World Tour itself has been a record-breaking odyssey. Spanning 55 dates across 34 cities, the tour generated an estimated $450 million in revenue, making it one of the most profitable tours in history. From being the first K-pop act to headline Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to their explosive sets in Latin America, Stray Kids have proven that their “noise music” is actually a finely-tuned signal that speaks to millions.

In the film, Bang Chan and the members reflect on their journey from “Stray” kids to “Architects” of their own universe. They discuss the friction of staying independent in a manufactured industry and how they use their “Brain Coordinate” to stay aligned with their fans, STAY. The film’s success proves that the demand for authentic, member-produced content is at an all-time high. As they prepare for their next album cycle, Stray Kids are no longer just a K-pop group; they are a global touring powerhouse that operates on a scale previously reserved for legends like U2 or The Rolling Stones.
