Stray Kids stimulated the sensitivity of youth with their new content "SKZFLIX". They released a new mini album "Rak-STAR" and the title track "Rak" on November 10th and resumed their activities. JYP Entertainment, their agency, released the music drama "SKZFLIX" in a video titled "Stray Kids <STEPOUT2023>" on their official channel at 0:00 today (3rd), announcing their plans for the new year and receiving a great response. In this video, you can see the unique sensibilities of the eight members. Lino, who was lying down with a bruised face wearing a school uniform, is surprised by the sudden appearance of Felix and starts talking about his dream of becoming an actor. Sungmin and Han, who were talking about their dream of making a movie, find excitement in discovering Lino and Felix as actors for the movie they want to produce. The background is connected to the university film circle operated by Bang Chan, Changbin, Hyunjin, and I.N, who were recruiting additional members to participate in a short film festival, and they meet Lino and Felix as actors and Sungmin and Han as writer and director. Sungmin reveals the story of "SKZFLIX" and sparks interest, saying, "We came to meet old friends this time, but we have to return as the main characters, talking about a parallel world." The chemistry of the members who make the movie through trial and error fits like a dazzling moment of youth, giving a refreshing feeling. Finally, on the day of the screening, Lino, who was watching the movie, asks the members about the absence of Felix, who was the main character, but no one except Lino remembers Felix. He sets out on a journey to find Felix, who suddenly disappeared. As Lino approaches the supermarket where the two first met, a bruised Felix in a school uniform appears, reminiscent of the opening scene, and it is directed in a correlation (the first and last parts have the same structure), attracting attention. In this video, the title of the script is "Leave," which is a track from the new album "Rak-STAR," and it appears, raising expectations for its relevance. It was also revealed in the title of the "UNVEIL: TRACK" video for the recently released new song "Leave" that it is the "SKZFLIX Sequel," increasing the interest of STAY (the name of the fans) and enhancing immersion with a solid story this time as well. Stray Kids, who are approaching their comeback in a week, have been releasing various teaser contents one after another, building up the atmosphere for their comeback. Recently, they successfully held the "Stray Kids 5-STAR Dome Tour 2023," a large-scale dome tour with 10 shows in a total of 5 regions in Korea and Japan, at the Tokyo Dome, showcasing their presence as a hot star. Since their debut, they have directly participated in all their title tracks and have established themselves as a genre under the name "Stray Kids." They will release their new mini album "Rak-STAR" and the title track "Rak" at 2:00 PM on the 10th (0:00 Eastern Time) and meet fans in Korea and abroad.
