K-pop group Stray Kids discussed their firsts in a video for ELLE, including being recognized in public for the first time and their first day as a group. They just made a comeback with their album on June 2nd. ★★★★★ (5-star).
They talked about debuting as a band for the first time in 2017 after finalizing their lineup through JYP Entertainment and Mnet’s survival show. To finalize the members, previously eliminated trainees Felix and Lee Nu were brought back.
After realizing that they would all be making it through the final stretch, they called each a loved one. Seung-min reveals that he called his mother while Han hilariously says that he didn’t call anyone.
As for Bang-chan, Seung-min joked that he must have called Kangaroo since he was raised in Australia but the leader revealed that he actually called DAY6’s Young-K. He revealed that the fellow idol was like a mentor to him and that he had watched China grow up. Top
For Felix, he called his uncle to tell him that he was debuting and he in turn congratulated him and told him to keep working hard for his dream.
IN, the group’s youngest member, replays the call to his grandmother, recalling how she asked him which channel he should tune to.
