Global K-pop powerhouses Stray Kids have officially set the internet ablaze by securing a monumental double-victory on YouTube in a matter of hours.
Known for their high-octane energy, self-producing prowess, and incredibly loyal global fanbase (STAY), the group has managed to push two completely different music videos across major view milestones simultaneously.
The dual achievements highlight the enduring longevity of Stray Kids’ older discography and cement their undisputed title as leaders of the fourth generation of K-pop.
“MIROH” Charges Into the 200 Million Club
The first and most historic milestone belongs to Stray Kids’ iconic title track, “MIROH”.
Originally released on March 25, 2019, as the roaring anthem of their mini-album Clé 1 : MIROH, the music video officially crossed the 200 million views threshold on the afternoon of May 29.
Infused with intense choreography, animalistic building-block haka movements, and a gritty cyberpunk revolution concept, “MIROH” remains a beloved cornerstone of the group’s musical identity.
Crossing this line officially marks “MIROH” as Stray Kids’ ninth cumulative music video to achieve the 200 million view status, joining an elite club of hits like “God’s Menu”, “Back Door”, “Thunderous”, and “MANIAC”.
Representing a critical turning point in their career- as the track famously earned the group their very first music show win on Mnet’s M Countdown back in 2019- the video’s continuous surge in views over the years proves that its stadium-level energy is just as impactful today as it was at release.
“Easy” Cracks 100 Million as Stray Kids Dominates the Fourth-Gen Record
Refusing to let the momentum slow down, Stray Kids followed up their massive milestone less than twenty-four hours later.
On the morning of May 30, the music video for “Easy” officially skyrocketed past 100 million views.
“Easy” holds a incredibly special place in the hearts of fans; as the popular third track from their groundbreaking first full-length studio album GO生 (GO-LIVE), released on June 17, 2020, it was never an official title track.
Its elevation to the 100 million mark speaks volumes about the incredible streaming power of the STAY fandom, who routinely champion the group’s heavy-hitting B-side tracks.
With “Easy” entering the triple-digit million territory, Stray Kids has officially locked in their 21st cumulative music video to surpass 100 million views on YouTube.
This extensive list boasts 15 distinct Korean title tracks- including massive hits like “Christmas EveL”, “CASE 143”, “S-Class”, “LALALALA”, and their latest smash “Chk Chk Boom”- alongside their Japanese original tracks and fan-favorite sub-unit videos.
An official media representative from the industry celebrated this historic dual milestone by highlighting the group’s unparalleled structural dominance on global platforms, proudly stating,
“With this, Stray Kids maintained its title as the K-pop fourth-generation boy group with the most music videos exceeding 100 million views.”
To put their scaling success into perspective, this YouTube double-whammy coordinates perfectly with their physical sales achievements, as the group has officially crossed a mind-boggling cumulative shipment volume of 40 million copies across 28 albums in South Korea and Japan, proving that their physical and digital global dominance shows absolutely no signs of slowing down.
