Did Stray Kids Renew Their Contract With JYP Entertainment?

Popular K-pop boy band Stray Kids has renewed their contract with JYP Entertainment. On July 18, 2024, the agency issued a statement confirming the update. Their contract is set to expire in 2025, but the eight members of the group decided a year ahead to continue their professional relationship with JYP.

JYP Entertainment formed Stray Kids (SKZ) with members Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Han, Hyunjin, Felix, Seungmin, and I.N. Originally, it consisted of nine members, but Kim Woo-Jin left the band in 2019. The K-pop group has come a long way since then and is slowly taking over the global market. This year, they made history and became the first K-pop band to attend the Met Gala 2024.
