Stray Kids (Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, I.N) continue to solidify their global fame with their achievements in the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) 2025 annual global charts.
According to the recent announcement on the IFPI’s official website, Stray Kids’ fourth full-length album ‘KARMA,’ released in August 2025, secured the 2nd position on the 2025 ‘Global Album Sales Chart.’ This marks the highest achievement among K-pop albums on the chart, demonstrating the group’s immense power.
With this, Stray Kids achieved chart entries for the fourth consecutive year, following ‘MAXIDENT’ and ‘ODDINARY’ in 2022, ‘★★★★★ (5-STAR)’ and ‘樂-STAR’ in 2023, and ‘ATE’ and SKZHOP HIPTAPE ‘合 (HOP)’ in 2024. They have also placed a total of seven works in the top 10 of the IFPI’s annual ‘Global Sales Chart’ during this period.
The IFPI ranks annual global charts based on physical album sales, digital music downloads, and streaming numbers worldwide each year. Stray Kids, consistently making their mark in various categories since 2022, achieved the highest ranking for a K-pop album on the 2025 chart with the ‘Global Album Sales Chart,’ and reached the top 10 as the only K-pop artist on both the ‘Global Artist Chart’ (2nd) and ‘Global Album Chart’ (6th), adding top-tier accomplishments to their career.
Stray Kids plan to reciprocate the great love of their fans and showcase the potential befitting a ‘Global Top Artist.’ They will hold their sixth official fan meeting, ‘Stray Kids 6TH FANMEETING ‘STAY in Our Little House’,’ on March 28th and 29th, and April 4th and 5th at the Inspire Arena in Incheon. They will also attend the ‘The Governors Ball Music Festival’ in New York in June and ‘Rock in Rio’ in Brazil in September as headliners.
