(ANN/KOREA HERALD) – Stray Kids are set to take the stage at the American Music Awards (AMA) on October 6, marking a major milestone for the K-pop sensation. The AMAs, which are celebrating their 50th anniversary this year, are one of the top four major music award shows in the United States, alongside the Grammy Awards, Billboard Music Awards, and MTV Video Music Awards. The eight-member group will become the second K-pop act to perform at the AMAs, following BTS, who made their debut at the event in 2017.
Stray Kids’ performance comes after a highly successful year, with the group winning Top K-pop Album at the Billboard Music Awards and Best K-pop at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2023. In addition to their AMA appearance, Stray Kids recently launched their new world tour, “dominATE,” with a sold-out show in Seoul. This weekend, they will become the first K-pop group to perform at Singapore’s iconic National Stadium.
The tour will continue across Australia, Taiwan, Japan, the Philippines, Macau, Thailand, Indonesia, and Hong Kong, with plans to expand to South America, North America, and Europe in 2024..
