5 Stars for 5-STAR: Stray Kids’ Newest Album “5-STAR” Reaches 5.13 Million Pre-orders
Eight-member South Korean boy group Stray Kids has once again achieved another historic feat as they became the first K-Pop act to have five million stock pre-orders on their third full-length album, “★★★★★” (5-STAR). They successfully beat the record they also set two days ago.
According to Star News Korea, the album received a total of 5.13 million stock pre-orders on the last day of the pre-order period—a 200,000 stock increase compared to the earlier report. Prior to today’s announcement, it was reported that the album initially garnered 4.93 million stock pre-orders. Stray Kids achieved this milestone in their fifth year as a group.
The group is set to come back with “★★★★★” (5-STAR) on June 2nd. The full-length album contains 12 self-produced songs, including the title track “S-CLASS” (특), the Korean version of their Japan title track, “The Sound”, and the pre-released gift song, “Time Out” (originally titled “Mixtape: Time Out”).
