Stray Kids [INTRO "MAXIDENT"]

seungmin’s “we’re not perfect, that’s what make us skz” speech literally made me cry

Leeknow has given the highest compliment: the members are like his cats 😭

This is the most wholesome group ever... celebrities don't make me cry. I have a hard time believing things are genuine. But I believe them with all my heart. This made me tear up.

I’m kind of sad I became their fan kind of late, these boys are such a multi-talented pure and sweethearts. You feel like you want to protect them all.

Minho comparing the members to his cats was probably the cutest thing he has ever said

Every single member of stray kids is so necessary and special to make the group amazing, I’m so happy that they’re able to explode all their creativity, from producing to writing their own lyrics, can’t wait to listen the whole album! WE LOVE STRAY KIDS

They went DEEP in this album, showing us the best of them and the sub units. And the fact that they wrote and produced everything it's AMAZING. Congratulations, this feels like a great succes already!

19:07 seungmo always says deep stuff like that, and every time i tear up 😭

An incident of love, this is how i found Stray Kids 2 years ago. Seeing them being so open on thematics they have never been, seeing them talking with eyes of passion about their song, seing them happy to express through music and performances is what make me stay as a Stay. They are extraordinary different and this is why i love them so much.

Han's words made me cry... I love you too Jisung, I love yall sm!! I love you seungmin, I love you hyunjin, I love you felix, I love you jeongin, I love you bang chan, I love you changbin, I love you han, I love you lee know. I’ll always love stray kids, thank you for just existing ♡

Honestly I think Seungmin and Changbin's emotional intelligence is so glorious to see and, to think they probably understand way more than people in our everyday lives sometimes do. really I'm so amazed every time they start talking about something, it's like they've realized everything there is to realize.

I love how straykids talk about how much they love each other but Seungmin talking about his members and how he loves them so much that it makes him emotional……
It’s just JKNGJDDVK 😭😭
It just makes me feel so fvcking emotional 😭😢

Jisung with the glasses 😍 STAHP…Also, this was so heartwarming to watch! I teared up a little, even. ❤ you, SKZ!

leeknow: "i raise soondoongdori, i try to buy them the best food, the best sand, the best toys and i give my best. but my members make me feel that way too sometimes - they’re sometimes like my children and sometimes like my brothers" THIS BROKE ME. I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE

"They say eight imperfect members come together to form a perfect team but when the eight of us are together I don't think we are perfect. Of course we seek perfection but ." - Seungmin 19:31
Stray Kids are so genuinely real. They admit that they are not perfect and yet are more than enough and perfect for us Stays. Because by showing us their true selfs and admitting that imperfections are indeed the most normal thing in the world and that everyone has them, they give us so much comfort and love. It's what makes them not only one among many (Kpop) groups, but much more than that a Kpop group that gives us support, that we love and admire and where we can truly feel accepted and at home. 143! You Make Stray Kids Stay!

They are literally the most sincere people I know.
The bond between the members and stays is just so precious.
Stanning skz is really the best decision in my life.

3 hours to write a whole song? Han is a genius 😭❤️

23:21 watching this now makes me think that chan really lived half his life to pursue being an idol. And after years of sacrifices, watching peopled debut before him, waiting, finding the right people, I'm so thankful that he ended up being with Stray Kids. They were meant to meet each other, Bang Chan made Stray Kids happen.

When Felix say how vital it is to remember where they started 20:48 And sang “nae salmeun mitbadak, nangtteoreoji..” My heart😭 I’ve been listening to Hellavator on repeat and every time I listened, I feel so proud of how far they’ve come!

it's amazing how stray kids love stay. The work that stray kids did is incredible, with the production of songs, choreography, history or whatever. It's just amazing stray kids

There is nothing straykids can’t do. Literally best visuals, dancing skills, rapping skills, vocals and talent I am so excited for this comeback

When SKZ started talking about the members and how they interpreted love, I almost teared up. They all have a unique way of expressing their feelings and we don't hear them talk about something so serious very frequently, so listening to their answers really got to my heart

I think most of us stays wouldnt be here with out stray kids. In every single stays eyes we can always look up to you guys are hero’s and life savers. Stay will always love you no matter if you love us or not. You guys dont even know most of us but we feel just as close to you guys as you all are to the rest of stray kids, (hopefully that made sense) Stay loves to see new things happening with stray kids and we are always curious about how you do it and how you do it so well. Stay will never stop loving you guys.

정말 얘네는 하나하나가 찐이야. 진짜 대단한 아이돌그룹이다라고 느껴짐. 제왑은 복도 많지. 어떻게 이런 애들이 모였을까? 착하고 재능많고 매사에 열정적이고 진실하고 순수한 사람들. 그래서 응원하지 않을 수 없는 사람들이 스키즈임.

Even though i knew that they’re the ones who wrote,composed and even participated on their choreo i am still amazed everytime they talked about it..!!!! My multitalented Kings ..!!!

it's actually so interesting and inspiring to watch them working on this album and understand what stands behind every song! thank you for openly sharing so many things with us. we're so excited to hear Maxident already. Stays are so proud of you! 143

Special for Our leader and dance leader
Bangchan Lee Know you did always amazing
i hope you know that how awesome you’re
you guys leading the kids are incredibly amazing

whenever the kids talk about their music in depth like this and the stories behind it, I start to think “I hope that I can love them for a long time”. I genuinely think that I’ll forever be impressed with the work and thought they put into what they release!

When we have the intros, and they talk about their creative processes and the choreographies and the ideas about everything, all i can think about is how genius they are, how multi-talented they are...

Honestly, I've never seen a group as adorable and loving as STRAY KIDS. I'm from the 70s and 80s generation, I've enjoyed many groups, bands, singers, but in my 56th year I can enjoying skz is surreal

Seungmin’s words made me cry. Thinking of a future without Stray Kids is a future I try to not think about, and hearing Seungmin talk about it made me so emotional.

24:08 "I don't want my expressions of love to be light, so I don't say it often."
Idk why but when jeongin said this I thought of the mayfly (?) stage when Peniel said that Jeongin shouted "I love you guys!" after they finished.
He's so precious and boy, he rlly loves skz, doesn't he 🥺💞

During 27 minutes and 44 seconds. I felt so many emotions, i cried smiled and was very proud. They make me feel less alone! And I'm very grateful, they have a big impact on people in a good way. They helped me a lot so I would do nearly anything to repay their love and help to us Stays. I love how they communicate a lot with us and as they say communication is key! It's important and they have done it very well! Thank you all for inspiring me to become a better person, follow my dreams and pick up art again

Seungmin's words made me cry, he's so cute😭

All we agree that SKZ is a very special group in kpop and in all music?! I love you so much Skz 💗

10:04 hyunjin said his heart gravitates towards TASTE because he wrote it himself, the journalist of teen vogue praised producing skills and said more to come (on October 7th) and hinted that he wrote taste long ago, when hyunjin was asked about his gaol with bang chan of 2022 he wanted to use red light track to make a song even better than red light, and you did it boy!
HYUNJIN IS A HIT MAKER!

I love how this video shows the love of Straykids towards each other and towards STAY. I love their choice of words and everything about this video. They deserve the best ❤❤❤

20:56 I just love how Felix sings the first line of HELLEVATOR considering today's the 5th year since made their mark onto the world as SKZ!
Taking it all in while remembering how it all started and far they have come to be where they are right now and how much more they are yet to achieve.
I believe this comeback is about showing us a different side of SKZ,it is more of a love letter,showcasing their love in it's purest form,for us Stays and also each other as Stray kids and the love for their music also while adding their maturity side at it. Their love for each is the most beautiful and precious thing you'll ever see.🥺❤️🥺❤️
LETS PROTECT STRAY KIDS WITH ALL OUR HEARTS AND GIVE THEM THE WORLD AS THEY DESERVE.🌍❤️🔐

하 인트로 볼 때마다 느끼는 거지만.... 진짜 존재해줘서 고마워 스키즈 ㅠㅠ 짱키즈 영원하자 사랑해 💙💙💙💙

I remember using “143” to say “I love you”, so this is pretty cool.
The guys are so passionate about their work, and it shows. I like seeing them explain their thought processes like this. ❤

20:03 I’m literally tearing up over this words ,Lee know is so priceless

Arghhhhh right in the feels… I’ve never felt a more genuine group. Their love and affection for each other and the fandom and towards their work is beyond words

Again speechless. I have no words. How these 8 imperfect and perfect humble beautiful young men can bring out so much love and emotions from me is amazing. Just when I think they cant get more from me they do and continue to surprise me. This was the best intro I have ever watched in my entire life. The hard work and care they show for stays amazes me every time. I am not joking when I say I will love stray kids for infinity and beyond. Its not just about the music anymore it is about their unique colors and beautiful souls they are, the music is just the cherry on top.

That was so beautiful and touching! The end made me cry a little bit. They're amazing people. Thank you Stray Kids!

All of their depictions of love make sm sense. I love how they all describe it in different ways. Even without them saying it, you can tell the members truly love each other. I'm so glad they have each other and I hope that they continue their journey together forever

The last part of Felix made me tear up, you see his emotions so well. The selflessness to save your loved ones is definitely how I describe love 🤍

Coming back here cause maxident was their most wholesome, loving era and i miss it. Their dynamic is so healing ❤

Popular opinion : Everyone agrees that STRAY KIDS isn't only dancers and singers, They are actually MULTI-TALENTED

2-3 YEARS AGO CHAN? YEARS??
Lol but I genuinely love them all so much and it makes my heart full to see their expressions of love to each other and to Stay. It’s inspiring to see the work they put into building this community and to learn their different styles and expressions of love. They’ve become people I’ll never leave, they’ll always be in my heart. They’ve helped me through so many things and I will do my best to show them the same love and appreciation.
STRAY KIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD!!!

Their love for Stay is unconditional. Every INTRO hits hard. Stray Kids take care of each other like real family and gone through many things together

спасибо за то, что вы есть. спасибо за вашу любовь и поддержку. музыка Stray kids - то, что спасало меня и продолжает спасать. stay, skz - одна большая семья. я заплакала, пока смотрела видео. несмотря на то что у меня нет возможности попасть на концерт и увидеть skz вживую, сообщения в баббл, активность в соцсетях напоминают о вашей любви. вы и ваша музыка навсегда занимают место в моем сердце
사 랑 해 ♡

for me, Stray Kids are not just idols, they're something more ... they're give me light even in the darkest days. they're help me cope with all this stress. they're make me stay!! listening to their music makes me feel better. and their visual, vocal and dance are just unreal things!! they're so adorable and deserve more.
Stray Kids, you just have no idea how much we love you!! STAY will always support you!! STAY will STAY with you!! ❤❤

I love how seungmin is so insightful in this. Like he really cares abt the members and u can see that but he can also acknowledge the flaws, which isn't an easy thing to do. his mindset is so healthy love him for that

I know we’re all emotional but….HAN’S OUTFIT!! There’s a stylist out there looking for a raise!!💕

22:43 I was tearing up with Seungmin, 22:56 crying my eyes out with Changbin 🥺

They are masters of their craft! No doubt. Stray Kids are so fresh and direct. It's pure joy to witness them create. It fills my heart and soul to be a STAY.

"My heart gravitates towards TASTE because I wrote it myself”
In hyunjin’s dictionary “i” is mostly “us” and for him to say “i wrote it myself” makes me want to hear him talk more about the process can’t for teen vogue interview
“and I wrote it thinking of the image of us three, so I'm pulled towards it more. I actually wrote it with Red Lights in mind. The song after Red lights."
and signs are saying it’s gonna be a hit like red light, he’s really inspiring everything he puts his mind into he excels at,
- “legend among trainees” because of the immense hours he put into dance training and got the title of the best 4th male dancer by ARATA,
- his producing/writing journey began with “little star” and showed that he’s lyricist genius in “ice.cream”,
- lastly his passion for art he wanted to become an interior designer before becoming a trainee and he creates art pieces that is worth to be an art exhibition thats his dream, so proud of “king of passion” ❣️

Chan realizing what love actually is by the way he feels for the members..so wholesome❤

If I could tell Stray Kids anything it would be that they saved my life. When I lost myself, these 8 men were my guiding light. They helped me through the darkest nights, the nights I thought would never end. The nights when the tears would not stop no matter what I did. The nights I spent hyperventilating on the cold floor. They helped calm my soul, picked me up and made me believe in myself again. Hearing Seungmins voice, seeing Hyunjins beautiful art, big hugs from Chan, Felix song recommendations, Changbins food pics, Lee Knows humor, Hans "good morning I love you", or I.N. ootd and adorable smile that make me feel like everything is going to be okay. If you're not Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, or I.N. idgaf what you think!! I LOVE YOU STRAY KIDS!!

Hannie totally displays song writer energy talking about the backstory and bts of the songs Ahhh~ our ACE 🥰 I’m SO excited for this album I think it’ll be really good

I love how much they’ve grown, not only as artists and their popularity, but as human beings ! It’s amazing to know that with everything they do, no matter what it is, they put so much thought into it every single bit. Hearing what everything meant to each member and how they each dissected it to their own perspectives and meanings, really made realise that that’s one of the many reasons i stan SKZ, because of how passionate they are ✨ The way they talk about their love for STAYS and just STAYS in general is so amazing and i hope that they’ll ALWAYS know that we love every. single. member. with our entire beings ! 🤍🤍

Awwww Han saying that people say he doesn't sound serious is so sad. I always thought he was the opposite, it might not sound "serious" but he always speaks honestly and passionately. I always believed when he said he loved stay.

I'm so pleased to have received this type of content directly from the members and company upon the album's release. It gave me the opportunity to hear from the creative base before I otherwise would have begun to form my own interpretation of the album's songs in a vacuum. These self-produced offerings are really Stray Kids' message and gift to the listeners, so I think it's super important to be able to know their intentions. I go into my first listen of MAXIDENT that much more excited for what I'm going to hear of the current artistic state of Stray Kids.

チャンビンの「高さより距離、高さより遠く」がとても深くて、納得。
いつまでも上質な音楽を届けるための信念と愛を感じました。
スンミンの「不完全なままでもいい」の趣旨も深くて、完成された8人じゃない、そのアンバランスが逆に心地よさであり、全てだよ、とでもいうような、迷子のままで自分達を追求していきたいという、普遍的なものを見せてくれているようで、沼が止まらない❤️
はぁ…素晴らしい✨

Stray kids is not just an idol. They are my safe place, my family that always give me support, a friends that always make me laugh and a boyfriends that show me what is LOVE ❤️
Thank you Stray Kids for coming into my live. I will try to stay and be a stay with you guys until last step out❤️
I LOVE YOU ❤️

i normally don’t cry, but this made me cry. even though i’ve never met stray kids, even though i’ve never talked to them, i still feel loved. genuine, actual, palpable love from far away human beings that i admire more than anyone. SO EXCITED FOR THIS ALBUM, YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!!

I love hearing them talk about love and loving each other

The way lee know explains how he loves his members is sooooo cute..our lovely tsundere, lee know the cat butler 💖

Stray Kids can't be described as just a Kpop group. They have so much talent, they deserve the world.
STAN STRAY KIDS, STAN TALENT!!!

Listening to 3racha talk about how they create not only their music but the whole vibes and story of their new era is so fascinating. Future is big for our producers.
And so proud to Hyunjin, Lee Know, Felix, Seungmin and I.N for sharpening their skills in writing songs and being more confident with their own abilities. I Love them so much 🤍

tell me why did I cry when han said that he hopes we reply with i love you too when he says I love you and changbin saying he wants to be able to return the love we give him❣️ they know they're loved and I'm so glad that they know

I know we STAYs say we love you all the time, and we mean it! You all significantly impact each Stay with the little things you do, like simply posting a picture or doing a TikTok. We notice all the care and effort you put into music, mv, live streams, interviews, photos, etc. It's hard to explain how much love we have for Stray Kids, honestly. Personally, your impact on me was life-saving, I genuinely cannot put into words how much love I have for Stray Kids and Stay. I think that fact that you all aren't :perfect" is what draws us in because you show sides of yourselves that make you worth loving and relatable as well, but like the general conclusion is Stay will always be in your corner, loving you just as much as you love us!

han is so good with words. it flows almost like poetry when he was talking about how he was scared that his i love yous are deemed insincere towards stays. HAN YOU’VE MADE A MESS… in my heart i am tearing up bro

The most talented in all aspects in this generation of K-Pop, SKZ. Vocalist, visual, rapper, dancer; they can do it all

감동받아선지 고마워선지 이렇게 많은 사랑을 주고 있고 이렇게 많은 노력을 하고있다는걸 몰랐어서 미안해선지 모르겠는데 눈물 좔좔이네요 이 영상 ㅠㅠ 이제부터 그냥 누가 아이돌이라고 비웃더라도 제가 존경하는 사람은 스키즈 입니다 라고 말하고 다닐거임 진심으로ㅠㅠ

The way they really love each is so beautiful ❤

I am too attached to these people and the amount of emotions they convey with their words I could feel them.. the way I was smiling throughout the 27 minutes and the tears when Han said his love is not empty and the joy when Felix said he would jump along with us and the love where Hyunjin said his love and him are the same.... I could feel them.. thank you skz for connecting with stay with your music.. I realised today that your music is just what I need everyday...🥺

I love how genuine and honest Stray Kids feel, I've never seen anyone be as vulnerable and open with their fans as stray kids do and I appreciate that

Being a fresh graduate from college, the worst fear I have is to lose my passion, uniqueness and creativity under the mundane 9-5-5 work style. The second worst fear is to see my beloved Stray Kids losing their edginess under the pressure of mainstream aesthetics. But thanks to the 8 unique souls, it seems none of them would come true. Thanks for inspiring me to hold onto my dream. Love from Japan.

25:44 - I'm NOT CRYING I'M NOT CRYING - It's just felix cutting onions over here with his words.
Listening to them explain the meaning behind their songs, how their songs make them feel, how they hope they make others feel and expressing the LOVE they have for each other just make syou appreciate the music that much more.

Guys let's go let's make this comeback a record breaking comeback they literally deserves all the love in this world...

I cried so much while watching this. They put their heart and soul into their work for Stay. It's so touching to see how much they love Stay. I hope they know how much we love them!! ❤️
And to see how much they love each other is so amazing! There's no other group like Skz ❤️
I'm so excited for their comeback even more!! Thank you Stray Kids!! We are so proud of you! 🥰❤️

2:11 Case 143
2:46 Cool
6:04 Give me your TMI
7:06 SUPER BOARD
8:38 3RACHA
10:03 TASTE
11:20 Can't Stop
12:34 Circus (Korean ver.)
13:15 more on Case 143

Wow, that's really what made me cry very much.... I realized that this is the band I can trust 100 percent, they love the stay, their families, each other. I learn something from them every day, what they said in this teaser is so precious... Our precious stray kids, fighting!!!

Felix's dance is fascinating and catchy. I love them

The way they described the songs made me more excited to hear them especially case 143, also how they talk about their feelings for each other and for Stays melted my heart, i think we all agree that we feel the same for them, Stray Kids we'll always be by your side no matter what cause we love you so much, thank you for everything you've done

I only became a stay about two months ago, but I already feel this deep bond to them. They're very down to earth and genuine in the way they speak about their craft and in their ways of showing love to us. I used to be in another band's fandom a few years back and it always felt very one-sided, but that's not the case with Stray Kids. The love and appreciation is very mutual I feel.

STAYs truly are the luckiest fandom!!!

Stray kids and the most genuine form of love and sincerity I've ever seen and something so sweet and pure we love you straykids stay with Stay for a long time

These intros always make me tear up. You can genuinely see how much SKZ actually care about the fans and about each other. They are so full of love and I have truly never seen artists like them in my life. You can tell how much they love what they do and how much they enjoy making music and being on stage. I truly will never be able to explain in words how I feel about them, they make me so insanely happy. I swear, sometimes it feels like my heart is gonna burst from all the love that I have for them. I've never felt this way about any artist before, but there's just this spark within Stray Kids that just immediately makes you love them and makes you want to give them everything. They truly feel like home. 💕

Crying hours open.. They're the most relatable idols.. I can love skz for the rest of my life without getting bored.. When seungmin said that love also makes us anxious.. I felt that on personal level.. I get so anxious thinking about if I can't meet them ever? If I didn't make it..? They are amazing.. And when I say HAN JISUNG is the most relatable person in the world.. I mean it with all my heart.. I say I love skz a lot and people think i'm being silly but only I know.. Only we stay know how kuch sincere we are when we say that... We really mean it when we say straykids are our life!!

STAYであること、ほんとに誇らしい気持ち！

Changbin and Seungmin are both so well spoken its really a pleasure to listen to them and their opinions on stuff

24:14 I've never felt this close in my heart to SKZ members before. I understand their feelings towards this lovable kid on a spiritual level ㅠㅠ Innie I want to squish you, you wonderful little fox I love you ㅠㅠ

lee know’s voice really sounds like a child... like an innocent child 🥺

So happy to see so many OT8 STAYS than the solo Stans, and AKGAE fans, in the comment section.
Don't call yourself a STAY if you only love, support and appreciate only one member, just call yourself a SOLO STAN, because the word STAY is a fandom of Stray Kids that consists of 8 MEMBERS. A STAY supports and appreciates all 8 members not just only one member.

I seriously love these kids so much. Thank you for always thinking of us and working so hard. And to 한지성, we know your words are not empty. Every single time, I'll reply with 나도 사랑해!! Even if you guys can't hear us, we love and appreciate your sweet words so much. Really, thank you for lighting up my world, 스트레이 키즈. ♥️

This is one of my fave types of content from Stray Kids EVER. They never fail to amaze me with their talent, hard work and creativity. Add that to how genuine they are... God I love them

I love how they keep praising each other, like they know stray kids is all or nothing. Hearing their creative process just makes me appreciate their songs more, I can't wait to hear this album. None of their songs have ever disappointed me and this won't be any different. The confidence in their work and maturity in their personalities is desirable. They know they work hard to provide the best for STAY so it'll be hard for anyone to bring them down.

You can quite literally feel their love this video. They have and will continue to work so damn hard at what they love to do. Their music spews their hard work and it makes me want to cry from how freaking proud I am of them and their many deserved accomplishments. Omg- I will never have a single regret in getting to know, loving, and supporting these freaking boys. I don’t exaggerate when I say that they saved me.
