'Case Number 143':
Stray Kids encounter a major incident called 'love'.

On October 7, 2022, Stray Kids will release their new mini album 'MAXIDENT' and its title track 'CASE 143'.

Earlier this year, on March 18, with the release of their previous album 'ODDINARY', Stray Kids entered the U.S. Billboard main chart 'Billboard 200' at No. 1, marking the third record by a K-pop artist to achieve this. The title track 'MANIAC' surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify as of August 31, proving their heated global popularity. As the '4th generation leaders of K-pop', Stray Kids makes a glamorous comeback with their new album 'MAXIDENT' after about 7 months.

The new album name 'MAXIDENT' is a portmanteau of the words 'Max', 'Maximum' and 'Accident', 'Incident', signifying an 'unexpected major incident'. This album includes a total of 8 songs such as the title track 'CASE 143', which expresses universal emotions like love in a more 'MANIAC' way, 'CHILL', 'Give Me Your TMI', 'SUPER BOARD', '3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin, Han)', 'TASTE (Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix)', and 'I Think I Like You (Seungmin, I.N)', along with the Korean version of the Japanese mini-album title track 'CIRCUS'.

The new song 'CASE 143' is Stray Kids' first love song as a title track, showcasing a different charm. It cleverly expresses the confusion of experiencing unfamiliar emotions as an 'incident occurrence' and uses the code '143 (I LOVE YOU)' to represent love. The song's progression, flowing along a chromatic scale with synth lines, captures listeners' attention, and Stray Kids' unique intense energy delivers thrills. The in-group producing team 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin, Han), responsible for all of Stray Kids' title tracks from their debut song 'District 9' in March 2018 to 'MANIAC' in March 2022, took charge of the lyrics and composition, with Bang Chan also participating in the arrangement to highlight their musicality.

Led by 3RACHA, all members contributed to the new album's credits, embedding distinctive personality and authenticity. The album was completed with the touch of renowned domestic and international writers including VERSACHOI, Hong Ji Sang, and earattack, creating another well-made record.

With their unique music and performances, Stray Kids have captivated K-pop fans worldwide, recently completing their second world tour across 9 cities with 19 performances, reasserting their status as a 'must-see live performance group'. Powered by the passionate support of fans who sold out every show of the world tour, they held 'Stray Kids 2nd World Tour "MANIAC" Seoul Special (UNVEIL 11)' on September 17 and 18 at the KSPO DOME (Olympic Gymnastics Arena) in Songpa District, Seoul, showing gratitude towards their fervent fanbase. The concert at KSPO DOME, adding significance with its entry, recorded a sell-out for both performances, and the announcement of additional shows further highlighted Stray Kids' unstoppable momentum.

With the high-quality mini album 'MAXIDENT' and the title track 'CASE 143', they are expected to create another 'major event' in the K-pop music market.
