Stray Kids Guide FINALLY!!!!!!!

I will for sure!! Thanks for letting me know!🙌🏾

To answer your question. It’s called stray kids survival show. You can watch it on strayksubs.com. Just search up stray kids survival show and find the first episode I feel like watching will show you will understand what they went through to get started as a group and the hardships that followed them. I enjoyed watching it a couple months ago so I definitely recommend it! It’s also great to watch if you’re new to the fandom and want to see how they came to be

Yeah I’ll to try to finish it later today and wow! That’s interesting!! That might be a topic I research and make an informational video on👀

Love this! Hope you get your airpods sorted out; headphone problems are up there with printer errors in the hierarchy of annoying-ass technical difficulties to be dealing with! Also, as you asked what happened to the ninth member of Stray Kids: his name is Kim Woojin, he was (and still is, in his new solo career) a talented vocalist, and he was older than Chan, making him the previous mathyung (eldest) of SKZ. He left the group late in 2019, but JYP gave no details for the departure beyond "personal reasons." We'll probably never know for sure exactly what went down, and so there's varying theories floating around, some of them (IMO) markedly less plausible than others. However, given what we do know, I think it's fair to say that the split was acrimonious. Woojin left abruptly right before SKZ's Levanter comeback, which had to be delayed to account for his absence. The line distributions for the songs had to be reassigned, the choreo redone, the photobooks reshot - basically, JYP lost a lot of time and money over it. That being so, and as the remaining members of SKZ clearly regard that period as a difficult and upsetting one - and as they are no longer in contact with Woojin - it's hard to imagine the split was amicable. Similarly, as rookie kpop contracts are not exactly easy to just get out of without cause, given the timing, it's been speculated that Woojin was kicked out for some unknown transgression, as opposed to having left by choice. However, as "transgressions" within kpop can range from genuinely heinous shit to "had an unsanctioned girlfriend/boyfriend," while this theory is plausible, it also tells us nothing about what might've gone down, and whether the ultimate catalyst for his leaving was some species of bad behaviour vs contextually unfortunate but ultimately benign, or at least understandable, interpersonal friction. What does seem clear is that the remaining members of SKZ view his departure with hurt and a sense of betrayal; significantly, they went back and re-recorded all their early songs to make new versions minus his vocals, with only songs on which he had writing credits being exempted. This is not industry standard, and is especially not the kind of thing you'd expect to see if they still had a good relationship with each other. So, yeah: ultimately, we don't know what happened, only that something did, and that it was most likely negative to some degree, but in a context where the potential cause of negativity ranges from "this bunch of very young people in a highly competitive, high-pressure industry had an emotionally fraught friend breakup that made continuing together impossible" to "someone did something Really Fucking Bad and JYP covered it up to protect the company." My best guess is that the truth lies somewhere in the middle, but that's just a personal opinion!
