Stray Kids’ Endorsements
Before officially having their debut in March, 2018, Stray Kids was chosen to be models for a Korean fashion brand, Jambangee Jeans, in February, 2018. Look at how fancy and dandy their styles in jeans. This became their first-ever endorsement, even before they debuted.
Aside from the fashion brand, they also had an endorsement for Minute Maid. They shot a commercial for Minute Maid in July, 2018.
Hyun-jin’s Bullying Scandal
Not long after Stray Kids made their official debut, one of the members, Hyun-jin, had a rumor come up, saying that he used to be a bully in school. The rumor was spread in an online community, where someone who posted in the forum was a schoolmate of Hyun-jin’s in middle school, and he or she admitted that he and his gang used to bully someone, acted harshly towards his girlfriend, and even had no guilt for fighting with a girl.
The rumor spread and was eventually heard by the Stray Kids members, including Hyun-jin, himself. At a fan sign in April, 2018, Hyun-jin was in tears while singing one of Stray Kids’ songs, called Grown Up. As he shed tears and faced the crowds, the rest of the Stray Kids members went to him and gave him a hug to comfort him.
There’s never been an official statement about whether the rumor is true or not. Seeing how sad Hyun-jin seemed, as the rumor about him spread, we could say that it might not be true. There isn’t enough evidence that’s strong enough for us to conclude whether the rumor was true or not.

Lee Know, the rascal boy, shared a selfie of him with Hyun-jin. A rare post from Lee Know, by the way. Usually, he didn’t post that much and he seemed to have forgotten the password (a joke made by Stray Kids fans.)

Stray Kids’ Latest News
Stray Kids has four members that just turned into adults starting this year. The 2000 lines, Hyun-jin, Han, Felix, and Seung-min are all turning 20 by the Korean age standards this year. In an interview, three of them, minus Felix, revealed things they want to do as an adult.
Hyun-jin thinks that things might not be really changing as he becomes an adult, but he said that he wants to travel. He also promises to become more mature and more attentive with his work.
Han said that he wants to watch late night movies with the 2000 lines, but actually, there’s nothing particular he wants to do as an adult, he just wants to look forward to himself as an adult.
Seung-min’s wish was quite unique. He wants to create a cell phone small payments, by himself, since he no longer needs his parent’s permission to create one as an adult, he was so happy for that.
With the three have become adults, Stray Kids now has eight members that have already turned 20 in Korean age, and it’s legal for them to drink, but Chan said that he made a promise not to drink for a year after Stray Kids had their debut.
Not only have they kept their promise, but the hardworking boys from JYP Entertainment also succeed in winning a lot of awards as rookies. It hadn’t been a year since they debuted, but they already received five awards in 2018. The boys are so talented and can look forward to a promising future.
