Stray Kids proves their global dominance with explosive popularity in France. According to recent data, they ranked No.1 among K-pop groups streamed in the country this year.

Top Spot on French Streaming Charts

Billboard France revealed the 2025 "Top 10 Most-Streamed K-pop Groups in France," based on data from the entertainment analytics platform Luminate. Stray Kids topped the list, followed by BTS at No.2 and BLACKPINK at No.3.

Stray Kids' streaming success reflects their growing fanbase across France. Last month, they held back-to-back sold-out concerts at Stade de France in Paris as part of their "DOMINATE" world tour, drawing a total of 120,000 fans. It marked the largest K-pop concert ever held in France, and the highest audience count for a Korean artist at the iconic stadium.

A Steady Rise in French Popularity

The group has been steadily building influence in the French market. In July 2023, they headlined Lollapalooza Paris, captivating 60,000 attendees. In January 2024, they performed at the "Pièces Jaunes" charity concert hosted by France's First Lady Brigitte Macron—making them the first K-pop boy group to join the lineup.

Their third full-length album 5-STAR ranked No.52 on France's 2023 Top 200 Albums chart, while their mini-album ROCK-STAR reached No.135. Both were recognized among the best-selling K-pop releases in France that year.

Upcoming Comeback with 'KARMA'

Stray Kids will make their return on August 22 with their 4th studio album KARMA, featuring the title track "CEREMONY."
