Stray Kids have set their next run of releases in motion and tied it to a new world tour. The group announced RUN IT, due June 24, 2026, at 1 PM KST, along with THIS & THAT, scheduled for August 7.

The announcement gives fans a clear timeline for what comes next from the group, which is now being searched under Stray Kids World Tour 2026. It also marks the first major music release cycle since Do It, the second mixtape that arrived on November 21, 2025, through JYP Entertainment and Republic Records.

The teaser running 51 seconds leaned into a hard-edged visual mood. Stray Kids appear in black-and-white outfits across industrial interiors and desert landscapes, a look that feels bigger and darker than a routine comeback rollout. But the clip stops there. It does not spell out the scope of the new era, and it does not say which cities, dates, or even a final title will define the tour.

That restraint comes after a stretch of momentum that already turned Do It into a major commercial marker. The mixtape surpassed one million Spotify pre-saves before release, sold 1.49 million copies on its first day, and reached 2.21 million copies in its opening week. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, moved 295,000 album-equivalent units in its opening week, and made Stray Kids the first act in history to debut their first eight chart entries atop the U.S. albums chart.

The timing matters because the group is extending a successful era rather than starting from scratch. On June 6, Stray Kids became the first K-pop act ever to headline Governors Ball in New York, and the latest announcement keeps that profile rising with a fixed release calendar and a tour plan that is still being held back from view. For now, RUN IT is the next date on the board, followed by THIS & THAT on August 7, while the full Stray Kids World Tour 2026 remains unfilled in public detail.
