The “biggest U.S. week” part matters just as much. It means more listeners, more buyers, and more fans coming in — not just loyal STAYs holding the line. The fandom is growing, and the numbers finally show it.
The Momentum Behind “This That”
From music show wins to this Billboard 200 debut, This That has become an era, not just a song. Watching Stray Kids celebrate each trophy with such genuine excitement never gets old. If you’ve followed them since the early survival-show days, this one’s for you.
