Changbin said JYPE was initially against their idea for God's DDU-DU DDU-DU stage on KINGDOM

So basically, Stray Kids gave their ideas for the God's DDU-DU DDU-DU stage on KINGDOM, but JYPE was against what they wanted at first.

Bang Chan previously said that the Marvel/Deadpool concept was also his idea, but JYPE didn't accept until he pushed it until he convinced them.

Now Changbin said JYPE were also against their ideas related to the arragement of the cover. BUT, they didn't give up to do what they want to do and worked hard in a quality demo to show in the best way possible what they were thinking. And the company was so surprised and could finally understand what Stray Kids mean, so said they could see the group performing it perfectly on the stage. So It's a stage Changbin is really proud of, theu fought for it.

Stray Kids ended up not only being #1 on KINGDOM's 3rd Round Overall and judged by Expects, but It was also the only KINGDOM stage who went viral, it made international big celebrities notice them and they were on the news all around the world.

No one knows what is the best for Stray Kids career more than Stray Kids themselves.

Wow the only one who went viral!

Genuine question, did the Classy Savage of iKON and Lisa go viral?

It was a very successful stage for sure and It has a lot of views, but I wouldn't said It went viral, more like fandoms supporting. The daily views kind of died when the period of counting views for the programs criteria ended. God's D4 already won almost 7 million views after this Kingdom round, for example.

Oh yeah, I feel like SKZ stage was better.

I'm glad you like it

Just had this thought how much God's Menu is a surprising track on their discography.

The whole story behind this song being released is amazing.

Made out of an sudden inspiration by Changbin, sent basically in the last minutes to JYP, had Hyunjin convincing them to change the title track to God's Menu and it became one of their most popular songs.

Also on Kingdom, God's Menu was also mixed with Side Effects on a great performance.

God's Menu is their lucky charm!

You know what's funny?

God's Menu, their most viral song, was entirely Stray Kids' idea.

God's DU DU DU DU, their viral performance, was the same.

When JYPE lets Stray Kids do want they want to do in their career, the results will speak for themselves.

You, guys, are so right!

Also I just remembered they also had to fight to convince DIV 1 staff about the arragement between God's Menu and Side Effects, because initially, the company wanted them to arrange God's Menu and Hellevator. Bang Chan gave a whole class to Div 1 about production to make they understand that Hellevator wouldn't work.

It's always God's Menu that they need to prove It's value

Quote from cle19

Stray Kids is first and foremost the artistic expression of the members; the fact their creative choices have always worked out in the best possible way is proof.

The day people understand it, the world will collapse. Stray Kids don't lower their heads not even for their Company without fight first, let alone strangers on the internet who doesn't even work on entertainment industry and want to teach them about what they should release to "succeed".

Quote from xoxoshawol

These dudes are hella talented!

As much as some might not recognize, they play well with the weapons they have on their hands and they do the best for the group with them. Teamwork means a lot for Stray Kids.

I'm glad that Div 1 knows well about the music direction they want to take and supports them.

It will always surprise me how talented and creative they are.
