PETALING JAYA, July 9 — Fans of Stray Kids (STAYs) can rejoice as the JYP Entertainment artists have announced the first round of dates for their dominATE World Tour tour covering Asia and Australia, kicking off with four days in Seoul from August 24 through September 1.
The eight-member group consisting of Bang Chan, Han, Changbin, Felix, Hyunjin, Seungmin, I.N, and Lee Know will then travel to various cities throughout Asia and Australia.
Kuala Lumpur is noticeably missing from the list, so Malaysian STAYs will have to travel a little further to catch their favourite idols in Singapore, Bangkok, Jakarta or Manila or just keep their fingers crossed for a later announcement.
