Stray Kids adds 25 more dates to ongoing world tour

SEOUL, Nov. 10 (Yonhap) -- Boy group Stray Kids has added 25 concerts in regions including North America and Europe for its ongoing world tour.

The group announced on social media on Monday that it will perform on 25 additional nights, including April 24-25 in Yokohama, Japan, May 16 in Seattle, May 18 in Chicago, May 25 in Toronto, July 9 in Paris, July 13 in London and July 31 in Milan, Italy.

This will bring the total scale of the "Run It" tour to 46 performances across 31 regions worldwide.

The eight-piece group kicked off the tour with five sold-out shows at KSPO Dome in southern Seoul in July and August.

The band's latest album "This & That" topped the Billboard 200 upon its release in August, making it the group's ninth No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard's main albums chart. The album has remained on the chart for 12 consecutive weeks, underlining the group's sustained popularity in the United States.

Stray Kids has also captivated its international fans with its appearances at the Governors Ball Music Festival in New York, Rock in Rio in Brazil and its own "Stray City" music festival series across Latin America. The newly launched "Stray City" festival drew 270,000 fans across five shows in three Latin American cities, according to the group's agency, JYP Entertainment.
