Stray Kids has captured the hearts of fans in the United States.

The group held encore performances of their 'Stray Kids 2nd World Tour "MANIAC"' on March 31 and April 2 at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, United States.

Fans gathered at the venue shared their excitement before the official start, singing along with Stray Kids' music, taking pictures, and dancing. The stadium was filled with the orange glow of STAY's (fandom name) light sticks, creating a breathtaking sight. As the concert time approached, a chilly spring breeze swept through, but the passionate atmosphere warmed up the venue, making fans forget the cold. Stella from California, who was enjoying the rhythm with friends, said, "I'm really looking forward to the 'TANG' stage from the mini-album 'ODDINARY,' which is my favorite choreography." Many fans also expressed their anticipation for stages such as "Compulsion (Bang Chan, Hyunjin)," "Charmer," and "Easy."

Fans who visited the stadium expressed their love for Stray Kids in various ways, from wearing costumes inspired by the members' symbolic animal characters to holding pickets with messages and cheers they wanted to convey. Chloe from Nevada said, "Stray Kids has a diverse range of music genres. The fact that they produce music that can't be heard anywhere else is the group's unique color, and the strong chemistry between the eight members is also an unmatched charming point."

Vivian from Los Angeles said, "I really like their music because it has a lot of meaning and unique sound. I've been enjoying Stray Kids' music since 2019, and it gave me great healing during the pandemic."

Sizavina from California shared, "They led me through difficult times. They make me feel like I can do something and give me the energy to walk towards my dreams." Gabi from Las Vegas said, "When I listen to their music, I feel connected. Stray Kids is my everything."

Stray Kids became the second K-pop boy group to hold a concert in a North American stadium. The encore performance was their first North American stadium concert and the finale of their second world tour. Initially, only one show was planned, but due to all seats selling out immediately upon ticket opening, an additional show on April 2 was added, proving their global presence.
