Stray Kids' 'This & That' debuts at No. 38 on Billboard Hot 100

The K-pop boy group Stray Kids' new single "This & That" made its debut at No. 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, marking their highest-ever position on the chart, according to the latest release on Tuesday. This achievement comes from the title track of their new EP with the same name. The band expressed that the song embodies "a bold attitude and confidence to pursue what we want without being bound by convention."

In addition to the single's success, the EP also debuted at the top spot on the Billboard 200, the main albums chart. This accomplishment makes Stray Kids the second most successful K-pop group in terms of Billboard 200 No. 1 albums, only behind The Beatles, who hold the record with 19 No. 1 albums. Stray Kids has now tied with The Rolling Stones in this category.

Outside of the Hot 100, the track "Dracula" by K-pop girl group BLACKPINK and Australian artist Tame Impala ranked No. 8, while K-pop girl group KATSEYE's "Animal" placed at No. 30 on the Hot 100 chart.
