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

Stray Kids new single "This & That" made its debut at No. 38 on the Billboard Hot 100, according to the latest chart released on Tuesday (U.S. time). This marks the group's highest-ever position on the chart, as it is the title track of their new EP of the same name. The song's lyrics express a bold attitude and confidence to pursue one's desires without being constrained by societal norms, as stated by the band.

The EP also achieved an impressive feat by debuting at the top of the Billboard 200, the main albums chart, making it Stray Kids' ninth No. 1 album. This accomplishment has placed the group second in terms of Billboard 200 No. 1 albums among group acts, trailing only behind The Beatles, who have 19, and tying with The Rolling Stones.

On the Hot 100 chart, the collaboration "Dracula" between BLACKPINK's Jennie and Australian act Tame Impala ranked No. 8, while K-pop girl group Katseye's "Animal" came in at No. 30.
