Pre-Debut

In September 2017, JYP Entertainment officially communicated to the media the premiere of a reality show of the agency to choose the members of a next debut boy band. At the same time, the name of the reality show was revealed: "Stray Kids", a name that later would be that of the boy band.

What generated a lot of anticipation for many who ended up tuning in to the reality show was that JYP Entertainment revealed that trainees wouldn't cover other artists' tracks, but rather that they would sing their own songs and dance according to their own choreographies. With the teaser released on September 26, there was a lot of hype.
