Stray Kids is well-known for bringing new colors to the South Korean music industry with their unique and easy-listening songs. Many of their title tracks have captured the attention of music listeners and set new records in the South Korean music industry.

Aside from some of their amazing title tracks, Stray Kids also has many B-side songs you shouldn't miss. Here are five Stray Kids b-side songs you should listen to while relaxing.

 1.    I Like It

“I Like It” is one of Stray Kids’ phenomenal songs among K-poppers. Stray Kids rarely release songs with a love theme, so fans are excited for this one. This song tells the story of two people who are trapped in a relationship that has no status. Stray Kids has succeeded in making many people relate to this song, in which someone only enjoys the sensation of falling in love without making clear the relationship between them. How about you? Have you been in a similar love situation? 

2.    Hall of Fame

“Hall of Fame” is the opening track on their album “5-Star,” which was released in 2023. Through this song, Stray Kids proves that with their color and uniqueness, they can achieve great achievements. Furthermore, Stray Kids includes Neil Armstrong's famous quote, 'That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.' This song indirectly encourages listeners to always be confident in themselves and achieve whatever they want.

3.    Youtiful

Still on the same album, "5-Star," Stray Kids again gives strength to their listeners with a very beautiful song. All the lyrics of this song are in English. Like one of their slogans, 'Stray Kids everywhere all around the world,' Stray Kids are trying to make the message of this song easier to convey to anyone who listens to it. Through this song, Stray Kids tries to convey that they are not alone in this world and that they're always amazing just the way they are. This song is something that anyone who is feeling burnt out or feels that they are 'not enough' truly wants to hear. Youtiful is a combination of the words 'you' and 'beautiful,' which can mean that you are beautiful.

4.    Mixtape: Time Out

Still on the album "5-Star," the song titled Mixtape: Time Out has a fresh vibe. With a summer theme, this song encourages listeners to have fun, forget the past, and always look forward. Fun fact: Stray Kids has music videos for several of their B-side songs, which include this one. The music video for Mixtape: Time Out was released on August 1, 2022, which coincided with the birthday of their fans, the STAYs. So the music video for 'Mixtape: Time Out' can be considered a birthday present for their STAYs.

5.    Secret Secret

Unlike the previous songs, this one has a sad vibe. The song “Secret Secret” tells the story of someone who has a secret they can't tell anyone and believes that no one can help them feel better. Stray Kids tries to reassure their listeners who feel alone that they are not alone. The stunning vocals of Stray Kids members in this song may leave listeners with mixed emotions.
