Seungmin of Stray Kids on his latest campaign with Burberry
We're currently in the throes of summer. Of tank tops, flip flops, colourful popsicles and music festivals all around—especially in Britain, now with the weather on their side. From Glastonbury and Leeds to BST Hyde Park and Isle of Wight, bands and artists have been congregating in a formidable lineup, all to perform live in front of throngs of festival goers. Celebrating the universal phenomenon is Burberry, with its latest campaign 'Burberry Festival'. 'Think of the campaign like a collage,' says chief creative officer, Daniel Lee. 'Candid moments capturing off-duty fans and headline acts in between gigs.' Shot against a set of sound systems by photographer Drew Vickers, the campaign features a cast from the intertwining worlds of music and fashion, including Liam Gallagher and his children, Alexa Chung, Cara Delevingne and South Korean star Seungmin. In this case, art imitates life for the Stray Kids member, who is all too familiar with playing at a music festival with his members. Below, he shares with Vogue Singapore his time shooting for the latest Burberry campaign and what he loves most about music festivals. How would you describe the vibe of the shoot? Everyone was so supportive and really seemed to enjoy and cheer on my energy, which brought me so much strength. I wanted to stay in London longer! Seungmin in 'Burberry Festival'. Courtesy of Burberry Describe your look for the campaign. The classic, vibrant, youthful, and clean Burberry vibe? I feel a bit shy saying it myself… What was the best moment of the day for you? When I took the mic and filmed a performance scene with an Oasis song playing, I really got into it, and I was super happy because everyone seemed to enjoy it! Seungmin behind the scenes of 'Burberry Festival'. Courtesy of Burberry What's the most memorable moment you've had while performing at a music festival? It would be the moment on stage at last year's festival. The memory of performing in front of countless fans with the sunset in the background still remains so clear to me. The sight of the audience's hands glowing in the sunset really tugged at my heart! Accompanied by the band's sound surrounding us, our music felt truly grand. Is there a song that you feel hits differently when performed at a festival? I love performing 'S-Class'. It may be because the song holds a sense of pride, but even when the song isn't in the language of the audience, they still sing along and relate with it, making it feel even more special! View this post on Instagram A post shared by BST Hyde Park (@bsthydepark) You've played some iconic festivals so far, including BST Hyde Park in London. What do you take away from those experiences? It's always so amazing and we are so grateful to see how much love people pour into our music and countless other things even from so far away. Even though we all speak different languages, it seems that our hearts have become similar as they are connected through music! How important are festivals in connecting fans from different parts of the world? Since it's not an opportunity that comes easily, I think the big stage of a music festival is a really important and rare chance for artists to connect with fans.

Stray Kids Members Dominate One Billboard Chart — While The Band Doesn't
Stray Kids members dominate Billboard's World Digital Song Sales chart with tracks from Mixtape: ... More Dominate, owning the top three spots as duos. In this image released on October 6, 2024, Changbin, Seungmin, I.N, Felix, HAN, Hyunjin, Lee Know and Bang Chan of Stray Kids arrive at the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Penske Media via Getty Images) Stray Kids is one of the most successful K-pop groups in the world, and while it often takes the full band to top charts, this week proves that the members can pull off something incredible on their own. The singers that make up the group are having a standout frame on Billboard's World Digital Song Sales chart, where they're not just placing well, they're almost completely taking over. Oddly, the band itself barely factors in. Stray Kids and its singers claim five spaces on the World Digital Song Sales chart. The tally only ranks the 10 bestselling 'world' tunes in the U.S., which means the K-pop act owns half the list. These tunes dominate the highest reaches of the roster, as tracks from the band's new project Mixtape: Dominate occupy the three highest spaces, and that turned out to be just the beginning for the K-pop favorites. Leading the charge is 'Escape,' which debuts at No. 1. The cut is credited to Bang Chan and Hyunjin, two members of Stray Kids. This frame, they own the bestselling world tune in the U.S., and plenty of their bandmates are right behind them. Lee Know and Seungmin launch 'Cinema' at No. 2, narrowly missing out on a first place start. Meanwhile, Changbin and I.N settle right behind them with 'Burning Trees,' which starts at No. 3. While the individual members are running the show this week, Stray Kids does show up once on the World Digital Song Sales chart. The group's track 'Giant' re-enters the ranking at No. 4. It's only managed two weeks on the tally so far, and during its debut frame, it peaked at No. 2. The only member of Stray Kids not represented on Mixtape: Dominate's wins on this tally still makes his presence felt on the list. Felix appears at No. 9 this frame thanks to 'Reawaker,' his collaborative track with Japanese singer Lisa. The tune once ruled the roster, and even though it's falling this frame — from No. 5 to No. 9 — it's holding on for a twelfth week. All of Stray Kids' new arrivals on the World Digital Song Sales chart come from Mixtape: Dominate. While the project is too short to qualify for any Billboard album charts, it's clearly still making an impact. The set itself may not be found on any tally, but the group members do find space on the list and score solo wins, which don't add to the boy band's overall discography, at least as far as the Billboard rankings are concerned.
