Chapter 10: The Making of the Music Videos

When it came time to shoot the music videos for 5-STAR, Stray Kids knew they had to go all out. They wanted the visuals to be as impactful as the music itself—something that would capture the energy, emotion, and essence of the album. Each music video was an extension of the songs, telling a story through imagery and performance that could stand alongside the music.

The production process was intense. Every detail was meticulously planned, from the choreography to the costumes to the set design. Stray Kids wanted each music video to have a unique visual identity, reflecting the themes of the song it accompanied. For the title track, the video was full of high-energy choreography, dramatic lighting, and striking imagery that mirrored the song's message of striving for greatness. For other tracks, the visuals took on a more introspective, cinematic tone, matching the emotional depth of the music.

The members spent long days on set, rehearsing dance routines, perfecting their expressions, and working with the creative team to bring their vision to life. There were moments of exhaustion, but there was also a sense of excitement in the air. They knew that what they were creating would be something special, something that would resonate with their fans on an even deeper level.

What made the music videos even more powerful was the sense of unity among the members. Stray Kids had always been a team, but during the filming of these videos, that bond was stronger than ever. They were all in this together, pushing each other to do their best and creating something that would showcase their growth as artists.
