💜 Be a STAY the members would be proud of
Visiting the places Stray Kids enjoy is part of the fun; following them is not. Korean law and JYP both take privacy seriously.
Step by step
- Public places onlyVisit public spots like cafés, restaurants and venues, and leave members' private lives alone. At the JYP building, take your photo outside and move on.
- Don't follow or waitKorea's stalking law covers approaching or following someone, waiting at their home, workplace or other daily places, and posting their information online: up to 3 years in prison or a ₩30 million fine.
- Know JYP's stanceJYP has taken legal action over sasaeng behavior such as photographing private schedules, waiting at dorms and following members, and asks fans to send evidence to fan@jype.com.
- Respect filming rulesMany broadcasts ban photos and video; Music Bank removes and bans audience members who record in the studio. Check each event's notice.
- Use official tickets onlyKBS warns that illegal Music Bank ticket trades often target foreign fans, and traded tickets are refused at the door.

Before you go
- Don't buy or share members' private info (flights, addresses); passing it on is covered by the stalking law too.
- Emergency: 112 (police) or 119. Help in English: 1330.
