Stray Kids - "S-Class" | 2023 VMAs 

I am not Korean, but I would have been really proud if a singers who sings in their native language won the award best in this prestigious ceremony. Congratulations indeed, Stray Kids!

Stray kids never disappoint

Everyone: “omg who are they?! They were so good!!” Stays: just regular day in stayville

Hyunjin's ponytail saved thousands of lives

This is the most EPICALLY DIRTY remix ever!!! This is what happens when you stan self-produced kings!!!! Congrats on the win, Stray Kids!!!! Stays are SO PROUD!!!!

The fact that they were on tour and still gave such a performance 🤌🏽🤌🏽. Congratulations Stray Kids!

Main performance volume: 0.1 MTV outro volume: 999 Literally why.

Hyunjin's ponytail has its own fandom

This didn't just make me go 'WOAH STRAY KIDS', it made me go 'WOAH K-POP' and that's exactly what we want showcased at an american award show like this

I'm not even a stay but HELLO!?? This performance was magistral!! The vocals are so stable, the choreo is perfectly in sync. They SLAYEDDDDDD!!

How nice of SKZ to invite the Vma's to their concert xD

That dance break. 2:55 Saved tens of millions of billions of trillions of quadrillions of lives.

Obsessed with this performance, such a fresh change in K pop. Truly nobody’s doing it like Stray Kids!

Not a stay, I'm a moa, but I want to say congrats to Stray Kids for winning 'best kpop' award!

I've known of them for a week and I'm totally obsessed!

Omg hyunjin looks like anime with the ponytail and undercut

The fact they could have just done the regular recording of S-Class but instead created this brand new version and slayed the entire performance just goes to show why Stray Kids are the absolute best!

Truly one of the best groups of the 4th generation of kpop, they are always so hardworking and is nice to see that they are getting recognized worldwide!! STAN STRAY KIDS STAN TALENT

ate and left no crumbs as normal Hyunjin's man ponytail mad me choke on my water

Nearly 3 months later... this performance turned me into a stay after 10+ years without kpop (I was a shinee/big bang fan since 2009). Thanks skz, for getting me out of the most horrendous sadness I have ever experienced in my life, even at my age in my 30's.

Congratulations Our StrayKids for winning your 1st VMAs "Best K-Pop" Award.!! Well Deserved.!!

Literal tears in my eyes. Thank you so much VMAs for inviting Stray Kids this year🥹

sooo we‘re still not over this amazing performance or are we??

I'm laughing because somehow I became aware of this group and now I'm a fan. If you look at my playlists you'll see that I'm not into K-Pop or really any current pop music. I am into fashion though, and photos/videos of Felix and Hyunjin at the European fashion weeks intrigued me. Now I'm watching Stray Kids videos and I'm impressed. Still not really my kind of music but these guys are all very talented, hard-working, stylish, and gorgeous. The VMA performance was powerful, I especially love the segment starting at 1:09 with the aggressive running-man dancing, the graphics on the stage, and the camera work mimicking cell phone video. I can totally understand why this group has built up such a huge fan base.

I've been following Stray Kids for about 6 years, I can't believe we've come this far and won something like VMAs. I am very proud to be a STAY. Stray Kids, I'm really proud of you ❤

Hits so hard to see Stray Kids growing up so so much, being able to be on the VMAS and even winning an award. It is just mind blowing seeing how far they got. Album presales went from 30k to 6m? This is no joke yall. 9/12 is such a special day for both Stray Kids and Stays. Stray Kids deserve every single milestone they achieved. They are so so loved.

I'm not into kpop but god I WISH ALL MALE ARTISTS DRESSED LIKE THIS!

I swear this performance and their Le Gala Des Pièces Jaunes performance are two of the best I've seen from them after Kingdom!!! No matter how many times I come back to this, it never gets old!!

This is how you represent ur country and culture... they sang their self-written-produced song of their own genre(Mala Tang) in their own language...also showed korean language and elements...i love it. They live vocal,choreo,energy...everyone got hyped...amazing performance Stray Kids.

Congrats for winning Best K-Pop Award Stray Kids! The performance was incredible!

I will always be proud that they went to an American award show representing Kpop and performed a KOREAN SONG. Stray Kids have never changed themselves or their music for others. Despite all the hate they receive for 'noise' music, they still keep doing what they like since they absolutely love and are proud of their own art ❤

I still come back to watch this it is just too good

Stray Kids S-Class is now the second most viewed performance!! Keep hyping it Stay!!

Congratulations our Stray Kids!!! Hyunjin tearing up that stage in his lil' ponytail!! Everyone did so well!!!

Stray Kids made a statement here on an American music award show. The lyrics to S Class explain it too! *"Shining people, that's our intro, we're special yeah"*, *"being on stage, that itself is special already"* and *"we don't need an audience for the festival".* I love how they aren't trynna appease certain audiences who know nothing about Kpop. They rather let their music speak for itself. I love that about Stray Kids.

they're so talented.

I've been following Stray Kids for about 3 years, I can't believe we've come this far and won something like VMAs. I am very proud to be a STAY. Stray Kids, I'm really proud of you! We love you, Stray Kids!

The performance is amazing and the award is truly deserved. Stray Kids never disappoint!

I swear to god, I'll never get over this performance! It was the best performance stage we have had from Stray Kids yet! I am so proud of you uri Stray Kids!

Stray Kids always make their stages EXCELLENT!!

People saying "Omg how come they're amazing" forgot that this group got a 5 years experience background, absolutely top tier bops, solo tracks and solo raps as well as collabs. These guys are a whole package and have one of the widest and versatile discography of Kpop. In addition, they were intensively trained to dance, we're talking about the Marathon training of their label. Y'all can't match here, these guys are legends of a kind

What a performance. Stray kids never disappoint.

I gotta appreciate you guys. Just discovered you in august when my life was crumbling down...since then your music always hypes me up and lifts my mood instantly. Keep doing what you do! You truly inspire me to never give up and to do better in the future. Thats the best compliment I can give in honesty and you deserve it with all my heart. Please dont let yourselves be discouraged by negativity...every single one of you is valued, adored and loved by your fans. Never forget that for every hater out there, ten times as many fans support you! Keep smiling, laughing and rocking the world! Greetings from germany...you made it around the world! ❤

Well done to Stray Kids for bringing home the win for “Best Kpop.” So well deserved! Great job on the amazing performance too. They killed it!

The fact that they changed some of the arrangements and even changed some choreographies amazes me even more with their performance. They always work hard to make sure that they perform something new for their fans. Congratulations Stray Kids you deserve it!!

The importance of thumbnels Hyunjin captivates people

Watching it again in 2024 because it was so AMAZING 🔥

Billboard ranked S-class as 6th best performance of the night... totally deserved kings🎉

This year Stray Kids had many great achievements, when they were nominated for the Vmas award, performed on the Vmas stage and even more amazing was when they received the Best-Kpop award here. They totally deserve it because they worked so hard and STAY tried so hard to vote for them

The pause after Seungmin's "we're special" is so SOOOO ICONIC

They are all so so unbelievably great, and I have to say hyunjin is just PHENOMENAL in this dance break

The fact that they still put Korean elements into their performances at American awards is amazing. idc men, Korea should be proud of Stray Kids

Stray kids world domination!! Im so proud of them!

Every time I see this thumbnail Hyunjin I just click. Click for my happiness.

This is so unhealthy how much i came here everyday every single day just to watch this performance Skz are really something

i'm not a Stray Kids fan, but they came to kill... they really nailed it!

This is stray kids with power pack performance & high voltage energy. We stan a right group. Wherever they perform they make it as their concerts! Big congratulations Stray kids

Literally changed my way towards KPOP, this performance was crazy and fav out of all the vma performances, i keep coming back here so someone please help me by suggesting some songs by them i want to see more of them!! ALSO WHO IS THE HOT GUY 0:25?!

Months later and I really love the change up they did with S-Class!! Proud STAY.

Congratulation my Stray Kids, you deserve everything!

THEY OUTDO THEMSELVES EVERY TIME!!! So proud of my Stray Kids

I watch this video at least once a day. I love this remix 😊

Hyunjin’s vocals are so underrated

If you didn't know Stray Kids until the VMAs, give them a chance, they are amazing. I recommend the songs: Hall Of Fame, Item, Super Bowl, Social Path. And what can't be missed, listen to their 5 star album, all the songs are great 🫶🥰

They showed the crowd exactly why they deserve this award !! BIG CONGRATS STRAY KIDS !!! THEY NEVER DISAPPOINT!

this proof that not only THAT BOYBAND that should have international spotlight!! STRAY KIDZ is one of those boybands that deserves a lot of SPOTLIGHTS!!!

When i watch the show and they appear my jaw just dropped open by their talent something we don’t see in western groups and now I’m officially a fan.

I literally was crying and shaking so much yesterday😭😭 They have come so far, and I’m sure the vmas crowd was just stunned and amazed by their amazing performance. I’m sure they’ll grow even more and us, STAYS, will always be there to support our talented and amazing kids. You deserved it, you marvellous people 💕💕🥺✨

And wrote the song and this epic remix themselves! This is only 1 tiny portion of Stray Kids, their huge self produced discography is EVERYTHING. Like Channie said. For a lot of us their music came to us when we really needed it and helped us a lot or even for some of us saved our life. Their honesty is a huge, huge part of it. Not just how much they shine and win. Some of their darkest songs are their best.

I'm telling you those 8 Princes are not playing! Everytime i watch this performance i get goosebumps, i'm always in awe. I feel so lucky to be a STAY.♡♡

Omg, of course they rearranged the song for this! Aaaa it sound so good and they did so well, this was FIRE!! I am so proud of SKZ.

I really can't get over the stage, the outfits, the song arrangements, they really know how to hype a crowd and bring so much energy, also praises to the dancers too they did an amazing job. Stray Kids will always bring something different and you never know what to expect from their performances and there's one thing for sure: they never disappoint. Proud to be a Stay

Okay ive never listened to k-pop much and ive never listened to stray kids but this performance? Awesome.

Loved the thumbnail-Hyunjin-->>>it made me watch again

I discovered Stray Kids a few months ago through a friend and I‘m a Stay since then! This is the first VMAs performance I‘ve seen of them and it is not from this world. Congratulations on the win! They deserved it 100%!

Omg Hyunjin 😲 Ponytail and undercat, sleevless 😲 great center dancing!!! I'm done! Stray Kids congratulations ☺️

More than 5 stars, you are the whole constellation. Well done, Stray Kids

Hyunjin’s ponytail does something feral to me ❤

I was nervous when watch it, but skz are never disappointed!! Its miracle, amazing

HELLO???? THE VISUALS??? THE OUTFITS??? THE VOCALS AND RAPPING, THE CHEOROGRAPHY AND ENERGY???? THE BG MUSIC????? EVERYTHING????? IM LITERALLY SHOCKED. THIS IS SERIOUSLY AMAZING AND PROOF NO ONE CAN BEAT STRAY KIDS. STRAY KIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD!!!!!!!

Congratulations to the Best K-pop winner Stray Kids! They give another iconic performance to us!

Omg im SCREAMING they're so good 😂 Congrats for the win, I'm a proud STAY❤

Still can’t get over how GOOD this was

how do they manage to always have a different arrangement & choreo for every single performance in an award show 😭​😭​ They're such good performers, AWESOME JOB STRAY KIDS 🔥​🔥​🔥​

STRAY KIDS WORLD DOMINATION ♥ STRAY KIDS SHINE ON VMAs 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I'm really addicted to the break dance part IS INSANEE

it's been five months and people are still having that english vs korean debate in the comments. for the love of god, kpop itself isn't a "genre", it's literally any music sung in the korean language. there are plenty of other genres that are within the music such as pop, hip-hop, etc. stray kids are a KPOP GROUP. if they want to perform at the vmas with a KOREAN SONG, it's entirely their right to! nobody's saying there's an issue with singing in english, stays are just commending the boys for sticking to their native language despite how stigmatized kpop is in the western music industry. none of it was shade towards other groups. can't we just drop this and enjoy their incredible success both performance and awards? 2023 was HUGE for them!

Stray Kids, you guys are setting the standard for Kpop performances. Your stage presence is electrifying, and your passion for music shines through in every note and every dance step. Winning Best Kpop at the VMAs is a testament to your hard work and talent. Keep slaying, Stray Kids! We're here for it!
