Highlights
Eric Nam welcomes Bang Chan and Felix from Stray Kids, expressing his gratitude to JYP Entertainment for their appearance. They introduce themselves to the viewers, signaling the start of a lively episode.
The conversation shifts to Stray Kids' new album, 'MAXIDENT'. Eric Nam and the members discuss the album's title and its meaning, which they explain relates to a 'max accident' of falling in love. They also touch upon the album's lead single, 'Case 143', which is their first love-themed title track.
The hosts and guests participate in a 'mindset check-in', answering three questions: how they are feeling, what emoji describes their mood, what three things they are grateful for, and what slogan they live by. Bang Chan expresses gratitude for being on the show and lives by the phrase 'just do it', while Felix is thankful for waking up and lives by his dad's advice to 'just enjoy'.
Eric Nam introduces a game called 'Do You Know Sam?', where Bang Chan and Felix have to eat meat wrapped in lettuce (sam) with different sauces while answering questions. They try various sauces, some of which are very unusual (like chocolate and fish sauce), leading to humorous reactions.
During the 'Do You Know Sam?' game, they recall their audition experiences. Bang Chan auditioned with freestyle dance, while Felix sang 'Just the Way You Are' by Bruno Mars. They also discuss the difficulties of being trainees, including seeing peers come and go, with Bang Chan sharing a personal story about a period of deep sadness when many trainees were cut.
The discussion moves to their big dreams, with Felix expressing a desire for Stray Kids to be the first group to perform on the moon. They also share what their life's theme song would be: Bang Chan chose Imagine Dragons' 'Amsterdam' for its motivational message, while Eric Nam chose John Legend's 'Ordinary People'.
A thought-provoking question is posed: would they choose the power to change the past or know the future? Bang Chan opts for knowing the future, believing the past, including regrets, shapes who they are. Felix humorously chooses to change the past to avoid trying a bad sauce again.
For dessert, they engage in ASMR, with Felix reading from 'Alice in Wonderland', showcasing his deep voice. Following this, they play the game 'Cleopatra', a vocal challenge where they continuously lower their voices, resulting in comedic attempts to go as low as possible.
As the show concludes, Bang Chan and Felix express their enjoyment, describing the experience as comfortable and fun. They offer words of encouragement to their fans (STAYs), emphasizing the importance of thinking before acting and thanking fans for being their comfort zone and safe haven. Eric Nam thanks them and promotes their album 'MAXIDENT'.
