Stray Kids members I.N and Seungmin just turned their new THIS and THAT teaser images into a playful visual flex, giving STAY the softest look at the comeback so far. Dropped July 14 KST, the shots spotlight the duo in bright, coffee-coded outfits.
For a comeback era built on a surreal trailer and a high pressure world tour, the mood shift is huge. These teasers push vocal line duo I.N and Seungmin, often nicknamed vocalracha, straight into the center of the storyline.
Inside Stray Kids I.N and Seungmin THIS and THAT Teasers
JYP Entertainment rolled out the latest THIS and THAT unit and individual photos through an official notice titled “Stray Kids ‘THIS and THAT’ UNIT TEASER IMAGES☕” and across the group’s social channels on July 14 KST. The drop completes the first wave of solo teasers after images for Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, and Felix.
The new Stray Kids I.N and Seungmin THIS and THAT teasers keep the coffee motif front and center, but lean into a polished classroom vibe. One outlet described the pair’s looks as showing a “dandy yet playful charm,” which fits the crisp styling and soft colors.
Music Mundial highlights that the two “pose with the whole class,” turning what could have been simple portraits into a mini school photo concept. For fans tracking each member’s role in the era, it feels like a deliberate moment to frame vocalracha as the approachable, everyday side of the album’s universe.
Playful Dandy Styling and Vocalracha’s Visual Flex
I.N’s shots go heavy on teal accents and tiny styling details. Fans on Reddit point out the safety pins in his hair, the slightly mussed bangs, and the sharp little pout in the final image, calling the overall vibe cute but just dangerous enough to match the comeback’s tension.
Seungmin, usually introduced first for his vocals, is in full fashion focus. The shorts and sock garter combination, paired with a neat shirt and an oversized coffee cup prop, has STAY replaying the photos, with several threads calling this their favorite concept set of the era so far.
The warmth of these teasers lands even harder next to the uneasy THIS and THAT trailer released July 8, where a mysterious truck leads into a world of baristas, dancers, and chefs who all share Stray Kids faces, and Seungmin quietly hands over an LP at the entrance. For fans who loved the pair’s emotional chemistry on Seungmin’s SONG by. episode covering “The Giving Tree,” seeing them anchor the softer side of this world feels especially satisfying.
THIS and THAT Timeline, Release Date, and What Comes Next
The I.N and Seungmin teasers land in the middle of a tightly packed rollout that started when JYP announced digital single Run It, new mini album THIS and THAT, and the Run It world tour together on June 22. Run It dropped June 24, topping iTunes Top Songs in 43 regions, including the United States, and hitting number one on YouTube’s global music video trending chart.
