Stray Kids will make a comeback in early June, according to a local media report on Monday.

JYP Entertainment confirmed the news following the report.

It will be about eight months since its last EP “Maxident,” which notched the top spot on Billboard 200. It was the band’s second EP to claim the No. 1 spot on the main albums chart after its previous EP “Oddinary,” and the eight-piece act became the second K-pop artist to top the chart more than once, after BTS.

The EP also sold more than 3 million units, the fourth album to achieve the feat in K-pop history.

Early this month, Stray Kids wrapped up its second international tour “Maniac” that brought it to 18 regions across the world for 42 concerts.

The album landed atop the iTunes top albums chart in 65 regions as did the song on its top songs chart in 52. In the UK, the album was No. 8 on UK’s Official album chart top 100, a record for a K-pop act at the time.

In the meantime, Jaehyun canceled all activities scheduled for this week as he showed symptoms of high fever and sore throat.
