K-pop (Korean: 케이팝; RR: keipap), short for Korean popular music, is a form of popular music originating in South Korea as part of South Korean culture. It includes styles and genres from around the world, such as pop, hip hop, R&B, rock, jazz, gospel, reggae, electronic dance, folk, country, disco, and classical on top of its traditional Korean music roots. The term "K-pop" became popular in the 2000s, especially in the international context. The Korean term for domestic pop music is gayo (Korean: 가요; Hanja: 歌謠), which is still widely used within South Korea. While "K-pop" can refer to all popular music or pop music from South Korea, it is colloquially often used in a narrower sense for any Korean music and artists associated with the entertainment and idol industry in the country, regardless of the genre.

Stray Kids - Oddinary (2022)

Oddinary is the sixth extended play and ninth overall recorded by South Korean boy band Stray Kids. It was released on March 18, 2022, through JYP Entertainment and Republic Records, seven months after the band's second studio album Noeasy (2021). The EP is Stray Kids' first release on Republic Records, which they signed in February 2022. According to the band, the EP is a blend of "odd" and "ordinary", and represents "all of us who have something odd about ourselves" and the concept "odd things will soon become ordinary".

Material on the EP was primarily written and produced by 3Racha, an in-house production team of Stray Kids and other members; other producers on Oddinary include Versachoi, DallasK, Trippy, Jun2, Nickko Young, and Millionboy, with whom most of the group has previously worked. It consists of seven tracks, of which "Maniac" serves as lead single, and includes various musical genres such as hip hop, trap, EDM, and rock. Upon its release, the EP received positive reviews from music critics.

Oddinary peaked at number one on the album charts in South Korea, Finland, Poland, and the United States; and entered the top 10 in Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, Hungary, Japan, Lithuania, Sweden, and Switzerland. It marked Stray Kids' first appearance on the US Billboard 200 and the UK Official Albums Chart, among others. The EP has sold over 1.7 million copies, becoming the group's second million-selling album after Noeasy, and was certified "million" by the Korea Music Content Association (KMCA). To promote Oddinary, Stray Kids embarked on their second concert tour, Maniac World Tour, which commenced in late April 2022.
