Bang Chan STRAY KIDS deserves to be called the best leader because he is truly attentive to the members. In fact, in a live broadcast, he once said that he can do anything for the members.
"I will do anything for Stray Kids, there is nothing I can't do for my members, even if I die," said Bang Chan.
These touching words do not stop there. As a leader, he also feels that he should always be behind the members who are like his younger siblings because Bang Chan is the oldest member in the group.

The controversy surrounding Bang Chan STRAY KIDS stems from a dance video of Childish Gambino's "This Is America" from the past. At the end of the video, Bang Chan imitated the Jim Crow pose, which is a symbol of the racial system that existed in the United States in the 19th century.
According to information from the Jim Crow Museum at Ferris State University, Jim Crow was a character created by white entertainer Thomas Dartmouth Rice. He danced and acted by imitating a slave.
When portraying this character, he wore blackface makeup, acted strangely, and spoke with exaggerated accents. Ultimately, Jim Crow came to represent racism against black people. It is understandable that Bang Chan's behavior in the video sparked disappointment among fans. Upon hearing about this controversy, he immediately apologized through Bubble and reflected on himself.
"STAY~ as a member of Stray Kids, the slogan 'Stray Kids Everywhere All Around The World' holds great meaning. Although I did not intend to offend, it means nothing at all because there are people out there who feel hurt by my decision," said Bang Chan.
"Once again, I apologize and ask for forgiveness from those who were offended. We, Stray Kids, do not support any form of racism," he emphasized his regret that he should have thought more deeply about every step he took.
