[Stray Kids : SKZ-TALKER] Ep.87

The Korean context

What happened

This SKZ-TALKER episode follows Stray Kids at TIMA 2026. Backstage, they return from the red carpet, practice Chinese phrases, and compare Hong Kong egg tarts with the sweeter versions they know from Korea.

More context

Why Koreans care

The Chinese practice is preparation for speaking directly to local fans: the members ask how to say things such as “I missed you” and work on Felix’s Chinese-character name, including the pronunciation of its final syllable.

In the Korean comments

One timestamped comment highlights an easy-to-miss comic juxtaposition: the eldest members are discussing boxing while Han heads off to handle other people’s refunds. In translation, it reads, “Why is Han going to get refunds in front of the eldest members talking about boxing so ridiculously funny?”

What the words mean

급발진 (geupbaljin, sudden unintended acceleration) literally describes a vehicle abruptly surging forward. In the timestamp comment, it is casual internet slang for someone suddenly launching into an intense or energetic outburst.
