Boy band Stray Kids will release a new digital single, titled "Star, Light (Stay)," to mark the eighth anniversary of its debut on Wednesday.

The track will drop at 1 p.m. to mark the day eight years ago when the group debuted. The release serves as a musical tribute to the group's fandom, also known as Stay, JYP Entertainment said in a statement.

Blending band sounds with guitar and piano melodies, the song delivers an emotional message about hope for the future, likened to the universe and stars, made possible through "togetherness."

Members Han and Seungmin took part in composing the track and penning its lyrics, while all eight members collaborated on designing the online cover image.

Stray Kids will hold its sixth official meet and greet event for fans at Inspire Arena in Incheon on Saturday and Sunday, and on April 4 and 5. All tickets for the shows have sold out, according to the agency.
