Stray Kids Felix’s Latest Activity Sparks Massive Reactions

Stray Kids’ Felix is about to take on a completely new challenge that even his own fans didn’t see coming. The announcement has already set social media abuzz, with many curious to see how he’ll handle the role.

According to reports, Felix has been confirmed as a short-term special MC for the upcoming season of the web variety show Fridge Interview.

The popular show has previously been hosted by Dex, followed by TWICE’s Sana. During their time as hosts, both were praised for their chemistry with guests and ability to bring out their charm. Felix is expected to step in as the new season kicks off, marking his first time hosting a web variety show since his debut.

The move comes as Felix continues to expand his career beyond music. He was recently chosen as the global ambassador for  Hera — the brand’s first-ever male model — taking over a role previously held by BLACKPINK’s Jennie.

He also serves as a Louis Vuitton house ambassador and was tapped by café franchise Gong Cha as a model, an unusual choice for an idol. Known for his stage presence and charisma since debuting in 2018, he’s now branching out into variety, a space where he’s rarely been active before.

Industry insiders believe Felix’s unique charm and sharp instincts could make for an impressive debut as MC, even if it’s only for a few episodes.

Dex and Sana, in past seasons, not only highlighted the charms of the guests but also left a strong impression as MCs. They showed great chemistry and synergy with various guests, bringing out new sides to themselves.

Since this is Felix’s first time hosting a web variety show since debut, even for a short stint, we expect him to make a strong impact. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of wit and charm he brings to variety, given his exceptional stage command.

• “I’m so happy a popular male idol is the MC. When female celebrities or girl group members come on as guests, the people who always bash male MCs will probably stay quiet.”
