Stray Kids HYUNJIN Loses 80 Million Won Cartier Earring Onstage ― FELIX Finds It

Stray Kids’ HYUNJIN turned a near-disaster into a Christmas miracle when FELIX recovered the ultra-pricey earring he lost mid-performance.

On Dec. 25 at the 2025 SBS Music Awards at Inspire Arena on Yeongjongdo in Incheon, HYUNJIN hit the stage with “DO IT” and “CEREMONY.” The hiccup came after the finale: cameras caught him scanning the floor as he stepped offstage, clearly searching for something.

Soon, the other members joined the search. Moments later, FELIX fished the missing piece out of a gap in the stage and held it up, prompting HYUNJIN to pull him into a hug as the group cheered like they’d just struck gold. Photos from the preshow show HYUNJIN wearing both earrings, suggesting one flew off during the high-impact choreography.
The reclaimed piece? Cartier’s Panthère de Cartier earrings, with an official price tag of 80.5 million won. Since being named a Cartier ambassador in September, HYUNJIN has frequently showcased the brand’s jewelry at events and onstage.

Right after the show, HYUNJIN wrote on a fan platform, “If it weren’t for FELIX, I would’ve gone home in tears. The earring came off during the performance―I'm so thankful to him for finding it.” Fans chimed in with comments like “Honestly, understandable” and “The best Christmas gift.”
Stray Kids capped a blockbuster year with their fourth studio album, "KARMA," and "SKZ IT TAPE" track “DO IT,” extending their historic run to eight consecutive No. 1s on the Billboard 200. They now hold the third-most Billboard 200 No. 1s among groups worldwide and are the first group in the chart’s history to notch eight in a row.
