Ate is the ninth Korean-language extended play by South Korean boy band Stray Kids. It was released on July 19, 2024, through JYP Entertainment and Republic Records, eight months after its predecessor Rock-Star. Described as "definitely" something they have not done, the in-house production team 3Racha worked on the EP with collaborators including Versachoi, DallasK, Restart, Chae Gang-hae, and Space Primates. "Chk Chk Boom" was promoted as Ate's lead single, accompanied by a music video co-starring actors Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. In support of Ate, Stray Kids appeared on several television and web shows and embarked on their third worldwide concert tour Dominate, starting in August 2024. Commercially, the EP peaked at number one in South Korea, as well as Austria, Belgium, France, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, and the United States. It has sold 3 million copies, and, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, became the tenth best-selling album globally in 2024. Ate was certified double-million by the Korea Music Copyright Association and golds by the Recording Industry Association of America and the Syndicat national de l'édition phonographique.
