Stray Kids’ leader Bang Chan is set to release his new single, “Roman Empire,” a track that elevates his partnership with luxury fashion house Fendi to new heights. Filmed at Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana in Rome—Fendi’s historic headquarters—the music video traces Chan’s artistic rise from his early beginnings to his status as a global icon, with every look styled by the Italian maison.

Written, composed, and produced by Chan himself, the song transforms Roman heritage into a symbol of eternal love while weaving in references to Fendi’s iconic designs, including the Peekaboo bag and FF logo. Lines such as “Ciao bella, you shine brighter than the stars” blend emotional vocals with R&B and Miami Bass rhythms, appealing to both K-pop fans and fashion enthusiasts.

The official release will take place on November 3 via Fendi’s website and social channels, accompanied by an exclusive premiere on the giant screen at K-pop Square (COEX, Seoul) and a private event at Palazzo Fendi, where Chan will perform live.
Bang Chan’s collaboration with Fendi, which began with his Milan Fashion Week appearances and his appointment as global ambassador earlier this year, has strengthened the brand’s resonance among Gen Z audiences, driving web traffic, online conversation, and search interest.
Beyond fashion, “Roman Empire” showcases how pop culture can redefine luxury, with Bang Chan and Fendi bridging Rome, Seoul, and the rest of the world in a modern musical empire.
