About this song
"CASE 143" is the lead single from Stray Kids' seventh mini-album, MAXIDENT, and it opens the record. The song's lyrics were written by the group's production team, 3RACHA. Its music video follows a mystery in which the members play cops hunting doppelgängers that turn into fluffy heart monsters.
What it's about
The song describes an overwhelming attraction to someone without being able to say so directly. Instead of saying "I love you," it uses the numeric code 143, where each number stands for the count of letters in I, love and you.
