The K-pop girl group NewJeans finally joined forces with LINE Friends, creating a buzz with their latest collaboration. This partnership isn’t just a fusion of music and creativity.

Each character in this collection has a distinct identity. Minji‘s character is blue and recognizable with her bold middle part and eyebrows, and Hanni‘s pink character sports her pigtails. Danielle‘s character rocks space buns and yellow clothes, Haerin‘s is green with cat-like vibes, and Hyein‘s is purple, recognizable through her small mouth and short bangs. Additionally, the NewJeans fandom, known as Bunnies, is symbolized by an adorable bunny character.
The collection offers a wide range of products that cater to different tastes. From phone griptoks designed with each character to small bunny keychains representing each member, the collaboration ensures a personal touch. Fans can also purchase collectible standing plushies that they can dress as they like, cute and squishy bunny head plushies, and various phone case designs, including Powerpuff Girls and the like. What’s more, those who purchase over $50 worth of goods will receive a reusable bag, adding to the excitement.

This LINE Friends collab is a must-have
This collaboration extends to three different types of plushies: characters wearing clothes, heads of the characters, and miniature versions. Smartphone covers and back holder grips are also part of the Powerpuff Girls-inspired set, enhancing the collection’s appeal.
Availability is key, and pre-orders begin on August 2 at midnight PDT. They are scheduled to run for only two days. The limited availability adds to the collection’s exclusivity, meaning fans will have to scramble to buy what they want before it all sells out. Pop-up stores in both Gangnam and Hongdae will also feature the collection, with individual times for each location. These pop-ups will be open from August 11 to 31 at the official LINE Friends stores, providing a unique shopping experience.
The NewJeans x LINE Friends collaboration is a celebration of creativity, fandom, and pop culture. With a diverse range of products inspired by the members of NewJeans and the Powerpuff Girls, this collection is a must-have for collectors and fans alike. It’s not just merchandise; it symbolizes a union of creativity and music that resonates with pop culture enthusiasts and the youth. – K-Pop News Writer
