DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS

Labubu is a plush toy brand created by Hong Kong designer Kasing Lung, initially introduced in 2015. The character is part of a series called "The Monsters," which is influenced by Nordic folklore and mythology that Lung enjoyed during his childhood. Labubu, along with other characters like Zimomo and Spooky, gained significant popularity after a collaboration with Pop Mart in 2019, leading to its widespread recognition. In 2024, the toy gained even more attention after Blackpink's Lisa was seen with it, sparking a trend across Southeast and East Asia.
Labubu toys are known for their playful yet mischievous design, featuring a round, furry body, wide eyes, pointed ears, and sharp teeth that create a mischievous smile. The toy's popularity has led to it being produced in various colors and sizes, including plush toys and vinyl figures. The partnership with Pop Mart has been a major success, with "The Monsters" line generating significant sales, amounting to 6.3 billion Chinese yuan ($870 million) in the first half of 2024. Labubu's rise in popularity has caused global "mania," with celebrities and fans flocking to acquire the toy.
