Ready for the collab of the summer? NewJeans and LINE FRIENDS have got something special up their sleeves. As they prepare for Lollapalooza, let’s see what the Kpop stars are preparing for their fans both on and offstage!
New merch
You might want to start clearing shelf space because NewJeans and LINE FRIENDS just unveiled their fresh Bunini merchandise collection. Showcased first on NewJeans’ official Instagram, fans were treated to a sneak peek of five adorable bunny plushies – a nod to the five fabulous members of NewJeans.
Taking a page from the pop culture playbook, LINE FRIENDS Store Instagram teased some Powerpuff Girls-inspired gems. Recall those iconic characters from the ‘New Jeans’ video? They’re back! This time as trendy smartphone covers and handy back holder grips. Don’t miss out on the anime-inspired NewJeans Get Up reusable bag, free for orders above fifty dollars.
Eager fans, mark your calendars! Starting August 2, the collection will be up for pre-orders until August 4. If online shopping isn’t your thing, NewJeans has pop-up stores waiting for you in Seoul’s Gangnam and Honghae districts. Available from August 11 to 31 at LINE FRIENDS stores, check them out for the real-life shopping experience!
Billboard Success
So, what fuels the magic behind NewJeans’ sensational performances? Watching other artists, notably the brilliant Billie Eilish. In fact, after their stellar Lollapalooza 2023 performance, the group confessed to being utterly inspired by Eilish.
Did you catch NewJeans at Lollapalooza on July 3? If not, you missed them playing the same day as the ‘Happier Than Ever’ icon. However, NewJeans is no stranger to the limelight. Their recent EP ‘Get Up’ clinched the top spot on the Billboard 200, even surpassing the star-studded Barbie soundtrack.
Taking the music video scene by storm, NewJeans released a visual feast for ‘New Jeans’, an opener for their ‘Get Up’ mini-album. With a nod to The Powerpuff Girls’ universe, the video begins with the group in a familiar animated house, only to be transformed into a series of art styles – from hand-drawn to pixel art.
What’s next
July 21 can’t come soon enough! ‘Get Up’ promises a slew of songs like ‘Super Shy’, ‘ETA’, and ‘Cool With You’. And in true NewJeans fashion, all tracks are set to have their dedicated music videos.
Before wrapping, let’s talk about NewJeans’ recent endeavors. Remember the ‘Bunnies Camp’ fan meeting on July 1 in Seoul? Fans got a live treat with a performance of ‘ETA’. Plus, NewJeans collaborated with musical powerhouses like Jon Batiste and Camilo for Coca-Cola’s Coke Studio, kickstarting its second season.
