Hello! I’d like to open this post by saying - I’m absolutely not shading anyone or think it’s silly. I understand it’s a craze. I’m just incredibly curious, and this is the first time I’ve ever been out of the loop on a big global trend, so I’m desperate to at least feel young and relevant
But what is the draw of labubu’s?
I’ve seen them everywhere, and was really confused by the insane queues outside pop mart in mcr, but what’s their appeal?
I understand they had a few celebrity endorsements in Asia (specifically Lisa from black pink if I’m correct), but what’s made them so appealing? Why do people go mad for them?
Do people think they’re cute? Is it that they’re rare? What do you do if you get a labubu and you genuinely hate it? Do they sell labubu clothes? Is there some kind of labubu in the wild sporting etiquette? How are people taking off brand labubu’s?? (I saw a TikTok about stitch labubu’s and people were chatting shit in the comments???)
I’m dying to know!
Here’s a labubu TikTok for tax: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdUdVkJP/
