The so-called 'Princess Necklace' sold at Daiso for 1,000 won is out of stock.

Recently, there are items that are emerging as hot items among popular stars. She is none other than a baby toy sold at Daiso, a household goods store.

The 'Princess Necklace and Earring Set', sold for only 1,000 won, started collecting topics when actress Han So Hee posted a photo of her birthday party in November of last year. 

At that time, Han So Hee posted a picture of herself smiling while wearing a necklace and earrings with large red jewels on a silver background.

 Netizens who saw this also responded, "It looks like a luxury brand," but this product was known as a Daiso product and drew more attention.

Since then, several stars have revealed the appearance of wearing the 'Princess Necklace and Earring Set'.

In February, Kim Ha Neul posted a picture of herself wearing a princess necklace and earrings set at the event and birthday party sites prepared by the staff on her Instagram.

Girls' Generation's Taeyeon showed off her toy fashion on tvN's 'Amazing Saturday'. At that time, Taeyeon appeared wearing a toy princess bag, a plastic heart-shaped necklace set, and a crown.

In addition, singer Seolhyun, Umji, and actress Lee Yoo Bi took several selfies using the same toy and drew attention.

Is it because of this? Currently, on various social media and online communities, it is easy to see photos wearing these princess-style plastic accessories. 

There are over 500 posts with the hashtag 'Princess Set', and hashtags such as 'Daiso Princess Nori' and 'Daiso Princess' are also continuing to appear.

A clerk at Daiso told Edaily that the princess necklace and earring sets are out of stock, saying, "I can't even figure out the stock status of the head office and the expected date of wearing it."

Daiso cited the increase in party culture after the spread of COVID-19 as the reason for the outbreak, and said that sales of party decoration items such as actual garland products, cake toppers and birthday candy needed for party food preparation increased compared to the previous year.

The hit drama Weak Hero 2 is taking over both streaming charts and fans’ hearts—and now it’s bringing massive attention back to the original Naver webtoon Weak Hero.

According to Netflix's Tudum Top 10 update on April 30, Weak Hero 2 pulled in a huge 6.1 million views (based on total watch time divided by full runtime) just three days after its release. It grabbed the #1 spot on the Global TOP 10 Non-English TV Series chart.

That’s not all—right after it dropped, the drama soared to the top of Korea’s TOP 10 Series and even made the TOP 10 charts in 63 countries, including Brazil, France, Mexico, Belgium, Morocco, Greece, Indonesia, and more.

This follows the success of Weak Hero 1, which previously ranked #8 and stayed on the global chart for five weeks straight.

With all eyes on the new season, fans are now rushing to read the original webtoon, leading to a massive jump in popularity.

The webtoon, which first started in May 2018 and wrapped up in November 2023, is famous for its intense storytelling and emotional depth.

It tells the story of Yeon Si Eun, a quiet and seemingly weak student who turns into a top fighter at a violent school—giving fans a unique and gripping coming-of-age story.

After Weak Hero Class 2 aired, many viewers started reading or re-reading the webtoon from beginning to end. As a result, sales of the webtoon have shot up more than 20 times compared to its average monthly sales after completion.

The series has also been turned into printed books, a mobile game, and even emojis, and has been exported to 9 countries, including North America.

When the first season of the drama premiered on Wavve in 2022, it held 45% of the platform’s total viewing share, proving its wide appeal.

Fans are now hoping for a new sequel season of the webtoon, and the franchise is being praised as a perfect example of how a strong original story can keep growing through great adaptations.
