BLACKPINK's 10th Anniversary Heritage Collection Features Traditional Korean Fans

BLACKPINK's 10th anniversary is being celebrated with a special 'Heritage Collection' developed in collaboration with MU:DS, the cultural product brand of the National Museum of Korea. This collection is generating significant interest for its innovative approach to merging K-pop's global appeal with the rich heritage of Korean traditional culture, moving beyond typical fan merchandise.

The collection, which includes a folding fan, draws inspiration from the 'Jeokui,' the highest ceremonial robe worn by empresses of the Joseon and Daehan Empires. Designs incorporate traditional motifs such as pheasant and plum blossom patterns, reinterpreted with BLACKPINK's signature black and pink colors. The folding fan specifically features a sophisticated pink-to-black gradient and a heart charm, available for 28,000 KRW, making it a practical yet meaningful item.

Local bloggers express enthusiasm for how this collection showcases BLACKPINK's role as cultural ambassadors, connecting their 10-year journey with the profound value of Korean cultural heritage. They highlight the collection's ability to offer both artistic pieces like the fan and practical lifestyle items, appealing to a broad audience beyond just dedicated fans.
