K-pop boy band BTS’ Jin has been stirring excitement among fans for his upcoming event in Seoul, where the South Korean singer will hug 1,000 of them. It takes place on June 13, the day after his discharge from the military.
If your children are big fans, they may long to be there. But take comfort that his alter ego RJ from the BT21 character family is in Singapore now.
The fluffy alpaca is on an RJ The Foodie world tour, which milks his love for good food, and is also held in Hong Kong, Japan and the United States.
Until July 7, local fans can tuck into “RJ Recommended” dishes at UOL Malls’ United Square, Kinex and Velocity@Novena Square, and earn stamps to redeem porcelain RJ Foodie bowls.
In addition, they can receive BT21 premiums, such as insulated tumblers, with a minimum spending at the three malls.
There are workshops for fans to customise BT21-themed T-shirts or snap photos with a 4m-tall RJ inflatable. Go to the respective malls’ websites for details.
