Move over Labubu – Fugglers look to steal crown from Hong Kong-designed plush toy
Competition for plush toys is heating up, with British monster-like characters, Fugglers, emerging from the shadows following the recent runaway success of Labubu, a collectible doll created by a Hong Kong designer. Fugglers, which recently appeared on the popular Chinese social media platform RedNote, stretch the 'ugly-cute' moniker to the extremes. They are threatening to steal the limelight from Labubu, designed by Hong Kong-born Lung Ka-sing and manufactured by Beijing-based Pop Mart. Labubu plush toy monster elves are known for their distinct mischievous grins and what has been dubbed an 'ugly-cute' aesthetic. Fugglers, the brainchild of British artist Louise McGettrick and distributed by UK-based Addo Play, are a line of 'funny-ugly monsters' identifiable by their 'human-like teeth, vacant eyes and disturbing demeanour'. Developed in 2010 – five years before Labubu hit the market – Fuggler plushies enjoyed a surge in interest on social media platform TikTok last year but only emerged on RedNote recently, with one related hashtag garnering 3.1 million views. Although the figure pales in comparison with the around 2.5 billion views for Labubu on the same platform, it has not stopped users from debating whether Fugglers will seriously compete for the throne of collectible toys.

South Korean ‘alternative K-pop' collective Balming Tiger on Hong Kong and having fun
For 'alternative K-pop' collective Balming Tiger, 'having fun' is what matters most. That is why the group is returning to Hong Kong – its members fondly recall how the enthusiastic crowd pelted them with 'shoes and slippers' during their first performance in the city at the 2023 Clockenflap Music and Arts Festival. 'The energy that Hong Kong people brought to the festival was something else. They were hyped and going crazy,' says frontman and rapper Omega Sapien. 'Usually, we get that when we're in the US or Europe, not in Asia [where] it's calmer. I really loved the energy there. It was quite unforgettable.' Balming Tiger brought out a wild side of Hong Kong two years ago but has been loved worldwide since June 2018, when the group debuted the single 'I'm Sick'. Its energetic music video was nominated for best of the year at the 2019 Korean Hip-hop Awards and has garnered more than 4.7 million views on YouTube. The Seoul-based collective is known for a creativity that crosses musical genres. Their quirky visuals and choreography defy the immaculately polished image of the South Korean entertainment industry. Balming Tiger have collaborated with K-pop giants such as singer-songwriter IU and BTS' leader RM, as well as British rapper Little Simz.

How Hong Kong director Wai Ka-fai's first 3 films revealed his storytelling range
Hong Kong filmmaker Wai Ka-fai made his name when he co-founded Milkyway Image with Johnnie To Kei-fung and went about producing, writing, directing or co-directing innovative genre takes like The Odd One Dies, which made the company internationally famous in the late 1990s. For quite some time, Wai kept himself in the background, leaving the ebullient To as the face of the company. But his creative input was never in doubt. Here we look at Wai's first three films as director. 1. Peace Hotel (1995) Play Made before he joined forces with To, Wai's debut feature was an atmospheric action film produced by John Woo Yu-sum The unabashed 'Eastern Western' was Chow Yun-fat 's last Hong Kong film before he moved to Hollywood , and intriguingly, Chow is credited alongside Wai for Peace Hotel's story. Set in an unspecified time that references China's chaotic warlord era of the 1920s, it stars Chow as a man known only as 'The King Of Killers'. Ridden with guilt after committing a massacre, he founds a sanctuary for fleeing criminals called the Peace Hotel. If those in trouble can make it inside, their pursuers are honour-bound to leave them alone.
