Candy Shop meets YouTuber JaeYeol ASMR: You won't believe the epic dessert challenge they took on!
Imagine your favorite K-pop idols teaming up with a YouTuber who has more subscribers than the population of some cities! That's exactly what happened when Candy Shop-yes, the girl group that's all over your feed, joined forces with JaeYeol ASMR, a creator boasting over 5 million followers.
This isn't just any collab; it's a full-blown dessert mukbang (eating show) that's got the internet talking.
On July 2nd, the "JaeYeol ASMR" channel dropped a video featuring Candy Shop's Soram, Sui, Sarang, and Julia. The girls didn't just eat; they crafted wild, colorful desserts using everything from ice cream and chocolate to fizzy drinks. Picture blue and pink creations that look straight out of a K-drama fantasy sequence basically, the stuff you wish you had during those late-night study sessions.
Viral Memes, Dessert Madness, and ASMR That'll Make You Drool
Here's where it gets extra spicy: the desserts weren't just for show. The group took on viral meme-inspired treats like the "Ttung Ttung Ttung Sahur" and "Tralalaero Tralalala" macarons, which are basically the South Korean internet's answer to the Dalgona coffee craze. The girls didn't just eat-they went full ASMR, making every crunch, slurp, and giggle sound like pure serotonin for your ears.

Soram and Julia, in particular, got hands-on, helping JaeYeol whip up the desserts before diving into the eating challenge. Their reactions? Totally relatable. Think: "OMG, what IS this flavor?!" and "This is so much better than exam snacks!" The energy was so infectious, it's no wonder the video is blowing up with MZ generation fans (that's Gen Z and Millennials, for the uninitiated).
More Mukbangs Coming-And Why Indian Fans Are Loving It
If you thought this was a one-off, think again.
After the dessert fest, Soram and Julia teased another round-this time, a "pink mukbang." So, yes, more sugar rushes and meme-worthy moments are on the way.
It's not hard to see why this collab is resonating with Indian youth. The whole vibe is like your favorite Bollywood celebs doing a food challenge with a top YouTuber-think Ranveer Singh and CarryMinati going wild over gulab jamun ASMR. The blend of pop culture, food, and internet humor is universal, and honestly, who doesn't love watching celebs let loose over dessert?
A Sweet Reflection-Why This Collab Hits Home
Watching Candy Shop and JaeYeol ASMR go all-in on dessert madness feels oddly familiar-like those late-night hostel parties where everyone chips in to make Maggi or tries weird food combos just for laughs. It's about the joy of sharing, the thrill of trying something new, and the pure fun of not taking yourself too seriously. Whether you're in Seoul or Surat, that's something we all get.
Sometimes, the best moments happen when you mix a little K-pop, a dash of YouTube, and a whole lot of dessert.

Goblin star Lee Dong Wook asks fans to ‘unfollow' him after hate comments flood messaging app: ‘ I'm at a point in my life where things…'
K-drama star Lee Dong Wook, usually the calm type, lost his cool on social media after getting hit with a barrage of hate comments. The Divorce Insurance star is one of the few celebs who actually interacts with fans in real time through Bubble, a messaging app that lets paid subscribers track every move and update. But Lee's recent messages on the platform left fans stunned. In a long, pointed note, he called out the ones who found his messages 'disturbing' and fired back: Why don't they just unsubscribe already? Also read: Lee Dong Wook and Lee Da Hee break marriage myth in Divorce Insurance streaming on Prime Video: 'Don't go all-in' Lee has been active on Bubble for a while now. Lately, K-pop idols like TVXQ, Super Junior, Girls' Generation, SHINee, EXO, and Red Velvet have been all over the platform, along with celebs like Hyeri and other K-drama stars. And while most fans use it to support and shower love on their artists, Lee revealed that he's actually been getting attacked by some subscribers. It went as far as people asking him not to send any messages at all. But instead of lashing out, Lee kept his cool and got curious. 'It's nice because there is no lag today. Hey, but I'm really curious about something, so could you please answer for me? It's not because I'm mad; I'm just genuinely curious,' he wrote (translated via Koreaboo). The Tale of the Nine Tailed star then added, 'Why do they tell me to stop sending messages because it disrupts them at work? I'm seriously curious about the psychological aspect of saying something like that.' Also read: Lee Dong-wook, the master of the supernatural: Revisiting Tale of the Nine Tailed, and the best scene in his career The actor further asked why these subscribers say such things instead of just removing him from the list, turning off their alerts, or simply deleting the app if they're so frustrated. 'I'm honestly not mad at all; I'm just genuinely curious as to why they're like that,' he continued, adding, 'I ignore them, but I see those messages every time I come on here. Why are they like that all the time??' Still, he made sure not to throw shade at the ones who do support him. 'From an economic perspective, I'm thankful that people pay to subscribe to me,' he said, adding that he's even thankful to the ones who leave bad comments—but what he really wants to understand is the psychology behind it. 'Why are they like that on a paid subscription service… I mean, I'm thankful for it.' Lee, in the end, said that whatever the point is, he's at a stage in life where he doesn't get hurt over such things. He added that he just wants to see the expression on those anti-fans' faces when they write such messages without any consideration. He signed off saying, 'Whether it's to seek attention, keep at it… it's a win for me. I guess this mystery will be left unsolved for eternity. Anyway, recommend something for dinner. I'm always the one recommending things for you guys.' On the work front, the Goblin star recently headlined Prime Video's The Divorce Insurance. He is currently starring in Disney+'s' Nice Guy alongside actor Lee Sung Kyung.

Indian quiet luxury in limelight: When design speaks louder than words
It has been a busy week for Namrata Karad , founder and creative director of Ahikoza by Brahm , after former journalist Lauren Sanchez was spotted carrying a black clutch from the brand ahead of her wedding to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos in Italy. The image quickly found its way into the global fashion spotlight—not just for the celebrity moment, but for the absence of any visible branding as well. 'For them to be carrying a brand without a logo? I humbly believe it says something about the brand,' Karad told ET. She's part of a growing group of Indian and Indian-origin designers gaining global acclaim for 'quiet luxury'—a fashion movement defined by unique and subtle designs with a focus on craftsmanship. Labels like 11.11/ eleven eleven, Dhruv Kapoor , and behno New York are leading this trend. Hollywood actor Brad Pitt, for instance, was seen wearing a shirt from 11.11/eleven eleven in a scene in his latest film, F1. Karad said her luxury handbags and accessories brand was born out of passion nine years ago, and not with the intention of celebrities endorsing it on red carpet. 'I saw a gap in the market, and I wanted to design handbags that would not have to announce themselves with a loud logo. Rather, be recognised by design.' All global brands have key features—a DNA. Think of Bottega Veneta that is known for its weave, or Judith Leiber famous for its crystal studded handbags. The thing that stands out for Ahikoza by Brahm handbags is the geometric patterns. Live Events Cover cuts 'This is our defined DNA. When people talk about the brand, they recognise it by design. That, to me, is true luxury,' Karad said. New Delhi headquartered 11.11/ eleven eleven—cofounded by Shani Himanshu and Mia Morikawa more than 15 years ago—follows a 'seed to stitch' philosophy. Moving away from mainstream manufacturing, the label produces small batches of 'slow-made clothing' in collaboration with groups of artisans located all across India. For instance, for the Kala cotton indigenous to Kachchh in Gujarat, it works with local weavers who specialise in hand spinning. 'The neighbouring villages also participate in the process. This leaves a much lower carbon footprint,' Himanshu said. 'The reason why many people don't know of us till now is because we have been quietly building this entire ecosystem in keeping with our design ethos,' he said. 'The larger vision is to make all our products compostable. We have not achieved this in all our products yet.' 11.11/eleven eleven only uses plant-based dyes and 100% natural colours. It also has a showroom in New York, and retails through 100 stores across India, the US, Europe and Japan. Hollywood actor Dev Patel visited its New Delhi store last month. Dhruv Kapoor, founder and creative director of his eponymous label, said the term quiet luxury emerged simply as a contrast to overt, all-over monogramming. 'The brand name recedes, allowing quality, craftsmanship, and silhouette to lead,' he said. 'True quiet luxury—where branding is nearly untraceable—tends to attract a more mature, discerning audience,' Kapoor said. His approach is to strike a balance with most pieces carrying a small, refined logo. A select few, like casual jumpers, sport bold logos and they 'sell out within days,' he said. Kapoor will showcase his collection at the Milan Fashion Week for the seventh time in September. Behno—which retails wallets, small leather goods, mini bags, totes and sling bags—has its design studio headquartered in the West Village of Manhattan in New York City, but it is very much rooted in the Indian subcontinent for production, according to its founder and creative director Shivam Punjya. 'Over the last year, we've expanded our presence through select retail partners and pop-ups in key global markets, and we've been fortunate to receive recognition from international press and tastemakers,' Punjya said. The brand will open its first store in India in Mumbai later this year, 'marking an important step in building a physical flagship presence for the brand,' he said. behno (translating to sisters in Hindi) claims to be pioneering 'a new standard' for manufacturing in the global garment trade, focusing on the way garment workers and artisans are viewed, employed, and treated. The brand's products are handmade in facilities implementing a set of six guiding principles focusing on health, artisan growth, family planning, women's rights, workplace satisfaction, and eco consciousness. In 2019, behno won Fashion Group International's Rising Star Award in accessories. Previous winners include Tory Burch, Michael Kors and Jason Wu. For Punjya, quiet luxury is about intention over excess—a design philosophy where there is a deep consideration for craftsmanship, materiality, and design integrity. 'It's luxury that you feel intimately for yourself…something that makes you feel special or even empowered,' he said. 'It's a luxury where those who know, know."
