I-DLE's MINNIE To Make Special Appearance In KL This July
Although she has admitted she's not the best at replying to messages, I-DLE (아이들) member MINNIE (민니/มินนี่) still made sure to answer fans' calls for her to visit. The 'Queen Card' singer has now been confirmed to make a special appearance in Kuala Lumpur next month! Following the success of the recent BRICE Truffle launch event featuring 4 members of TREASURE, ecoBrown teased fans with the promise of another K-pop idol visiting Malaysia for an upcoming event. From the silhouette photo posted online, many were quick to correctly guess that the mystery idol was none other than MINNIE of I-DLE. Yesterday (Thursday, 5th June), ecoBrown officially announced that MINNIE will be making a special appearance in Kuala Lumpur soon. Although further details have yet to be revealed, it's reasonable to assume that the 'BRICE with MINNIE' event will follow a similar format to the previous one with TREASURE, where fans had the opportunity to meet and take photos with the artists. 'Something very special is in the works for our fans and customers 💫. We will be rewarding fans with unforgettable moments with the idol, up close and personal 💕,' the brand captioned the post on Instagram. Unlike the previous event, the upcoming appearance by the I-DLE member will take place over the weekend, on Saturday, 12th July 2025. The time and venue are expected to be announced at a later date. That's not all—MINNIE is also set to make an additional appearance for another brand, Nuuna Malaysia. This event is expected to be a more intimate fan meet, similar in style to TREASURE's recent one in KL. According to the promotional poster, the session will also take place on the same day at 5pm, with the venue yet to be revealed. Are you excited to see the idol live in person? While we wait for more information, how about enjoying her single 'Blind Eyes Red'? Sources: Instagram (1)(2) What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0

TREASURE Fans Upset Over Alleged Mistreatment By Group's Recent KL Event Organiser
Last Friday (30th May), fans were over the moon as TREASURE members Park Jeongwoo (박정우), Doyoung (도영), Choi Hyunsuk (최현석), and Haruto (하루토/ハルト) made a special appearance at Sunway Pyramid for ecoBrown's BRICE with TREASURE event. Some lucky fans even managed to greet the idols at KLIA upon their arrival, on the same day EXO's Suho landed in Malaysia. Although the event itself appeared to be a success, things seemingly didn't go as smoothly when it came to managing the brand's contest winners, who were meant to meet the idols on stage. Here's what happened: On Wednesday (4th June), a fan took to Twitter to share their experience as one of the winners of ecoBrown's contest to meet TREASURE during the brand's recent BRICE Malaysia with TREASURE event. The user detailed the agreement they were required to sign and expressed frustration over several rules that, in their view, did not make sense. According to the screenshots of the guidelines shared, the organisers requested that fans refrain from taking photos or videos throughout the event, despite it being held in a public space. The user claimed that the brand had initially posted the same guidelines on social media, but later changed the caption to specify that the rule applied only to contest winners. This led to confusion, as the winners were positioned closer to the boy group and understandably had more opportunities to capture content. As if that weren't enough, the winners were reportedly not provided with chairs while waiting for the group photo session with the idols onstage. This detail can be verified, as members of the media, including Hype Malaysia, were seen standing beside the winners in the designated waiting zone. Another fan also shared their conversation with ecoBrown on Instagram, in which the brand explained that they had removed criticisms and complaints from their social media to avoid the risk of being blacklisted by K-artists for future events. The company further clarified that they were required to strictly enforce the rules and agreements set by TREASURE's management in order to ensure the artists' safety. The same day that the IG conversation circulated, BRICE Malaysia issued a statement to reiterate the explanation they had given to the user on the social media platform. However, the brand has yet to address the complaints about the day of the event itself and the alleged mistreatment towards the winners. Let's hope the next event featuring a K-pop idol will be a lot better.

Now that's a snack twist we didn't see coming… Once reserved for boujee, fine-dining plates and those fancy chaebols' dinner tables you see in your favourite K-dramas, truffles have officially gone mainstream! This earthy, umami-packed fungi is crashing your everyday snacking sesh—and yep, it's happening right here in Malaysia. Say hello to ecoBrown's new Brice Truffle Rice Puffs , the freshest flavour hitting our local snack scene! These crunchy bites are made with a nutritious blend of wholegrain brown, red, and black rice. They're baked (not fried, so your gym trainer won't freak out), high in fibre, and loaded with vitamins E, B3, and B6. They're available in 40g and 100g packs, and are the perfect mix of fancy and crunchy goodness, and, dare we say, healthy too. Vynce Lim, Head of Marketing at SW Food, says that this is Brice's third flavour, after winning Malaysians over with Spicy Cheese and Seaweed rice puffs. The goal? To get Malaysians to 'snack the smart way.' Truffle not only offers a delicious snack but is also made from premium quality rice. It satisfies those who love light snacking while maintaining a healthy body. We are extremely excited about this launch, especially with the special appearance of TREASURE, and to give our loyal customers an unforgettable exclusive experience. SW Food Head of Marketing Vynce Lim. And honestly, if smart snacks taste like truffles, we're all in! TREASURE Brings the Hype to Sunway Pyramid Of course, Brice didn't just quietly launch this truffle-icious new flavour. Nope! They went big—K-pop big! Credit: Brice/ecoBrown's Four members of the popular K-pop boy band, TREASURE—CHOI HYUN SUK, DOYOUNG, HARUTO, and PARK JEONG WOO—showed up at Sunway Pyramid's Orange Concourse on Friday to help introduce the new snack to Malaysians and their adoring fans. To no one's surprise, fans had been camping out since 5 am, clutching handmade signs, chanting 'Saya sayang awak!' and screaming every time the boys even looked their way. Four whole floors of the mall were packed to the brim with die-hard TEUMEs ( that's TREASURE fans for all you casuals out there ), eager to show their love for their music idols. The guys greeted the crowd with sweet messages like 'Apa khabar!' , 'Gempak doh!' , and even joked that 'Malaysia is panas—but we love it here!' . They also posed for photos with a few lucky fans and shared how grateful they were to be back in Malaysia since their last visit in 2024. And when asked about their favourite Brice rice puff flavour, they all said that truffle was definitely their top pick, declaring that it was 'Very delicious!' . But they also cheekily puffed that chocolate or coconut were on their wish list for possible future additions to the crunchy rice puff lineup ( your move, Brice 👀 ). Credit: Brice/ecoBrown's But the celebration didn't stop there. Brice also took the truffle rice puff party on the go with a roadshow that happened from 29 May to 2 June, where Malaysians got to try the new flavour themselves and participate in fun activities for the chance to win special prizes.
