South Korean girl group [NewJeans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indomie) introduces its partnership with dessert brand Nudake, owned by eyewear label [Gentle Monster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nudake). The partnership, called ‘[OMG! NU](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sourdough-pretzel)+JEANS,’ was made especially for the group’s forthcoming record entitled ‘OMG’ and includes a variety of treats and merchandise. The collection is highlighted by a vibrant assortment of five bunny-shaped cakes that reveal a heart when cut in half, along with NewJeans-inspired accessories like cake cutters and ornaments.

Red pockets with pop-up cards of each member—Minji, Haerin, Hyein, Danielle, and Hanni—who also manifest as cake toppers—are included in the collaboration. A napkin with the NewJeans Tokki ring emblem is stitched on it to complete the set.

The NewJeans x Nudake ‘OMG! NU+JEANS’ pop-up will be present at Nudake's HAUS DOSAN and Seongsu locations from December 23, 2022 until January 21, 2023.
