POP MART

POP MART is one of the companies that pushed designer toys from collector subculture into a global retail habit. The official store describes the business as a market-leading player in character-based entertainment, and the group's Hong Kong filings say its core business covers the design, development, and sale of pop toys across China and overseas markets.

Founded in 2010 and led by chairman and chief executive officer Wang Ning, POP MART now operates with public-company scale rather than niche-shop reach. In its 2024 annual results, the group said revenue from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and overseas markets reached RMB5,065.7 million, a sign of how much its international business now matters.

That scale is why crossovers like the aespa Fluffy Club drop land differently. POP MART is not borrowing fandom attention for a one-off novelty. It is plugging K-pop IP into a collectible system built around character storytelling, product formats, and repeat-buy behavior that already makes sense to its audience.

Fans Also Ask

What does POP MART do?
POP MART describes itself as a market-leading player in character-based entertainment, and its Hong Kong filings say the business centers on designing, developing, and selling pop toys. In practice, that means collectible figures, plush, accessories, and character IP sold through official stores, online channels, and retail formats like Roboshops.
When was POP MART founded and who runs it?
POP MART has publicly framed its expansion as starting in 2010, and Hong Kong exchange filings list Wang Ning as executive director, chairman of the board, and chief executive officer. That matters because the company is still closely tied to its founder while operating at the scale of a listed global collectibles business.
Is POP MART the company behind aespa's Fluffy Club drop?
Yes. POP MART's official US storefront is the source for the aespa Fluffy Club rollout covered by HITKULTR, including the listed May 1, 2026 launch timing and the three-item lineup. That makes POP MART the direct retail platform behind the collaboration rather than a secondary licensing or marketplace partner.
