POP MART × KeyA —
Give audiences a reason to understand the release.

The story began with Yanran Chen’s creative language and KeyA’s world—so the product arrived with context, not just visibility.

To introduce KeyA at ComplexCon Hong Kong 2026, KURIO created a sponsored #KUR熱話 feature that led with the artist’s thinking rather than a conventional product announcement. The story explored Yanran Chen’s biomechanical visual language and the idea of KeyA as a character in constant evolution, before connecting that creative context to the POP MART release. By giving audiences a reason to understand the new IP before presenting the product, the feature built cultural relevance while keeping the collaboration clearly visible.
