BLACKPINK’s Lisa is waving bye to Labubus. Her latest obsession? Monchhichi.
The “Money” singer has shared plenty of photos of herself to her socials sporting the monkey baby hybrid charm affixed to her designer bags, replacing the ever popular Labubu, a trend she’s widely credited with starting. The character, hailing from Japan, has gained major popularity, especially as the bag charm and blind box crazes have blown up in 2025.
With fans such as Lisa to back it, Monchhichi has lent its adorable IP to PopSockets for a collaboration of epic proportions. The electronics accessory company just dropped a Monchhichi-themed collection featuring six phone tech products, including ultra-cute MagSafe PopGrips and whimsical phone cases. The PopGrips retail from $40 to $45, while the cases retail for $45. Every Monchhichi-themed product incorporates gingham prints and pastel hues. They can be purchased on the PopSockets website now.

You may be reading this and thinking to yourself, “What’s a Monchhichi?” We’re glad you asked. The plushie is from Japan and was originally created by the Sekiguchi Corporation in 1974, so they’ve been around way longer than Labubus. The design is meant to look like a monkey with a tail, ears and a pacifier. The body is often made of soft faux fur, while the face, hands and feet are made of plastic.
We love this collection because it incorporates the cultural phenom that is Monchhichi with designs that are undeniably sweet with tech that is meant to make your life easier. Take the MagSafe cases, for example. You’ve got three styles to choose from: the Cutie Patootie, Framed and Best Friends styles. These PopSockets cases are basically indestructible, with industry-leading 10-foot drop protection. They’re also compatible with all PopSockets MagSafe accessories, giving you the ability to further customize your case. Unlike those bulky protective cases, PopSockets’ cases are sleek and slim, easily fitting into your pockets. These cases are also compatible with a multitude of iPhone models, from the 13 through the 17 Pro Max.

The MagSafe PopGrips are also a must-have in our book. The PopGrips also come in three styles: the Heart Best Friends, PopOut Monchhichi and Jelly Cutie Patootie. The ergonomic design allows the user to hold the phone easily without worrying about the phone taking a tumble. They’re also expandable, so you can snap selfies and prop your phone to watch videos. The product collapses back in on itself, lying flush against the phone so you can easily slide it back into your pocket. The MagSafe tech utilizes strong magnets that keeps your Monchhichi grips secure to your case. No sticky adhesive or slip-ups here.
Beyond its functionality, these PopGrips are also an easy way to accessorize your phone, giving your tech endless personality without you spending a fortune. Every design is pink and pastel blue, equipped with smiling Monchhichi figures. With the holidays right around the corner, we’d recommend snagging these tech accessories for that blind box-obsessed person in your life. We guarantee they’ll love this collection just as much as we do.
If you’re curious, the peculiar name Monchhichi is an amalgamation of the French word “mon” — or “mine” — and the Japanese onomatopoeia “chichi,” which mimics the sound of a baby sucking a pacifier — hence the attached pacifier.
