What it is
A bite-size candy plus a random acrylic stand of Meonjaggwi/Chiikawa characters—packed as a novelty confection + collectible in one. Marketplace pages call it “먼작귀 아크릴 스탠드 캔디 낱개 랜덤” with unit price signals around ₩2,500 and random assortment mechanics. Several sellers specify ~20 designs and offer 1 BOX = 24 pcs options; some list the display as 9 g × 24 (216 g).
> Terminology note: “Meonjaggwi (먼작귀)” is the Korean shorthand for Chiikawa, a hit Japanese character franchise.

Why it sells (retail & e-commerce)
1. Fandom pull + unboxing. Character IP + “random pull” drives multi-unit purchases (collect & trade) at a snack price point. (KR listings show random/“낱개 랜덤” language.)
2. Proven price-perceived value. ₩2,500 unit signals work for pegs and gift fillers; a 24-count display makes micro-endcaps easy.
3. Visible popularity. Chiikawa’s official KR presence (pop-ups, announcements) underscores active regional demand—useful for planning events and co-promos.
4. Cross-category placement. Lives in candy, stationery/character goods, phone-charm corners, and convention kiosks without changing your planogram.

Licensing & brand safety (plain-English)
IP: Chiikawa is a character property by artist Nagano; the franchise scales globally via licensing partners (e.g., Spiralcute; recent agency appointments in SE Asia highlight active expansion). Selling branded goods requires authorized SKUs or a new license with the rights holder/agents.
Market reality: Chiikawa’s momentum (media, pop-ups, collaborations) is strong; authenticity controls matter given counterfeit risk headlines in the region. We source from authorized channels and keep licensor approvals on file.

Compliance & labeling (we handle both the food and the merch)
Food side: ingredient/allergen panel, nutrition facts, origin, lot/date code, importer-of-record docs; GS1 barcodes for unit/display/master. (KR pages label the item as candy and show 9 g × 24 references.)
Merch side: acrylic material disclosures; age-grading & small-parts warnings (acrylic stand is not a toy); Prop 65/EU chemical compliance as applicable.
QA: AQL 2.5 pre-ship on seal integrity, unit weight, acrylic print/edge finish, stand/base fit, and drop/ship tests.

Private label & customization (if you don’t use the IP)
Non-IP route: same candy + acrylic stand format with your brand or seasonal art (no royalties).
Assortments: 12–24 designs per box; duplication rate policy set at PO.
Formats: maintain 9 g × 24 or switch to gift sleeves (6–12 ct) for events.
