Get ready for some spicy tea, Bunnies! The much-hyped NewJeans x Indomie pop-up planned for Seoul from May 1 to 13, 2025, is suddenly in chaos after Indomie mysteriously deleted its Instagram promo. Once again, fans are confused, wondering if the whole thing got canceled after the messy situation with the event and NewJeans’ legal feud with ADOR.

The pop-up was set to serve major vibes with exclusive NewJeans merch and free Indomie tastings, all under the theme of cup noodles. However, the event quickly caused controversy after it was revealed that Indomie organized the event with the fan union, Team Bunnies, and not ADOR. The agency even urged fans to avoid providing their personal data for the event, as it was being collected from Team Bunnies’ fan account.

With a court ruling now restricting NewJeans from doing independent promos, the pop-up’s future is not looking very bright. With no word yet from Indomie on the event, and Team Bunnies having the disapproval of ADOR, things seem to be shaky. For now, fans are left clutching their photocards and praying for a miracle.
