Equipped with UV sterilizers and speakers in a cute refrigerator of LINE characters, it is very popular with Korean crafts
With the emergence of crowdfunding, which recruit individuals, it has become possible to create a small number and elite product that can not be made by mass production of major manufacturers.In Korea, a slightly unusual refrigerator for living alone appeared last year and this year in crowdfunding.In addition, it is not just a refrigerator but also features a special feature that reflects the times, which is familiar to Japanese people.
In July 2020, the Korean crowdfunding "Wiz" was a cylindrical portable refrigerator, which gained popularity from 834 people to 387,697,700 won (about 37 million yen).It is a refrigerator that can refrigerate drinks that are slightly larger but not equipped with a frozen function.The design uses "Brown" and "Sally", a Japanese LINE character.The body size is 680 (brown) / 660 (sari) x width 380X in the back 450mm.Because it is a cylindrical shape, you do not choose a place to place, such as the side of the bed or the corner of the room.
This refrigerator is not just a character motif.First, the function as a refrigerator is 3 degrees from 3 to 16 degrees.It may be okay if you buy ice cream from a convenience store and keep it for a short time while taking a shower.The capacity is 31L.It is divided into two rooms, the fuselage of the main unit and the face open on the top.The height of the torso can also be included in a 2L plastic bottle.
Since the fuselage can also have a partition plate, you can put a lot of pudding and 100ml packed drinks.There is plenty of storage space inside the door.If you are a woman, you may want to put cosmetics on the top face.
The maximum storage is 33 for a 330ml beer can, and 12 for a 500ml mineral water.It is a unique explanation in Korea that 11 360ml shochu bottles are included.I guess it will last for about a week if you enter this much.
By the way, this refrigerator also has a function other than cooling.First, the Bluetooth speaker function.3W stereo speakers are built in the lower part of the main unit, so you can connect your smartphone to play music wirelessly.If you have a refrigerator right next to the bed or desk, you can play music from your smartphone with a loud sound while sleeping or sitting in front of the desk.
And another function is an indispensable ultraviolet sterilization function in the present era.If you attach a separate ultraviolet sterilizer to the space on the face part of the refrigerator, you can insert a mask or smartphone and sterilize with ultraviolet rays.The crowdfunding sold 865 brown and sunny refrigerators, and there were 201 purchasers for ultraviolet sterilizers.Approximately one in four people has purchased, and the sterilization function has attracted much attention.
It can be used for various purposes, such as sterilizing not only masks but also makeup tools that you usually use.The sterilization time can be set for 1, 3 minutes, and 5 minutes by the timer.It also has a safety function that automatically turns the ultraviolet light when the face (lid) is opened during sterilization.
This refrigerator was sold in Japanese yen for about 40,000 yen.Unfortunately, it is a crowdfunding last summer and does not seem to be sold now.Instead, in 2021, a new model that designed the Korean SNS and a cocoa talk character "Ryan" has appeared, and was sold in May on the cacao crowdfunding "Kakao Makers".It seems that sales were also strong.
CCOMO, a manufacturer of this refrigerator, is a solid company that also works on products for major home appliances.Although the two crowdfunding has been performed well, the character is popular, but it will also have a feature that has not been found in the Portable refrigerator, such as Bluetooth speakers and ultraviolet sterilization functions.In the future, we would like you to sell not only crowdfunding but also mail order sites, including collaborations with other characters.I would like to expect sales in Japan.
