SM Entertainment Under Fire For “Poorly Designed” NCT DREAM AirPods Case
SM Entertainment is under fire for their newly released artist merchandise.
This time around, fans are not unhappy with NCT DREAM‘s collaboration with CASTIFY, particularly their earbuds case.
One standout product in the collection is the ‘NCT DREAM Collectable Edition Earbuds Case,’ designed to resemble the group’s official fanlight. This adorable and fashionable accessory allows fans to express their love for NCT DREAM in a delightful way.

Though it was a fun idea basing the design off the original lightstick, fans were less than pleased upon getting ahold of the merchandise. One popular review highlighted the fact that the cap of the case does not fit properly and thus “doesn’t even do what an AirPods case is supposed to do.”

airpods cases usually come in two pieces, but the top for this one just doesn’t fit the airpods

They asked if it passed any quality control check prior to its release since it appeared fragile and poorly made.
did this seriously pass a quality control check

They noticed that it is even more expensive than a Neobong, the official lightstick of the group. It costs $98 USD per piece while the lightstick was around $55 USD.
not that neobong airpods case is way more expensive than the real neobong itself 😭
