Seven Eleven announced on the 18th that it will sell limited edition Sanrio Characters envelopes, perfect for giving to children and relatives ahead of the Lunar New Year.

The Sanrio Characters envelopes come in two types: 'Characters' and 'My Melody & Kuromi.' The Characters envelopes feature various popular Sanrio characters, including the iconic Hello Kitty, while the My Melody & Kuromi envelopes focus on the two characters, My Melody and Kuromi.

Each product set includes two envelopes and two stickers. The sales period is from the 19th of this month until the 28th of next month. At Seven Eleven, customers can purchase the Sanrio Characters fancy envelopes for 1,000 KRW when they spend over 5,000 KRW, and at Ministop, the envelopes are available for 1,000 KRW with the purchase of a lunchbox product. The fancy envelopes can also be purchased separately for 3,000 KRW.

A Seven Eleven representative said, “Since Sanrio characters have been loved for a long time, we expect these envelopes to be used not only as lucky money envelopes for children but also as sticker storage envelopes for the MZ generation (Millennials + Generation Z) who are passionate about decorating their diaries.”
