In The Soop Pop-up in Malaysia
Malaysian ARMY and CARAT – or fans of BTS and Seventeen respectively – won’t have to deal with FOMO feels anymore. An In The Soop Pop-up store is now open at 1 Utama Shopping Centre, where fans can purchase everything from loungewear to plushies inspired by the reality series both groups featured on.
The pop-up store will open from 29th April to 28th August 2022, from 10AM-10PM.

On 18th April 2022, morningKall – the organiser behind the BTS pop-up store in Malaysia and around the world – announced on Twitter and Instagram that In The Soop Pop-up will be making its way to our shores.
The pop-up store is currently open till 8th May in Singapore, and has been thrilling fans with its outdoorsy set-up to match the show’s calming feels. In Malaysia, the store will open for about four months from 29th April to 28th August.

At the Malaysia pop-up store, there are several photo ops located around the mall – including one with In The Soop’s adorable blob-shaped mascot SOOPY in a camping-themed photo zone, and another with TinyTan figures to strike your best pose with.

Just like the last BTS-themed pop-up store in Malaysia, In The Soop Pop-up will be located at the same mall, but at a different spot – G313 Ground Floor LUXE, just next to a Tommy Hilfiger outlet there.

Alongside their announcement of its location, morningKall also uploaded several guidelines for Malaysian fans heading to the pop-up store. Some important ones you’ll want to take note of include:
- Visitors must have a ‘low risk’ status on MySejahtera
- Mandatory wearing of face mask at all times inside the pop-up store
- Number of visitors inside the pop-up store will be limited, with a virtual queue system enforced
- Priority admission will be given to online reservation visitors
While you can walk-in and visit the store, you can also make an online reservation here for a date and time to visit the store and skip the queues.
Merch that fans can look out for
Malaysian ARMY and CARAT can look out for an assortment of pastel and neutral-coloured merch at the In The Soop Pop-up in Malaysia.
Merch from the show ranges from loungewear – including T-shirts, hoodies, beanies, and pyjamas – to lifestyle products such as rugs, towels and cushions.
They will also be giving out complimentary postcards as a welcome gift for visitors, on a while-stocks-last basis.
