What this is
CHEGOSIM 'Gosim Rangers' POP UP STORE 2026 is a touring pop-up merchandise event celebrating the work of Korean illustrator CHEGOSIM, known for the beloved 'Gosim Rangers' character series. The event travels across four Japanese cities — Ikebukuro, Fukuoka, Nagoya, and Osaka — between June and August 2026. Each location features exclusive 'Gosim Rangers' event illustrations and a sequentially released lineup of merchandise unique to that stop on the tour. Fans who spend ¥2,000 or more on eligible products receive one random hologram card from a set of five types, while supplies last.
Who should go
This event is ideal for fans of Korean illustration, cute character merchandise, and the growing wave of Korean pop culture crossing over into Japan. Collectors will be especially drawn to the limited hologram card bonuses and location-exclusive merchandise drops. The pop-up format suits casual browsers and dedicated fans alike, with a relaxed shopping atmosphere typical of department store event spaces. Arrive early in each location's run to maximize your chances of securing limited bonus hologram cards before supplies run out.
Good to know
Entry to the pop-up store is free, but merchandise sells out quickly at popular Korean illustrator events in Japan — arriving on opening weekend is strongly recommended. The Osaka venue is Tennoji Mio Main Building 6F POP-UP NEXT, a well-trafficked department store event space directly connected to Tennoji Station. Cash is the safest payment option at pop-up events, though many department store event spaces now accept major credit cards and IC cards. The hologram card bonus is strictly while supplies last and is not guaranteed even early in the run, so plan to spend in multiples of ¥2,000 if you are aiming to collect all five card types. Foreign visitors should note that the official website is primarily in Japanese, so using a browser translation tool is helpful for checking merchandise updates.
