LINE FRIENDS recently kicked off a brand new subscription box service called LINE FRIENDS BOX, and Hypable got the chance to check them out! Here’s our thoughts on what arrived, plus a special coupon code for new subscribers!

About LINE FRIENDS BOX:

The LINE FRIENDS BOX has two different subscription options available, one which is $59.99 per month and the other is a three-month plan for a total of $175.47 (which comes out to $58.49 per month). Both plans allow you to pause or cancel at any time.

Every month you get the LINE FRIENDS BOX full of surprises that are worth over $120. The box includes items from both the BROWN & FRIENDS and BT21 characters.

LINE FRIENDS BOX review:

Naturally when I first heard about the LINE FRIENDS BOX I just had to check it out. With the promise of cute merchandise from BT21 and BROWN & FRIENDS characters, I don’t think that anyone can blame me.

Originally, I was only supposed to get one box courtesy of Fever Guys (the company running this subscription box service). To be completely honest though, my original box ended up getting so delayed that I was sent a second box. And then they both ended up arriving within a few days of each other.

To be fair, shipping delays are always a possibility with any international shipping. There really isn’t much that can be done when it happens so buyers just need to be aware that it can happen and they just have to be patient if a box happens to be late.

The first box that arrived is actually my favorite of the two, though I do like the second box as well. I just ended up getting more (small) things in my first box and that really made it seem like I was getting a lot of goodies. It also had more BT21 merchandise in it, which is a big bonus in my book.

Plus, I got a little SHOOKY mirror and he’s my favorite so that’s extra bonus points.

I also really liked some of the BROWN & FRIENDS items that came in the box, especially the cute little monthly planner that I’ve already started to use. And the two bags that came in that box I can definitely use as well.

Though, some of the other items I’m not sure that I will use. Like the CONY Tea Towel, I’m honestly not sure what this is really for. The SALLY toothbrush, and the CHOCO bag charm might go unused as well.

Considering how much stuff I got in the first box, it’s not surprising that there are some items that I don’t have use for though. This is just part of the risk of a subscription box. If you don’t like the idea of having things you might not be able to use or don’t like then subscription boxes in general probably aren’t for you.

I actually like almost everything that came in the second box, there was just less of it because the BROWN coin bank took up a large portion of the box. It’s also a pricier item and it’s really quite adorable. I kind of just want to keep it on my desk as a cute little decoration.

I also got a hair band which I was kind of hoping for. Even though it’s not a BT21 character like I really wanted, I still plan on using this cute PANGYO one. I think the only item that won’t get used in this box is the hair clip. I did also get a duplicate item that I’d gotten in the first box as well, which was the TATA bag charm.

Aside from the items that come in the box, the packaging itself is really visually appealing. The box has super cute BT21 and BROWN & FRIENDS characters on it and it makes me want to keep the boxes as well.

If you’re into BT21 or BROWN & FRIENDS gear, and you like subscription boxes I would say this is worth trying out! Since you can cancel at any time there isn’t much risk involved.

The biggest downfall of the box is probably the price. Spending $59.99 a month is a good chunk of money, even if you are getting a good value for the items that are included in the box. It would be a cool if they came up with a less expensive, smaller box as an option for people to choose from as well.

If you’re just trying out the LINE FRIENDS BOX for the first time be sure to use our coupon code HYPABLE10 for 10% off the first box! You can visit the official website for the subscription box for more information: https://linefriendsbox.com/
