Model Hwang Mi-hee at Round 1 of Korea Scooter Race Championship 2013. The popular race queen got married last year (if not mistaken, or going to do so soon), guess she’s fulfilling her contractual duties before retiring from the field. She’ll always be one of the bests. Photos by Wasab [Kr], via Koreangirlshd [En].

Japanese Hello Kitty melon

May 25, 2013 by Yein Jee

A melon producer in Furano, Hokkaido, has grown some cute cantaloupes with the image of Japanese’s favourite icon Hello Kitty engraved on the fruit surface.

hello-kitty-melon

The limited item (300 pieces) will be on sale until July 31. I suspect it won’t last until then despite costing 4,980 yen (US$48.53) apiece. Seems steep to most people but high quality melons are priced at this range in Japan, it’s not extraordinary.
