On Friday, shares of Here Group Limited (HERE.US) climbed 10% to close at $5.79. The surge comes as the company recently celebrated the grand opening of its first offline flagship store, marking a significant milestone in its strategy to deepen its physical retail footprint. Fueling the brand's momentum is the core IP WAKUKU, which has seen its popularity skyrocket again following the late-November launch of the new third-generation plush product series, "Instantly Level Up!". The series achieved remarkable sales, generating over 18 million yuan in its first week across all sales channels. Shi Guangqiang, Co-founder and Executive President of Here Group Limited, commented, "The company is committed to providing younger generations with a richer emotional companionship experience through more innovative products and user-centric scenarios, aiming to establish WAKUKU as a truly epoch-defining cultural symbol for the youth."
