Olive Young Black Friday Random Box 8 Types – My Honest Review
olvieyoung fandom box

This year’s Olive Young Black Friday event (Nov 1–7) featured a special limited-edition Random Box sale, available only on Nov 1 and Nov 7. These boxes were sold in limited quantities on a first-come, first-served basis. There were two price options: ₩5,000 and ₩30,000, each packed with surprise items worth ₩29,000 and ₩140,000, respectively. Since each person could only buy one box per type, I visited multiple Olive Young stores and managed to grab four of each, totaling eight boxes!
