The retractable chubby-sticks, available in 20 shades, have seen a surge in sales since last month. Sales of the lip crayon range increased fivefold, with some stores running out of the products completely.
Park Shin-hye's Matte Pop Orange (No. 12) outperformed the other shades with 10 times the average sales. The 24-year-old actress also wore the shades Velvet Red (No. 16) and Let Me Pink (No. 4) in her role as aspiring journalist Choi In-ha.
