◆New Events◆

\[Back-to-School Sticker Challenge]

Gull of all trades, master of every single one.

Event Duration: August 29, 6:00 AM - September 14, 6:00 AM (Server Time)

Collect all event stickers to get rewards!

Event Details: After the event starts, D.G. Members can obtain \[Random Stickers] by completing daily event quests. Stickers are randomly drawn from currently available themes. Collecting a specified number of stickers in each theme unlocks corresponding rewards.

Send Sticker to give duplicate stickers to other D.G. Members. You can send up to 5 stickers to the same player per day.

Please note that the unclaimed rewards will be sent to your in-game mailbox the following day. Once the event ends, the unclaimed accumulated rewards will also be delivered to your mailbox.

◆New Features◆

\[Hot Air Balloon Event]

Take to the sky with your friends in a hot air balloon. Enjoy the whole new view of the flower sea.

How to Play: Once D.G. Members reach level 18, they can start this event through Gazing Boy. Eligible members will receive a Hot Air Balloon Event invitation every Saturday and Sunday at 4:00 PM (Server Time). Please note that the event cannot take place on rainy or snowy days.

Once the event begins, you can choose between the Flower Field Route and the Town Sky Tour to enjoy the sights. Each hot air balloon can carry up to 6 members at a time.

\[Friend Styling]

Go face-to-face with a friend and style a look you'll both adore!

How to Play: Once the Friend level reaches 2, D.G. Members can start Friend Styling and invite their friends to join.

When it begins, the helper can use their friends' clothing to dress them in real time. Both members can chat and interact with emotes. After finishing the styling, the outfit can be saved.

\[Photography Update]

1. The Camera now features a Selfie mode that can be toggled among Default, First-Person, and Selfie. Please note: Selfie mode is currently unavailable in Whalefall Canyon.

2. Selfie mode supports switching between selfie actions and facial expressions. You can also drag on the screen to adjust the background angle.

3. The Camera's zoom range has been expanded, and wide-angle shots are now supported.

\[Main Story Quest Update]

After the Fashionwave ends, Whalefall Canyon will get a Main Story Update. D.G. Members who have reached the required Home Level can accept Main Story Quests from the Whalefall Canyon main screen. The quest chain is divided into three parts.

By completing these quests, you'll earn rewards such as Exploration Level XP and Certificates of Exploration, unlocking even more Whalefall Canyon content. D.G. Members who have already completed all quests in the current Fashionwave can choose to skip the Main Story Quests and claim all quest rewards directly.

As you progress through the Main Quests, the Cleanliness cap for each area of Whalefall Canyon will also gradually increase.

\[New Arrivals in Store]

The Self-Service Lab now offers new interactive furniture research: Wall‑Mounted Control Panel, Control Console, Floor-Standing Control Panel, Master Control Console, Floor‑Standing Master Button, Ceiling‑Mounted Master Button, and Wall‑Mounted Master Button.
