I remember being immediately drawn to how soft and warm it felt, and I found Moomin\u2019s round eyes and cute ears especially adorable. From there, I naturally became more interested in the Moomins, and later I watched the animation as well, which made me love the world of Moomin even more\u201d, RENJUN tells.<\/p>\n<p>Like many Moomin fans, no matter the age or background, RENJUN feels drawn to the stories because of their comfort and warmth.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-170976 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/RJ_MOOMIN_3-1-960x1280.jpg\" alt=\"Renjun Moomin\" width=\"960\" height=\"1280\"  \/>RENJUN reading Tove Jansson\u2019s Comet in Moominland<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTheir world feels warm and gentle, without being overly dramatic or intense.

It\u2019s like the stories are saying, \u201cIt\u2019s okay,\u201d and \u201cYou are enough as you are. That is why Moomin became more than just a cute character to me \u2014 it became something I wanted to keep close for a long time\u201d, he shares.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-170981\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/RENJUN_Post2_3-1-960x700.jpg\" alt=\"Renjun Moomin\" width=\"960\" height=\"700\"  \/>On Moomin\u2019s Day 9th August 2026, RENJUN released a Chinese EP Title Track \u201cEchoes Between Us\u201d, featuring a special animation inspired by Comet in Moominland.<br \/>\n\u201cI treasure the Moomin plushies I have received from fans\u201d<\/p>\n<p>RENJUN still keeps many Moomin plushies at home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust looking at them makes me feel relaxed, and because they are so soft and fluffy, they are perfect to hug or lean on.

I think Moomin has such a soft, warm, and round personality. He makes the people around him feel comfortable, and I really like the way he accepts others as they are.
