Cuckoo
Cuckoo (布谷鸟) is the tenth figure. Red-haired Hirono in a grey-blue suit sits on the floor holding a large clock face on a chain, wearing a paper crown with a star and an English phrase that begins “Don’t wo… about t…”. The English title of the first Hirono exhibition in 2021 begins the same way: Don’t Worry About Tomorrow.

FAQ
What does Hirono Cuckoo mean?+
POP MART does not explain it. Cuckoos live in cuckoo clocks, and the figure does hold a clock face on a chain. Beyond that, Lang has said he does not want to impose one reading. The exhibition the crown echoes is covered in our article.
What is written on Cuckoo’s crown?+
POP MART’s official photos show the beginning, “Don’t wo… about t…”. The full text is not in frame, so we do not quote it as a whole.
