News of its return to Singapore first made waves after a hoarding of the restaurant, featuring K-pop girl group Le Sserafim, was spotted at Chinatown by an X user. The quintet is currently the brand's ambassadors.

Mom's Touch was previously operated by No Signboard Holdings' subsidiary Hawker QSR. In February 2022, Mom's Touch closed its remaining outlets at The Centrepoint, Paya Lebar Quarter and Eastwood Centre.
Back then, The Business Times reported that No Signboard had been served letters of demand from its landlords due to unpaid rent amounting to almost $176,200 for its two Mom’s Touch outlets at Paya Lebar and Centrepoint.

The hoarding features the five members of Le Sserafim – Chaewon, Sakura, Yunjin, Kazuha and Eunchae – each holding a food item from Mom's Touch, with the tagline "Something fearless is coming to Singapore" – a play on Le Sserafim's motto.
More information will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Le Sserafim will be returning to Singapore on Nov 28 as part of its Pureflow world tour. As of writing, the venue and ticket prices for the concert have yet to be announced.
