LABUBU is one of the characters of Monster Kingdom, created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung and inspired by Norse fairy tales. He designed it to be an elf, with sharp teeth and long, small but high ears. This is not a rabbit as everyone understands. She also has a mischievous personality, has a kind heart and always likes to help others. Many people will remember LABUBU with a round face and chubby body, but before that, this character actually had a slim figure, slim face and high cheekbones. This version was the first time Kasing Lung designed with How2work before he signed with Pop Mart.
