Mashimaro is Korea's most popular cartoon character created in June 2000 by Kim Jae In and Jang Mi Yeong. It is the main character in the story of Mashimaro Forest. He is a cute new character, who happens to be a bunny that likes to play tricks and is actually quite a mean practical joker. It has won fans' hearts over the years with its fatty and dumpy look.
The name is derived from marshmallow since Mashimaro looks like one! However, Mashimaro is a twist on the name marshmallow. It sounds like how a baby would say marshmallow: Mashimaro.
My younger daughter, Fur bought it on her visit to Korea in 2009.
