😂
I have Yook Gong, Chil Gong and Pal Gong!!!
( one each for my daughters and I 😜)

Another old (iconic) plushie is the one from Kim Sam-soon! :)

Mr. Buckwheat from Goblin!

P.S. Due to my addiction to YB, my username to almost everything back then was "piggyrabbit" AND my alarm tone was "Promise" by A.N.Jell. Ohhh the nostalgic memories.

I have one plushie, but not really inspired from my drama watching. It is a huge dolphin plushie, which reminds me of Junsu of JYJ. Old idol fans in here would know that Junsu is often called dolphin because of his high pitched voice, and he even has multiple of the plushies at home. So when I found one, I immediately thought of him and bought one. Ah, now all I need is for him to be discharged from military service so that I can be a full-blown fangirl all over again..

Before You're Beautiful aired on our local channel, I already finished watching it. Imagine my surprise when I walked into a thrift store and saw a brand-new, sealed Pig-rabbit plushie. It even had the drama's tag on it. I squealed so loud that several people looked at me. I bought it for $4, that was 8 years ago, now, pig-rabbit's whereabouts are unknown. Probably under the pile of all the plushies my family owns. :(

OMG!! I loved the Pig Rabbit. Hence my avatar. You're Beautiful also made me really want to buy my own Pig Rabbit and then to attach my own hair pin onto its ears. Ahh the memories.

YAB is so so wonderful drama and while reading your post i just want to rewatch it. it gave me all sort of feels that i was head over heels for it for a very long tome after finishing it.
I lovee pig rabit but alas there is no way i could buy it then in india... so i just had to let go of my urge...

What a lovely post! @alynsilver ^^; I'm totally on board with this plushie obsession you have - it is the single most cute thing I've heard about in a while. Glad you are now able to buy all the K-drama plushies you want. ^^

This is so adorable @alynsilver ! I've wanted to purchase plushies too because they many dramas feature such cute ones but alas I don't have enough space and I wouldn't know what to do with them after a couple of years. 😂

The plushies surgery scene was pure gold 😂

I’m so jealous that you have a yookgong at home reporting your every moves to oh-gong! Was sorely tempted to get him and mr buckwheat from goblin. Great read, thanks!

I don't get the need to buy plushies but watching drama with them makes me miss mine. I have two favourites maya and zoya. I can't even remember why I named them.....

This is sweet. I briefly thought about writing about all the k-drama plushies when Yook-gong appeared and I finally found one plushie I need. Still on my list.
How about 🐌 from BTIMFL?

"I wanted to be able to hold the pig-rabbit in my arms"

That is how my username and profile avatar were born. (Or maybe I wanted to be Pig Rabbit in Tae Kyung's arms... ahem, never mind). :D

I love LOVE plushies! The bigger, fluffier & softer, the better!
I love them so much that when I go to malls & such, I make sure to go to the kid's stores & spend time in the plushie section XD Its like therapy, haha, I hug the life sized plushies while kids stare at me. XD And then I walk away like it's no big deal.
I'm happy that you can shop as much plushies as you want now :-)

My profile pic on DF is a pig-rabbit. Ahhh the memories.

I bought a pig rabbit plushie from a seller at Myeongdong in Seoul when I was in Korea for vacation...it's kinda offbrand but I love it anyway! Like the tie and nose are not like the drama one but it only cost me $10. I have it displayed proudly on top of my bookshelf

I kinda want the monkey plushie and I haven't even seen Hwayugi yet LOL those Hong sisters really know how to insert the plushie PPL ;)

So glad someone else like plushies. :D I am 27 and still carry around my dolphin plushie around the world. People who give me weird looks can sue me, I don't care.

So, three plushies from Goblin are in my entertainment center, and I see them daily. So what if they clash with the minimalist Asian style of the house, I can always say they belong to my kids! Lol! This was a very cutely appropriate write up?

I may have also bought myself a pig-rabbit plushie keychain. Super cute.

The pig-rabbit is the mascot of DramaFever. And when they (unjustly) fired me (after being bought out by Warner Bros.) I can't even watch "You're Beautiful" without being annoyed. But I think I'll buy me a Mr. Buckwheat. (Or maybe a big stuffed chicken drumstick, like from My Girlfriend is a Gummiho. Or Doolie and his girlfriend (Doolette?) from Master's son? ANYTHING but that pig-rabbit.

Aw! I love all the plushies too! I've had to hold back from getting the sloth, a Goblin (got a t-shirt instead), and a Yook Gong (used him as a wallpaper on my phone). LOL!

I love this! The plushies are my favorite as well ~ though, since I’m broke I improvised and made my own Yook Gong and Pig Rabbit, because my favorite hobby is making toys while watching dramas!

Congratulations, Alyn!
And thanks for the chance to talk about an unusual kdrama related plushie I have, a gift from my best kdrama watching pal. It's a 10" Hello Kitty that is dressed as the Prince-as-Groom in Goong. That's right. Hello Kitty in a purple satin sort of Chosun (male) wedding getup, complete with gat perched on one ear. Our other best kdrama pal got the bride companion in red hanbok. The best part is that they appear to have been Korean McDonalds premiums of some kind because they both have the golden arch logo smack in the center of their sashes. Our friend paid a mint for them on eBay.

The pigrabbit! omg, the memories. It wasn't my first drama, but it did start off my binge-watching/addiction/wanting to buy things from dramas. I'm comforted to know I'm not alone. I wouldn't mind a keychain version, or a snail from BTIMFL. What a lovely article, A nice slice of nostalgia at the end of a week. :)

I have a tiny plushie pig-rabbit keychain that I got on Amazon. It's so freaking cute.

Such a lovely article! I only recently got hooked at korean dramas that's why might as I want I can't find any pig-rabbit anymore :( YAB is my most favorite kdrama that's why I really, really want to find the official plushie.

Thank you for a lovely post! Now I'm inspired to buy a plushie which looks like Oh Jak Doo.. or Kim Kang Woo or both.

Pig-rabbiiiiiit!!! I had a keychain plushie for that one when I was in college but I think I lost it though 😑

Amazing how k-dramaland manage to make money from plushies as well!
