Pucca (/ˈpʊkə/; Korean: 뿌까 [p͈uk͈a]) is a South Korean media franchise from the South Korean company Vooz. The titular protagonist, Pucca, is the niece of three Korean men who run a noodle restaurant called Goh-Rong in Sooga Village, a small village in the mountains. Pucca is also in love with the ninja Garu (가루 [kaɾu]), and Pucca always seems to beat him in combat and unintentional competition simply by sheer will.[1] Since taking the first step in Flash animation in January 2000, it has focused on character goods business and has gained great popularity in Korea, France, Southeast Asia, and other countries. In the ‘2020 Overseas Korean Wave Survey’, it is a global character that has maintained the top spot in preference for Korean animation characters for five consecutive years.[2]
