뽀롱뽀롱 뽀로로 (Porong Porong Pororo)...
Yay, Pororo the Little Penguin's in town!

Excited when first told by Ms. V on Wed that Pororo and friends're coming to Mid Valley. On Fri, while enjoying my Star Trek Into Darkness, her sweet pic with Mr. Pororo popped out on my whatsapp screen. "Ishhh...beh tahan!!" Sat's locked down with a full day of work and a wedding dinner...Finally early on Sun morning, despite the dizziness and blurriness from sleeping at 4am, we kia su-ly headed straight to Mid Valley for a long waited reunion with Pororo the Little Penguin  and friends.

"Omo...Why you took so long to come and see me?! Oso-wa, come come, take a pic together~"

Okok....Large Medium Small...they're all MINE!!! Wakakaka....

Pororo might be relatively new to Malaysians compared to other popular animation characters like Barney, Bob the Builder, Dora the Explorer etc., but I'm strongly recommending! 

Pororo and friends are adventurous and mischievous in their own ways, with some good and bad habits respectively (which kid is not right?!!). Yet, they're encouraged to explore, to be themselves, and help each other to overcome whatever difficulties and obstacles that come along the way, sometimes, to face the consequences from their own mistakes.

They could be your great Korean teachers too. Fighting!! v(^^)v

Do you know that:
Pororo is a pilot and he plays electric guitar.

Pororo and friends live in the snowy village of Porong Porong Forest:

Far far away, unknown and untouched by human civilization, lies a peaceful island covered in snow and ice. On this white island, deep inside a small secluded forest, is a tiny village inhabited by little animals. No-one knows how they came to live on the island but they naturally came to live together in the village situated in the little valley where the sunshine is warmest and the cold wind is least harsh. 

In the village lives Pororo, a very inquisitive impish little penguin, good-natured polar bear Poby, smug nosy red fox Eddy, shy and timid little beaver Loopy, friendly penguin girl Petty and happy humming bird Harry. All of our friends have distinct personalities and different interests which sometimes cause little (and sometimes not so little) happenings in their calm white world. But they are all good friends and know how to help each other in times of trouble. -Pororo Official Website-

Pororo's popularity has won him the title of "뽀통령" or Pororo the President among the children, and to some extend,  "뽀느님" or Pororo the God! OMG!

Pororo is 10 years old, still POwerful and POpular!!

As of 2012, the character ‘Pororo’ is a worldwide phenomenon. While Pororo’s TV animationPororo the Little Penguin has sold to 127 countries and been airing around the world, Pororo has annually been receiving 15 billion KRW (approx 13 million USD) in royalties, on sales 600 billion KRW (approx 550 million Dollars) for characters with a brand value of 800 billion KRW (approx 734 million USD) (by Korea Creative Contents Agency), and a 5.7 trillion KRW (approx 5 billion USD) economic value (by Korea Creative Contents Agency) which all add up to 1 trillion KRW (approx 917 million USD) in international sales (including televising deals, publication contracts and clothing business). -Korean Cinema Today-

Pororo's the PR Ambassador of Visit Korea Year 2010-2012 Campaign too.
