🧸 Who Is Labubu?
Labubu was created by artist Kasing Lung and inspired by Nordic folklore. Mischievous yet kind-hearted, Labubu is often described as a “forest elf monkey”—part trickster, part companion, with a signature wide smile and serrated teeth.
Labubu became a fan favorite after being launched in Pop Mart’s "The Monsters" series and has since appeared in dozens of collections.
