If you've watched "K-Pop Demon Hunters," you know the cute tiger & magpie.
The tiger showed up in Korean folkart which became popular during the Joseon period. It is thought to represent the ruling class and is often made to look foolish. Some think the magpie represents the commoners.
You'll see one of the famous Hojak-do (Tiger Magpie painting) pieces below as well as a current day sculpture (with LED lights embedded in it for animations at night) that was in Myeongdong, Seoul across from my hotel.
