Animation
Kumiho characters in Korean animation have been directly influenced by their portrayals in Korean television dramas, resulting in early animated depictions that emphasize sympathetic or emotionally evocative qualities. For example, the fox spirit in Once Upon a Time with Cabbage Wizard & Radish Wizard, one of the earliest known kumiho-themed animated works, is portrayed as a thousand-year-old fox with a sincere devotion to her family. Likewise, the fox protagonists of Yoranga-Yoranga and Yobi, the Five-Tailed Fox are depicted as friendly, girl-like figures.
