Chunsik’s Imagination Tour | ROUNDNROUND

ROUNDNROUND, as creators of visual arts, goes above and beyond expectations, as demonstrated in their 3D animated film for the Kakao Friends collaborative campaign with Incheon International Airport, titled ‘Choonsik’s Sangsang Tour.’ The story revolves around Choonsik, a cat from Ryan’s stray cat, who becomes a giant in his dream and embarks on a world tour. The film was displayed on media towers at Incheon International Airport.

Choonsik is one of the characters from Kakao Friends, with Ryan being the main character, a bear. KakaoTalk is a cross-platform messaging application that allows users to send and receive messages for free on smartphones and make free calls. It is available on iOS, Android, Bada OS, BlackBerry, Windows Phone, and personal computers.

Creating this film required a large team, and their collective effort brings forth a heartwarming experience. Additionally, the film showcases various iconic landmarks from around the world, such as the Pyramids of Egypt, Times Square in New York, the Roman Colosseum, and other notable destinations.

The intricate details in the animation not only evoke a sense of tenderness but also provide a visual tour of diverse global landmarks. Through the charming character of Choonsik, the audience is taken on a whimsical journey, encountering these renowned sites and experiencing the magic of travel and dreams. The collaborative work not only highlights the creative prowess of ROUNDNROUND but also serves as a delightful exploration of cultural and geographical wonders on a global scale.
