Chuncheon Mime Festival's Mongdori Meets Puppet Festival's Cocobau

Mongdori, the mascot of the Chuncheon Mime Festival, met Cocobau of the Chuncheon Puppet Festival in April 2023. The two festivals launched the Samsamoo Project, featuring Mongdori and Cocobau together.

The Chuncheon Mime Festival and the Chuncheon Puppet Festival both started in 1989. In 2023, the two festivals marked their 35th anniversary side by side. The two festivals, which began in the same year, joined hands with their mascots in front, and the project took place in 2023, the year both festivals turned 35.

Mongdori is the mascot of the Chuncheon Mime Festival. Cocobau is a character of the Chuncheon Puppet Festival and became Mongdori's partner in the project. In effect, two festivals in one city promoted each other through a meeting of their mascots.

Mongdori also helped promote the 2023 festival. The Chuncheon Mime Festival shared news of the Spring Restaurant held with Mongdori, and young artists also took part in promotional materials for the 2023 Chuncheon Mime Festival.

The Samsamoo Project and the Spring Restaurant news were recorded on the Chuncheon Mime Festival blog in 2023.
