YooHoo & Friends (Korean: 유후와 친구들) is a South Korean animated children's television series produced by Aurora World. The series is based on the toyline of the same name. The series focuses on a group of animals that accidentally get sent to Earth, and must find the missing magical seeds of the Tree of Life to get back to their home.
The series initially debuted on KBS2 on July 2, 2009 for one season. Two more seasons of the show would then air, starting from October 21, 2013 to April 9, 2015 on KBS1. The show was not renewed for a fourth season.
In 2012, an official English gag dub of the same name based on the first season of the series was released (while Aurora World released an official English dub that was actually faithful to its original source material on Amazon Prime Video in 2011), created by David Feiss and produced by Toonzone Studios. It was made for Western audiences to relate to the series more, but was panned by audiences and critics and never got a second season.
In 2019, a Netflix series based on the franchise, YooHoo to the Rescue, was released.
