“What if ‘Beauty and the Beast’ was a Korean folktale?” Disney Korea asks in a Facebook post describing a special promotional image for its latest live-action film. The image, which gives the Western fairytale a whimsical Eastern makeover, is a work of South Korean illustrator Wooh Nayoung, better known by her nickname “Obsidian.”
Wooh is popular for her “Fairy Tale Series” in which she depicts characters from popular Western fairy tales as ethnic Asians wearing Hanbok -- Korean traditional clothes -- or other Asian traditional clothes. “At first, I was going to draw an illustration for the folktale ‘The Fairy and the Woodsman.’ Then I thought it is too cliche for folktale characters to wear Hanbok,” Wooh said in a phone interview with the Korea Herald. “So I thought, ‘How about Western fairy tales then?’”
