Diseñador: Kasing Lung
Kasing Lung (龙家升) is a Hong Kong-born artist and illustrator, born on December 31, 1972. His parents emigrated from Hong Kong to Utrecht, Netherlands, in the 1960s, and he rejoined them in 1978. It was during this formative period that a teacher introduced him to illustrated books rooted in Nordic folklore and mythology — an influence that would define his aesthetic for decades. He earned a Bachelor of Arts spanning design, photography, publishing, and sculpture, graduating from art institute in 1995 before returning to Hong Kong as an illustrator. In 2003, amid the SARS epidemic, he relocated to Belgium, won the first Chinese Illustration Award, and began collaborating with publisher De Eenhoorn on children's books. Around 2010 he pivoted to toy design, partnering with Taiwan-based art toy brand How2Work. He debuted his character Labubu — a pointy-eared, sharp-toothed forest spirit — as part of The Monsters series, drawing on the same Nordic myths of his childhood. In 2019, he entered an exclusive licensing agreement with Pop Mart, dramatically expanding global distribution. In April 2024, Labubu achieved worldwide viral status after BLACKPINK member Lisa was photographed with a Labubu keychain, igniting demand across Southeast Asia and beyond. The Monsters line generated approximately $430 million in revenue for Pop Mart in 2024. Lung maintains studios in Antwerp and Hong Kong.
