Throughout 2022 and 2023, Chronicle will initiate a series of NFT drops featuring the beloved characters from the YooHoo and Friends collection.
First introduced in 2007 in Korea, the property has exploded worldwide, selling over 100 million plush toys, and spawning several television series available on Netflix and other distribution outlets in over 20 languages in 190 countries.
Each YooHoo & Friends character is inspired by an endangered species and delivers an eco-friendly message to its fans. The NFTs that are dropped will reinforce this commitment to a sustainable environment.
Fans will have the chance to collect characters that reside in habitats from all over the world.
The drops will include 3D characters, their extinction status and facts about the animal on which they are based. Initial drops will feature YooHoo, a Senegal Bush Baby.
Future drops will include additional friends of YooHoo such as Max, the Moon Bear, Sunny, the Emperor Tamarin, Eden, the African Elephant, Batu, the Fruit Bat, and Jolley, the Reindeer.
The initial drops launch today, May 4th, on Chronicle’s marketplace.
Three unique NFTs of YooHoo have been created that will be minted at varying rarities.
There will be 1000 common cards, 250 rare cards and 25 epic cards.
YooHoo fans will have the opportunity to purchase a YooHoo NFT for $25 but will not know which rarity level they’ve secured until after the NFT has been minted.

In addition to garnering a significant fanship, YooHoo & Friends has received a great deal of recognition and awards over the years, including the Korean Contents Award, the Preferred Choice Award by Creative Child Magazine, and the Mom’s’ Choice Award.
Chronicle launched its first NFTs in September 2021 for the world’s favorite bear, Paddington, and recently announced an exclusive partnership with Feisty Pets to mint NFTs featuring that viral toy collection’s cuddly-yet-fearsome plush toys.
