Dancing into the Korean New Year!

Our animation for Apple's celebration of Seollal, Korean New Year, featuring illustrations by Steph Ramplin.

We were asked to create an all-singing, all-dancing animation to celebrate the Korean New Year, for use across Apple Services and throughout Seoul. 

The animation was themed on 'Heung' – a Korean word that means 'collective energy and joy'. It's a cultural sentiment that plays a key role in Korean culture.

To add to the joy, the integrated campaign was shortlisted in the 2025 D&AD Awards.
