SUBIBI Studio



SUBIBI Studio is an animated film production studio based in Seoul. 

Our work draws upon memories and the lingering sensations of experiences from our everyday life. Using hand-crafted animation and painterly expressions, they convey the abstract aspects of memory and emotion in a more intuitive and sensory manner. In doing so, they connect the deeply personal memories within the work to the audience, expanding them into new narratives and chapters.
