About

There She Is!! is a South Korean Flash animated series produced by the three-person team SamBakZa. Originally hosted on the SamBakZa website, the series gained international popularity in the spring of 2004 upon its introduction to American and European audiences. The series originated from the comic strip 'One day', which was published from November 2000 to March 2002 in The Newspaper We Read Together, a Braille publication by the Hankook Ilbo. The series is widely recognised for its high-quality animation and classic manhwa styleistic elements.The overwhelming positive reception of the initial short, which including a surge in fan art and community feedback, prompted SamBakZa to expand the project into a multi-episode series.
