KAWS has teamed up with Netflix and AllRightsReserved for a special collectible in celebration of the second season of Squid Game.

The global reach of the Korean thriller game show saw the first season captivate viewers worldwide, capturing a staggering 330 million views to date. Ahead of the Squid Game Season 2 premiere, ARR has partnered with KAWS and Netflix to create a set of “YOUNG-HEE” collectibles. Inspired by both KAWS’ iconic character the COMPANION and the bone-chilling character from the series, the collectible design sees Young-Hee as a puppet with two tufts of hair in an orange dress look, fusing KAWS’ COMPANION aesthetic with the “X”-crossed eyes and dynamic hands and arm poses. Another model arrives in a monotone colorway for the 15-inch tall figure.

The KAWS “YOUNG-HEE” launches on December 20 at 10:30 a.m. HKT online on a first come first serve basis while stocks last. The collectible will also be available at the limited time pop-up in Seoul at the SHINSEGAE Department Store Gangnam starting on 10:30 a.m. KST on December 20.
