Tell us about yourself!
Hello! I am Isa Kim, an illustrator from Korea. I like to draw characters from my favorite series and work on drawings for my own original stories!
What are you known for?
I'm mainly known for creating digital fan art and original art in social media communities. After I uploaded fan art for the "Sonic the Hedgehog" Movie , I became famous on Instagram!
Who is your favorite Sonic character?
Sonic the Hedgehog! Ever since I was little, Sonic has always been my idol (I aspire to be like him). My personality isn't too cool, so I always thought Sonic was great and looked up to him because he was so cool and kind to his friends. He helped me to be kind to others. I've learned so many things from Sonic, like how to help people and not to forgive unreasonable things!
What was your first encounter with Sonic?
When I was in elementary school, I remember being in my grandmother's room and seeing a blue hedgehog playing on the TV from a Nintendo console. I thought it was interesting that a video game character was also in an anime, and so I started watching Sonic X. I've loved Sonic ever since! I still sometimes listen to the theme song and ending song.
Besides this Sonic comic, do you have anything exciting coming up?
I love all of Sonic, but recently the Sonic movie has been my favorite. I'm thinking of writing my own fan comic book of scenes I'd like to see before the 3rd Sonic movie comes out! It's going to mainly focus on when Shadow appears and a story about Agent Stone. I love all the new characters as much as the main cast of characters in Sonic!
