Little Red Riding Hood, the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and other fairy tale characters shed their Western wardrobes and don traditional Korean fashions in artist Na Young Wu’s series of incredibly love manhwa-style illustrations.

Na Young Wu is a character illustration artist for games, and in what she calls her “Korean Western Fairy Tale” series, she uses her talents to reimagine familiar characters. Sometimes she uses the color palettes from Disney films, but in other pieces, she focuses on putting her own spin on the stories. You can see more of her Eastern-Western fairy tale illustrations on Twitter—and if you somehow still haven’t enough of Frozen, she has her own take on Elsa on her blog.
