The Origin of "Lufudufu" artistic pseudonym
Lufudufu was born from love. A timeless classic.
First came LOOFUDOOFU — a playful, silly twist on a tender word of affection Loveydovey, and the sound people make when imitating hedgehogs.
Out of that joy grew LUFUDUFU — a name with rhythm, warmth, and wonder.
It carries the sound of affection and the spirit of play, now home to two mischievous hedgehogs and their world.
LUFUDUFU ... became the sound hedgehogs make running full of joy through blooming meadows,
as soft grass tickles their fluffy bellies.
Puffing and huffing to themselves they go:
"Love and Do, Love and Do, Lufu-Dufu-du..."
Every rhyme, every sketch, every story still carries that first spark:
love, laughter, and the little rustling steps of hedgehogs turned into a world.
Lufu is Love, Dufu is Do,
A heart finds home in a world brand new.
