“It’s important to do what you love and you must adhere to it”

-How did it begin?-
The Taiwanese cartoonist Yara is the creator who adds cuteness and healing power to Capoo.
He was an information management major. During his sophomore year, he bought a drawing tablet out of his interest in illustration and that's how he started to become a self-taught creator.
At first, he published his works on Bahamut to keep himself motivated to create more. Along the way, he was inspired to design the Capoo character, which he continues to draw.

-Turn Everyday Life into Energy-
Yara enjoys observing his surroundings in his daily life. He has a lot of opportunities to observe kids thanks to his mother’s job as a babysitter. Also, he likes to watch videos featuring different varieties of animals and pets. He puts those elements into his creation. Therefore, the personalities of a lot of his characters are formed, and energy and ideas are collected for his illustration. 

-Being Persistent with His Passion-
After graduating and entering the workplace, he realized that he couldn't get rid of his fascination with drawing, so he worked and drew at the same time in order to make a living, and published his illustrations and comic strip on multiple platforms. After being built up by everyone's support, he quit his job and became a full-time creator to inject more energy into the Capoo universe, and to bring more creations and comfort into everyone’s daily life.
