10''[=YooHoo & Friends=]'' (Hangul: ''유후와 친구들'') is a South Korean animated show based on the [[Toys/YooHooAndFriends toyline of the same name]], and the first in the franchise. The series centers on five friends that helped grow the Tree of Life; [=YooHoo=], Pammee, Roodee, Chewoo, and Leemee. When the tree's seeds are accidently blown away to Earth, the group are sent there as well. Now separated from their home [=YooTopia=][[note]]Suddenly called Greenet in season 2 of the English dub.[[/note]], [=YooHoo=] and his friends embark on many adventures to find the missing magical seeds, avoiding danger and meeting new friends along the way.

12The show originally ran for one season in 2009 on [=KBS2=]. The series was then suddenly UnCanceled in 2013 and ran for two more seasons on [=KBS1=] with a noticable {{animesque}} ArtEvolution, and the series officially ended in 2015.

14In the US, the series has a (faithful) English dub that can be viewed on [[https://www.amazon.com/YooHoo-Friends/dp/B075H2N7FC Amazon]] and [[https://tubitv.com/series/300005118/yoohoo_and_friends Tubi TV]].[[note]]For reasons unknown, four episodes from season 2 are missing (see [[Trivia/YoohooAndFriends Trivia]]).[[/note]] You can also view the episodes on the official ''[=YooHoo=] & Friends'' Website/YouTube account [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLK7P9WaLQrgwJ8jH9uMByKu8LnKj5oHgo here]], and [=WildBrain's=] [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfwENH-qBJLBIjbvcDIDjNo2lH0TYWkzH here]].

16Probably most notable for having been officially [[GagDub abridged]] by ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken'' creator David Feiss in 2012, where the show would be re-dubbed and re-animated for a Western audience with a completely different (and frankly, [[QuirkyWork batshit crazy]]) premise. For tropes pertaining to that specific dub, see [[WesternAnimation/YoohooAndFriends here]].

18After the show completed its run, Aurora World would partner with Creator/MondoTV to eventually reboot the franchise in 2019 with a CGI-animated series on Creator/{{Netflix}}, ''WesternAnimation/YoohooToTheRescue''.
