The Companies


Prettyugly - based in New York (Uglydoll)
Sun-Min and David - based in Los Angeles (Uglydoll and others)


Once upon a time...


David Horvath sent letters which had his character Wage to Kim Sun-Min who was moved to Korea after the 9/11 incident. They were dating at that time. Sun-Min sewed a plush doll of Wage and sent it to David as a Christmas gift. One day, Eric Nakamura, a friend who owns the Giant Robot store, saw the doll and sold 20 Uglydolls sewed by Sun-Min in one day. 
By the way, David and Sun-Min are married now.
