Experience Korean Folk Art in 3D
Magpie and Tiger, or Hojakdo, is a well-known theme in Korean folk painting. The image typically brings together a tiger, a magpie, and a tree in a lively and expressive composition.
The MKH-101 Magpie and Tiger Transforming 3D Viewer Card presents this traditional Korean artwork in a compact and engaging format.
At first, it appears as a flat art card. With one simple press, it transforms into a personal 3D viewer. Look through the built-in lenses to experience the tiger, magpie, tree, and decorative details with a vivid sense of spatial depth.
The product combines Korean folk art, optical viewing, bilingual cultural content, and collectible design in one portable format.
A Traditional Image with a Playful Character
The tiger in Hojakdo is often portrayed in an exaggerated, humorous, or approachable way rather than as a strictly realistic animal. The magpie and tiger together create a visually distinctive scene that has become closely associated with Korean folk-art imagery.
This 3D viewer card highlights the layered structure of the composition, allowing the viewer to observe the relationship between the foreground figures, the tree, and the background in a more dimensional way.
A Card That Becomes a 3D Viewer
The product is designed for immediate and simple use.
There are no separate parts to assemble and no complicated folding process. Press the top and bottom edges toward the center, turn the viewer horizontally, and bring it to your eyes.
The flat card instantly transforms into a functional personal 3D viewer.
How to Use
- Hold the card upright.
- Press the top and bottom edges toward the center.
- Turn the viewer horizontally.
- Hold it up to your eyes.
- Look through the built-in lenses to experience the artwork in 3D.
Not a Lenticular Card
This product is not a lenticular postcard.
A lenticular card creates its visual effect directly on the printed surface, usually by tilting the card from side to side.
The 3D FOLCA works differently. The card itself transforms into a personal viewer, and the artwork is seen through its built-in optical lenses.
It is also different from a conventional pop-up card. A pop-up card creates raised paper shapes when opened, while the 3D FOLCA forms a viewing device designed for looking into the artwork.
| Product Type | How It Works |
|---|---|
| Lenticular card | The image changes or appears dimensional when tilted |
| Pop-up card | Paper elements rise when the card is opened |
| 3D FOLCA Viewer Card | The flat card transforms into a viewer with built-in lenses |
