Jennifer NguyenShare
Welcome to our cozy corner of plushie tales! Today, we’re exploring the whimsical world of ShinWoo Ragbear Clinicblind box plush pendant keychains and unraveling the heartfelt story of their creator, Shin Woojung.
The Ragbear Clinic Series is a charming blind box line by Finding Unicorn in collaboration with artist Shin Woojung. Each plush pendant—about 3.9" to 5.1" tall—is a tiny rag-doll bear with button eyes, stitched patches, and adorably worn features. Hidden within the set of 6 regular designs, there's also a rare “Reflection of Love” secret figure—just a 1.04% drop!Â
They come sealed with an ID card, perfect for collectors eyeing the elusive secret versions. The “clinic” motif plays on the idea that these bears are “patients” healed with love and care.Â
Why They're Special
- Blind-box thrill – Each box holds a surprise; full sets guarantee no duplicates, with retailers replacing extras.
- Lovingly damaged aesthetic – Descriptions emphasize the “torn ears, worn fluff and crooked buttons” as badges of bravery, not flaws.Â
- Pendant design – Plush comes with a metal chain, making it a stylish keychain, bag charm, or small décor piece.
- Keepsake card – Every figure includes an ID card to reinforce the story of each bear as a unique patient in the ragbear clinic.
The Backstory of Shin Woojung
Shin Woojung, often referred to simply as ShinWoo, is an artist with a tender fascination for imperfect, lovable creatures. Drawing from their own childhood memories of ragged dolls, ShinWoo created a narrative world where “forgotten, tattered dolls find refuge” in the Ragbear Clinic, receiving “refuge, stitching together fragments of love.” My Plastic Heart
Their philosophy? Imperfection is beautiful, and scars are stories of survival. ShinWoo’s characters embody resilience—each plush is a celebration of emotional healing, stitched with empathy and warmth.
Collecting & Display Tips
- Blind-box strategy: If you're chasing all 6 designs or the secret, purchase a full case or multiple boxes to maximize variety.
- Care and cleaning: Gently hand-wash in cool water; reshape while damp and air-dry. Keep away from rough surfaces to preserve their charm.
- Display ideas:
