Who is Ho salt?

Ho salt is a South Korean YouTube channel that mainly presents short animations. At the center of the channel are two main characters: Curry and Sig. Like most of the other characters, they are cats. The channel focuses primarily on these cats; they appear in numerous animation memes and videos where they mostly do silly or funny things, such as dancing. Additionally, there is the series House Bug, which originated even before the cat characters.

​

Ho Salt is a character featuring a head shaped like a hexagonal salt crystal. Furthermore, he is the owner of Curry and Sig, the main characters. The corresponding emoticon of Ho Salt shows him giving a side eye.

​

He goes about everyday activities until something occurs that breaks this routine. At times, he can be seen in a locked room fully dedicating himself to creating animations. Additionally, it was shown that according to lore, Salt is a fisherman by trade.

​

His name is derived from the Chinese character "Ho" (湖) for "lake" as well as the salt crystal that forms his head.
