Based on an examination of the previous research and dissertations, it tries to find the basic foundation of the theory and contemplate the tendency about how Character Design has been used in artists’ works. Results Neo-Pop Artists have succeeded in making their works distinctive by using Character Design and been using Character Design more extensively to express their own identities because the public already felt bored on the existing characters.

They are using the internet to communicate with the public and deliver their identities. If they succeed to communicate with the public and gain the sympathy via their characters, they could make Art collaboration with various companies and retain market potential.
