In China, the series will be released by distributor Huashi TV on video websites, including Tencent, Youku, IQIYI, as well as more than 10 IPTV channels and OTT platforms, such as MI.


The deal was brokered by Jetpack Distribution.


"Yoko has proved to have mass global appeal," said Dominic Gardiner, Jetpack Distribution CEO, in a press release. "It contains elements that pre-school kids really love, including magic and adventure. It also highlights the value of play and delivers positive messages."


Yoko follows the adventures of three children, turning ordinary kids' games into adventures.


Yoko is produced by Wizart Animation, Somuga and Dibulitoon Studio and is commissioned by RTVE and ETB in Spain. Season two, which contains 14 episodes, is currently in production and is scheduled to be completed in the fall of 2018.
