I can’t find the original to credit the artist, so if you know who made this, pls comment.

There’s a bit of original writing still on the second panel that looks maybe Korean

The white V pattern on the bear makes it an Asian Black Bear. Definitely feeling Korean
Looks like Reddit was on the case 6 years ago. I’m not going to link to the thread, and just dump the relevant bits instead. Most of the links appear dead anyway.
From reddit:
So it comes from a webcomic series of short gags with the title: “심심할때 그려보는 K군의 조금이상한 두컷만하”
(edit: correction of 페 per Keppay)
Edit: artist’s gallery www.cyworld.com/kbk74 browse back far enough to 2005-06
edit: kjoonlee put the artist name down as 고병규 or “Byeong-Kyu Ko” and google brings up a profile for him:
Google Translated says that he went into mobile game dev as as a founding member / director of Flint (who developed Dragon Blaze)

This site has several of the artist’s comics. I doubt this is the original web page, but the images are uncropped to give the artist credit - Mr. K’s two-cut cartoons

Can confirm aha, this is faithful reposting because other sources of the bear comic date back to at least 2006, but this blog is the best location. Comics may need Google Lens to enjoy aha
