Charo is a puppy who became the star of "Little Charo," an English learning program that aired on NHK. He was discovered as a newborn, alone in a snowy park, and taken in by a boy named Shota, who became his owner.
The show's best-known storyline follows Charo's accidental separation from Shota in New York City. Despite being stranded far from home, Charo never gave up on finding his way back to Japan—a determination that fans of the program still remember fondly. His unwavering loyalty to Shota and his kind, brave nature made him a compelling character for English learners watching the show.
