Narin and Narae are a line of Slim Mini and 1/3 sized dolls created by the Korean artist Bimong. They have been variously sold by Dollmore, Dollfair, Bimong himself (at his homepage Bimong's Atelier) and D-Storic. Currently (as of 2013) Bimong has regained the rights to his dolls. In 2018 he opened a limited order for some of his dolls.

Narae is the girl line, and Narin is the boy line. According to Bimong, "Narin means a child from the sky and Narae is a word for ‘wings’ in traditional Korean."

Narin and Narae have been cast in both urethane and French resin, and a variety of resin colors. The 4xcm slim minis ("N40") use a faceplate system with over a dozen different interchangeable faceplates being available, in a different range of expressions. The 60cm dolls ("N60") use regular headsculpts, with a similar range of expressions.
