Personality
Korone has an outwardly sweet and energetic personality that sharply contrasts with her occasional violent and animalistic tendencies while playing games such as Minecraft. She often kisses other Hololive members for no reason, and has a high-pitched laugh that resembles a train whistle. Like most dogs, Korone is fiercely loyal, but mostly towards Nekomata Okayu. The two are rarely seen apart, and fans have dubbed the pairing "OkaKoro".

Korone has a fondness for retro games, especially more niche ones. She derives a great amount of amusement from the strangeness that can be found in these games, often laughing at how absurd or weird they can be.

Korone speaks a unique dialect/accent of Japanese. Although she has mentioned working on changing it to the more common accent, it is apparently still very noticeable to many of her fellow VTubers in Hololive.

Lately she has taken notice of her English-speaking fans, and has started to go out of her way to interact with them. Most notably, she was able to successfully use Google Translate to relay messages in English to her fans. She has also commented on some English-translated clips and memes made by her fans, using English to express her appreciation.

History
She was first announced on 22 March 2019 in Shirakami Fubuki's stream during which Fubuki debuted her new 3D model. Fubuki announced that she alongside with Nekomata Okayu will join Hololive Gamers in April. This was followed up by an announcement on Hololive's Twitter account on 25 March. She was officially introduced on 1 April.

Her Twitter account was opened on 24 March 2019 while her YouTube channel was created on 25 March. She made her debut on 13 April although she has appeared on the streams of other members of Hololive before her debut, the first being on Subaru's channel on 7 April.

She received her 3D model debut on September 14th 2019.

Trivia

 * Viewers have noted a similarity between her voice and mannerisms to Aya of AyaMina Games, who ceased to be a VTuber a few months before.
 * During her introduction, her height was wrongly written as 156 m instead of 156 cm. This has caused her fans to joke about her being a giantess whenever her image is portrayed especially bigger compared to other VTubers in the same video.
 * While obviously an Inugami/Dog-Girl, Korone has cited on several occasions that her specific breed is the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
 * Korone has a rather good English skill as seen in one of her tweets.
 * Oftentimes when Korone streams the device she is using to do live stream named "AirServer" tend to glitch or timed out causes her model to turned into a giant Airserver icon.
 * She has mentioned on stream that her accent comes from a combination of her grandmother's Kansai dialect and an unknown dialect of her parents that has not been revealed.
 * Her accent seems to differ most notably from the norm in that she alters between up/down inflections between syllables, compared to the more common Japanese accent/dialect which has 3 distinct tones in syllables (up/down/flat). (Video)
