The mascot design is inspired by the official bird of Hualien County—the Maroon Oriole, which first appeared as a mascot during the 2022 National High School Games. Building on this symbol, the mascot's costume incorporates design elements that express Hualien's natural beauty and regional identity.

The medal on its chest represents honor and the spirit of perseverance, symbolizing the limitless potential of young athletes. Dressed in a red athletic outfit featuring the International Children's Games (ICG) emblem, the Maroon Oriole embodies youthful energy and global connection.

More than just a symbol of Hualien, the Maroon Oriole also represents the strong support Hualien offers to all athletes and serves as a warm invitation to the world—welcoming young participants from around the globe to experience unity, joy, and friendship in Hualien.
