This is KBS News posted on their Facebook page on Aug 16, 2016: https://www.facebook.com/kbsnewsulsan/videos/1773492906196653/ We posted the story with other news covering this case here: http://koreandogs.org/ulsan-dog-slaughter/ It was reported on August 16, 2016, by KBS News and Kukje News, and again on August 17 by TV Chosun News, that the butcher of a dog slaughterhouse in Ulsan, Namgu District Sanggae-dong that has been brutally slaughtering and selling dogs has been caught. On August 12, ahead of ‘Malbok,’ the 3rd of 3 ‘Boknal’ Korean dog days of summer, Ulsan City officials and Busan KAPCA(Korea Alliance for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) conducted a joint inspection of this dog slaughterhouse and caught the butcher AOO with dogs bludgeoned with a hammer and knife stuck in their throats to bleed them to death in full and unobstructed view of other live dogs. At the time of the visit, Busan KAPCA reported that two dogs were lying on the ground bleeding profusely. One of the dogs was still alive and torturously gasping for breath. Pursuant to Article 8 of the Animal Protection Law, the act of killing an animal in front of other animals of the same species is subject to up to 1 year of imprisonment or a monetary fine of up to 10,000,000 Korean won. Accordingly, Busan KAPCA reported AOO to the police for the blatant violation of the Animal Protection Law. Until last year, businesses that slaughter and market a variety of livestock animals, including dogs, were prevalent in the old Sanggae-dong livestock market area. When the livestock market was closed down the number of slaughterhouses was significantly reduced. However, 6 dog slaughterhouses remain in operation, inflicting unbearable pain and suffering on these animals and selling their meat. An Ulsan city representative stated that several years ago, local government over this jurisdiction conducted a broadscale maintenance, thereby eliminating the illegal dog slaughterhouse buildings. However, because the actual act of slaughtering dogs for the purpose of human consumption is not illegal, there are still people selling dog meat.
