Why is it important?
It provides a lot of nuances to the practice of dog meat consumption in Korea and challenges preconceived ideas such as the presumed division dogs Koreans eat and dogs Koreans don't eat, which hardly holds in practice.
Perspectives
It gives a voice to Korean stakeholders and reduces stereotypes.
