Korea Dog Meat Association Protests Against Dog Meat Ban Legislation
Attendees of a protest organized by around 200 members of the Korea Dog Meat Association and the Korea Dog Meat Sellers' Association hold placards and shout slogans in front of the War Memorial in Yongsan District, in Seoul, South Korea, on October 8, 2024. During the rally near the presidential office in Yongsan, they demand that the government scrap its proposed compensation plan, stating, ''The government is forcing us to shut down businesses that could continue for at least 20 more years without offering proper compensation.'' The protesters also call for guaranteed income over a specified period of time. (Photo by Chris Jung/NurPhoto)
