In South Korea, dogs are still killed for food. They are mostly eaten by the older generation. Only recently have they become more popular as pets. And 61-year-old Jung Myoung Sook from South Korea has been saving dogs for the last 26 years. She has taken care of over 200 pups so far and has saved them all. Although Sook is not wealthy, she not only looks after stray animals but also purchases unfortunate puppies intended to be sold to restaurants.

“My babies aren’t hungry,” Sook told the Associated Press. “They can play and live freely here. " Some people talk about me, saying, ‘Why is that beggar-like middle-aged woman smiling all the time?" said Jung. “But I just focus on feeding my babies. I’m happy and healthy.”
