Partnership Country Campaign – South Korea – France 🇰🇷🇫🇷
The President of France, Honorable Emmanuel Macron: Please tell your Partnership Country, South Korea, you oppose the torture and consumption of dogs and cats.
If you want to help fight the grisly South Korean dog and cat meat trade and make a difference in South Korea, here are a few quick actions you can take that could save millions of dogs and cats each year.
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol tweeted on 6/20/2023, “🇰🇷🇫🇷 have nurtured a close partnership in various fields, sharing values of freedom, human rights, and the rule of law. 🇰🇷🇫🇷 will further strengthen our multifaceted cooperation through value-based solidarity at regional and global levels, along with bilateral cooperation.”
In South Korea, there are numerous dog farms, slaughterhouses, markets, and restaurants where the dogs, who have been tortured their entire lives, end up being slaughtered in the most inhumane ways, such as by electrocution, hanging, or beating, and then thrown into boiling water – sometimes while they are still alive. In many places, dogs are being killed in full view of other terrified, caged dogs; and this takes place in broad daylight. In addition, many abandoned and stolen former pets end up in this industry and are subject to the same cruelty.
A Search Engine reveals the sickening scale of South Korea’s dog meat demand.
Two searches on Naver (the most popular search engine in Korea) – one was for so-called “Health Centers,” which commonly sell dog elixirs and cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju), and the second one was for “dog meat restaurants” – resulted in thousands of Health Centers and dog meat restaurants in South Korea.
Even if half of these ‘Health’ Centers and restaurants serve dog and cat ‘ingredients’ in one form or another, imagine how many dog/cat slaughterhouses must be in South Korea to supply these outlets.
There are laws in South Korea against selling dogs and cats for consumption, yet these laws are blatantly ignored.

The President of France, Honorable Emmanuel Macron: Please tell your Partnership Country, South Korea, you oppose the torture and consumption of dogs and cats.
Dear President, Honorable Emmanuel Macron, First Lady Brigitte Macron, Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne, and the members of the French government:
As President and representatives of France, we ask you to reconsider your “partnership” with South Korea, a country that permits dogs and cats to be horribly abused and brutally killed for food.
While graphic, these undercover videos depicting South Korea’s dog meat industry are important to watch:

Dogs who suffered their entire lives are electric tortured and killed in cages—South Korea’s horrific dog meat industry. https://koreandogs.org/jtbc-news-electric-tortured-in-cages/
South Korea consumes millions of dogs each year. There are countless dog farms and dog slaughterhouses in South Korea. Korean web searches turn up thousands of dog meat restaurants and so-called “Health Centers” that commonly serve soup made of dog meat as phony elixirs (also known as dog soju).
Dogs suffer their entire lives in filthy, feces-encrusted raised wire cages in dire misery only to be slaughtered in the most horrific of ways— tortured by electrocution, hammer strikes to their head, hanging, being beaten to death, having their throats slit, being burned alive with a blowtorch or thrown into a vat of boiling water while still alive. In many places, dogs are killed in full view of other caged dogs who tremble with terror. These poor dogs are often burned alive in their cages, unable to escape. They are fed rotten, maggot-infested garbage full of chili peppers unfit for any animals to eat, and they are not given water. In addition, beloved pets are often stolen and sold to these slaughterhouses, where they meet the same horrific fate. Puppies who die of disease are tossed away like trash, often left in front of cages to rot while their mothers watch and cry out in despair.
In the United States, Mayor Christopher Chung of Palisades Park, New Jersey, has already shown his rejection of the dog meat trade in no uncertain terms. As reported in the Korea Times, he recently rejected a visit from exchange students from the friendship city, Incheon Ganghwa County, due to its dog meat trade. In California, the Los Angeles City Council unanimously passed a resolution supporting legislation or administrative action that would request the governments of South Korea, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Cambodia ban the sale of dog meat and enforce their animal protection laws.
On behalf of companion animal-loving people worldwide, we ask that you follow these bold leads by not remaining silent in the face of such abhorrent cruelty. Please urge South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol to shut down all dog farms, slaughterhouses, markets, dog meat restaurants, and truckers transporting dogs to their inevitable fates. An online petition calling for your support in ending such horrors perpetrated in South Korea is in progress: https://chng.it/YLPL9BG5.
Thank you for your serious consideration. We eagerly await your reply.
Sincerely,
[Your name, city, country]

Monsieur le président de la République Française, Monsieur Emmanuel Macron : Veuillez dire à votre pays partenaire, la Corée du Sud, que vous vous opposez à la torture et à la consommation de chiens et de chats.
Monsieur le Président, Emmanuel Macron, Madame Brigitte Macron, Madame la Première Ministre Élisabeth Borne, et les membres du gouvernement français.
En tant que président et représentants de la France, nous vous demandons de reconsidérer votre « partenariat » avec la Corée du Sud, un pays qui permet que des chiens et des chats soient horriblement maltraités et brutalement tués pour la nourriture.
Bien que graphiques, ces vidéos d’infiltration illustrant l’industrie de la viande de chien en Corée du Sud sont importantes à regarder :

Les chiens qui ont souffert toute leur vie sont torturés à l’électricité et tués dans des cages – l’horrible industrie de la viande de chien en Corée du Sud. https://koreandogs.org/jtbc-news-electric-tortured-in-cages/
La Corée du Sud consomme des millions de chiens chaque année. Il existe d’innombrables élevages de chiens et abattoirs de chiens en Corée du Sud. Les recherches sur le Web coréen font apparaître des milliers de restaurants de viande de chien et de soi-disant « Centres de Santé » qui servent généralement de la soupe à base de viande de chien comme faux élixirs (également connu sous le nom de soju pour chien).
Les chiens souffrent toute leur vie dans des cages métalliques surélevées sales et incrustées d’excréments dans une misère extrême pour être abattus de la manière la plus horrible – torturés par électrocution, coups de marteau à la tête, pendaison, battus à mort, égorgés, être brûlé vif avec un chalumeau ou jeté dans une cuve d’eau bouillante alors qu’il était encore en vie. Dans de nombreux endroits, des chiens sont tués à la vue d’autres chiens en cage qui tremblent de terreur. Ces pauvres chiens sont souvent brûlés vifs dans leurs cages, incapables de s’échapper. Ils sont nourris d’ordures pourries pleines de piments rouges impropres à la consommation d’animaux, et on ne leur donne pas d’eau. De plus, les animaux de compagnie bien-aimés sont souvent volés et vendus à ces abattoirs, où ils subissent le même sort horrible. Les chiots qui meurent de maladie sont jetés comme des ordures, souvent laissés pourrir devant des cages pendant que leurs mères regardent et crient de désespoir.
Aux États-Unis, le maire Christopher Chung de Palisades Park, New Jersey, a déjà montré son rejet du commerce de la viande de chien en termes clairs. Comme l’a rapporté le Korea Times, il a récemment refusé la visite d’étudiants d’échange de la ville de l’amitié, le comté d’Incheon Ganghwa, en raison de son commerce de viande de chien.
En Californie, le conseil municipal de Los Angeles a adopté à l’unanimité une résolution soutenant une législation ou une action administrative qui demanderait aux gouvernements de Corée du Sud, de Chine, du Vietnam, d’Indonésie et du Cambodge d’interdire la vente de viande de chien et d’appliquer leurs lois sur la protection des animaux.
Au nom des personnes qui aiment les animaux de compagnie dans le monde entier, nous vous demandons de suivre ces pistes audacieuses en ne restant pas silencieux face à une cruauté aussi odieuse.
Veuillez exhorter le président sud-coréen Yoon Suk-Yeol à fermer tous les élevages de chiens, les abattoirs, les marchés, les restaurants de viande de chien et les camionneurs transportant des chiens vers leur destin inévitable.
Une pétition en ligne appelant à votre soutien pour mettre fin à ces horreurs perpétrées en Corée du Sud est en cours : https://chng.it/YLPL9BG5.
Merci pour votre considération sérieuse. Nous attendons votre réponse avec impatience.
Sincèrement,
[Your name, city, country]
Hello, I’m calling to speak to someone in the President’s Office to ask for their help on an important issue regarding your Partnership Country, South Korea.
If I could explain: Dog-meat consumption is currently being practiced in that country, even though it is illegal under South Korean Law – but the laws are not enforced. The dog and cat meat trades involve extreme and widespread animal cruelty, and the animals suffer unimaginable pain and distress. They cannot speak for themselves, so I am calling on their behalf. And, I believe that your nation would wish to be made aware of this issue, as you would not want to affiliate with a nation where illegal and immoral torture is being carried out on any animal, and particularly not on ones that are loyal, trusting creatures, which look up to us humans as their guardians.
This illegal industry is being allowed to continue by South Korean authorities – even though there is growing opposition from pet guardians across South Korea and worldwide.
So, I am asking you to please speak with your counterparts in South Korea to urge them to enforce their laws, not ignore them, show compassion to their companion animals, and respect their citizens by bringing this cruel industry to an end.
I know South Korea has many beautiful, admirable, and noble practices and customs worth preserving, but this is not one of them.
Thank you for your time and understanding.
No matter where you live, PLEASE SHARE these actions with your friends, especially those who live in France! 🙏
I am only allowed to send an email to 100 people at a time in CC or BCC. So I cannot send to all those South Korean members. I used the top 100, but very few actually made it as the undeliverable notices are flooding in now.
Don’t tell me to get a gmail address as I cannot afford cellphone service and we Canadians need a cellphone number to get a gmail email account.
Also sent the first 3 politicians the messages on their websites.
That’s all I can do.
Hi there, if you go into the recipients and remove a few of the last emails (until it will send that 100) you can then go in and copy and past the next 99 etc. I also get a lot of rejection emails but I think many go through. This is a huge task but am hopeful that most get to the recipients. We must keep going and fighting for these poor souls.
Thank you so much for these resources. I have sent emails to all of the above contacts, and as others said some came back but most have gone through! I hope we can make an impact on these poor animals lives. Please help if you can!!!
I am so angry and pissed off! Don’t you lowlife asses know that dogs and cats are more intelligent than you all? I am a nurse and i have studied the anatomy of both the animal and human. We are similar and we are the same with the same aging diseases, and with same things in life to survive. They are voiceless and innocent, but they are hell of a lot better than you lowlifes could ever be and that is a God dam fact. Period!! We are God’s creatures big and small. You all are the Devil’s creatures. Get it!!! Just remember Evil Begets Evil. Thank you! Lauren Wallace
