Why did the Busan Bukbu Office of Education change their position regarding the Gupo Dog Meat Market?

The Busan Bukbu(Bukbu means Northern) Office of Education sent official correspondence to both the Busan Bukgu (Bukgu means Northern District) District office and the Busan Bukbu Police on April 28th, 2014 demanding that the Busan Gupo Livestock Market (also known as the Gupo Dog Meat Market) be relocated for being in violation of the School Health Act (https://koreandogs.org/dispute-over-the-gupo-livestock-markets-violation-of-the-school-health-act/).
The Busan Korea Alliance For the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals also filed numerous civil complaints regarding the violation of the School Health Act and various other laws by the Gupo Dog Meat Market.
In their response issued in October 2014 (https://koreandogs.org/busan-buk-gu-district-response/), the Busan Bukgu District Office stated that the Gupo Dog Meat Market is not subject to Article 6, Paragraph 1, Subparagraphs 1, 5, 7, 8, and 11 of the School Health Act and therefore no administrative action or removal was required. No comment was issued as to why the District Office deemed those provisions of the School Health Act not to be applicable.
In response to the Busan Bukgu District’s disregard for the law, in December 2014 we launched a campaign of letter writing directed towards the Korean Minister of Education and Minister of Health & Welfare. We requested statements on their official position regarding the actions of the Busan Bukgu District Office with regard to the Gupo Dog Meat Market.
However, a response dated January 1, 2015 came not from the offices of the Ministers of Education or Health & Welfare, but from the Busan Bukbu Office of Education, and was almost identical to the response of the Busan Bukgu District Office.
Below is the translation of the response received from the Busan Bukbu Office of Education:
Busan Metropolitan City Bukbu Office of Education

Regarding: Response to your petition through e-People(www.e-People.go.kr)
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Following is our response to your petition through e-People.
1. Thank you for your interest in the school educational environment.
2. Please note that each of the provisions of the School Health Act‘ Article 6 does not apply to the dog meat market inside the Gupo Market (Businesses that are not applicable to School Health Act) and therefore it is not subject to administrative action or removal.
The End.
Why did the Busan Bukbu Office of Education contradict their initial demand that the Busan Gupo Dog Meat Market be relocated for violating the School Health Act? Was there pressure from the Ministries of Education and Health & Welfare, or a governmental agency with more power and authority? Did they give in to demands of the local government trying to protect the interests of the Gupo dog meat butchers?
Regardless of the reason, their change in position demonstrates an outrageous contempt for the health of the Dugchun Elementary School children who have to walk past the meat market on their way to school every day and witness the horrendous cruelty perpetrated there. The unconscionable indifference and neglect of duty displayed by the Busan Bukbu Office of Education not only places these children in harm’s way, it is also responsible for the unimaginable torture and brutal slaughter of the dogs at the meat market.
We insist that we be given a clear explanation by the Busan Bukbu Office of Education as to what made them change their position and by what means they concluded that the provisions of the School Health Act‘s Article 6 do not apply to the Gupo Dog Meat Market.
We will begin a new letter writing campaign today to Superintendent Gwon Eung Hwan of the Busan Bukbu Office of Education requesting his official response. This issue is too important and urgent to allow him to ignore it.
Call For Action!

Dear Superintendent Gwon Eung Hwan,
On April 28, 2014, your office sent official correspondence to the Busan Bukgu District office and the Busan Bukbu Police demanding that the Busan Gupo Livestock Market (also known as the Gupo Dog Meat Market) be relocated for being in violation of the School Health Act. (https://koreandogs.org/dispute-over-the-gupo-livestock-markets-violation-of-the-school-health-act/).
In addition to your office’s official correspondence, the Busan Korea Alliance For The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals filed numerous civil complaints regarding violations of the School Health Act and various other laws by the Gupo Dog Meat Market.
The Busan Bukgu District Office issued their response in October 2014 (https://koreandogs.org/busan-buk-gu-district-response/). It was their opinion that Article 6, Paragraph 1, Subparagraphs 1, 5, 7, 8, and 11 of the School Health Act did not apply to the Gupo Dog Meat Market and that the Gupo Dog Meat Market was not subject to administrative action or removal. No comment was offered as to why those specific provisions of the School Health Act are not applicable despite the fact that, as evidenced by the Busan News article, the Gupo Dog Meat Market is clearly within the boundary of the “School Environment, Hygiene, Cleanup Zone” specified in the School Health Act.
To address this issue, a letter writing campaign was launched directed towards the Korean Ministers of Health & Welfare and Education asking for their official position on this matter. We received instead a response from your office dated January 22, 2015, completely changing your position and stating that, without explanation as to why, Article 6 of the School Health Act is not applicable to the Gupo Dog Meat Market.
We therefore respectfully request that you issue an explanation for the change in your position regarding the Gupo Dog Meat Market and why the provisions of Article 6 of School Health Act are not applicable to the Gupo Dog Meat Market.
The Busan Bukgu District Office is clearly choosing to ignore provisions of the School Health Act and disregard the health of the children attending the Dugchun Elementary School, thereby putting those children at risk. We ask that you consider this issue with utmost consideration, importance, and priority. Please remember that the actions you take today will critically impact the emotional health and wellbeing of tens of thousands of current and future Dugchun Elementary School children and will ultimately forever define your legacy.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
[In Korean]

권응환 교육장님 안녕하십니까!
지난 2014년 4월 28일 부산광역시 북부교육지원청은 부산북구청과 부산북부경찰서에 공문을 보내서 구포개시장이라고도 알려진 부산 구포시장이 학교 보건법을 위반하므로 다른 곳으로 이전해달라고 요구한 바 있습니다. (https://koreandogs.org/dispute-over-the-gupo-livestock-markets-violation-of-the-school-health-act/)
이 공문 외에도 부산동물학대방지연합에서 수차례에 걸쳐 구포개시장이 학교 보건법 및 기타 여러 가지 법에 위반된다는 민원을 넣었습니다.
하지만 부산북구청이 2014년 10월에 내놓은 답변은 구포개시장은 학교보건법 제6조 제1항의 1호, 5호, 7호, 8호, 11호에 해당되지 않기 때문에 행정조치 및 철거 명령의 대상이 되지 않는다는 것이었습니다. 부산일보의 기사에서 입증된 바와 같이 구포 개시장은 학교보건법이 구체적으로 명시하는 “학교환경위생정화구역”에 해당되는 것이 명명백백함에도 불구하고, 어떤 근거로 학교보건법 항목들이 적용되지 않는지에 대한 언급은 전혀 없었습니다.
이에 대해 보건복지부 장관과 교육부 장관에게 직접 편지 보내는 캠페인을 진행하여 이 사안에 대한 그분들의 공식 입장을 표명해달라는 요청을 드렸습니다. 하지만 저희는 부산북부교육지원청으로부터 2015년 1월 22일 그간의 입장을 완전히 바꾸어 구포개시장이 학교보건법 제6조에 해당하지 않는다는 내용의 회신을 대신 받았습니다. 역시나 어떤 이유로 해당하지 않는지에 대한 설명은 없었습니다.
따라서 구포개시장 관련 입장 번복에 대한 납득할만한 설명과 구포개시장이 학교보건법 제6조 조항들에 해당되지 않는 이유를 밝혀주시기를 정중하게 요청 드리는 바입니다.
부산 북구청은 학교위생법 조항들을 무시하고 덕천초등학교에 다니는 어린 학생들의 건강을 소홀히 여겨 이 아이들을 위험에 처하도록 방치하는 쪽을 선택한 것 같습니다. 지금 당장 이 사안을 최우선순위로 지정해서 조치를 취해주시기를 간절히 요청 드립니다. 오늘 교육장님의 조치가 현재와 미래의 수많은 덕천초등학교 학생들의 정서 건강과 복지에 중대한 영향을 미치게 된다는 점과 더 나아가서는 북부교육지원청의 족적으로 영원히 남는다는 점을 꼭 기억해주시기 바랍니다.
감사합니다.

감사합니다.
I visited Korea once. Never again. Your treatment of animals and humans is a disgrace. This is one of the MANY reasons I will not support anything from CHINA, S-Korea or JAPAN. Neither have any respect for the animals of their countries. I have nothing but disgust for either country. Join the human race and dig up your heart and use it again. I boycott buying anything from these countries, and the rest of you should too.
I agree totally with Katalins statement! You are a cruel heartless nation. To have a world where goodness reigns, is in opposition to the things you bring to the world. Having a care for amimals and people is so important. If there was no care in the world we would be living in hell. That is the kind of world your contributions make. IT IS WRONG! STOP IT NOW!
I will never support South Korea or China or any country who treats animals in such a horrific way. Shame on you! This treatment of animals in your country is uncivilized.
BOYCOTT THESE SAVAGES…MONEY IS ALL THEY UNDERSTAND…GOD IS WATCHING THEM
I agree with all….the only way to tell these outdated, backwards & historically barbaric countries is to boycott. These parasitic barbarians only understand greed & money. BOYCOTT all products from these countries!
BOYCOTT THESE GREEDY COUNTRIES IN EVERY WAY YOU CAN
I couldn’t agree more!!! I am also boycotting these heartless people in every way possible and strongly urging others to do the same.
The sight of the uncivilized atrocities being perpetrated at the Gupo Dog Meat Market will have a detrimental and lasting effect on the students who have to view these events on their way to school. This market should be closed and consuming dog or cat meat should be illegal.
I don’t think it will bother the little monsters err children they are a product of a sick sick society.. and we as a country sent our soldiers there to fight and die for their evil sick country…….they are killing brutally the one creature on earth who would die to protect them…..if they don’t show mercy here on earth how can they expect it for them… I am just sorry for every life of our soldiers who died in their evil sick country to protect them….. so sick at heart
I AM APPALLED, OUTRAGED AND DISGUSTED THAT THE LIVES OF CHILDREN ARE SECOND TO POLITICAL AGENDAS. WE MUST START YOUNG TO EDUCATE CHILDREN TO DO THE RIGHT THING, TO BE HUMANE, COMPASSIONATE AND KIND TO HUMANS AND ANIMALS ALIKE. IF NOT WE THEN LIVE IN A WORLD WITH NO RESPECT FOR LIFE WHICH UNFORTUNATELY IS WHAT IS HAPPENING TODAY. THIS MUST BE CHANGED AND THAT CHANGE MUST TAKE PLACE NOW TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR ALL. PLEASE RECONSIDER THE HORROR THAT IS HAPPENING AT THESE MARKETS AND HELP STOP IT NOW!!!
Please no more fog meat…they are loyal companions… Social creatures…. Please save them
Please no more dog meat…please save these social loving creatures
THIS BILLION DOLLARE BUSINESS IS ALSO SUPPORTED FROM THE HIDDEN CRIME, AND THAT IS WHY IT IS SO HARD TO STOP THIS HORRIFIC TRADE WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TRADITON OR ANY RELIGION BELIEVE – THIS IS ONLY AN EXCUSE TO TORTURE THESE POOR ANIMALS AND KILL THEM USELESS!! UNFORTUNATELY THE GOVERMENT SEEMS TO BE CORRUPT OTHERWISE THIS TRADE WOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN ABLE TO BE STOPPED!! SO NOW WHAT TO DO!!
I GUESS I’LL CALL MOTHER NATURE TO STEP IN…, SHE MIGHT BE ABLE TO STOP THIS HORRIFIC TRADE FOR GOOD IN HER OWN WAY – WAIT AND SEE!
Please stop this cruel horror from continuing to fester in Korea.
This has to stop
Lets exterminate and then eat these filthy scumbag south Korean dog murdering bastards. PAYBACK IS REQUIRED NOW! An eye for an eye.
Please put an end to this horrendous cruelty. Learn to treat animals as living things, not objects.
South Korea is an undisputed leader in Asia and is respected throughout the world. To continue the inhumane slaughtering of dogs, which most of the world regard as pets or use as service animals or valuable farm hands, is intolerable and belies the modernity that South Korea seeks to project to the world. End ALL slaughter of dogs for meat in South Korea.
PLEASE PEOPLE, WE ARE HUMANS AND HUMANS HAVE A HEART. HUMANS MUST LOVE RESPECT AND CARE NOT HURT, BEAT AND BE CRUEL TO ANIMALS. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH YOUR PEOPLE, THE ANIMALS YOU BRUTELY KILL HAVE FEELINGS LIKE US, THEY FEEL LOVE, PAIN AND SUFFERING. REMEMBER ONE DAY WE WILL ANSWER FOR ALL THIS EVIL THINGS WE DID HERE ON EARTH. PLEASE THINK BEFORE YOU HURT ANY OF THIS ANIMALS. IF YOU HAVE LOVE YOU WILL GIVE LOVE, IF YOU HAVE HATE YOU WILL GIVE HATE. WE CAN ONLY GIVE WHAT WE HAVE. LETS STAND TOGETHER AND FIGHT FOR THESE INNOCENT ANIMALS AND CHANGE THE WORLD TO BE A BETTER PLACE FOR ALL LIVING SOULS. I PRAY FOR ALL OF YOU!!!!!!!!
I soo agree with you. I thought the tsunami a few years ago would make them stop and think but it didn’t have any effect whatsoever. Nobody connected it to karma. Gosh these people are so advanced in technology but the compassion part of their brain is rancid!
Integrity and compassion should guide you to do what is right
If we can live good, healthy lives without hurting another creature, why wouldn’t we?
Only the uncivilized treat animals in this manner – Shame on you!
Stoppen Sie endlich die Hunde und Katzenqual auf den koreanischen Märkten!! Wie zurück entwickelt ist Korea eigentlich, sowas noch zu praktizieren? Zivilisierte Völker essen kein Fleisch und schon gar net Hunde und Katzen! Setzen Sie sich mal in so einen engen Käfig voller Angst und höllischen Schmerzen des Abschlachtens! Habt Ihr überhaupt kein Herz? Wie will sich Korea im Fortschritt wiegen, wenn Korea noch im Herzen und in der Seele dumm und rückständig ist! Was seid ihr nur für ein Babaren- Volk! Wird der primitive Hunde und Katzenmord nicht abgeschafft , soll das koreanische Volk auf immer verflucht sein zu zerfallen durch einen schmerzhaften Virus! Und es beginnt jetzt…
Please, put an end to this horrendous cruelty. Please, learn to treat animals as living things not objects.
S’il vous plait, arrêtez ces cruautés, S’il vous plait ne traitez pas ces animaux comme des simples objets : ce sont des êtres sensibles comme nous le sommes nous-mêmes et non pas des objets.
This is beyond belief. Karma is real. How can this be happening in todays world?
This needs to end! Someone needs to do something! We will not give up until this is over!!
During ‘Apartheid’ the whole world united and stop all imports. It worked. Why can’t the world do it again. Stop all imports from China, Taiwan and Japan. Is the life of an animal less valuable than a human??? That,s the only way.
THESE MARKETS ARE SO EVIL,CRUEL, VILE, APPALLING, DISGUSTING AND MUST BE SHUT DOWN. TO THINK THAT SCHOOL CHILDREN WALK BY EACH DAY AND ….THINK IT IS OK TO PAINFULLY AND INHUMANELY (IN THE MOST HORRIFIC WAYS) SLAUGHTER SWEET INNOCENT ANIMALS IS SO VERY WRONG. NO WONDER WE LIVE IN SUCH A CRUEL,EVIL,VILE WORLD WHERE THERE IS NO RESPECT, KINDNESS, HUMANITY OR COMPASSION SHOWN FOR EITHER HUMANS OR ANIMALS ALIKE . THIS MUST STOP NOW AND WE MUST CHANGE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE FOR OUR WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE RECONSIDER YOU DECISION AND DO THE RIGHT THING FOR BOTH THE KIDS AND THE ANIMALS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a vile decision. I hope these so called leaders protectors find whatever little remain morals they have and protect what’s left in their culture country land and people cause destroying it won’t save anything and that’s what makes you a leader a country and a people. Your example will only lead your land to hunger and destruction. If your practicing evil in your front door now imagine years from now are you really that desperate to show torture killing in an open road for kids to see ain’t healthy. Children are taught that dogs cats are pets not food and they can learn to be better individuals and be great leaders some day by showing and practicing care for these animals. What you teach is what you gunna get and I feel bad for those leaders who aren’t using simplicity and common sense in their land. Now what is right will always end up right and whatever that is wrong will always end up wrong.
This is an outrage!! The unbelievably cruel way of slaughtering dogs and cats in Korea is a source of shame for all the rest of the world. Your lack of compassion speaks volumes of the mentally and spiritual decline of your society. As a human being I am ashamed to have to have to share the world with individuals such as these that have nothing left of what makes us human or a supposedly superior species. These people are down right pscyhopaths taking out their hatred and cruelty on those who have no voice or means to protect and defend themselves.
DOG & CAT MEAT MARKETS ARE HORRIFIC AND SHAMEFUL —
THEY’RE IMMORAL, CRUEL, IRRATIONAL, UNNECESSARY, HATEFUL, MERCILESS — THESE MARKETS, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM, SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN PERMANENTLY!
TO THESE MARKET OWNERS — GET INTO ANOTHER LINE OF WORK …. WE NEED VEGETABLES, GRAINS, FRUIT, BEANS …..
IF YOU REFUSE AND DENY SHUTTING DOWN DOG & CAT MEAT MARKETS, YOU SHOULD BE PUNISHED — THROWN IN JAIL FOR AT LEAST 5 YRS WITH A PENALTY OF $20,000.
STOP AU MASSACRE PITIE
It is the South Korean Government who has the responsabiliteit to end this gruesome dog meat trade especiallt the was they were killed. I agree that it is a very sick mind of those who consider nothing of it.
Your country is a absolute disgrace, the way animals are treated in the hands of you uneducated people, there is no empathy or compassion at all, it’s abhorrent
Es hora de que este horror cambie, que el trato que reciben estos ángeles, que la ciencia y la convivencia con los humanos a demostrado los leales, inteligentes, intuitivos que son, ademas la manera en que son sacrificados causándoles el mayor y atroz dolor, causándoles stress al ver como delante de ellos sus compañeros son sacrificados y descuartizados y sabiendo que los próximos son ellos, creo que es un síntoma de una sociedad enferma y deberían prestar atención a dicho síntoma, pues se acostumbran a la crueldad y que les impedirá hacerlos a sus semejantes, y un llamado a nuestros países, a nuestros conciudadanos para cambiar nuestra alimentación , que sea cada día libre de dolor y sufrimiento.
God Bless these poor, lonely tortured dogs who only want to be loved and held. Please hold them. Please rescue them.
THIS CRUELTY WILL ONLY STOP WHEN PEOPLE STOP BEING BORN! Less idiots= LESS ABUSERS & less freakin MOUTHS TO FEED!
courriels mails envoyés aussi.
stop it!
Barbaric evil scum…….!
Just sad and discussing. I will never go there!
Impossible to believe how ‘South Korean can do that!!! They do! I cry and my heart cry. Dogs and cats are not born to be threated like this! They are born to give us LOVE and trust! It so terrible i get sick! Pls change to give a better life to dogs and cats!
Stop abusing these poor and inocent animals. They are loyal to humans. How do you believe that dogs and cats are for human consumption? How South Korea, China and the countries who eat dog and cat and abuse them, don’t feel any remorse and compassion? Would you feel heartless if some of your children were abused and killed by other human??? Dogs and cats were born to be loved and care. Still I don’t understand how do you think this is alright…
Please stop this inhumane cruelty.
A nation is judged by how humanely it treats its animals. The world is watching.
There is no justification and no basis for this horrific and barbaric treatment of these innocent feeling creatures.
This is the 21st century. Please do the right thing and end this practice immediately.
this has to stop you are a heartless nation with no pity or compassion. i will have nothing to do with Korea until this stops. until then i wish nothing but misery and suffering to korea
Anywhere where I read about egregious acts of heinous torture against innocent animals it is appalling. I know you cannot condemn a whole nation for the acts of a minority of the population. There is indeed a lot of the same mistreatment of animals right here in the United States taking place daily on factory farms, medical laboratories, farms where crocodiles are skinned alive to make luxury items, etc. It is all equally repulsive and should cease right away. I just hope that the will of the decent, compassionate people of Korea prevail over evil and these animals are given a reprieve because no living being deserves this abominable treatment. Those who engage in these heinous acts will face the wrath of almighty God in form of eternal damnation. Think about it before you torture another innocent cat or dog. God will punish those who needlessly terrorize and abuse His creatures on this planet.
If you do not think brutally killing animals will translate someday to a child or adult brutally killing another human being, you are very mistaken. I will ban any product coming from South Korea. I will protest America doing business with South Korea. This must stop. Stop the killing!!!!!
Stop the killing of dogs!!! Stop eating animals. Korean and china chinese are disgusting bunch of cruel idiots!! Boycott korea!!!!
What we need to do is boycott tourism in South Korea and boycott everything made in that country. They’re disgusting.
Koreans and Chinese are money obsessed, they also maintain they have a family honour. This clearly doesn’t extend to their companion animals. Shaming and cutting off their income supply is the only way to make them change their ways, so people buy no Korean products. This is much easier than products from China which are awash in the West as companies like LG and Hyundai are specifically South Korean. Let the retailers know why you’re not buying their products and word will filter back to source. It has to be worth a try.
I hate Korea and China!!! I wish both countries could be wiped off the face of the earth!! These butchers need to be shot on site! Or better still, hang ’em upside down and skin THEM alive and throw their asses in boiling water and see how they like it! Bastards!!
France
Barbarians in the 21st century.
Please stop gruelity! Thank you very much!
They are not people but veritable demons! They will certainly go to hell, and good riddance. It’s a great pity and a crying shame that they don’t go to hell immediately. They are a burden upon the face of this Earth! Blasted zombies – making everyone else miserable because of their evil existence. I can’t stand this cruelty and violence. People don’t know what to eat anymore. We are supposed to be vegan or vegetarian; that’s the natural diet for humans. This is intolerable and unimaginable suffering of innocent lives. Animals are innocent, the Ancient Scriptures of India say so. Animals do not go to hell, only people do, and rightly so. I wish the earth would open up and swallow them whole, and let the animals live in peace for God’s Sake!
Eine Schande für Korea
Blackhearted sub human people, I wouldn’t go to any of these dusgusting country’s for a free holiday . Selfish hateful country’s hope these county’s gets leveled
la crudeltà nei confronti degli animali è segno di inciviltà, mancanza di sensibilità e rende l’animo umano senza pietà nei confronti degli esseri viventi
