Jang Woo Hyuk is the newest 1st-generation idol to actively show his support for animals’ rights.
On December 19th, singer Jang Woo Hyuk revealed his CARE (Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth) photo shoot pictorials, which was done in an effort to further promote adoption of abandoned animals.
According to CARE, their campaign efforts have helped increase the percentage of total animal adoptions, however, 80% of the animals being adopted are all full-breed dogs, as adopters still prefer them over mixed breeds.
The singer who has personally raised a Shih Tzu named ‘Ppo Ppo’ for the past ten years has contacted CARE, as he was interested in doing something meaningful for the abandoned dogs out there.
For his pictorial, Jang Woo Hyuk posed with abused dogs who were rescued from puppy mills, which made the photo shoot that much more meaningful.
After the shoot was over, Jang Woo Hyuk remarked, “There are a lot of abandoned dogs that are waiting to be adopted into a warm and loving home. It’s unfortunate that adopters still prefer full-breeds. Dogs are creatures you ‘adopt’, and not ‘buy’. I hope that people who are ready to adopt dogs as a new member of their family will take and care for these animals.”
