KOREA" released the cover image of SOOBIN on the 27th through their official SNS.
The project was held to commemorate the 33rd anniversary of the publication of "KOREA," and featured 12 stars and 22 pets.
In the photoshoot, SOOBIN was photographed with three quarantine detection dogs who are waiting for foster parents after retirement. In the photoshoot, SOOBIN is wearing a gray coat and glasses, perfect for autumn, and is soft and gentle.
It gave off a sophisticated impression. The natural interaction with the dog added to the warm atmosphere. In an interview conducted after the photoshoot, SOOBIN said,
"I think these cute and charming dogs will be loved wherever they go. They have dedicated their youth to their country and worked hard until now.
However, as he is not young, I hope he will find a family that can take responsibility for him until the end." He continued, "Animals' time is much shorter than humans. If you cannot convey your feelings fully at that time,
"You will be left with regrets when you reach a point later where you can no longer love them. Whether it's a human or an animal, I hope you will fully express your feelings when you are with them," he added.
He revealed that he had dreamed of living with a dog since he was a child.
"Having them comes with a tremendous responsibility.
I feel like I'm not ready yet, so I'm being more careful.
If there are people out there who are struggling like me, I hope they will think carefully and with great caution before welcoming it into their lives."
