On the 26th, it was revealed that the couple who were killed in the incident had handed over their pet dog, Doon-yi, to a new family.
According to Kara, Doon-yi, who turned 7 this year, was a victim of the Jeju Air crash.
The dog was raised by a married couple who had returned to their hometown and had been raised since it was a puppy. After the accident, it was left at the couple's home in Chanseong County, South Jeolla Province, and the family has been keeping it in Muan even during the funeral.
She took care of the dog while traveling between the international airport and Jangseong County every day, and requested assistance from the Jangseong County Office, which led to Kara's rescue on the 10th of last month. After that, Jangseong County Office heard from the family, who were worried about finding a new owner for Doon-i, and
The Seonggun Office and Kara began to support Doon-i so that she could be adopted by a new family. With the help of many people, Doon-i was adopted by a mansion in Gimpo City, Gyeonggi Province on the 25th.
After rescuing Doong-yi, Kara accepted his adoption application, reviewed his documents, and consulted with potential adopters, and today, Doong-yi was handed over to his new family.
Doon-yi's new owner, Choi Seong-yeon (48), said, "I was worried, but I'm glad that Doon-yi seems to be adapting well."
Before adopting Doon-Yi, Choi visited Kara's shelter twice and met Doon-Yi. "Doon-Yi was so active that it didn't seem like she was seven years old.
"From the moment we met, she showed off her belly and was adorable," she told Yonhap News. Choi had previously lost her dog, Woo Yang-i, and was suffering from pet loss syndrome.
Then she heard about Doon-Yi on the news and decided to take her in. "I thought that Doon-Yi and I were in the same situation, both of us losing our families suddenly," said Choi.
I was scared of losing Doon again and thought I would never own a pet again, but for some reason, I was touched by Doon-yi," said Choi.
I think it will also put the couple at ease."
