Korean host Jeon Hyun-moo spends his birthday volunteering at a stray dog shelter

Korean television host Jeon Hyun-moo spent his birthday on November 10 volunteering at a stray dog shelter, with no filming scheduled. The shelter, Banramu, a pet complex cultural space, said on social media that day: "Jeon Hyun-moo came to volunteer on his birthday. He came for personal volunteering without any separate filming schedule. Since he was here, we asked him to help with adoption promotion photos for the dogs, and he gladly agreed."

Cleaning kennels, walking dogs, photographing four dogs awaiting adoption

According to the shelter, Jeon spent the day cleaning kennels and walking dogs at its Healing Park, and took adoption photos for four dogs waiting for families: retired guide dog Pyeongjeong, retired search-and-rescue dog Siro, Lua, a dog rescued from a breeding facility in Hwaseong, and Pupa, a stray dog. Known for resembling a Shih Tzu, he also posed for photos with Shih Tzus; photography is his hobby, and he took the adoption pictures himself.

This was not a one-off gesture: Jeon has volunteered with stray dogs for years and sponsored their medical expenses, and has also helped animals rescued from the Uljin wildfire site. Recently he adopted Soonmu, a puppy rescued from a breeding facility, bringing the dog to his family home. Sources: StarNews Korea; Banramu social media.
