My cousin shared this to me:
FAQ #6 about S. Korean dog meat industry:
“I read somewhere that cats are actually boiled alive to make some kind of medicine. They even have their legs broken so they can’t escape. I can’t believe this is true because it’s so barbaric and cruel. Is it really true?”
Unfortunately, yes. It is a tradition (and some say a very recent “tradition” invented to make money) to perceive that cats are good for rheumatism and other ailments. This probably originated from people observing that cats are agile, and then applying the kind of logic reminiscent of primitive tribes to conclude the ingesting a cat will aid agility.
Of course, it is complete nonsense, but people still eat cat meat or drink the liquid tonic, goyangi soju, made from boiling a cat. The cats are boiled in pressure cookers. (Dog tonic or gae soju is made in a similar way, as is black goat tonic or heuk yomsoh). Cat killings are being done out of public view, so it’s very difficult to investigate the problem. This terrible and cruel abuse cannot be rooted out unless the eating of cat meat and the drinking of the cat tonic are treated as illegal.
Apart from these abuses, cats and not well liked in Korea in general. A lot of superstitions surround them and abuse against them is almost automatic. Few stray cats will approach a human. They know all too well they could be attacked. Perhaps it’s a good thing they live in fear of humans, since they might survive longer that way. KARA members all too commonly find themselves rescuing cats in distress.
