President Yoon is just trying to grab cheap optics wins, considering he’s an overt fascist that has taken numerous Ls. Banning dog meat does very little, it was already pretty much an eradicated food staple and only harms the lowest classes who had to rely on the cheapest forms of meat to sustain themselves. Everyone who could afford better meat was already only eating it.
Functionally, there’s no difference between a dog, a pig, or a cow, when it comes to life value. There isn’t an economic or moral reason to just ban dog meat other than to make the fascist admin look better.
