Following the “Devil Equus” incident covered by koreaBANG last week that saw a live dog tied to the back of a car, a similar case of alleged animal abuse is gaining public attention, this time under the nickname “Devil Beast” after, on Monday the 30th April, a car was witnessed in Busan driving around with a dog tied by its leash to the back of the car.
Last week’s incident caused quite a stir on the Korean internet, leading to outcry from pop star Lee Hyori and even prompting a demonstration by the “Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth” group on Saturday the 28th on Gwanghwamun Plaza in Seoul. Despite this, the incident was since found to be an unintentional and unfortunate accident and the police have cleared the offending driver of all charges.

However, in the case of the “Devil Beast” it would seem that the lead had been attached to the back of the car more deliberately. The case has been submitted to the police for investigation, but netizens keep calling for the animal protection law to be strengthened.

Comments from Nate:
"This photo shows the reason why we have to tighten animal protection laws. Were this in another country, he would get 2 years in prison. We have to tighten the animal protection law as soon as possible."
"We should make the owner’s face public…"
"You know whether a country is a developed country by looking at how animals and women are treated there…."
"In a country where if you sexually assault a child, you only get 3years and 6 months…… do you think they will care about animal protection….we still have a long way to go……………."
"The car owner should be caught, tied by a leash to the car and dragged like this too…"
"What kind of excuse will the car owner give now? The dog was too big to fit into the car? -_-"
