As we scroll through the news, we are often reminded of the fragility of life. A recent tragedy in South Korea serves as a sad example of this. The Jeju Air Flight 112 disaster claimed the lives of 179 individuals, including all nine members of a devoted family. Among the wreckage and devastation, there was one loyal soul left behind - their beloved dog, Pudding.
Little did Pudding know that his family would never return home after their trip to Thailand. They had gone to celebrate their owner's 80th birthday, but unfortunately, fate had other plans. As the plane crashed into a wall at Muan International Airport, only two cabin crew members survived. The rest, including Pudding's owner, his wife, two daughters, son-in-law, and three grandchildren, perished in the fiery accident.
As the news spread throughout the small village in Yeonggwang County, Pudding was seen wandering aimlessly between his family's home and the village center. It was as if he was searching for his loved ones, unaware of their tragic fate. The locals, already grieving the loss of their neighbors, were heartbroken to see the loyal dog in such a state. According to South Korea's animal rights group, Care, Pudding seemed to be staring at passing cars and buses, hoping to catch a glimpse of his family.
In a heartwarming post on Instagram, Care shared their encounter with Pudding, who was sitting on the steps in front of the roadway party, waiting anxiously. The dog's eyes were filled with confusion and grief, mirroring the emotions of those who lost their loved ones in the disaster. The villagers, moved by Pudding's loyalty, fed him out of sympathy until Care stepped in to rescue him.
Realizing that it was not safe for Pudding to roam the village without a caretaker, Care took him in and provided him with the love and care he needed. They are now looking for a loving family to adopt Pudding and give him a new home. This loyal dog's story is reminiscent of the legendary Hachiko, an Akita dog in Japan who waited every day at a train station for his deceased owner to return. Pudding's loyalty and love for his family will always be remembered, even though they are no longer with us. Let us hope that he finds a new family who will cherish him just as much.
