Lovelyz's hiatus, members Jisoo and Jiae had a special gathering. The historical first meeting between Jisoo's dog Rocket and Jiae's dog Kongi went through. The 'Passionate Guy' Rocket and the chic pet model Kongi, beautiful dogs that resemble their owners, stole attention.
Jisoo and Jiae of girl group Lovelyz are each raising Rocket and Kongi. Jisoo and Jiae, who are living in a dorm, first met with their own pets that were brought over from their family homes. AThe girls' attentions were stolen by their pets that they had only seen in their phones; Rocket, who boasts great sociability and followed around those whom he had never met before and Kongie with her doll-like 'Visual God'.
"I knew that she's a pet model, but seeing her in real life, she's really pretty. My Rocket should've lost some weight," Jisoo said, laughing. Jiae, seeing Rocket followed her around, said, "I think he likes me more than Kongi does." As if he understood, Rocket came closer and wagged his tail, sparking laughter.
Girl group Lovelyz is known as 'Puppy Fans'. They adopted and raised puppies with sad stories named 'Candy', 'Jelly' and 'Love' from a shelter through the show 'The Man Who Feeds the Dog' in the past.
Jisoo and Jiae said hello to Candy first, who were naturally curious of people.
"Candy is doing very well. The director of our company adopted her and is raising her, and she's become healthier than before. Sometimes he brought her with him to the company or broadcast stations so we see her from time to time. The director's twin daughters take her for a walk a lot so she became healthier. At that time, we heard that it seemed like she wouldn't live for long, but [now] we hear that she'll live for a long time."
Jisoo and Jiae grew up with puppies since they were little. To Jisoo and Jiae, puppies are another member of their families. There are many times where they have to be away due to promotion, but [their puppies] are the existence that they always miss. "Some of our members raise pets in their homes. We want to show [our pets'] pretty sides as if they are our own children. We normally talk about our pets a lot and show off pictures as well," they both said.
Jisoo's dog, Rocket, is a 3-year-old Chihuahua. The two puppies that her family was raising at home passed away. Rocket was the new family member that her father, who felt empty, brought home. Jisoo clearly remembered her first meeting with Rocket.
"I pitied him, he looked very down and lethargic. They said that the perforation on his cranium belatedly closed, so he was not in good health. He had diarrhea and fevers a lot. When I saw him for the first time, he was really tiny that he could fit in the palm of my hand. He was as light as air, but at some point, he had gained weight and weighed at 3 kg. Some time ago, the vet said that he's bordering on obese, so [now] he's eating cabbage instead of dog food. He's very healthy now (Laughs)."
Jiae's pet Kongi is a 3-year-old Bichon, the same aged as Rocket. With her fluffy, cotton candy-like milky white fur, she boasts the perfect 'Doll Visual'. Kongi is currently working as an actual, respectable pet model. "A while ago, she became the model for the Mo Chicken brand. She shot a chicken commercial first before I did," Jiae said, showing her jealousy.
"We also raised a Maltese at home, then my sister brought Kongi home 3 years ago. When I first saw Kongi, she was small like a bean (kong), so her name is Kongi. Even now, she's really small when she's wet. This is actually all fur (Laughs). I'm the youngest, but Kongi is called the youngest daughter at home. Even my parents' profile pictures are of the puppies. Rather than being jealous, I was more flustered."
As pretty as Jisoo and Jiae's puppies are, they understand that other puppies are also existence that should be loved. Since they were little, puppies have been the precious existence that they grew up with like friends and family. That was why, while taking care of the puppies that were rescued from a burning puppy mill in 'The Man Who Feeds the Dog', they learned more about pain and responsibility.
"They were puppies who were very sick at that time, so we worried about them. We worked harder to take care of them and we saw it again. Even when the members were busy due to their schedules, we switched teams every 3 days to feed and give the puppies their medicines. We took care of them with love." (Jiae)
"I knew that there are a lot of abandoned dogs, but I was very shocked about the puppy mill. Dogs also have something called 'Dog Rights' but I felt bad that they were caged in the factory. That was when I thought that there should be a lot of interest surrounding the protection of abandoned dogs." (Jisoo)
These two people have a lot of concern for abandoned dogs. Lovelyz has even volunteered at a dog shelter with their fans. Through that relationship, they heard that their fans send dog food to the shelter even now.
"Puppies have always been by my side since I was little, and it's been natural for me to live with them," Jiae said, emphasizing her sense of responsibility. She said, "I think it will be better for people who want to raise puppies to raise abandoned dogs rather than buy them." As expected, Jisoo said, "I've seen an article where a puppy was thrown away in a plastic bag. I get angry whenever I see articles about abuse. I hope you will pay attention to abandoned dogs."
"I think we need to strengthen our laws regarding pet dogs and cats. They're so easily bought and thrown away. I hope they can think about how hard it is for the kids who were abandoned. I think it'll be great if only people who have a sense of responsibility and can raise the pets until the end are allowed to raise pets. I also want to volunteer for abandoned dogs. There are many people who buy dogs, so I want to contribute to remove the 'buy' mindset."
Jiae and Jisoo said, "When we have the chance and the environment is set, we want to have an abandoned dog as our new family member," conveying their 'lovely' hearts.
"Doesn't he look like me so much?"
Lovelyz Jisoo's pet dog, Rocket, was armed with sparkling big eyes, gaze with a lot of aegyo, and 'Top Class Cuteness'. His sociability is also good. He threw himself to people whom he had seen for the first time pretty well and he would follow them around. "Rocket likes people more than dogs. He's going to hog your love," Jisoo said while looking at him endearingly.
Lovelyz's hiatus, members Jisoo and Jiae did a special activity. With her dog Rocket in her arms, Jisoo's attention was stolen as soon as the chic model Kongi appeared. "I knew that she's a pet model, but seeing her in real life, she's really pretty. My Rocket should've lost some weight," Jisoo said, jokingly and with a laugh. Rocket followed his same-aged friend, Kongi, around, being called "Passionate Guy", sparking laughter.
Jisoo's pet dog Rocket is a 3-year-old Chihuahua. The two puppies that her family was raising at home passed away. Rocket was the new family member that her father, who felt empty, brought home. Jisoo clearly remembered her first meeting with Rocket.
"I pitied him, he looked very down and lethargic. He was sick a lot so I was worried for him. I heard that the perforation on his cranium belatedly closed, so he was not in good health. He had diarrhea and fevers a lot. We took care of him with love and now he's very healthy," Jisoo said, smiling.
When she first met him, Rocket was so small that he could fit in the palm of her hand, but now, he weighs 3 kg. "He hid his fat with his clothes," she said, and she felt the 'unexpected' heaviness when she hugged Rocket.
"He was as light as air, but at some point, he gained weight. He only likes food, and if there's something to eat, he will go and look for it. His gluttony is strong," Jisoo said. "A few days ago, the vet said he's bordering on obese and that he needs to watch his diet. So he's eating cabbage instead of dog food." We even asked the thing that we were most curious about from the Pet Tarot: how is Rocket feeling when he's on a diet? It's also Jisoo's biggest concern.
"He's fat," she said, jokingly, but Rocket is cuteness in itself in Jisoo's eyes. "Rocket is cute starting from his appearance. I've heard that he looks like me. I have big eyes and big ears, so I heard a lot that I looked like Chihuahua since I was little. I wondered if dogs resemble their owners," Jisoo said while looking at Rocket.
Jisoo's pet dog Rocket's name overlaps with Lovelyz's girl group junior, Rocket Punch. Jisoo, who explained that she took the name from a cute criminal in the movie 'Guardians of the Galaxy', said, while laughing, "My Rocket came first before Rocket Punch. He's the original Rocket."
While talking about Rocket and another dog that she raises at her family home, Woozu, Jisoo said, "They give me strength." They are the precious existence that comforts her and shows her brightness.
"There was once where I had a hard time and came home crying. Woozu came to me, licked my tears and followed me wherever I went, and that made me smile. Even without saying anything, she understands and I feel comforted. It's not just me, I felt that I was really comforted and cared for. Rocket was different then, he was lying down and resting. Rocket is a boy, so he's like that. I think his ability to share his feelings is a bit behind (Laughs). He was ignoring me but even so, it was cute."
Even in the middle of the interview, Rocket was agitated. He looked like he was full of energy, but actually, his legs were a little uncomfortable. Jisoo, who has been raising dogs since she was little, would then take care of Rocket meticulously.
"The Long Haired Chihuahua breed's legs are weak, so they have a big chance of getting dislocated. Rocket has a lot of energy, so I'm worried that his hind legs are even worse. Woozu likes doing exercise and she has a firm body, so if they go for a walk together, the difference in their speed is very apparent. Rocket sits down and holds on as he walks and it's hard for him, so he'll ask to be picked up. So at home, I try to have them exercise in a pool special for dogs."
Jisoo expressed her wish to do various abandoned dogs project with her extraordinary love for pets. The Lovelyz members and their fans had volunteered at an abandoned dogs shelter together, adopted dogs with sad stories on 'The Man Who Feeds the Dog', and her interest grew bigger.
Jisoo said, "I want to do volunteer works at abandoned dogs shelters and try a role to let the world know regarding the problem about abandoned dogs." With her overflowing aegyo and reliable sense of responsibility, she was the best older sister and mother.
She doesn't act strange standing in front of a camera. With her chic gaze, the doll-like visual, Kongi, stares into the camera lens. A perfect fit, Lovelyz's Jiae and Kongi's chemistry is shining. Even when you didn't ask for it, the scenery where they are together will soon become a painting.
Lovelyz's hiatus, Jiae brought her pet dog, Kongi, over and went on a special day out. Member Jisoo was with her dog, Rocket. The historical(?) first meeting of the two pets. The chic pet model Kongi that looks like her owner and of course, Jisoo's Rocket, stole attentions.
Member Jisoo said, "I knew that Kongi is a pet model, but seeing her in real life, she's really pretty. My Rocket should've lost some weight," praising Kongi's visual. Even when Kongi tagged along Jisoo pretty well, she ran away when Rocket came closer because she was unfamiliar with him.
Jiae said while laughing, "Kongi's social skills are especially strong towards people. She feels unfamiliar with dogs and is haughty, but with humans, she tries to receive their love."
Jiae's dog Kongi is a 3-year-old Bichon. With her fluffy, cotton candy-like milky white fur, she boasts the perfect 'Doll Visual'. Jiae said, "She's round like a bean (kong), thus her name is Kongi. She has the teddy bear cut now, but when she does a helmet cut, she really looks like a bean."
Her appearance is different, because she's currently working as a respectable pet model. "A while ago, she became the model for the Mo Chicken brand. She shot a chicken commercial first before I did," Jiae said, laughing.
"We raised a Maltese at home, but my sister brought Kongi home 3 years ago. When I first saw her, she was small like a bean. Even now, she's so small when she's wet. This is actually all fur. (Laughs). I'm the youngest, but they call Kongi the youngest daughter in the house. Even my parents' profile pictures are of the puppies. Rather than being jealous, I was more flustered."
To Jiae too, Kongi is love. "Her visual is so pretty. She's even pretty among other Bichons. She looks good in her clothes, in photos, and she's smart. She's a dog that has everything," Jiae said, showing her endless love.
Jiae grew up with dogs since she was little. Now, because she's living in a dorm due to Lovelyz's promotion, she can't be together [with Kongi] every day, but she always hears how Kongi is from her family. "Some of our members raise pets in their homes. We want to show [our pets'] pretty sides as if they are our own children. We normally talk about our pets a lot and show off pictures as well," Jiae and Jisoo said. "I saw her [again] for the first time during new year. Seeing her felt nice," Jiae said, not looking away from Kongi.
"I adjust the time where I'll come home and ask my dad to meet me. Kong will drag her leash and goes to my dad. It's so fascinating and I think that she's smart. The fact that the two dogs that I raise at home remember me makes me so happy. I was busy for promotion and couldn't see them for more than 6 months, but I'm thankful that the puppies remember me."
To Jiae, Kongi's existence is naturally a family member. "I think we're each other's family member. The thing I dislike the most is being bored, but it never happens. When I'm lying down by myself, she's by my side. She would lick me and ask me to play," she said as she looked lovingly at Kongi.
We're curious of what the 3-year-old Kongi thinks. Jisoo said that she wants to meet professional dog trainer, Kang Hyung Wook, and Jiae said, "I definitely want to meet him too." She continued with shining eyes, "The dog at home and Kongi don't get along well. Kong sneaks up on Baby, the one at home, and Baby feels annoyed. I want to ask him why they're not getting along and what I have to do to make them get along."
