It’s International Dog Day! Here are 7 K-pop stars who have the cutest bond with their fur babies
There’s one thing that K-pop idols love more than their fans—their dogs.
And why wouldn’t they? A dog’s sweet face and vibrant personality are enough to brighten up anyone’s day, especially for K-pop stars who work in a high-pressure environment and deal with the stress of being under the public eye.
Dogs are not uncommon in the K-pop industry. And sometimes, they catch more attention than their famous owners. What makes it heartwarming is that K-pop idols don’t mind them getting more love.
To celebrate International Dog Day, here’s a look at K-pop idols who have the cutest relationships with their doggos.
EXO’s Sehun and Vivi
EXO’s Sehun has always been vocal about his love for his Bichon Frise Vivi. When he’s not promoting solo or with the boy group, he spends time with his fluffy fur baby by going on walks or chilling around. Sehun also wears his love for Vivi on his sleeve (literally) through customized hats, hoodies, and sneakers. So cute!
BLACKPINK’s Rosé and Hank
BLACKPINK’s Rosé opened her heart and home to a mixed-breed puppy named Hank in December 2020. The puppy was staying at an animal shelter after he was abandoned by his previous owner. We hope that Hank is happier under Rosé’s tender love and care.
IZ*ONE’s Yujin and Azzo
Former IZ*ONE member Yujin is a proud owner of her fluffy Toy Poodle Azzo. Her fur baby has been her constant companion from her teens to adulthood, that they practically grew together. Aww!
BTS’ V and Yeontan
BTS’ V is incredibly close to his black-and-tan Pomeranian named Yeontan, who currently lives with his parents. This adorable pooch always followed V wherever he went. This fluffy doggo is close to BTS as well, and the members treat him like their own pet.
Red Velvet’s Joy and Haetnim
Red Velvet’s Joy is a loving pet mom to her adopted puppy Haetnim, the apple of the K-pop star’s eye. Joy has always been a dog lover at heart since she loves to volunteer at abandoned dog shelters in her free time.
TWICE’s Momo and Boo
Momo is one of the many dog lovers in the K-pop girl group TWICE. A proud mom to a Norwich Terrier called Boo, she named the doggo after her favorite character in the 2001 film Monsters Inc.
Chungha and Bambi
Solo artist Chungha’s fur baby Bambi is popular among her fans since she loves to tag along with her activities. In 2017, Bambi gave birth to three puppies named Dakgol, Bamtol, and Dodo. One of them was adopted by the soloist’s manager. So heartwarming!
