[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Two large dogs bit an elderly man in his 80s, causing serious injuries. In response, actor Kim Min-kyo, presumed to be the owner of the dogs, changed his SNS account to private.

According to a report by YTN on the 9th, an 88-year-old man was attacked by two celebrity-owned dogs while working in his garden in Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi Province.

At the time, the victim sustained wounds on his thighs and both arms and was urgently transported to the hospital. The victim stayed in the intensive care unit but is now reported to be in improved condition.

According to testimonies from local residents, the two large dogs jumped over the fence impulsively and were not wearing muzzles or leashes at the time.

Some have claimed that the house shown in the YTN report video is the same as the one Kim Min-kyo revealed on a broadcast program. Additionally, Sports World reported on the 10th that the dog owner is Kim Min-kyo.

Currently, Kim Min-kyo has set his Instagram account to private. Therefore, there is no official statement at this time.

Meanwhile, Kim Min-kyo appeared with these dogs on Channel A's "Man Who Feeds Dogs" Season 2 in 2018.
