On the 23rd, former President Moon posted a message titled "Jjingjjingi has gone to another world" on the community page of Pyeongsan Bookstore, where he serves as the bookstore keeper. He began by saying, "(Jjingjjingi's age) was twenty years old, which is about 100 years in human age, so he lived a very long life."



Former President Moon explained, "For several days, he repeatedly failed to relieve himself inside the bathroom and instead did so outside, and his appearance became more haggard, giving me a premonition. Then, suddenly, as if falling asleep, he closed his eyes forever." He added, "Jjingjjingi, who brought joy as a companion to our family for many years, thank you and farewell."

Born in January 2005, Jjingjjingi lived as a stray cat before being adopted by Moon Dahye, former President Moon's daughter. Due to circumstances such as studying abroad, former President Moon took responsibility for raising him. Moon raised Jjingjjingi at his private residence and brought him to the Blue House after being elected president. On February 15, he also announced on his social media that he had lost his pet dog Tori, saying, "He left peacefully while all our family was watching."
