Dog owner: I'm just stunned and startled. There's nothing I can do... Come and see for yourselves.
With startled feelings, the place where he guides the production crew is...
There's one white-furred dog found.
His hind leg seems to be injured as it won't touch the ground.
What's even more surprising is that...
Her face is terribly injured...
One eye protruding outwards
and even broken fangs...
The dog seems to be severely injured.
Dog owner: When I wake up in the morning, there are three dogs.
When I am cleaning up the poop and giving food, one of them is missing.
Sometimes the rope is untied, so if she didn't go off far...
I'd thought she'd be near the house somewhere.
After doing the house chores for around 3 hours...
The youngest one was crying and yelling. And I asked what's wrong.
He said the jindo dog came back but its eyeball is protruding out.
And the leg has been broken, bleeding and all...
Jindo dog who thought be gone momentarily 'cause the leash has been loose...
The fact is he showed up in a such wretched appearance...
Dog owner: I was so upset...
Dog owner: I wanted to take her to the hospital, but she won't get in the car.
Treatment is urgent, so he tried to take her to the hospital fast, but...
She wouldn't get in the car.
To check the Jindo dog's condition, the vet came in person...
Approaches the dog carefully to check her condition.
For such a sensitive dog, he injects sedatives to calm her down.
Then waits for her to get drowsy...
He then checks every spot of the Jindo dog's body.
But the part to be most careful about is her protruding eyes.
Vet: Right now, she feels severe pain and when time passes since the injured area is shown open like that, once infected it will be more severe.
As urgent as it is, after performing emergency treatments at the site...
They ten decided to take the dog to the hospital.
Please we hope that the condition isn't as serious.
You'll be okay, Jindo.
Jindo screams from extreme anxiety and pain.
After waiting for her to calm down...
They then decided to proceed with emergency surgery.
Han Jae-Woong, Vet / Once the eye surgery is done, we'll proceed with working on the broken jaw.
We'll proceed with performing surgery for a fracture in the mandible.
Jindo's surgery begins
The man's tears keep falling out of worry.
After a long surgery time...
Crew: Is the surgery over? Han Jae-Woong, Vet: Yes.
Han Jae-Woong, Vet: As for the jawbone, it is inflamed. The chin and the eyes have the most problematic inflammation.
As for the inflammation, I think it can get treated to some extent through internal treatments.
Right now, the broken jaw has been restored and the teeth were saved.
Thankfully, the surgery went well, but...
How and why did such terrible things happen to the Jindo dog?
Possibly, when the leash was loose,
Did she end up in a car accident?
Han Jae-Woong, Vet: In general, if the dog had ended up in a car accident, the wound would've been focused on one side.
For this dog, her jawbone is fractured here, but the cheekbone is fractured on the other side.
To say that a car accident caused this...
The Jindo dog had multiple fractures.
Han Jae-Woong, Vet / For Jindo dogs, their eye sockets are deep inside.
Their eyes are small too. So a normal shock wouldn't cause their eyes to fall out easily.
Some say it's like a baseball swing.
It's possible for the eys to fall out if a strong man hits the dog with a baseball swing with a wooden stick or club.
But I'm not 100% sure, but I think that this happened on purpose
through such occurrence.
Then, will the Jindo be shown the day before the accident from the dashcam of the parked car?
We've checked, but couldn't find footage of the dog.
Then, would the locals know of something?
Resident #1: I can't hear anything from here 'cause it's too far away.
Resident #2: I couldn't hear anything. Producer: Not even a whimper? Resident #2: No, I didn't hear such thing.
Criminal Psychology Specialist: In this case, since the dog showed up with such a severe state,
There's a high possibility that the locals might've heard something, but there was no one who's heard of it
Then, to move the dog, there's a high possibility that the person might've used a car.
If that's the case, the person might've moved to some other place other than this town.
Then the person might've abused and abandoned the dog there.
The fact that the dog didn't want to get in the car...
She might've gotten trauma caused by events from that day.
Resident #3: From how I see it if the dog was caught by a dog trader she would've been stuck there.
I think they might've done that on purpose.
Criminal Psychology Specialist: Judging from the current situation,
if the person was trying to kill the dog, he/she might've done it while the dog's tied up.
But considering that the dog is back...
Rather than trying to kill the dog, the dog might've been used for reliving anger or stress.
So one can't leave out the possibility that the dog was kidnapped on purpose, abused, and released deliberately.
Unable to find physical evidence.
So we can only speculate what might have happened.
For the Jindo dog, it must've been a dreadful day she wishes to forget...
We've reported the case for the police to investigate.
Police station officer: There are no witnesses right now. The village is where there are hardly any cars or people passing by.
There are currently no security cameras, dashcams, or anything like that at the moment.
We're looking for evidence, but I think it'll be difficult.
Only the Jindo dog knows the truth of what occurred that day.
The man visits the hospital to check on Jindo.
Dog owner: Is Jindo here?
Dog owner: Jindo! Oh my! Jindo!
As if 'Jindo' was waiting for the man the whole time...
Dog owner: Jindo! Jindo! Come here!
Jindo greets the man wagging her tail ♡
Dog owner: Do you recognize your pop's voice?
Dog owner: Oh my, it's so nice to see you.
She expresses her feelings by wagging her tail quite excitedly :'(
Dog owner: Eat this.
The man makes sure she eats.
And as if she knows his feelings,
She finishes the meal in front of him.
Han Jae-Woong, Vet / Her injuries can be treated through surgery, but
But her wounded heart and the fear she has not being able to trust anyone...
That will remain for a long time and will continue to distress Jindo...
During then, the guardian should pay more attention to healing her feelings mentally than
focusing on treating her physical injuries.
To mend her broken heart, the only way to fix it is through love.
Dog owner: I will have to do my best to make her feel comfortable as possible.
I will best to take care of her well under my name.
Jindo, forget the painful past, and we wish for you to have a life full of happy memories only ♥
