Lee Hyori speaks up on the issue of cow starvation in Korea



Singer Lee Hyori isn't just an advocate of abandoned animals, but for mistreated ones as well.

On the afternoon of January 14th, Hyori tweeted angrily about the issue of starving cows. "People might say what's the big deal over cows starving to death when people are starving too, but isn't there the option of putting them down or something?"

"There was an image of a cow so starved that it only had the strength to lie down and lick the dirty floor. It broke my heart. Isn't there some kind of action we could take so that the farmer can live and the cow at least not starve to death?"

Lee Hyori is concerned with fact that the price of cow feed has skyrocketed, whereas the price of beef has plummeted. As a result, farmers cannot take care of their cows properly and are forced to let them starve.

Netizens who saw her tweet responded, "If we just cared about our cows half as much as the Americans care about their cows, everything would be fine", "I feel so bad for these cows. Starving to death...", "We need a plan, but what is everyone doing?"
