Malbok is one of the three hottest days in the Korean lunar calendar, when traditional health food which includes dog meat are eaten to rejuvenate the body and increase stamina. While animal rights activists have condemned the consumption of dog meat as cruel, it is still a popular delicacy for some in South Korea, as well in some other Asian countries. [Photo/Agencies]
