The current status of actor Lee Yong-nyeo (65), who is living in a dog after a fire at a stray dog ​​shelter in operation, was revealed.

TV Chosun’s’Star Documentary My Way’, which aired on the 15th, revealed the current status of the life of Lee Yong-yeo, a new stealer actor and the godmother of the abandoned dog, through a trailer for the broadcast on Monday on the 22nd.

Lee Yong-nyeo lost her place to live in a fire at the Pocheon Abandoned Dog Shelter, which he runs, last month. Lee Yong-nyeo recalled that time, “the black smoke came up steadily.”

Following this, the recent status of Lee Yong-nyeo living with abandoned dogs in the silk was revealed. When Oh Hyun-kyung asked, “You are sleeping here again today?” Lee Yong-nyeo replied, “If you put a newspaper on it, the moisture will come up less.”

Lee Yong-nyeo said, “With a feeling of apology… I want to protect them until they’re done.”

Earlier, on the 28th of last month, around 0:10 am, a fire broke out at the abandoned dog shelter for a young girl located in Shinbuk-myeon, Pocheon-si. There was no human injury, but 8 abandoned dogs died, and some of the dog’s silk, Lee’s living space, and household items were lost. Property damage of 2,961 million won (estimated by the fire department) was incurred.

At the time, Lee Yong-nyeo said, “I had about 60 dogs, but the stray dogs that I had been protecting for a long time because they could not be adopted were sacrificed this time. .

Since then, it is known that Lee Yong-yeo is living in a silk shed with dogs in a situation where it is difficult to carry out a minimum of daily life due to the burned out living space and home appliances, and a fundraising campaign has been held online.

Lee Yong-nyeo has been protecting abandoned dogs for 13 years in Hanam, Gyeonggi-do under private expenses, and then moved to Pocheon four years ago to take care of abandoned dogs.
