I'm interested, and I don't know anything about South Korean meat production.
To be clear, I'm not arguing that people should eat dogs. I'm arguing that meat production tends to be horrific, and treating dogs any differently is ignoring some major issues in favor of human bias. I do know something about US factory farming, and it's horrific: cruel to animals, environmentally unconscionable, and a social justice issue for humans working in and living near plants (for example, hog farms in North Carolina). I'm not sure how much worse dog farming could be. We just have more sympathy for them.
From what I've heard the dog meat industry is horrendous even by meat industry standards, and in many places it's believed that if they suffer as they die it makes the dog meat taste better so they are often purposefully tortured and killed in a brutal fashion in order to make them suffer more. I don't like any animals being mistreated in the meat industry even if they're an animal provide food, but the dog meat industry is particularly bad.
