  "summary": "According to Rep. Yoon Joon-byeong of the ruling Democratic Party of Korea, over 600 pet-related accidents have been reported in Korea since 2023, resulting in 603 casualties, including three deaths and 14 serious injuries. The majority of these incidents, 599, were dog bites, while one involved a cyclist and a dog without a leash. Despite the significant number of casualties, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has not allocated a budget to prevent or respond to such accidents, prompting Yoon to demand that the government take action and develop effective safety rules.",
