Singer Hong Jin-young shared his warm relationship with an owl he accidentally encountered in the middle of the night, revealing a heartwarming story that saved a small life.

On the 8th, Hong Jin-young revealed the touching story he experienced in the middle of the night through his SNS account

First, he said"I always came out to go home after finishing the performance and a late meeting in the office, but there is a small owl sitting on the car of the CEO who met with me."




Then "At first, I thought it would fly away soon because it was amazing, but when I got closer, it looked so bad. I was wondering if it was a dehydration symptom, so I opened the water and took it carefully, but the owl was surprised and flapped its wings toward the road, and I couldn't fly properly, crawled in the middle of the road, and stopped and stopped."

Hong Jin-young said, `I can't reach the wildlife protection center because it's dawn, and I'm worried that I'll get hit by a car if I leave it on the road, so I decided to take him to the hospital.' `But even though I called more than 20 animal hospitals at 24:00 in downtown Seoul, everyone said it was difficult to treat owls. I don't know how relieved I was when the hospital called me with the feeling that it was the last time and said "Bring me over."

Fortunately, X-rays showed no significant abnormalities at the hospital, and the owl, which received oxygen therapy and glucose treatment, gradually recovered its energy. Hong Jin-young said "The teacher said it was probably a hypoglycemic shock."

However, after completing the treatment, Hong Jin-young was once again worried about the handover problem. "I originally tried to contact the wildlife protection center in the morning to send an owl, but when I came out of the hospital, I said, "It's a natural monument, what if I protect it wrong…"' I was worried about it, so I called Seongdong-gu Office just in case. Thankfully, he'll come to pick me up"I don't know how relieved I am that you gave me an answer."

Hong Jin-young, who handed over the owl safely around 5 a.m., said he was deeply moved by this experience. He wrote "There is only one reason to write this. I am deeply grateful to the director who was willing to take care of the treatment for a small life and the Seongdong-gu Office for responding quickly. Thanks to this, my precious life could be safely protected. We sincerely thank you."

Meanwhile, Hong Jin-young released '13579 (composer Ver.)' in May.
