“Gamja was my everything”… Goo Hye-sun is trying to recover from “pet loss” syndrome 

Goo Hye-sun recently delivered the sad news about her pet dog, which was the reason why she gained weight.

Actress Goo Hye-sun stood in front of the camera for the first time after a long time. She recently attended the 27th ‘Chunsa International Film Festival’ held at Sowol Art Hall in Seongdong-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of September 30th. On this day, she attended the awards ceremony as a film director, wearing a plaid mini suit and a fedora hat. She showed off her fair skin and beautiful visuals but has gained weight a little bit. Aware of this problem, the actress posted an explanation on her SNS after the award ended.

Goo Hye-sun used to be the ulzzang icon of the Korean entertainment industry and she is currently ctive as an actress, musician, painter, and film director. Her mention of ‘a lot of things on her mind’ in her explanation was probably her recent loss of her own dog, Potato.

In the middle of last month, Goo Hye-sun revealed that her golden retriever dog, Gamja, had passed away. At that time, she posted photos and videos of him on SNS and said, “Gamja, an angel, my everything, went to heaven a month ago. It rained heavily last month. I felt sorry to share the news about Gamja during everyone’s difficult time, so I’m letting you know now. Gamja will be in my heart forever and ever. I’m grateful to many people who looked at Gamja prettily. I love you Gamja! “

Goo Hye-sun is famous as a dog lover. The actress, who is raising several pets, including dogs and cats, even produced a documentary showing her love for dogs. In addition, Goo Hye-sun’s pets are also familiar to the public since they have appeared on various entertainment shows together with her. The actress expressed her special affection for dogs by donating 20 million won from her exhibition profits and 1 ton of food for abandoned dogs in 2019 after divorcing Ahn Jae-hyun. In addition, the actress even published “You Are My Pet”, which is an essay book about her story of raising pets. Goo Hye-sun, who was having a hard time due to her divorce at that time, described her pets as “my everything”.

Anyone who used to raise or is raising a dog will be able to feel the pain of Goo Hye-sun, who delivered the news of the death of her pet dog that she had kept in her heart for a month.

The dog named “Gamja (Potato)” is a very special dog to Goo Hye-sun. After saying goodbye to Soondae, the dog she had raised for 11 years, last year, Goo Hye-sun continued to witness Gamja leaving her this year. Regarding her “pet loss” syndrome (the pain that one suffers after their pet’s leaving), Goo Hye-sun confessed, “I feel like I’ve lost everything. I’m feeling suffocating because I feel so sorry. It was so painful that I had to overcome it alone.”

Studies have shown that the sadness caused by the death of a pet dog that you spent a long time with is similar to the sadness of the passing of a friend or family member. Dr. Oh Eun-young also said that she also suffered “pet loss” syndrome when her dog, which she had raised for 19 years, died.

Goo Hye-sun must have had a harder time because her love for her pets is extraordinary. Fans are cheering for the actress, hoping that she would quickly overcome this sadness. It’s okay not to become skinnier right now, everyone is still looking forward to seeing Goo Hye-sun on the Red Carpet of the Busan International Film Festival with a bright smile.
