I'm guessing that there aren't very many dogs in North Korea, and it's not because it's hot there.

Some cultures eat cats.
I am a cat owner and I love my cats very much. However, I am not offended by other people legally eating cats obtained in legal ways.

Legally eating cats obtained in legal ways?
What the hell is this?
Do you use the law of the land to determine what is right and wrong, everywhere always?
Sounds about polar opposite of how I would think that free people go about their lives

Yeah people that claim Chinese restaurants here in America serve cat or dog for that matter. Really has no idea how Restaurant supply chain works, or how any successful restaurant got that way for that matter.
Say a Chinese guy sets up shop in a section that has a high amount of stray cats. How long before he uses up all the supply? He must have a steady reliable supply of cats. Also given the price of pet food, and how slow cats grow. There is no way you can raise cats to full size and sell them in a stir fry to get your money back.
It just doesn't make any sense. I could understand if from time to time a cat happens on the menu. But it's not a reliable source of meat for a restaurant
FWIW Indians look at Americans as vicious evil brutes for eating Cows.
They would think more of us, if we ate a Rat/Cat/Dog turducken.

You would be amazed at how fast cats can reproduce. They are true pests when feral, breeding as soon as they reach sexual maturity at like six months old. And then usually one gets mange, spreads it to the others. And then you have a bunch of the ugliest cats imaginable dragging their swollen bellies around, hissing and spitting and shitting everywhere. Large kittens, not even cats yet dragging pregnant bellies with more demon spawn, and giving you the stink eye from a scabby bald head. Yuck! Bring on the Koreans!
I prefer soylent green, myself. Not sure what it's made of but it's pretty good.

Also on thE subject of cat/dog supply for eating: we eat chickens and cows and pigs the most here in the USA. Wanna guess what their populations run? It's hundreds of millions of chickens...
Whatever you are eating will have to be raised in large numbers, so I bet Korea has more dogs per capita.

Except for fish, which will become extinct at some point in the near future.

South Koreans face heat wave by dining on dog meat
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Some South Koreans are easing the "Dog Days of Summer" by embracing a tradition of eating dog meat to help survive a heat wave gripping the country.
Animal rights activists, meanwhile, packed themselves into wire cages to protest the eating of dogs.
Tuesday is the day South Koreans traditionally eat dog meat and other foods that they believe will help ease the heat by increasing their stamina.
The Yonhap news agency says Seoul is currently undergoing the longest period of time with temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius (95 Fahrenheit) since 1994.
Dog meat restaurants in Seoul say they served more customers than usual on Tuesday.
