울프 / canine

안녕! 나는 울프야. 올해 세 살인데, 솔직히 말하면 사람보다는 강아지 친구들이 훨씬 좋더라고. 새로운 사람을 만나면 "어... 누구세요?" 하면서 살짝 거리감을 두지만, 천천히 다가오면 나도 마음의 문을 열게 돼. 내가 친해지고 나면 "헉, 얘 이렇게 장난꾸러기였어?" 하고 깜짝 놀랄걸!
내가 제일 좋아하는 곳은 망원한강공원이야. 거기서 뛰어다니면 내가 마치 CF 속 강아지가 된 기분이 들어. 강바람이 휘잉~ 불어오면 귀가 펄럭거리는데, 그게 또 묘하게 시원하고 기분 좋거든. 가족들과 산책하거나 뛰어노는 시간이 세상에서 제일 행복해.
그리고 내 친구 쿤이를 소개할게! 쿤이는 정말 배려심이 넘치는 강아지야. 내가 막 신나서 장난을 쳐도 "그래, 울프야~" 하면서 받아주는 친구야. 그래서 쿤이를 못 보면 괜히 보고 싶고, 만나면 꼬리를 부비적거리며 사랑을 표현하고 싶어. 쿤이랑 뛰어놀다가 털썩 누워 쉴 때가 진짜 힐링 타임이야. 나는 꿈에서도 바빠! 꿈속에서 친구들이랑 뛰어노느라 내 꼬리는 자동으로 흔들흔들 모드야. 그때마다 가족들이 "얘 뭐 꿈에서 로또 당첨됐나?" 하고 웃더라니까!
그리고 나만의 아지트도 있어. 하나는 우리 이모의 남자친구 가게인 망원동 루즈도어야. 거긴 가끔 가서 분위기를 즐겨, 그곳에서는 특히 사람들이 나를 아주 좋아하더라고? 또 하나는 집 근처 화곡동 주택커피인데, 거긴 맛있는 냄새가 가득해서 가기만 해도 행복해져. (이모가 날 보면 꼭 간식을 챙겨주셔서 좋아! )
아, 그리고 우리 집에 사람 여자 한 명, 사람 남자 한 명이 같이 살고 있는데, 이 둘이 뭘 자꾸 만들더라고. 알고 보니 음악을 만드는 사람들이었어! 얼마 전에 둘이 뭐 열심히 작업하길래 어깨너머로 봤더니, 글쎄, 나에 관한 노래를 만들고 있었지 뭐야? 완전 감동 받았어. 심지어 그 노래로 쿤이랑 같이 뮤직비디오도 찍었어. 내가 여주인공이었거든! 그런데 여주... 진짜 쉽지 않더라. 카메라 앞에서 포즈 취하고 연기하느라 보통 피곤한 게 아니었어. 하지만 쿤이랑 함께여서 정말 특별한 경험이었어. 어쨌든 나는 이제 공식적으로 스타견! 😎
나랑 망원한강공원이나 주택커피에 가면, 내 비밀 장소들을 너한테 살짝 알려줄게. 근데 간식은 내가 먹어도 되지? 😄
Hi there! I’m Wolf. I’m three years old, and to be honest, I like hanging out with other dogs way more than with people. When I meet someone new, I’m like, “Uh… who are you?” and keep my distance. But if you take your time and approach me gently, I’ll eventually warm up to you. Once we’re friends, you’ll be surprised and say, “Wow, I didn’t know you were such a playful little rascal!”
My favorite place in the whole world is Mangwon Hangang Park. Running around there makes me feel like I’m starring in a commercial for the happiest dog ever. The breeze from the river flaps my ears back, and it’s oddly refreshing and makes me feel so free. Spending time there with my family, going on walks or just playing, is pure happiness for me.
Let me tell you about my best buddy, Koonie! Koonie is the most considerate dog I’ve ever met. Even when I’m being super hyper and playing tricks, Koonie just goes, “Oh, Wolf, you’re at it again,” and rolls with it. When I can’t see Koonie, I start missing him a lot, and when we meet, I can’t help but wag my tail and shower him with affection. My ultimate happy moment is running around with Koonie and then flopping down together to relax.
Even in my dreams, I’m busy! I’m always running and playing with my friends there, and my tail wags on its own while I’m asleep. My family often laughs and says, “What, did Wolf win the lottery in his dream?”
I also have my own little hideouts. One is my aunt’s boyfriend coffee shop, Loose Door in Mangwon. I love going there because the vibe is so cozy, and everyone seems to adore me. Another spot is Jutaek Coffee near my house in Hwagok. It’s full of delicious smells that make me so happy just walking in the door. (Oh, and my aunt always sneaks me some treats when she sees me, which I definitely love!)
Oh, and did I mention the two humans I live with? There’s one woman and one man, and guess what—they make music! Not long ago, they were working on something super intently, so I took a little peek… and turns out, they were making a song about ME! I was so touched. To top it off, they even made a music video for the song, and guess who was the star? That’s right—it was me and Koonie! Being the lead actress was no joke, though. Posing for the camera and acting all day was exhausting, but it was such a special experience. Now I’m officially a star pup! 😎
If you ever join me at Mangwon Hangang Park or Jutaek Coffee, I might share some of my secret spots with you. But, uh… the treats? Those are all mine, okay? 😄
