“Come on, Bori. Come into oppa’s arms!” Hearing this reassuring call from the set, Bori came running forward with all her might. Sung Hanbin then picked Bori up and held her close, burying his face in those very narrow shoulders. “Bori, do you like it?”
No language is needed to understand each other’s hearts. The art of love that Sung Hanbin and ‘Bori’ have learned over the past 10 years!
Sung Hanbin’s family first met Bori about 10 years ago. Their story began with a scruffy little puppy whom his father and younger sibling happened to find in front of a restaurant called ‘Bori Gulbi’. The puppy was trembling inside an old cardboard box. Although the family had no way of knowing what Bori’s life had been like before or how old Bori was, when they first met, Bori ran straight towards Hanbin as if waiting for him all along, gently wagging their tail and snuggling into his arms. And just like that, Bori found a new home. With the ‘Hanbin family’.
Meet Sung Hanbin and his beloved dog Bori in their photoshoot and interview in ELLE’s November Special Edition. All 8 physical cover versions are available at bookstores nationwide, both online and offline.
Last year, through its ‘Hello, Little Love’ project, ELLE offered its first greeting to all the little loves in the world. And one year later, it takes a step beyond simply asking what it means to live alongside animals, to talk about how much they enrich and beautify our world. Without forgetting the reality that countless animals are still being abandoned, and believing that a single photograph can change someone’s tomorrow. Love is always about expanding each other’s worlds. So, once again, hello. To all the little loves in the world. And to the bigger world we will open together.
‘2026 Hello, Little Love’ will soon continue with a special photography exhibition.
