Personally, I could never eat dog meat, mostly because it is alien and offensive to me, culturally.
A South Korean friend of mine pens a blog called "Ask a Korean." A few years ago he wrote a detailed blog post on the eating of dog meat.
Dog – It’s What’s for Dinner
Dear Korean,
I heard that people eat dog meat in Korea. Is it something special, or do they put the dog meat to any meaty meal?

Dear Sibelius,
The answer is no. Dog-eating is one of the things for which is Korea is notorious, and much of it is distorted or misunderstood. For example, Wikipedia’s page on dog meat consumption in Korea is filled with utter falsehood, likely generated by anti-dog meat crowd in Korea. Hilariously, the Wikipedia post cites to some incredibly dubious sources such as Helsinki Times – clearly an authority in Korean culture. Therefore, the Korean will outline the facts about dog-eating in Korea, and follow it up with the Korean’s own opinion regarding the topic.
The “fact” section will be organized in a Q&A style. Because the Korean is feeling rather generous today, for this topic only the Korean will accept any further question on this topic that he did not address through the comment section.

Q: Do Koreans eat dogs?
A: Yup, they sure do. A good friend of the Korean would not believe him, saying, “I thought it was an untrue and malicious stereotype.” No, it is all true. Koreans eat dogs.
