'National Wolf' Wolgu's capturing veterinarian has revealed the behind-the-scenes details of the capture for the first time.

'You Quiz on the Block,' broadcast on the 29th on tvN, featured veterinarian Jin Se-rim, who rescued Wolgu, revealing the details of the massive nine-day operation.

'On this day, Yoo Jae-suk said, "Various memes circulated regarding Wolgu's return. There was even a meme about me and Wolgu sitting together hosting 'You Quiz.' I thought I should invite someone to host, and then the veterinarian who shot Wolgu with a tranquilizer dart appeared," introducing veterinarian Jin Se-rim of the National Institute of Ecology.

'Jin Se-rim recalled the situation, saying, "After news of Wolgu's escape spread, veterinarians from zoos across the country came. I was also seeing patients at the time. I thought I should finish this consultation, pack my bags, and go, so I only took five pairs of underwear and left immediately."

'He added, "Since it is rare to shoot tranquilizer darts over long distances, veterinarians discussed extensively. They detailed everything from which anesthetic drugs to use, what dosage to administer, transport methods, IV lines, to securing the airway."

'He continued, "Although I was the one who shot the tranquilizer dart and hit Wolgu, everyone had their specific role throughout the process. A wildlife capture expert instructed us on how to walk, which areas were safe to step on, and which were not."

'Meanwhile, Jin Se-rim expressed frustration over confusion during the capture process caused by AI-manipulated fake photos. He stated, "The National Fire Agency, police, military, and Geumgangcheong all came to save Wolgu, but due to the fake photos, over 240 personnel were mobilized, leaving me feeling empty. I wonder if we could have caught him faster if we hadn't moved at that time."
