Nureongi (누렁이) and Hwangu (황구; 黃狗) are Korean terms meaning "Yellow Dog" used to refer to tannish mongrel or landrace of dog in Korea. These dogs are not formally recognized as a breed or type by any official breed club.
While other kinds of dogs are also farmed and eaten, the Nureongi is the most common dog in Korea to be used in this way. He describes them as "mid-sized, short haired, and yellow furred" and that notes that they "are not normally kept as pets".
