Year of the Dog
개띠 (gae-tti) · one of the 12 animals of the Korean zodiac
Personality
Loyal, fair and protective. You are the friend everyone wants in their corner, and you remember every promise.
💞 In love
The most loyal hero in the zodiac. You protect, you stay and you can smell a fake from a mile away.
Best matches
Harmony triangle: Tiger and Horse. Same harmony triangle in Korean tti gunghap, the classic best-match group: natural teammates who want the same things at the same speed.
Six-harmony partner: Rabbit. One of the six harmony pairs (yukhap): a quiet, lucky bond where each one covers the other's blind spots without making a fuss.
Trickiest matches
Opposite: Dragon. Opposite on the zodiac wheel, so sparks fly (both kinds). It works when neither one tries to turn the other into a copy.
Push-pull: Snake. A wonjin (원진) pair, the push-pull match of Korean tradition: little things can rub the wrong way. Easy fix: say it kindly, say it early.
