Beloved Giant Panda, Fu Bao, Returns to China After Three Years in South Korea
On April 3rd, 2023, the beloved giant panda, Fu Bao, made a triumphant return to China after spending its entire life in South Korea. This momentous occasion was met with cheers and excitement from netizens, who eagerly awaited the panda's arrival. As the plane carrying Fu Bao touched down at the Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport, the panda's caretaker, Jiange Er, was there to welcome it back home. The panda was then transported to the Wolong Giant Panda Research and Conservation Center in Wenchuan, Sichuan, where it will undergo a 30-day quarantine period before being introduced to its new habitat. This homecoming has been a long time coming for Fu Bao, who was born in South Korea's Everland Zoo in 2020. The panda gained a massive following in South Korea, becoming a beloved national treasure. However, according to the agreement between China and South Korea, Fu Bao was required to return to China before reaching the age of four. The return of Fu Bao has been a hot topic on Chinese social media, with many netizens expressing their excitement and joy at the news. One user wrote, "I'm so happy to see Fu Bao back in China! I can't wait to visit her at the research center." Another user commented, "I've been following Fu Bao's journey for years, and I'm so glad she's finally back home where she belongs."
