On the road in front of a large supermarket in Ulsan, an SUV suddenly stopped, blocking the entrance to an alley. Jun Ji-Hoo (33), who discovered this, thought it was strange that the car was not moving and started driving.
He honked his horn, but got no response, so he got out of his car and approached her. When the car stopped, Chung found the driver, a woman in her 50s who suffers from epilepsy, having a seizure.
He immediately called an ambulance and explained the situation. While waiting for rescue, Mr. A's car, which had become difficult to control due to the driver's seizure, suddenly took off and crashed into another car.
As a result, Chung and the other citizens tried to break the car's windows by hitting the backseat window with an umbrella, but failed. After that, Chung tried to break the window with a hammer brought from the owner of a nearby large supermarket.
They broke the glass and succeeded in rescuing Mr. A. Mr. A was taken to the hospital by an ambulance and has now recovered. Mr. Chung works at a sports center and is a life-saving and safety specialist.
"At the time, I had to rescue the patients inside the car and stop the vehicle, but I couldn't think of any way to do it other than breaking the window with a hammer," said Chung.
"The glass was harder to break than we thought, but there were no major problems," he said. "If something similar happens again in the future, we will not hesitate to save lives," he said.
The Ulsan Southern Fire Station awarded Jeong with a plaque of appreciation on the 16th in recognition of his efforts in rescuing citizens during a crisis.
