The driver’s life-saving actions have moved people online in both countries.
It was recently reported by South Korean media outlets that a bus driver in Yongin city, in the Seoul Metropolitan Area, rescued a Chinese international student who fainted on her bus.
Lee Si-young, 54, immediately stopped her vehicle and went to check on the unidentified student.
Lee said the young woman went pale and developed a cold sweat. She also realised the stricken woman was a foreigner because she did not speak Korean. Soon the passenger fell unconsciousness.
The driver sought the permission of other passengers and drove the bus directly to a nearby hospital with an emergency treatment clinic.
