[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Bong-ju] A 119 rescue dog saved a man in his 20s who got lost and wandered in the mountains after drinking alcohol.

According to the Busan Fire and Disaster Headquarters on the 28th, around midnight, Mr. A, who got lost on Jangsan in Jwadong, Haeundae-gu, Busan, requested rescue from 119.

Mr. A lost his way while returning home through a mountain path after drinking with friends.

The rescue and emergency team dispatched to Jangsan with 'Chungseong,' a rescue dog belonging to the special rescue unit.

Chungseong and the handler searched the Jangsan valley area and nearby Daecheon Park, and found the exhausted Mr. A near a valley close to Jangsan Sports Park about an hour after the report.

Chungseong, who found Mr. A, is a Belgian Malinois breed and won first place in last year's national rescue dog competition.

The Busan Fire and Disaster Headquarters is training three rescue dogs, including Chungseong and two German Shepherds named 'Youngwoong' and 'Yuri.'
