[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Park] A teenage boy who jumped from the 7th floor of an apartment miraculously survived.


According to the Wansan Police Station in Jeonju, at around 7:44 PM on the 8th, a resident found A (13), a first-year middle school student, lying and groaning in a flower bed of an apartment in Jeonju, Jeonbuk, and reported it to the police.


119 rescue paramedics who responded to the report provided emergency treatment to A and transported him to the hospital.


A suffered fractures in his arms and back, but fortunately, his life is not in serious danger.


The police stated, "There were no obstacles such as trees that could have acted as a buffer at the fall site, so he fell directly to the ground. It is a miracle that A survived." They added, "Once he recovers his strength and regains psychological stability, we plan to investigate the circumstances of the jump."
