Gwangju Seobu Fire Rescue Team Member Selected as Lifesaver for Second Half of the Year

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] A rescue team member from the Gwangju Seobu Fire Station was selected as a Lifesaver for the second half of this year.

The 3rd team of the 119 Rescue Squad at Seobu Fire Station was recognized for their outstanding efforts in saving lives at disaster sites during an awards ceremony hosted by the Gwangju Metropolitan City Fire Safety Headquarters and was chosen as Lifesavers.

The Lifesaver system was introduced for the first time in July this year to boost morale and pride among rescue team members (teams) who contribute to saving lives at disaster scenes and to encourage active life-saving activities.

In June, they safely rescued a person hanging from a balcony related to a suicide attempt incident in Seo-gu, and they also prevented casualties by saving people in life-threatening situations at various other disaster sites.

Cha Byung-gu, leader of Rescue Team 3, said on the 28th, “We just carried out our duties with one heart, but we are grateful to be awarded the Lifesaver. We will work even harder to protect the lives of citizens in the future.”
