"Looking for the Lifesaver of My Wife"... The Identity of the Woman Who Performed CPR and Suddenly Left

Woman Who Assisted with CPR in Emergency
Presumed to Be a Police Officer in Her 20s
"I Definitely Want to Express My Thanks"

The police are searching for a resident who saved the life of a woman in cardiac arrest and then suddenly disappeared in Yangsan, Gyeongnam.

On the 20th, Yonhap News reported that the Gyeongnam Provincial Police Agency is looking for a resident who performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a collapsed woman and then vanished.

The incident occurred on the 18th at an apartment in Singi-dong, Yangsan-si, Gyeongnam. Son (60s) was heading to the hospital for his wife's lung disease treatment when his wife lost consciousness due to cardiac arrest at the apartment's first-floor entrance. He was flustered and desperately tried to perform CPR on his wife, but overwhelmed by the unfamiliar situation, he had no choice but to wait for the 119 emergency responders to arrive.

At that moment, a woman who came down the elevator discovered the scene and skillfully attempted CPR on Son's wife. Shortly after, Son's wife's stopped heart began beating again. The emergency responders arrived and provided emergency treatment. Son's wife regained consciousness only after arriving at a nearby hospital.

When the emergency responders asked the woman for her identity, she replied, "I am a police officer," and left the scene. Son's wife is currently receiving treatment in the intensive care unit and is reported to be in stable condition.

Son said, "I was too overwhelmed at the time to say much, but I want to sincerely thank the benefactor who saved my wife's life." He speculated that the benefactor was in their 20s.

A Gyeongnam Provincial Police Agency official said, "We are looking for the police officer who performed this good deed," and urged, "If you are the person involved or a witness, please contact us."
