Restaurant owner saves his patron's life with his quick thinking

Buzz
A restaurant owner has caught the attention of the media for his quick thinking to save a patron's life. 


YTN reported that this past July 12, a man suddenly lost consciousness and collapsed in the middle of a transaction at the front counter. Song, the restaurant owner, shocked that his customer suddenly collapsed, immediately ran over to check on his condition. Upon finding out that the man was still alive, Song began administering first aid on him. 


Song told YTN, "I was handing over change but when he didn't accept it, I looked up at his face; that's when he suddenly fell over. I was so shocked at first but I thought that I should administer first aid on him right away, so I attempted CPR on him. It was my first time trying CPR on someone. I continued to administer first aid while talking to emergency services at the same time to make sure I was doing things right." 


Song added, "Anyone would have done what I did in that situation so it's a bit embarrassing that I'm getting this attention," laughing sheepishly.

Thanks to Song's efforts, the man's life was saved and he was immediately transferred to the hospital. Later, the man reportedly returned to Song's restaurant to express thanks for saving his life. 


Song sounds like a kindhearted soul!
