In the interview, Choi Tae Joon stated, "People were just standing there and taking videos. We're athletes and learned how to swim so we've got the courage (to jump in the lake). Kim Ji Soo added, "I think we jumped in right away since someone's life is on the line." When asked if they weren't cold, he replied, "It was freezing."





In reaction to their courageous act, netizens are sending out much praise and applause, commenting, "They deserve a medal."
