A 31-year-old medical non-commissioned officer from their brigade also saw the scene and administered first aid to the driver, then helped the emergency services take him to a hospital.
Kim Hak-jae said, “It is a soldier’s duty to save people’s lives,” adding that he is happy the driver is safe and wishes all the best.
