"My autistic younger brother had a seizure on the plane, and not a single passenger complained... I am truly grateful" [Heartwarming]

A story has gone viral online about a younger brother with autism spectrum disorder who suddenly suffered a seizure during a flight, but was able to complete the journey safely thanks to the help of the cabin crew and fellow passengers.
Recently, a post titled "To those who were on the February 23 morning Jeju–Gimpo Korean Air flight" was uploaded to the university community Everytime.
According to the poster, identified as A, her younger brother with autism spectrum disorder had been experiencing more frequent seizures and was flying to Seoul with their parents for an EEG test. While he was in the aisle on board, he suddenly had a seizure and collapsed.
Fortunately, thanks to the swift response of the flight attendants and emergency medical staff, he regained consciousness. However, because the seizure had left his body limp, A's mother struggled to support him.
At that moment, a male passenger nearby stepped in. He lifted the collapsed younger brother in his arms in place of A's mother and helped him into his seat.
It was the first time the younger brother had suffered a seizure on a plane, so A's parents were understandably shaken. Yet the help they received from nearby passengers and their kind words brought the parents great comfort.
After landing, the family was also allowed to disembark first, thanks to the consideration of the cabin crew.
A wrote, "My parents said they were so grateful that during takeoff and landing, everyone simply waited and understood without a single harsh word," adding, "I want to express my sincere thanks to everyone who was on that flight."
Online commenters responded, "The world is still worth living in," "May everyone who helped, waited, and showed consideration be blessed," "They are truly beautiful people," "This is the real South Korea," and "Our country is still okay."
