"My body reacted before I could think" — Nurses save collapsed foreigners overseas and on a train [Heartwarming Stories]

According to The Financial News, nurses at a university hospital in Busan Metropolitan City have drawn attention after helping foreign patients who faced emergencies outside the hospital, both at an overseas restaurant and on a domestic train.
On the 13th, Inje University Haeundae Paik Hospital reported that a post had recently appeared on its website from someone who said they had witnessed the good deed of Na-young Lee, a nurse in the hematology-oncology department.
According to the writer, on the 22nd of last month, in front of a restaurant on Kokusaidori Street in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, a foreign man who appeared to be in his 30s or 40s suddenly lost consciousness, suffered convulsions, and collapsed.
While people at the scene were too startled to step in, Lee identified herself as a nurse, rushed over ahead of anyone else, and checked the patient’s level of consciousness.
The writer said Lee remained calm as she provided basic first aid and monitored his vital signs, taking control of the situation until local paramedics arrived and handing the patient over safely. The man was reportedly transported to a hospital after regaining consciousness.
A similar situation unfolded on the 7th of this month aboard an ITX-Maum train traveling from Seoul to Busan Metropolitan City. When a foreign woman collapsed on the train, Kim Na-hyun, a nurse in the emergency intensive care unit at Inje University Haeundae Paik Hospital, immediately stepped in to help.
In a message sent to the hospital, a train crew member wrote, "She rushed over from another car, carefully checking the patient’s pulse, consciousness, and pupillary response, and responded swiftly," adding, "Because the patient was a foreigner and communication was difficult, her professional judgment and actions stood out even more."
Kim said, "The moment I heard the announcement, my body reacted before I could think," and added, "I was nervous, but all I could think about was checking the patient’s condition and making sure she received help."
