Miracle Moment Captured on Bodycam: "Let's Go See Mom! Please Live, Baby!"

At 9:40 PM on August 1, an ambulance sped along the Bukbu Expressway near Jungnang-gu, Seoul, with its siren blaring.

[The contraction intervals are getting a bit closer.]

Inside the ambulance was an emergency pregnant patient at 31 weeks experiencing labor pains and bleeding.

[We will turn on the siren and try to get there within 15 minutes.]

Hearing the urgent sirens, the cars ahead hurriedly cleared the way, but the amniotic sac eventually ruptured, and the baby was born in the ambulance at 31 weeks.

However, born two months premature, the baby failed to breathe properly and could not even cry.

It was a desperate situation where the baby had to be saved within the golden hour.

[Let's get off, officer. We've arrived at the hospital...]

The paramedics clung to the baby, desperately performing CPR all the way from arrival at the hospital to transport into the ward.

[Ah... baby... baby, please live!]

Just when it seemed like the baby was about to cry, it turned blue again, but the crew did not give up until the end.

[Baby, live, live! Now let's go see Mom!]

Finally, the baby let out a faint first cry into the world.

[It's crying, it's crying! Baby, let's go see Mom. Mom is right next to you.]

The baby, who had been admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit, was discharged in good health after about 50 days, and this news became known when the mother posted a message on the Seoul Metropolitan Government bulletin board to express her gratitude to the paramedics.

[Paramedic Lee Si-sung: As we chanted "Baby, live," it felt like our desperate wish reached the child, and I am truly overjoyed.]
