"Looking for the People Who Helped Us at Gangnam Station": A Taiwanese Couple's Story

A Taiwanese couple who visited Korea is desperately searching for some Koreans on social media. What is the reason behind this?

This is the story of Chen Yung-chuan from Taiwan.

He recently posted a message on social media looking for the Korean citizens who helped them.

On the night of June 19, while Chen and his wife were waiting for the subway at the Gangnam Station platform, an intoxicated person reportedly approached them in a threatening manner while shouting.

Terrified, the couple backed their wheelchair away, but the individual continued to follow them. At that moment, a young man stepped in, using his umbrella to block the intoxicated person and protect the couple.

When the same situation continued inside the subway train, this man, along with another citizen, protected the couple again and even helped them report the incident to the police.

The intoxicated person was eventually removed from the train, and the two citizens asked the couple where they were from and even offered an apology on behalf of the person who harassed them.

The couple expressed their gratitude, saying, "Thanks to them, we were safe, and we are returning home with warm memories of Korea."

Netizens have also been sending messages of support, commenting, "I hope they only take home good memories," and "It is a relief that these citizens had the courage to step up."
