Dozens of elderly residents of a coastal village in Yeongdeok were rescued with the efforts of foreign workers in the situation of massive damage caused by forest fires that began in Uiseong, but Seo Jang-hoon and Lee Soo-geun were also mentioned in the news, so they immediately noticed, saying, `I saw it in the newspaper.'

Originally, it had to expire after three years of visa period and return to its home country, but this incident led to an unlimited visa for Korea. In response, Lee Soo-geun asks "Isn't it impossible to go back to his hometown even if he wants to go back to his hometown because of his visa?" "I was inclined to stay in Korea, but I'm worried because I can't talk to my family hastily."
Asked to explain the situation at the time before counseling, the shipowner said, `There was no emergency evacuation order at the time, but the sudden gust of wind in the emergency waiting situation started to engulf the village and began to isolate", "At a time when manpower was put in to control the fire, the storyteller and righteous man, who were ship owners, eventually moved to the site using private leisure boats to begin rescue efforts."
The righteous man was also scared of fire, but there were many people in the village, and he participated in the rescue thinking that he should not be hurt," he continues with his poor Korean skills.
