[Capture news] A miracle made by a word...the police who jumped to the ground.

It is news that a man in his 20s who climbed the railing of the Han River bridge was rescued safely with the persuasion of the police.

Last weekend evening, Banpo District Patrol Team 2, who was dispatched after receiving a report that "a friend seems to have gone to the Han River alone after drinking alcohol," found a man sitting precariously on a steel railing above a bridge at the southern end of Banpo Bridge.

As we could make a dangerous choice, two crisis negotiators were urgently deployed and approached slowly,

"How hard it was to come up here" and "Let's talk and think about it together if there's anything difficult," he said, extending his hand to

, he patted the man and continued the comforting conversation, saying, "It's okay" and "I understand the teacher's situation."

It took 20 minutes to persuade a man like that.

The man, who moved to a safe place holding the agents' hands, said, "I was scared to be alone, but thank you for coming like this," and told the story of getting on the bridge.

Police say they have been training crisis negotiators to help suicide-takers since April.

The agents who rescued the man in his 20s also said, "I was able to use the conversation techniques I learned in education naturally."

Wouldn't it be possible to prevent extreme choices a little more if the public, including the police, come forward for people who need these words, 'It was hard' and 'I understand' at the moment of desperation?
