Seoul police recently helped a lost child of foreign nationality locate her parents, according to its official YouTube channel.
Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency on Monday posted a video of the child's rescue, as part of the ongoing effort to promote its activities. A child was wandering near a police precinct station affiliated with the Gwangjin Police Station in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, on an unspecified date in August.
The station's officers invited her in, but the crying child did not speak Korean. The officers comforted her and took out their phones to use a translator app.
She managed to say, "I'm looking for my parents, but I can't reach them. I'm scared."
The police said the officers managed to track down the child's parents, and reunited her with them.
