This article is contributed by the STOMP Team.

A taekwondo coach from Korea has earned plaudits from Singaporeans and netizens alike for giving his slippers up to an elderly woman who was barefooted on a local bus during his visit to Singapore.

Choi Dae Ho, a member of the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) Peace Corps had stooped down and offered the old lady his slippers, before bending down to put them on for her.

A photo of the incident was taken by another WTF Peace Corps member and subsequently posted on the Singapore Taekwondo Federation website.

According to the site, Dae Ho had been on a trip to Sentosa during his break from teaching the Singapore National Squad.
