I gotta give props to so many plainclothes civilians doing CPR. That compulsory military service is a gift. Here in America, people would just be screaming and gawking.

Breh, it's Korea not Japan

This might not be true though. OP in that tweet said that’s what his friend told him. We don’t know how credible this so-called “friend” is.

this shyt crazy 
It’s not about trick or treating. These are adults. There are adult Halloween parties and South Korea tends to go overboard on that. Plus Covid restrictions have just lifted in South Korea hence the level of people out.All this to trick or treat....

I never understood the appeal of being in large crowds. My anxiety and claustrophobia say hell no
Yes, but not very effective. It depends on the circumstances, for cardiac arrest, you are most likely not being saved but if you do survive, CPR was most likely what saved you.
Will CPR Save Your Life? Probably Not, Study Says
Not only does the general public consider CPR more effective than it really is, they tend to discount the negative effect it can have, the researchers said.

You want equipement, CPR is last measure, something anyone can learn to do effectively, effectively being the key word, it's intended to buy you time until you can get adequate care.

everything I did wrong...worked.
Sad. And Koreas's organized as hell
He is actually sort of right though, CPR isn't effective, at least not in the sense that most people think it is, it's not saving your life 9/10 times, but it will buy you time.
People need only to understand the purpose of CPR, then you will see why one shouldn't expect much from it.
And when people are considering the effectiveness, it's under the assumption that the person is trained in performing it properly, so imagine how bad it is when the average person does it. The average person isn't getting the proper leverage, doesn't understand how much force is actually needed, and they aren't administering oxygen properly.
