On April 3, a 7.3-magnitude earthquake hit Hualien in Taiwan and was strongly felt in Xiamen. When the earthquake occurred, Xiamen Double Ten Middle School in southern mainland China, very close to Taiwan, quickly organized the evacuation of teachers and students. During the evacuation process, Zhang Zhixun, a student of Class 1, Grade 1, did not forget to help his desk mate who had difficulty in mobility. At the critical moment, Zhang Zhixun picked up his desk mate, carried him downstairs and transferred him to a safe area.

According to Zhang Zhixun, in the usual drill, he also played the role of taking care of the classmate, and when the earthquake happened, he would certainly take responsibility and bring the same desk downstairs. Jang Ji-hoon has repeated this gesture countless times.
