A young woman from South Korea got lost in Henan Province while trying to find a friend she met over the Internet.

The woman arrived in Zhengzhou in the early hours of Monday morning. In her heavily accent English, she asked a number of people how to get to Zhumadian, but nobody understood her.

Policeman Liu Bo, who can speak English, talked with the woman and finally helped her board a train to Zhumadian.

The woman took a flight from Seoul to Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, several days ago, and then took a train to Zhengzhou.
