▶ The first shelter under the sky, going to Jangtermok All mountain paths converge on the winding ridge of Jirisan Mountain, Cheonwangbong. Hikers climb Jirisan Mountain, pushing through knee-deep snow and enduring the -20 degree mountain wind. Most of them aim to see the spectacular sunrise at Cheonwangbong Peak, which is said to require three generations of virtue to see. To do so, there is a place they absolutely must pass by. It is the highest shelter in Korea, Jangtermok Shelter, located 1,750m above sea level at the foot of Cheonwangbong Peak. Jangtermok, an oasis of Jirisan Mountain, where over 200 hikers can escape the wind and snow, warm their frozen bodies, and fill their hungry stomachs on weekends. ▶ Jangtermok Guardians, People of Jirisan National Park At Jangtermok Shelter, there are mountain men who are always on standby 24 hours a day to protect hikers and Jirisan Mountain. They are none other than the national park employees whose workplace is at the top of the mountain, closest to the sky. From shelter repairs to cleaning and management, to even providing emergency rescue for hikers, these people are capable of doing everything... In addition to this, their daily schedule is very tight. If it snows, they have to do all the snow removal by hand because there are no machines. After clearing the path and around the shelter with shovels, their whole body is covered in sweat. They are always on edge in preparation for any accident... Life in the snowy country of Jirisan, others say it is romantic, but it is actually no different from living in exile. We will tell you the story of the men of Jangteomok who work hard and sweat at the best workplace under the sky. ▶ Journey to find myself in winter at Jirisan An eleven-year-old girl and a seventy-year-old man, lovers burning in love and a man about to retire at the twilight of his life... Why do these people of all ages, genders, and occupations come to Jirisan? To look back on the self that they had forgotten on earth in nature, to realize that all their worries on earth are fleeting, and to realize once again the preciousness of those who have left... All of this ultimately becomes a moment to recall the self that they had forgotten. The documentary Empathy captures the journey of finding oneself while climbing Jirisan, which resembles the winding road of life. ※ This video is [Documentary Empathy - Jirisan in the snow, going to Jangtermok Shelter] that aired on February 21, 2015. #Jirisan #Cheonwangbong #Shelter ✔ Documentary is KBS KBS Documentary Official Channel 📺 ✔ Subscribe to KBS Documentary ➡️ / @kbsdocumentary The current situation and content may differ slightly depending on the time the video is broadcast.
