Route Notes From Korean Facebook (24 Oct 2022) At 12 o'clock at night, I was too short of breath to speed up, and my whole body was shaking to go slowly, and I felt like my limbs would get frostbite. It's crazy. It's 5:00 in the morning, I hope the sun rises early. I wanted to cut off my ears, nose, and cheeks that were frozen by the wind. It's 6 o'clock in the morning, and the sun is shining, and the surrounding peaks are all lower than me. It's 8:00 in the morning, the rising sun is hot and the wind is still cold. I couldn't apply sunscreen because I was so distracted that my nose and cheeks were burnt and burnt. At 9:00 in the morning, with 100m to the summit, I was unable to move due to the strong wind and the cold of minus 30 degrees Celsius. I said ‘Let’s endure, let’s endure’ with the eyes of the other members, but it seemed like we would freeze after 10 more minutes. Following the captain walking with great strides. At 10:00 in the morning, three members and two Sherpas finally climbed to the top of Himlung Himal. It was difficult to breathe at an altitude of 7126m, and the voice was not coming out because the throat was also broken. Everywhere I looked, I looked great and was so happy, but I had to stop going down because my body was in pain.
