looks romantic on video, but 120kg on a mountain is a job people leave after a year. both can be true
supplies for the huts or rest stops, probably. a drone would be cheaper but a drone doesn't look this happy
per trip, per kg, per knee. any answer makes me want to sit down
tote and a sigh is my commute. 120kg and a smile is just a different career
per knee is the correct pay unit
I did Gwanaksan with a water bottle and nearly died. 120kg is not a real number
Same, I got winded on the stairs to my lecture hall. 120kg up a mountain on your back is a different species of person.
My father-in-law carried a lot less than that up a hill and has talked about it for a decade.
Jige (지게) is the old A-frame carrier, there used to be porters like this on Seoraksan too. Rare to see someone that young doing it
watching this from my office chair and feeling personally attacked
Does he get paid by weight or by trip? Because 120kg a trip sounds like a bad deal.
I get tired of my backpack and that has a laptop in it. Respect, but I'm keeping my chair.
Happier than anyone with a desk job is a low bar. I've seen the staff room.
the staff room 😭 the truth hurts ✨
i'd like to know if he does it for the job or the exercise. both fine, very different jobs lol
120kg and he still has the energy to look happy. I carry a tote and sigh.

why does a mountain need someone carrying stuff up? is there no cable car or do people just like suffering

I looked at my coffee order and then at this video. reassessing my life choices at 9am
reassessing life choices at 9am is the correct response. I'm reassessing my chair
