Daejeonsan Hiking Challenge: Can You Conquer the Hell Stairs?

Daniel Kim Views  

‘Choi Woosusan’ cast battled Daedunsan’s brutal “Stairway to Hell,” each step testing their limits.

On the 10th, MBC aired Choi Woosusan, and the cast set off on a proper hike up Daedunsan.

They paused to admire tender new leaves and drink in sweeping mountain views, snapping photos along the way. But the steep steps that began right at the trailhead quickly had them out of breath. The higher they climbed the “Stairway to Hell,” the thirstier they became.

Overheated, the group discovered a pristine mountain stream. Jang Dong-min splashed water on his face and doused his head to cool off. When Heo Kyung-hwan spotted a natural spring and asked to wash up, Jang turned it into a playful face-washing challenge.

Drawn by the sound of running water, they crossed paths with hikers descending the trail. Once the uphill resumed, conversation faded. Tackling a stretch of steps that seemed to go on forever, Heo Kyung-hwan laughed, “Feels like walking the stairway to heaven.” Just then, an acorn flag appeared up ahead.
