The value of Lee Min Ho in 'DMZ'

Lee Min Ho has gone to extreme experience for one year and six months in DMZ.

In MBC 'DMZ The Wild', which was broadcast on April 3, Actor Lee Min Ho made a documentary as a presenter. In addition to the narration, Lee Min ho, who has been involved in shooting with the staff of photography, has been playing with the production crew for one year and six months and has captured the mysterious and beautiful ecosystem of the DMZ.

It was not the extreme experience that no one forced. Lee Min ho, who participated as a presenter with his unpaid leave, talent donation, was not able to wash well, and the DMZ, which can not solve food properly, was burnt to the enthusiasm to deliver the ecosystem exclusively in the DMZ.

It was also a good idea to eat the prawns, which were frozen in order to observe the wild boar, on the island where the black-tailed gull took possession of the island. To shoot the goat, I waited in the minus 20 degrees. I climbed up and down the mountain trail, approaching 1000m, and focused on shooting. For Lee, the DMZ was "the worst shooting spot I met in Korea."

After the efforts of Lee Min ho, the DMZ's ecosystem in the camera was more than we expected. There was a rule for them in the untouched DMZ ecosystem. Although it was not able to reach human touch and boasted beautiful scenery, the animals living in the DMZ were fighting each other. The wild boar, which became the top predator, eaten its own people, and ate poisonous snakes. The elk was often found as a cruel body after the survival competition.

Prologue, but the diverse ecosystem resources of the DMZ made the viewers' eyes flicker. As a presenter, Lee Min ho experienced the ecosystem in the DMZ and enjoyed the fun of watching documentaries all the time through easy-to-understand stories. The visual reminiscent of Lee Min Ho's pictorial in the DMZ was another fun to see 'DMZ the Wild'.

Lee Min Ho's struggle to always be treated to the best of the best places was the point of watching the DMZ The Wild. Lee Min Ho, who was living in the DMZ and breathed with the animals, was not only the narrator but also the filmmaker.

What is the ecosystem of the DMZ for a year and a half that Lee Min ho will deliver? What are the laws of the ecosystem hidden in the uncharted land demilitarized zone that human beings cannot reach? I was surprised at the mystery of the DMZ ecosystem that I did not know and I met with Lee Min ho. With the meaningful extreme experience of Lee Min Ho's interest in the ecosystem story of the jewel-like DMZ will surely be conveyed to viewers.

Lee Min Ho shares his intense 2 years experience at the DMZ

On April 3, MBC aired a special documentary titled “DMZ The Wild” for which Lee Min Ho not only provided the narration, but also took an active part in filming.

Lee Min Ho had a rough time at the DMZ. He explained, “The first thought that came to my mind was, ‘Why did I agree to do this?’ Something is not right,” and added, “I thought I would be able to come across new things at the DMZ, but what I came across were mines.”


On one occasion, he had to stay up all night to take pictures of mountain goats while the weather was at a freezing temperature of minus 20 degrees celsius. Another time, he walked up and down a steep mountain path that turned out to be a whole kilometer high. He narrated, “Our soldiers climb up and down this place several times a day,” and at the site, he groaned, “My thighs are burning.” He then continued to narrate, “DMZ is the worst filming site in Korea. I think I’ve climbed enough mountains to last a lifetime during the past year.”


In the beginning, Lee Min Ho was excited. “For about five minutes, I was running around because everything was so new. But after getting to know the place, it got really tiring.” Showing his curiosity, he investigated the biggest predators of the DMZ, boars, examined the carcass of an elk, and touched a snake.


At the end of the documentary, he revealed the insight he had gained through his experience at the DMZ. He stated, “There is a place like this a few hours away from Seoul. Even though I’m Korean, I didn’t know much about this place. We are still at war.”

It was revealed that Lee Min Ho decided to participate in this documentary in order to do something meaningful before his impending military enlistment. He and the documentary’s staff spent a total of 700 days at the DMZ.

Kudos to Lee Min Ho for making it through such difficult conditions for almost two years!

'DMZ' Lee Min Ho, a genuine man full of genius

In the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone), Lee Min ho, who spent 700 days in the DMZ, was reborn as a real man.

On March 3, MBC broadcasted the prologue of the documentary DMZ, The Wild, from UHD. 'DMZ, The Wild' is a natural documentary that tells the wild world of the DMZ, an unknown world that has not allowed human access for more than half a century. The filmmaker who made 'Tears of the Amazon' and 'The Tears of the South Pole' filmed, and Lee Min ho became the presenter (the role of delivering the key information at the documentary scene). The shooting period was one year and five months, and took more than 700 days.

On this day, the prologue focused on Lee Min Ho 's wild professional growth story. The filming in the DMZ was not recorded. It was a struggle between cold and hunger, and there was a real reality behind a beautiful ecosystem. Lee Min ho said, "The first thought was 'Why did you say this (DMZ documentary)?' He said, "I thought I could experience something different and new things in the DMZ
".

On the first day of shooting, Lee Min ho waited for the boar in the cold of minus 20 degrees. He said, "It is sad but delicious," he said. At the end of 8 hours, Lee Min ho and the production team were able to meet the boar. I faced a boar in front of 5M, and the production team said, "Lee Min-ho won the staring contest with a boar." But Lee Min ho was frightened.

In addition, Lee Min-ho, who was trembling at the sight of ants, grew more and more accustomed to the wilderness over time. I saw the excretion and saw what kind of animal it was, and sniffed it by hand. In addition, Lee Min ho has been working with the production team to shoot the goat. For the goat I met in 20 hours, Lee Min ho said, "Visual is my style."

There was a funny thing in a crow flock of black-tailed gulls. Lee Min ho had to speak in a crowd of black - tailed gulls. But I forgot about the ambivalence in the cries of the gulls and got angry. Moreover, the bird dirt was hit Lee Min ho and he said, "It does not look like I'm handsome." Also, Lee Min ho recalls the time, saying, "The sound of crying is still alive, so it seems to be a mental illness."

Lee Min ho also faced the pain of division in the DMZ. Lee Min ho was wearing uniforms and climbing 1,000 meters of mountain trails. "I think my thighs are going to tear," he said. In his narration, Lee Min-ho expressed his respect, saying, "Our soldiers go up and down this place dozens of times a day."

Lee Min ho said of the DMZ, "I feel the fear of a situation before the occurrence of peace than peace." Especially, there were many elk sacrificed in this situation. Lee felt shock and sadness together. The most shocking of Lee Min Ho was the depredation of wild boar. "I think I was more crueler than anything I've seen in my life," he said.

Lee Min ho said, "I was surprised and guilty that there was such nature in the fire and Seoul 1-2 hours away." I am a Korean and I did not know such a place in Korea. It is said that the country is in the process. "

Lee Min ho appeared in this documentary as a no guarantee. When I look at the prologue, I feel what he wants to do with the documentary he had taken over this long time. The most beautiful and sad place in Korea. I want to convey the reality of such a DMZ and hope that I wish to work hard to preserve it.

'DMZ, The Wild' The trilogy will be broadcast on June 5th.

Green Warriors: Lee Min Ho follows in the footsteps of Leonardo Di Caprio


South Korean Actor Lee Min Ho and Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio have more in common that you think.

They are both classy, choosy about the movies they undertake, and are extremely quiet about their private lives. But that’s not all they have in common.

The stars of The Revenant and City Hunter are green warriors—environment lovers who are ambitious about leaving God’s green earth in topnotch condition for generations to come.

While Leonardo DiCaprio recently invested in Love The Wild, Hallyu star Lee Min-ho broke the record for being the first actor to expose the mysterious and heavily guarded demilitarized zone to the rest of the world.

Fret not, the actor isn’t revealing any military secrets. Instead, his timely intervention has resulted in exposing a greater threat that could lead to the destruction of several lives.

Lee Min-ho, in his new fangled MBC documentary DMZ: The Wild, sheds light on the endangered wildlife species that needs the support of mankind. This wildlife populace exists on the border between North Korea and South Korea.

Unlike most countries, this border isn’t just a line. It’s a strip of land that is 2.5-mile wide on average—hence the name DMZ. The DMZ is a silent stretch of land, which no human is allowed to trespass. It is the line of division between North Korea and South Korea from the estuary of the Imjin River, which stretches 160 miles (248 km) to the Kosung Myeonghori.

The area boasts endangered wildlife species. Lee Min-ho, in his documentary, aims to educate people by showcasing the beauty of the region and the need for its preservation.

It’s worth noting that Lee Min-ho’s DMZ: The Wild is more than just a documentary. It’s a life lesson and shows the art of survival—just like DiCaprio’s The RevenantDMZ: The Wild teaches how mankind and wildlife can co-exist—a concept which DiCaprio, too, has been promoting for a very long time.

Director Kim Jin-man and the crew of Tears of the Amazon as well as Lee Min-ho went into this land where the painful human history and unknown wildlife co-exists.

Lee Min Ho has camped out in a below-20°F weather and seen endangered species like the otters, yellow snakes, seals, and wildcats during his trips to the DMZ.

“Lee Min Ho found time to meet with the production team and visit the DMZ in the midst of busy schedule,” his agency said. Lee Min-ho has devoted almost a year and a half for this project— from October 2015 to March 2017.

"Why am I here?" Lee Min-ho experiences the DMZ

Actor Lee Min-ho set out to research the ecology in the demilitarized zone (DMZ). The experience was worth it.

The MBC foundation anniversary special documentary "DMZ The Wild" is presented by Lee Min-ho. Not only does he present the documentary, but he tagged along with the staff to research the DMZ.

Lee Min-ho ate frozen Kimbab and drank frozen water. He then staked out for 6 hours before running into a wild pig. They were 5 meters away from it but Lee Min-ho managed to scare it as it ran away as soon as their eyes locked.

However, the harsh conditions of the DMZ made Lee Min-ho feel regret about volunteering to go there. He thought he'd be experiencing new things and finding new species but the most common thing he found were landmines.

Lee Min-ho shook with cold in the minus 20 degrees Celsius weather and climbed a 1,000 meter mountain. Through his narration, he said, "The soldiers here climb up and down this mountain all the time" but in reality he felt his legs were going to burst. He narrated, "The DMZ is the worst place to make a documentary".

About the DMZ, Lee Min-ho said, "For about 5 minutes, I was excited and ran about. But the reality of the DMZ was too harsh. The sound of the black-tailed gulls nearly gave me a mental illness. However, he did get to meet the wild boar which is the greatest predator in the DMZ, and even met an elk as well as touched a snake.

Lee Min-ho said, "I think I've done enough hiking for the rest of my life. Out of the 24 hours there, having something warm enter my body was the best time".

"It's only 1 or 2 hours away from Seoul. Although I am a Korean, I didn't know this kind of a place existed. We are still at war".

Lee Min-ho is joining the army and decided to do something meaningful. He camped out with the staff and crew for almost 700 days for this documentary.

Lee Min Ho gets attacked by birds while filming documentary 'DMZ, The Wild'



Following his DMZ experience, actor Lee Min Ho revealed another traumatic event he faced while filming for MBC's documentary 'The Wild.'

Broadcasted on April 3, Lee Min Ho participated as the presenter of the special documentary regarding the DMZ.  Surrounded by a flock of birds, the creatures landed a surprise attack on the star and even defecated on him.  "Guess my good looks aren't enough to repel them after all" joked Lee Min Ho.

Not only that, he was also ambushed by a massive army of seagulls.  Lee Min Ho responded, "I can still clearly hear the seagulls' terrifying cries, I think I'm going mad."  He explained, "It must have been tough even for the baby seagulls. They probably perceived us humans as unwelcomed visitors."

Netizens commented, "It's the birds' fault," "Bird excrement is considered good luck," "It must've been quite an experience, didn't know such a place existed in Korea," "It's supposed to be a documentary on nature and it seems Lee Min Ho appears in it most of the time."
