Kim Myung-min visited Nepal for the movie "Himalaya".

According to JK Films, mountain climber Eom Hong-gil escorted the "Himalaya" team in Nepal.

Kim Myung-min stayed there for over a week adjusting to the high level conditions of the 3,700km mountain. Kim Myung-min and Eom Hong-gil returned to Korea on the 3rd and the rest of the team are location hunting.

JK Films told Sports Hanguk, "We plan to crank in beginning November. Filming starts in March when we can start shooting".

"Himalaya" is the true story of mountain climber Eom Hong-gil in 2005 when he risked his life to climb the Himalaya Mountain to collect the bodies of his fellow climbers who didn't make it through the way.
