Why 13 Years Cycling World Ends On Korea DMZ Border? | Last Vlog

Embark on a journey that spans 13 years, 6 continents, and countless memories as I conclude my incredible world bicycle tour at Korea’s DMZ—a symbol of division, hope, and peace.

My adventure began in the USA on September 1, 2011, and took me across North America, Latin America, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Central and Southeast Asia, and Oceania. Returning home to South Korea, I dreamed of finishing my tour by cycling through North Korea, a dream that remains unfulfilled. Instead, I decided to end my journey with the DMZ Peace Bicycle World Tour, a meaningful ride along the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), a place where history, division, and the hope for unification collide.

This vlog captures the emotional highs and lows of the final leg of my journey:

Facing grueling slopes and military control zones
Navigating the unique blend of peace and tension at the DMZ
Connecting with fellow cyclists and incredible people like CEO Im Mi-ryeo of the DMZ Forest
Reflecting on the symbolism of finishing where the two Koreas meet, yet remain apart
Despite challenges along the way, this tour was a testament to resilience, hope, and the belief that even small steps can pave the way for change. I share my encounters, struggles, and reflections, including lessons from a Pakistani friend who reminded me that progress happens step by step.

As I close this chapter of my life, I am deeply thankful to everyone who supported me on this 13-year journey. My dream of cycling across a unified Korean Peninsula remains alive, and I hope this story inspires others to keep moving forward, no matter how difficult the road may seem.

Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. 🌏🚴‍♂️
