Dec 17, 2024
KBS Documentary Insights'Volcano, Human'Part 3 sheds light on Guatemalans, Mayan descendants who settled next to active volcanoes that might explode at any time.
KBS 1TV documentary Insight 'Volcano, Human'The Giant of Fire' that will air at 10 p.m. on the 19th (Thursday) will look into the daily lives of Guatemalans living in 'Parkaya Volcano' and Lake Attilan' made up of volcanic activity. Active volcanoes, which may explode at any time, are always the subject of fear and fear, but they have accepted life with volcanoes as their fate.
Pakaya Volcano is one of Guatemala's most active volcanoes. It is also a representative volcano with the most visitors. Lewis, who set up here, makes a living by introducing Mount Pakaya visitors to volcanoes and helping them tour. Lewis' daughter Harde is only 12, but she used to climb the volcano with her father in the dream of becoming a volcano guide like her father.
Even for Harde, who freely plays with the volcano as a playground, it was a prohibited area where the top of the volcano could never be reached. Lewis warned firmly "I can't see what happens up there," but Harde can't understand such a father. Although it is an active volcano, the reason Lewis is so afraid of Mount Pakaya, which seems safe at first glance due to many tourists' visits, is revealed in the main broadcast.
Lake Attilan, surrounded by San Pedro Volcano, Toliman Volcano and Attilan Volcano, is Lake Caldera formed by the collapse of the volcano. Heremias, who lives next door in the village of Atitlan, Santiago, lives by fishing with needles in the lake in the same way that Mayan ancestors have done. Heremias is "Lake is the mother. It gives us everything. So we respect and live like mothers," he said, paying tribute to Lake Attilan.
Helemias' wife Lola goes to the market and sells the fish she has caught, but it is far from enough to feed and raise her three children. Eventually, Hemias leaves his wife's tears behind and goes to work closer to the volcano. There, Heremias meets Enrique, a 74-year-old adult who is native to the volcano, and learns the attitude of life to live by the volcano's side, not fear. Enrique's wisdom to the younger generation, who accepted his fate to be with a living volcano, can be found in 'Volcano, Human'.
The coexistence with the world's hottest volcano, KBS documentary Insight 'Volcano, Human'Part 3 'The Giant of the Fire Who Can't Sleep' will air on KBS 1TV at 10 p.m. on the 19th (Thursday).
