DramaDocumentary
For the first time in the history of Korean Buddhism, nine monks ceased hostility by staying in a tent throughout winter. Inside the cold tent, ninety days of meditation begins with seven strict rules. Crisis comes to the monks who had to endure the tent without a heater, and with only a single set of clothes, and a single meal a day, but never once did they groan.
