Kian84, the popular webtoon artist and television personality, is set to embark on a remarkable journey in the fourth season of MBC's entertainment program 'Taegyeilju,' which premieres on May 11, 2025. This season promises to be a grand adventure as Kian84, along with fellow travelers Pani Bottle, Lee Si-eon, and Dex, tackle the formidable 'Chamagodo' trail in Nepal, renowned as one of the highest and most rugged mountain paths in the world.

At the production presentation held on May 8, 2025, at MBC Golden Mouse Hall in Sangam-dong, Seoul, Kian84 expressed his emotions about the upcoming season, hinting that it might be his last. "This trip was the most physically demanding I've ever undertaken," Kian84 stated, reflecting on the challenges he faced during filming. He revealed that he typically falls ill for about two weeks after completing the show, but this time, he was unwell for nearly a month, requiring intravenous fluids. "I felt like I might have gotten sick during the filming," he admitted, underscoring the toll the journey took on his health.

Joining Kian84 in this adventure are Pani Bottle, who echoed his sentiments about the physical challenges of the high-altitude filming, and Lee Si-eon, who noted that each day felt precious and filled with joy. "I found myself tearing up unexpectedly," Lee Si-eon shared, highlighting the emotional depth of their experiences.

Kim Ji-woo, the producer, emphasized the strong bonds formed among the cast during this season, suggesting that viewers would witness a more profound connection between them. "It felt like we were all growing together," he said, implying that the emotional narratives would resonate well with the audience.

Kian84 further reflected on his journey, stating, "I believe I’ve achieved a sense of completion with this season." He expressed a desire to leave on a high note, stating, "It's beautiful to leave when the applause is still ringing." His declaration of this being his final season was met with mixed feelings from the production team, who had hoped for more seasons. However, Kian84 was resolute, saying, "I think this is it for me. I’ve poured everything into this journey. If I were to do it again, the audience would be able to tell it was forced."

During the event, Kian84 also shared a heartwarming gesture he made towards the production staff, delivering pizzas and transportation cards to the editing team. He remarked on the hard work of the editors, stating that as he has grown older, he has become more aware of the efforts of others in the production process. "I wanted to help out after seeing how hard they work," he said, highlighting his appreciation for the crew.

Lee Si-eon added a light-hearted note, promising to buy pizza for the production team if the viewership ratings are favorable, showcasing the camaraderie among the cast and crew.

The anticipation for 'Taegyeilju 4' is palpable, especially following the success of the previous seasons. Season 3 recorded an impressive viewership rating of 6.7%. Each season has taken viewers on a unique journey: Season 1 explored South America, Season 2 ventured into India, and Season 3 showcased Africa. This time, the team will tackle the breathtaking landscapes of Nepal, including a trek to Everest.

As the premiere date approaches, excitement builds not only for the stunning visuals and adventurous spirit but also for the emotional stories that will unfold. Kian84's heartfelt comments about his experiences signal that this season will be particularly poignant. He stated, "I feel like I’m leaving behind something beautiful, and it’s hard to let go."
