Korean 'first woman to conquer 14 highest peaks'
KATHMANDU - A South Korean climber has become the first woman to scale 14 of the world's highest mountains. Seoul broadcaster KBS television showed live coverage last night of Oh Eun Sun, 44, reaching the summit of Annapurna in Nepal and affixing a South Korean flag to the peak. It was the final hurdle of a fiercely contested race against a Spanish rival to conquer all 14 Himalayan peaks more than 8000m above sea level.
