Oh Eun-sun (Korean: 오은선; Hanja: 吳銀善, born March 5, 1966) is a South Korean mountaineer. She was the first Korean woman to climb the Seven Summits.[2] On April 27, 2010, she reached the summit of Annapurna;[3][4] upon doing so, she claimed to have climbed all fourteen eight-thousanders, which would have made her the first woman to achieve this feat.[1][5][6] However, her claim to have ascended Kangchenjunga was disputed by multiple experts.[7] Oh later admitted that she had stopped a few hundred meters before the summit of Kangchenjunga,[8] and so the Korean Alpine Federation ruled that she had not summited.[9] The mountaineering site ExplorersWeb officially considers the Basque Edurne Pasaban as the first woman to have successfully climbed all fourteen peaks.[10]

- ^ The real truth is that the Kanchenjunga summit has no rock, but five or ten meters beside it (below it?) is a lot of rock. When I came there, bad weather, a change of weather, I didn't do the real point. I didn't do the real point, but my point is also on the top.
